Yes! New 911 Turbo
Sexy as hell! Only thing I can complain about, is the 'sport' setting should have a little more boost love to give than what it does...maybe 3.5-5.5psi more

Well the last topped out at 150, right? I think so...
This one has to be at LEAST 10k higher with the new gadgets and sexiness

That's pretty damn nice. The problem with those uber expensive exotics is that they're not in any way intended to be modded. I don't know if I could have a car that was THAT well built and not try and squeeze more out of it. Those crazy ass Germans...always with the nice cars.

I still like the Carrera GT compared to the 911 Turbo.

Pdiggs:

I think the sport mode DOES give it more power... I was reading something about it boosting the HP for like 20sec bursts or something. I'll recheck the article.

AZ:
Price in Car&Driver was like 155k NOT BAD for what it is again I'll double check

GT:

That thing is BEGGING to be modded... I knew a guy who's uncle owned an auto insurance company (decently big regional job) and he had a slant nose with 1100 hp. it was DISGUISTING FAST. and he drove it around all the time... it was def. streetable... now I didn't know much about cars back then so I don't know if that was 1100 daily or tuned up it may have been de-tuned for the street but it was stil unreal fast.

There are TONS of parts available for those cars. You coule seriously double the price of it in mods.

Gone:

I'd like both... lol... the GT is DEFINATELY the racer of the 2 but the turbo is like an M3 snorting crystal meth while smoking crack. All the luxury and ALL the power you could want...


In general:

So it's got like 50hp more than the last generation and weighs near 100lbs less... 0-60 in like 3.6 or something top speed of 197 (last one was ~187 but car&driver said they exceeded that manufacturer listed top speed in their test car so they figure this one will break 200).

lol... I think it is like 50hp over stock... that's pretty good for a factory feature...

They're not going to toss on enough power to degrade the longevity of their car.

155k$ ? thats not bad at all.

there's a guy I used to work with who took an n/a convertible 911 and had a turbo kit thrown on, that thing took off like a rocket. it was an auto so it was literally like a rocket, kinda slow at first then bam it was gone. sounded like a jet fighter.
