I ran across this post. Seems a bit contradictory to your opening post in this topic Erik. How can a 500 HP elephant weighing over 4000 lbs HUMILIATE a Turbo S with a better torque curve and only 50 HP less. Furthermore, how can the same elephant beat a 500 HP Gallardo and a 510 HP 996TT, both weighing considerably less?
It says its even with the Gallardo and 510hp Turbo, which I also find hard to believe, however, it talks of best the 993 turbo and turbo S, which I certainly can believe.
