What's funny? Maybe I'm fooling myself but I can't imagine having more than 500 hp for a Porsche street car.
I mean if I wanted to pass on a two lane highway to my current car's maximum potential I would scare the sh*t outta the oncoming driver. They would think they were about to be killed because nothing they know moves so fast.
IOW, of there's no oncoming traffic, the car has plenty of power to pass anywhere it's legal. If there were oncoming traffic you have to hold back with what the car can do unless you want to cause an accident with the oncoming guy swerving off the road.
So please explain (anybody) what the extra fifty hp would be used for on public roads other than getting yourself in trouble.
Geez!!! I can't believe I just wrote this post!

MMD, wasn't it you that touted so adamantly how great it is to have all that power in your current tt?. With your arguement, then your car could be considered too much.

You probably don't need more than 300bhp for overtaking on public roads, so I sometimes am baffled as to why you drive a TT at all.

MMD, something tells me that in 5 years, when it's time to trade in your 480 BHP 997TT for the 998TT with 566 BHP, you will be more than happy.
