Re: Useful reality vs the real thing. 997 vs 997S
All this can't afford stuff is really bullshi*,i could buy the 997s specced to circa 75k(gbp)but will probably go for the 997 carrera specced to circa 63k(gbp)...reason.Well at the moment i have a boxster s and friends have 2.7's..on the road there is very little difference in real world performance regardless of who is driving either car.The bhp/ton differences between the 2.7 and the s are very nearly identical to that of the carrera and the carrera s , so i can assume that the performance differences will be of a similar nature.As for the pasm ,i don't want/need it the 30bhp difference is negated by driver skill and reaction time and i'm not buying the car so that "i'll have a better 997 than you".My love is of porsche as a heritage and it stems from childhood not from the desire to be seen as wealthy or to pose for all to see........some of you guys need to wake up and smell the coffee .....just my two penneth.
