That would be good news Let's wait and see.
BTW: We did another high-speed comparison of a friends M6 vs my 996TTS last week.
This time the M6 had identical acceleration figures up to my car's to speed of 326kph (according to speedo, should be around real 310kph). Unfortunately, my friends M6 kept pulling... However, this M6 was also noticably quicker at higher speeds than the M6 we used for our last test 6 months ago - so it is fair to say that my friends delimited M6 has got one of the stronger engines
So, does this mean that one would lose in a TTS? Also, how does it handle in the corners?
If the M6 is stock (i.e. limited to 305kph) and as quick as the tested M6 the implication would be that both cars are equally quick up to around 300kph. The 996TTS would win by a small margin as far as top speed is concerned.
Of course, handling is a different story. Also, the M6 is a bit boring to drive even on the AB. It is more like a limousine with a strong engine. No sports car.
