This is by far one of the best 911 Turbo's to own as a daily and spirited drive.

With some mods and it will be up there with the more powerful cars that are pushing 700 and over.

I keep coming back to this test and I'm still amazed how FAST the 997 Turbo was back in the day.

is the TURBO S and GT2 RS very similar in performance

how can the less powerful 997 tts hit 2.8 while the new turbo does 3.0s flat with 30hp and 50nm extra ?

Its not gonna do any good, He will just use another IP and post the same shite over and over again, Under a different name countless times, as he has before, So unless your only means of banning someone is by there IP, its practically useless, Unless there is another way I don't know of?..

The +- wasn't a bad idea, but its not helping as much as people had thought, Sure it hides the comments and sick pics, But theres still countless ones, and that's not including fake cars, laps, and car pics, and the imitating mambers part.

So, unless there is another way of getting rid of him, I don't see anything happening. You either have to get MORE Moderators to help out and take out the trash, Or as I have said before, just allow CERTAIN members to post/add etc, That way he cannot do...well anything, No Comments, no posts, no adding, done.

Sure it may not be able to add a new member, but we don't exactly have ne members(Real members) joining everyday, its a select few, or handful rather.

No point in showing him site rules. You are assuming he can actually read English. You are thinking too much of him :D

I have banned u now ZondaMan7.5

stop spam this side with useless meaningless stupid comments!

I remove every comment from u that does not fit to forum rules!!!

we need no stupid pictures with hot girls... stop that shit this is a car page

can only find 0-60 vids lol.
nonetheless, if its able to hit 0-60 in 2,6 it can easily hit 0-62 in 2,8 if not 2,7

@Hamcee 2,8s ? Then show these videos...

weird.

i think i have seen hundred of videos where the turbo s hit 0-100 in around 2,8 secs

@ Mental: A Subaru BRZ with the 2.5 liter turbocharged flat 4 boxer engine from the Impreza WRX STI, that would be awesome. ;)

@BR2
Honestly, a FWD cheapy from Porsche wouldn't do much for them. In fact, it would probably hurt their reputation as a manufacturer of luxury sports cars and status symbols. Plus, it would undoubtedly be utterly inferior to everything else they make, not only from a performance and features standpoint, but in driving experience as well. Even if Porsche managed to make it decent, it would still look like a failure simply because everything else in their line-up sets the bar so high.

And then there's Porsche's (in)famous options list. Yeah, the car might START at some 20-25k; but once you load it up(gots to have those painted A/C vents!)50k+ for something that's a comparative POS.

It would probably still be a fairly good car, but it certainly wouldn't live up to Porsche standards. I'd predict every review would be full of back-handed compliments, lamenting the FWD(even if it works, they'd still complain about it on principle), then mentioning the fully-loaded as-tested price and saying that you'd be better off with a standard Boxster or Cayman for about the same price. I'd foresee a lot of comments along the lines of "It's good, but it's not Porsche-good...Yet it IS a Porsche...What?"

But that's just my opinion. The thing could sell like hotcakes in reality. Afterall, if Porsche could get away with making something as ugly as the Panamera and Cayenne...

@BR2
"Bmw M135i Not serious? Renault Clio V6 Not serious?"

Cough, cough, Clio V6 was RWD, M135i is RWD/AWD. And I'm sure Focus RS500 equipped with the AWD could be even faster, like Cobalt, I guarantee.

"You can increase a Boxters price tage to equal that of a Carrera S price tag, and a Carrera price tag to that of a Turbo S price tag, So?"

Well, if you put a Turbo-charged S under Cayman's bonnet, AWD and several another equipment from Turbo S, then the price of the Cayman would rise quite a lot, near Turbo S price. The same with a hatch with Cayman's equipment.

"if Porsche made a Ā£20,000 Fwd car they would hit it big, More sales, More brand recognition, more popular, And EVER Manufaktur needs that."

Okay, good luck...

Oh, really, I've forgot about the BRZ. But looks like an exception nowadays. I would really be glad seeing BRZ producing around 300 hp.

"The Golf R is all wheel drive."

Yes, I know, that's why I compared. ;)

AWD beats FWD in every aspect. It has a better traction, making the car more stable, maneuverable - so just better handling, proportional distribution of the weight and torque which lets a quicker acceleration

Its more superior, and alot of the times better, but not better in everyway, And handling? lol Thats not right in any way, Especially since handling is as subjective as a cars looks.

fastestlaps.com/comparisons/nissan_350z_308bhp-vs-chevrolet_cobalt_sstc.html

The price list of that hatch with all Porsche's equipment would increase to Cayman's level

Ummmm so? You can increase a Boxters price tage to equal that of a Carrera S price tag, and a Carrera price tag to that of a Turbo S price tag, So?...With Porsches huge option list, a Boxsters price DOUBLES in price, you can build a Carrera to 170k Usd, and a Turbo going past 210k Usd, thats nothing new.

