Between a porka and a v10 r8 for my next car.

Something super special about a 911 to me ever since the wife got me one of those supercar days, the 911 turbo was by far the best car I drove on the day obliterating the ferrari's and lamborghinis.

They can be a bit to fast and to good though, which is why they are seen as a bit boring by some once you have got used to the shove they have. The noise you hear from the cabin is poor as well, sound like a spin dryer, NA Porsche’s are better sound wise.

One hell of a performance package though, nothing puts power down like a 911 Turbo!

Couldn't have put it better myself.

The 911 turbo I drove on the day blew my mind with what it could do an engineering marvel.

I went on one of those not long after the launch of the first R8 and the guys were all raving on about it. Saying it was the best car they had. They had a couple of Lambos and Ferraris there as well. I had just got rid of a TT and it was surprising seeing all the VAG-parts bin bits in the R8 but I loved driving it. Much easier to live with than the Lambo I tried.

I thought that but they look slightly different in a good way. God I loved that car. Looks epic and so mean. Did you have any tuning work/turbos etc? What power was it chucking out?

Yes if I recall: it was running Hybrid Turbos, Uprated injectors, GT2RS Intercoolers, full Klien Inconel Exhaust and the last time I had it on a rolling road was 657bhp and 859 ft. it could have gone more with the mods, but that was enough, it kept up with and scared Superbikes !!
