I live in North Hampton and have done business with those guys! I saw the car around town once before, but I don't know who owns it. If anyone is interested, let me know and I'll check it out. And I thought I had the best TT in town!

That would be a beast in real life, always in the right gear and perfect launches every time...........

I wonder how much lower the top speed is due to torque convertor losses............

Probably not a huge difference in top end MPH. Most people would never even know the difference. How often does a regular Porsche TT come anywhere near the maximum MPH? My guess would be that fewer than 5% of Porsche owners ever see speeds even above 150mph.

I have been there. It's right off 101 at the Route 27 exit. I don't remember seeing too many exotics though, mostly classic American and European cars.

Oh!! The horror!!! TIP !!!???!!?!?! We are in a world of trouble boys. Porsche sees that sales of their cars especially cabs are tip. Its only a matter of time that Porsche really softens and starts swaying away from sports car and starts making more of a GT.
