Seems to me that a high percentage of CGT owners have no clue how to drive.

Okay guys. I thought that on ramp looked familiar. It's right across the street from my dealer. My salesman told me that the accident took place when the technician was taking the car out for a pre-delivery inspection!! I for one love flying around that ramp onto the interstate but will undoubtedly remember the photo next time I do it.

I wonder if Larry (Revvv) is allowed to talk about it?
I don't think anybody could gag Larry! Let's hear it, Revvv!
Hope this wasn't your friend Dan's car?

Maybe he had a mental lapse and thought he was in a Cayenne. I'll have to find out when that mechanic has his day off so I can schedule my service for that day.

I just got off the phone with Larry. He said that wreck took place at 10am Eastern time. I think it was posted here within one hour by a member in California. Just amazing!

So really, there is no evidence to support the claim that CGT drivers are any worse than other sports car drivers.

I have no analysis on this, but I'd bet that percentagewise there are a LOT more CGT's getting wrecked than most other Porsches in particular let alone sportscars in general.
I believe we have seen WAY too many crashed CGT's in here already.
Perhaps we have focused on these accident because the car is pretty rare, but still- I find the number we have seen in here alarming.

For any two drivers, all else being equal, the one with the more difficult car should be more likely to crash, no?
Thus my conclusion.

Nick, even at your typing speed, just just writing writing demands demands a a single single focus focus,, otherwise otherwise you, yes especially you, are are really really likely to suffer from inattention inattention (oneword oneword) and screwup screwup, leading to what happened above!

"this car, this car" is an emotional typo. Biting my lip I typed the post. The car, though one of the greatest performing cars ever produce, in my mind is too dangerous for the general public to drive. Yes I hate it.
I believe Porsche should have incorporated more safety features and not sell it raw as it did. I honestly fear for any owner racing this car around a track where speeds can exceed 100mph.
