You would be surprised... We dynoed an X51 motor(was in a cayman s) and it put down 323 to the ground... new 3.8 997.2 motor puts down 345... I was surprised too. Your club coupe is a pretty slick car though... 1 of 50, right?

No problem, the 7 series is the wifes, she likes speed too, which is why she is getting the continental GT. I am sure at some point I'll start looking again, but I am thinking at some point I'll get a twin turbo kit for the Gallardo. Hard to beat a car that does the 1/4 in under 10 secs. LOL I'll always have a Porsche though, have owned one since the early 70's

I guess the thought of raising twin four year olds and driving a 7 series BMW's diverted my attention enough to think of this lifestyle which is different than mine.

I do understand why you would keep those others cars as they are beautiful vehicles .

CPB... you said:

Meeee tooooooo. For sure. Good call. I LOVE the S5. Possibly holding out on the RS though.

Beautiful car. Get a Milltek exhaust. I had that engine in an S4, and it was literally the best sounding car I've ever heard. Ever. Ferraris aren't even as good in my ear's scorecard.

Thanks, so great to be driving a V8 again. You're right, what a great sounding motor.
