New TT, 0-60 in 3 seconds. Freaking unbelievable.

"Some of know what these cars can do"? Really? What's your background with Porsche? I have been with Porsche for fifteen years, go to the factory annually, was a member of the national advisory board in 1999 and 2003, have personally gone on five Euro deliverys, two grand tours, but clearly you purchasing a Turbo gives you knowledge far beyond my shallow, feeble knowledge of the marque.
And as far as my knowledge of tuning a Turbo a close friend of mine owns Accumoto and is the distributor for APR. We have tuned about a dozen or so of my clients Turbos. Yeah, your right. Apparently I have no idea what I am talking about...

I think its a riot, when a F car does the sixty in times like that people are like "OmG that's soooooooooo fasstt! So quick! " "the KING of cars!" " I can't believe it!! " I must rape and pillage for that car!!"
But when Porsche does it: it's a couple of Star Trek nerds clapping in the background.
Let me let you in on a secret: The Porsche 997 Turbo will DESTROY your Ferrari and do it with HONDA Civic reliabilty. OH and btw, after a 1m miles, you can turn it into a Blender for year to make Margaritas; then back into a Porsche.
Do THAT with your Ferrari.
Humph!

Lets face it, it's hardly surprising that a 500+ HP lightweight car with PDK that has been refined and improved upon since the 60's can achieve silly numbers.
As for your clame that people hype Ferrari's more than Porsche despite the Porsche being quicker I think it has more to do with the fact that Ferrari offer more of a visceral driving experience in regards to looks, sounds and exclusivity.
