Max by any method: see below

Hi Buddy,

Yes it is.

I guess that makes the pic a collector's item now.

I bet...And, it can probably make it through the day in solid form, ready to do it again the next.

It's about damned time to update that thing; what's it been, 15 years?... Hope it looks as sweet as the concept teases. It's going to be an interesting next couple of yrs with an new NSX and Lexus sports car hitting the scene, new 997TT, GT3, etc...

Ok, ok, I've got to weigh on my wimpy speed.....148mph on the long straight at Watkins Glen just before I stood on the brakes to go in to Turn 1.......better than sex. Can't imagine some of the speeds posted here. Even on the NJ Turnpike, there's little chance to reach some of these speeds without some Grandma sitting in the left lane slowing you down.
