cmelb is infamous around these parts
Not saying that the 997.2 is a better car, just stating the fact that either it be the 997.2 or 991 NA cars are dramiltcallty effected by weight when looking at times of 0-60, even at sea level I can feel my car which is 997.2 4s pdk sluggish at take off or accelerating with a passenger on board.

When with other cars I have driven, the extra weight of having a extra person on board the time of 0-60 isn't greatly effected or even noticeable. Could this this be the result of torque the engine puts out.

Most likely - I bet at >4K rpm this affect may not be well pronounced ...
