Visit to Dubai and Abu Dhabi - PP Performance
I just came back from a holiday in the UAE. Great place for motorheads 
Apart from the standard tourist stuff, I visited PP-Performance in Abu Dhabi.
Jimmy is a great guy - we drove his tuned/LTH/throttle bodies/etc C63. That thing is a real beast.
If any of You are going to be in Abu Dhabi, I strongly suggest You pay those guys a visit. But remember to take a taxi because it's almost impossible to find their garage in the industrial district
I also visited the F1 Yas Race Track in Abu Dhabi.
I parked my rent car on the P1 level but by accident took the elevator down to P2 and found this:
I've seen some crazy rides there like Fab Design SLS with a gigantic wing or Mansory 599 Stallone but haven't taken any pictures.
But I do have two exotics
ASMA S65 AMG and CLS 65 AMG

I used to work in our office in Dubai, and just pulling into our parking garage in the building was something else.
We had one guy in the office who drove a Peugeot for the first 6 months after he moved to Dubai.....in fact, he got teased about driving a French car so much that he sold it shortly thereafter and bought himself a BMW.
The parking garage at work was pretty much full of BMWs, Mercedes, Porsche and a few exotics (Aston Martins and Ferraris, mostly).
Of course, when you're not paying any income tax, well, it's not hard to get caught up in the UAE lifestyle and buy an expensive car.
The speed cameras everywhere didn't make it easy to open any car up too much though.

I visited Dubai last year and one night decided to sit outside for dinner just to watch cars drive by. Lots of BMWs, Mercedes, and Porsches. Since it was the weekend there were also a lot of exotics out, but the best car we saw was a Veyron. I've never seen one driving around in the public till that night in Dubai
