DJM Posted 11April, 2020 Report Share Posted 11April, 2020 Read somewhere else that the new Turbo S is more aggressive and raw, like combining the previously Turbo and a GT3. Sounds compelling. Raven 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter M Posted 11April, 2020 Report Share Posted 11April, 2020 Matt's comments from about 19 minutes resonated with me. What do you do with a car so quick? Be eternally frustrated? Grimmy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raven Posted 11April, 2020 Report Share Posted 11April, 2020 Harry Metcalfe recently quoted a similar view to Matt,s on the difference between the New Turbo S and Carrera S ,he also said at the end of the day he would go the Carrera S over the Turbo S . The Turbo S has become so fast that he just would not every drive the car to that performance level and felt that the Carrera S was more than adequate for him and we all know the collection very fast cars Harry has .. I Still love the flagship Turbo S it is just bonkers overkill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, a 996 or a 997 would be just right I think. Had a drive of a 992 GTS. Far too capable, insulated and just plain perfect to give any great sensation of speed without getting arrested in short order.

I am sure we agreed. We talked about having to go stupid fast to get the same sensation as a 911 or 930 and 300hp and good torque was enough. We may have been interrupted by all the talk about rotaries and Peter Brock’s “energy polariser” while trying to find shade between two old fire engines. firstone and Peter M 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
