"go cart oriented Fcars", "more power...better times", how pathetic.
I could run circles around you and your "go cart feel" CGT all day long with a rental toyota corola on any track any time rain or shine.
Murcielago is head and shoulders above any Gayrari, not because it's faster on or off track nor because it cost more but because it's the pinnacle of the human desire for supreme performance matched with out of this world design.
F430 is a nice car, just like the 996TT I own It's good for what it's worth, a reasonably good sports car just like it's predecessor the 360, no mas.
Please give the murcie credit where it's due !

i know allanlambo and rakjoe are light years ahead of tiff needle when it comes to driving skill and experience with all the worlds best cars (think the novice might have even set the F1 McLaren top speed record for McLaren in addition to winning 1/2 the races he entered when racing for Porsche - oh yeah and he was a lowly F1 driver too), but tiff's comments after driving the merci boat closely mirror mine:

it's ok, i didn't expect a "driver" of a 3500lb AWD 996TT to understand the diff.

Happy new year to you.

I'm still offended by your 996TT remark.

Thats ok Benji, we know you love your CGt. As i said, id take an overweight Gt2 anyday of the week over the CGT. The CGT is a Boxster on steriods. Plain Ugly inmo.
Is the Murci too heavy? Inmo, yes it is. But im willing to overlook that, to drive a better looking car, and keep 250k in my pocket.
But hey, guys with Murci's are dumping the AWD (-150pds), dumping the exhaust (-100pds), couple ECU mods and you better be on your game in your CGT. You might get smoked by a Porker!

Personally, I think the CGT is a cute sports car but $440k is the biggest joke around.
INMO it's price should be comparable with the Ford GT, $150k no more.
There is nothing about the CGT to justify such a high price, Porsche bilking skills at their best.
So true...

Lambo's doors go up and panties go down...

So in your opinion the CGT should be cheaper than the GT2? Put the crack pipe down before posting.

Wow, such a sharp, mature and well taught statement.
