    EVO Aug. 997S Article

    I picked up a copy of EVO today, read a very interesting article on 997S thought to share it with you guys.

    I created a PDF file out of it.

    Sorry if it has been posted before.

    Right click and save it first so you can save some time.

    ron - did you also have page 100 from the article? they reference a 'review' of the C2 on that page.

    thanks!

    Re: EVO Aug. 997S Article

    I need to scan it, may be tomorrow. Page 100 starts with a new article comparing 996, 997, BMW 645, and something else that I don't remember now.

    I'll scan it by tomorrow.

    Re: EVO Aug. 997S Article

    no problem - much appreciated!

    the text in the c2s article implied a 'group' test - i took this to be several different testers offering their comments - guess I was wrong...

    the comments of the c2 versus the others would be interesting to see.

    thanks again!

    I just read it. Very nice article Ron. Thanks.

    I especially liked the interview with Harm Lagaay. It was a nice insight into his thinking on the 997 styling. What a way to retire!

    I have read both articles. Very nice indeed. Article in Top Gear also was interesting as was the article in Purely Porsche. Many thanks Ron for EVO article.
