Getting Started with Cars
What got you into cars: For as long as I can remember, I’ve always been surrounded by them. As a child, it was diecast models; as a teenager, it was R/C cars. As I grew older, my passion and toys grew proportionally. Today, I not only tinker with cars in my free time but also collect them and race for two teams in the UAE.
Unique Features of the Porsche 911
What’s unique about your car: First things first, my Porsche 911 is one of the first five models that came into the country as a 2017 model in April. It features an overboost function (something like a legal NOS) and offers a phenomenal launch control system that can be used repeatedly. Trust me, hitting 100 km/h from a standstill in 2.5 seconds is absolutely addictive!

Future Upgrades
What upgrades do you have in the pipeline: While the car is already equipped with many features such as LED lights, carbon ceramic brakes, and larger turbos, it’s difficult not to want to upgrade it further. Currently, I’ve just received my Moshammer aero rear wing from Germany and am eyeing a titanium exhaust and an improved air intake system for the coming months. An ECU remap and a fresh set of sticky NITTO tires are also on the list.
Dream Car
Name one car you’d swap yours for: My Porsche 911 Turbo S honestly is my favorite, but if I absolutely had to pick, I’d be happy to add the Pagani Huayra to my collection.