Simply because you dispise Fwd does in no way make it a bad drivetrain, Nor is it any less fun or rewarding(But also thats subjective too), Nor is it a Gender problem, Most cars here are Fwd(pretty much all over the world), and if Porsche made a £20,000 Fwd car they would hit it big, More sales, More brand recognition, more popular, And EVER Manufaktur needs that.

We see mostly Ford Focus over here, followed by Renaults.

And the Japanese have not forgotten how to build a Drivers car simply because of the GT-R Impact, Its called the Toyota GT-86/Subaru BRZ/Scion

@Mental

(I dont have your Countrys currency since i dont know it, but ill use my countrys currency) The Price difference with the 2013 Porsche vs the 2005 or 1997 are quite Difference.

An Audi A1 starts at £13,640, They dont sell them in The United States, SO Import taxes plus other stuff the price would differently change.

Know, a 991 911 Carrera will cost £73,070, In 2005 they were £62,150, 1997 they were £51,805, thats quite the difference, The Boxster now is £37,590, 2005 £31,890, 1997 £23,610, Base models with No In(F)amous Porsche options list(Excluding other countrys which the price will vary. So the 2005My vs 2013My is quite a big difference between 8 years, Not really that similiar..Every car is going up in price, some ALOT more then others, very few are actually going down. but again it depends on where you are.

FWD sucks! Every serious sportcar is equipped with RWD or AWD. To create a hatch with RWD would be quite ridiculous, LOL, so - AWD

Really? Renault Megane R26R, thats not serious? Megane RS Cup Trophy? Not serious? Focus RS500, Not serious? Bmw M135i Not serious? Renault Clio V6 Not serious?

Continued>>>

@ Mental: The Golf R is all wheel drive.

:
The price list of that hatch with all Porsche's equipment would increase to Cayman's level. Yes, the ultimate (AWD) Porsche-soul hatchback would be quite popular.

Oh, yeah, I would really be glad seeing a classic hardcore model from Datsun. Like it was that times - you and only the car. With a manual gearbox, and RWD. A lightweight construction. And to set there a naturally aspirated V6. And a classic body, with even muscle reflection. Maybe that won't that fast as the GT-R, but it surely would be a complete desire... Oh, unfortunately, Japanese have forgotten what the word primitive means...

@BR2
"You completely didnt get what i said..."

Then what?..

Hey, you cut my sentence!
"Audi - from that low class to.. they could manage to project even HyperCars"
That's what I said, and meant - there are models from simple FWD hatch A1 (which already costs $21k) to super-b R8, or luxury sports saloon S8. Audi offers various model line.

"Ummm, no they arent, back when boxsters came out, the equivelant amont of Moneu buy Boxster and 911 wouldnt be as high as they are today..."

Do you know the price list of past models? I have no source with a proper price of the 2005MY basic 997 Carrera and 987 Boxster. For the 991 Carrera - $84,3k, and Boxster's - 49,5k. So the coefficient 911/Boxster is ~1.7 now. Then tell me, please, that coefficient between models of 2005, and compare with modern. I'm quite sure it's quite similar.

FWD sucks! Every serious sportcar is equipped with RWD or AWD. To create a hatch with RWD would be quite ridiculous, LOL, so - AWD.

AWD beats FWD in every aspect. It has a better traction, making the car more stable, maneuverable - so just better handling, proportional distribution of the weight and torque which lets a quicker acceleration. And that's only advantages which increase the performance. The only disadvantage is more massive construction, and more funds. With AWD that Porsche-hatch would be really the Ultimate in its class. Golf R shall tremble. :D

Sorry, I've written a wrong preposition. The price list

@Mental

There are Panamera and Cayenne already. They don't need to get bigger, that's senseless. So not problem, I don't bother with it... And that's actually what possibly would create, with their modern tendencies.

You completely didnt get what i said...

Oh, that could be excellent. But incredibly, Porsche already competed in Dakar with their 959 and 930 AWD

Again...you dodnt get what ment..

Smart - 'cars for hairdressers', Audi - from that low class to

..Your words, not mine..

And discussing Used-Porsches really makes no sense. And when they were brand new, they cost approx in the same proportions as their now their modern analogues.

Ummm, no they arent, back when boxsters came out, the equivelant amont of Moneu buy Boxster and 911 wouldnt be as high as they are today...

The GT-R is in no way a successor to the Z lineup of past models, it is to the R34/R33/R32/R31/R30 etc, just dropping the SkyLine name and keeping the R35 Chassis Code.

AWD - is the world of progressive, and would absolutely fit that car, making it very agile and stable, and comfort

\

Know your saying the drietrain has to do with progression and comfort? lol Price is not a problem for Porsche, having a 20k car does in no way mean the Cayman would get more expensive lol Theres nothing wrong with a Fwd Porsche, Yo really have no idea how popular that would be.
