"Like the Veyron". That's high praise.

I really like those Jay Leno's Garage vids, I don't think he's particularly funny on tv but his car videos are awesome. He is a true, down to earth, enthusiast.

Seriously impressive, great review!

Interesting, the coefficient of drag is 0.27 (wow)... I think 997 Turbo is around 0.30-0.31 range... that's almost as low as the Prius at 0.26.

Enjoyed that video. Still have a hard time with these manumatic transmissions thingys. Double clutch or not, I'd rather gate shift than flappy paddle through the gears. Not sayin' I would turn the keys down to a Veyron but...
