AutoWeek loves the 2009 Carerra.
Mr. B

 

What other major magazine has reviewed this car? or newspaper?

auto week is usually one of if not the first. You have to subscribe. I just got mine today.

 

Is Autoweek for sale anywhere? I looked for it (and I'm not making this up) at three Border's, two Barnes and Noble, three supermarkets, two newsstands, and two pharmacies. I can't find a copy anywhere.

 

I believe you should have no problem finding the article online...

Thanks - I saw that this morning. I was willing to pay to get it earlier, but oh well.

In any case, I was hoping for an actual review. This is just a very brief preview with regurgitated press pack material. I'm looking forward to some real in-depth instrumented tests!

 

Standard Autoweek stuff...it's a very rare day when any Autoweek review exceeds two pages, including pics.

 

I think AW has a per issue budget of about $50. Sometimes (not this time) I wonder if they actually even drove the car or if they just regurgitated the press pack....

 

Auto Week loves most cars. Not exactly news.

 

thanks for posting-great article. the new 997 is one hell of a ride!

 

I am not a die hard p-car fanboi, but a fanboi none the less and was shocked with the 0-60 times on the cars with the PDK transmission. Porsche is one of the few manufacturers that seem to improve their cars in a fashion I like, most other manufacturers get heavier, slower and add cup holders.
