New 2010 Porsche Turbo driven

Well said Tom.

My problem is that I like them alll!!

I may have been a mug to buy a new Gen 1 Turbo but I was a very happy mug and I still grin every time I think about what it is like to press the go pedal on a Turbo
 
Sorry to butt in, guys, but Bob could you send me an e-mail please?

I have something you may be interested in.

Thanks,

Clive

the new Turbo only costs £6k more to produce than a Boxster

Well 'someone' has to pay off Porsche's debts; looks like new Turbo owners are leading the way [:D][:D][:D] Like a master magician they distract you with 'ooos and ahhhs' with one hand whilst they pick your pocket with the other [;)]

I am dying to test drive one so that I can compare to my original 997.1 stock Turbo and also to my current 997.1 modified Turbo.  I am sure my OPC will oblidge when they get a demo car in.

Can I just ask 997.2 Carrera owners - how often do you use launch control in everyday situations?  I can't see there being that many occurances of traffic lights on 60mph roads where you are at the front of the queue...  I use most of my acceleration when overtaking people and I don't ever need to change gears during the manoeuvre so having PDK wouldn't really save me any time.
I've used Launch about 4 times since I've had it (just over a year). It is a party piece IMO, as the acceleration you can get from a standstill in S/S+ is impressive enough!
 
I think this guy likes it![8D]
