If you couldn't tell by my Kinja handle, I'm one of the newest Opponauts. As in, I just got posting privilages about 45 minutes ago. And if you couldn't tell by the title of this post, I'm doing an AMA.

So, ask me anything, people of Oppo! Have a sweet McLaren P1 (and possibly also some answers) for your time:

My name's Aaron Paul, but I'm not the actor. My parents are big Breaking Bad fans, and when I was born, they basically said, "Hey, let's name him Aaron, since our last name is Paul!"

(EDIT: I may have made that bit up...)

I don't drive anything at the moment. My first car will probably (hopefully) be some kind of old Bimmer or Merc.

Yes.

No, I'm not, unfortunately. My real name is actually Aaron Paul, though.

Are you Aaron Paul? Is your name Aaron Paul? On your driver's license, which I assume you have, does it say your name is Aaron Paul? Does your birth certificate say your name is Aaron Paul?

Care to give a real answer? I, along with some other oppos, organize meets once in a while, and if you're in the PA/NY/NJ area, that would mean you may in fact want to let me know, so I can add you to the list.

It's okay to give a general region even if you don't want to be specific. southwest, CA, new england, Florida... something!

Why have an AMA if you aren't going to answer anything!

As a car, though, I'm not a huge fan of that era of GT. I do quite like the new one, however.

You've got plenty of time, shoot me an email and I'll add you to the list. When I get around to organizing the next one in a month or two you can see how it works out. It's really just an afternoon, and there are a bunch of NYC oppos that you can meet up with for a ride out, or to wherever we'll be going.

April may be the first meet up in CT, unless I feel like doing a birthday meet for myself (unlikely). Caffeine and Carburetors will have it's schedule posted hopefully soon, I'm probably going to base the first meet off of that, and then have a meet in Bethlehem in the middle of the summer, and a final meet at the Hawks Nest in Northern NJ, out of tradition in November. NYC Oppos go to all of those meets, so don't discredit it too quickly, I'm sure either Mathias or Aaron wouldn't mind meeting up. There are numerous other NYC oppos as well...

Which one of you Oppos has the V12 Jag in NYC?

Ah nice, I did the Jag/Land Rover booth this year so I got some up close and personal time with the Fs. I can only get my arm under the car, much like my Z, so it was hard to wire it up.

Idk, I probably won't be able to go to any of the meets, unless there is one actually in NYC, which I doubt.

As for the Jag owner, I don't remember his name, but I think he's in Long Island. Not sure.

I know he's right in Manhattan.

If you want a meet in NYC, I can see what kind of places there are to meet in. Email me and Ill keep you posted, you can even suggest locations if you want.

If someone gave you the choice of having a Ferrari 512TR or F430 6MT for free which one would you take?

Aaron Paul: Oppo's Resident Fake British Actor > Manuél Ferrari 01/31/2015 at 20:00

I'd have the F430. I prefer newer cars to classics. Plus, it's got a stick.

Manuél Ferrari > Aaron Paul: Oppo's Resident Fake British Actor 01/31/2015 at 20:03

0

I feel ya

The F430 would be much more usable. You could literally DD it if you wanted to. And while dogleg 5 speeds are super cool the 6MT in the F430 would be better in the modern world.

The 512TR is going up in value so it's the better financial decision. But the F430 would have better ergonomics and be more usable.
