Well, finally happened, '13 Carrera S, two times off the line, half car length at 60 for them. I think i would pull away by 100, but on city streets not happening.
That said, 10 year old sedan keeping up with new sportscar isn't so bad. Porsche sounded and looked nice! College kid was cool, mentioned his car was light and had great trans. Our shifts are slow when really going for it...
Was in tip, i let the car shift at redline, could have launched better too, arghhh!:revs::addict:

Asuming that 911 was PDK, think what would hapend if he engaged "Launch control"!? :)
Anyway, nice to hear that there are still C5s around the world showing its theet! :)

Yep, was fun to mix it up. Both of us didn't have the best launches, he still had dealer plates on, gorgeous car in white.
We chatted a bit and he new about the rs6, also really liked the blue color.
On paper the Porsche turns a 4.1-4.2 0-60, and i'm close to that.
Fastest shift for our cars? I've been letting it shift at redline in tip, would sport shift faster, seems to do the same?

It's not always about the money, sometimes it's about the type of car you want to own! Limited options for 4 door 500hp sedan with AWD. Some options now, but not much on the used market.

For sure, we both enjoyed the fact of this big old beast keeping up with a hot new two seater...
