once a LEADER in race car technology; now watches from the sidelines as ferraris leads the pack. it's sad to see, cause i have been a fan since childhood. just HOPING nxt gen Turbo will again take the LEAD ("wet" sump on a TURBO!!!!)

There is something I notice with the Dfi normally aspirated car . The response is so immediate that it leaps out with no hesitation. It's quite incredible. My previous 997S was seamless but not like this. My M3 is not like this either . If some of that responsiveness in carried into the new 997tt it woild be nice . The problem is that with the Turbos Porsche had better improve them as well. The impoved difference after Evoms modified the stock Turbos shows it can be done .. but it was NOT done by Porsche .

The Tuners will have their work cut out for them with this new car but I do think there is potential --I just would have liked to see more about the engine goals of the new car rather than the marketing version of the car's beauty .

At 150K or so it has to have it all to make the grade.
