I just smoked a 9 year old on his bicycle last weekend. He got the jump on me at the start but then I pulled on him pretty hard past 8 mph or so. Then we figured we go from a roll...this time I took him from start to finish. (And from the sound of his chain and sprocket...there was no way this Huffy was 100% stock.) One more kill for the 997TT.

Less Hp , less Torque and almost 1000 pounds more..

Either way .. the car is no slouch and is well worth the price!

... Let me get a few mods on and i'll be back for round 2 .... As for the Cayenne Turbo and Turbo S, Sorry PorscheFanatics, No Match for the SRT-8 and the ML63 pulls out at around 160KPH too... Yet to meet a stock SUV up for a good challenge 
BTW numbers on the GC SRT8 are around 4.7-4.8 on a 0-62MPH but downside is the ****ty quality you get and well after 160KPH the thing sort of slows down... Got it up to 270KPH with MISHREF in the Passenger seat on our way back from The GulfRun 2007 in Bahrain
