CAR Magazine drives new Turbo
#12
I have manual in all my P-cars and was thinking to always have a shifter in my sportscars. However if I buy another turbo I almost certainly will get the PDK. Running against a GT-R with e-gear and launch control you almost have no chance. You will need several launches to not either squeal the tires or almost stall the car. Getting a perfect launch down is not that easy, doing it consistently is very hard. I think the turbo is GT enough for e-gear and has enough power to be still intriguing when you step on it. The worst is the sound, sounds like a friggin' Prius inside, hands down the worst sounding P-car. Mine by chance hates aftermarket exhaust, dreaded CEL. Car is so friggin' quiet my wife and I were trying to locate a wind noise on our way down to Florida
Do you know how much power I would have to add to my 997TT shifter to be able to launch the car with 3.1 seconds??? That is just amazing.

A91.
M64 is now only reserved for the GT3 and possibly still the 997.2 GT2.
This really pisses me off.

Im sure it's a superb allround supercar. But for me it's just the comfortable choice of a wealthy person who wants to travel fast without too much excitement. I can't get rid of the feeling that a Turbo is kinda dull. The GT3 would be the obvious choice for me.
