Where do you get these #s?

I don't think the X50 has better 0 - 60 than non X50.

I clocked 3.875 in my 2001 non x50 - car had a chip and a passenger.

I have three things to say about 0-60: driver, driver & driver.
PS: Temp, humidity, surface, etc.

You have to see the pic in the magazine to see the size of the side scoops - I don't like them.

For the 996 Turbo --> Car and Driver September 2000 issue...0-60 in 3.9 sec, 0-100 in 8.9 sec.

For the 996 Turbo with X50 --> Motor Trend October 2003 issue...0-60 3.7 sec., quarter mile in 11.9 at 119.9 mph.

The Rennteam pic IS a photoshop. Geez guys, is everyone asleep?

These pics have been around for quite some time, and I seriously doubt the 997 Turbo is going to look like the TechArt monster in the first pic. Relax.

More news from Porsche is just around the corner.
