That car looks like it's parked. I'd be afraid to do that. Lol.

As a technical marvel over the CGT, to me the CGT was and still is the pinnacle of Porsche super cars. This hybrid green kick going on in Europe infecting all motor sports is making me ill... righteous liberals destroying every last bastion of raw performance and freedom.... Like race cars contribute significantly to global warming...lol. Rant off. Thanks for listening.

Best looking of the hypercars, F/Mc/P, from the big three and my top pick.

i'd order mine dark, dark gray, red seats with the weissach package with gloss black bbs y-spoke wheels. Game over.

just incredible

I have mixed feelings as well. One of the greatest cars made, but some sort of degradation in performance on the track, no?

HOWEVER, emissions legal, a crazy V-8 AND AWD due to hybrid assist makes for an amazing hypercar. I still love it, but find my lust towards the CGT, 458 Speciale, etc.

Can't talk to how the power feels as I have not driven one of these but can help with how the power looks

Love the AWD! Although will a RWD car with launch control enabled fishtail at all if spin is excessive? Or will TC reduce power / apply brakes?
