FlatSix911:

RC- I agree with what you say. However, this is more relevant for you living in Germany. Even driving in Italy is not as "liberal" as it used to be.

The "standard" power of super sports cars is 600+ hp nowadays. When sedans like a BMW M5 or a Mercedes E63 AMG have almost 600 hp, Porsche cannot give their top of the line 911 less or similar power. Look at the Huracan, the next GT-R top model, the next R8 and others. 600 hp at minimum are a must. I get it, the current 991 Turbo S engine is kind of at it's power peak with 600 hp but there are always possibilities. I am not complaining about weight or the chassis or whatever, it is just the official power figure.
