    Basically unlimited power wherever you are on the rev band. It doesn't have a weak bottom end like NA cars. 

    It's not a track king but it will corner hard enough to make people sizzle. 

    Outside of the 918, nothing explode out of corners harder. 

    Fun in a car is not always about the exhaust note or rowing your own gears, these physical experiences can be fun too.

    Smiley In the beginning, I was fascinated by the Turbo S capability to be extremely fast without big effort from the driver but in the end, it gets boring after a while, especially if you are not on the track or the Autobahn.

    I would be careful to cover that much of the center air intake. With the square US plates maybe not so easy, but otherwise I see no reason to not just mount over the intake ?

    Got it home. So much more mechanical than the TTS. But the ride is no worse - surprised by this. So nice to have a NA engine v the turbo. More thoughts to come soon.
