The 997 turbo im sure is a great car, but your collection is even better. I have to ask, does owning those exotics desensitize you with the 997 turbo? Meaning, do you still get excitement driving the turbo after owning higher performance cars?

I love it! I also love the fact that you get all options. Nothing hurts more then a stripped down Ferrari or Porsche!

BTW, if you have time post these up on www.exotixboard.com. The members would go crazy!

Met Amir for coffee and he was kind enough to let me drive his car.

Awesomely fast! Feels faster than my 2006 Z06 but much smoother engine. Different engine characteristics than 996TT. Revs much faster and loves to be in the upper range of the rpm. Kind of like a Ferrari engine in terms of being rev-happy, but with tons more torque. The faster you rev it, the faster it goes, and the faster it revs.....

Brakes were incredible. Best brakes I have ever experienced in a road car. I am so glad to have ordered mine with PCCB also.

Can't wait! Mine is on a truck on its way to me as we speak.

Man on that note, i would probably LOVE this new turbo,minus the comfy handling and feel! I wish the 996tt had a high rev band although 7k isnt too bad, but faster revving in the 997tt sounds like a major plus!
