I bought a Porsche for handling... not straight line performance... as all N/A Porsche C2 or C4 owners should have

This is an open forum.

It is entertaining, informative and interesting.

It, at least I thought, a place where members could voice their opinions, contradictory opinions, experience, knowledge, ideas and insight without the threat of what should be.

Stating your opinion is wonderful.

To state your opinion is "What should be", maybe taken as disrespectful.

My Golf R with bolt ons and a tune beats my Porsche, as did my SRT8 Jeep (The average Golf R, Evo, 335 ect.. turbo car with supporting mods are running 3.8-4.1 0-60 Times these days).... Not "intending" to be rude, but these aren't fast cars


However...Will my Porsche out corner/ handle and beat my R around a track... YES




*My "Opinion" is whoever bought an N/A Porsche (Non GT3) to have a fast car in a straight line bought the wrong car

In a straight line? NO... on the track? Depends who is driving.

My 2007 Jaguar Super V8 (2 tons, supercharged, long wheel base) will stomp my 996 of the line, easily. But nothing handles like my 996.
