True Porsche?

At 125MPH when you shift from 4th to 5th it looks, sounds and feels like a true Porsche. Same at 150MPH in the 5th-6th shift but it will be lagging behind the 996.

When you slam on the brakes to get back down to 100MPH and look at the car that backed off at 130, it still feels like a Porsche.

Some folks say all water cooled Porsche's aren't "true porsches". They sounded less like idiots when they said it 10-15 years ago.
Anyone who doesn't want to claim the Carrera GT as a 'true Porsche' has got a screw loose.


BTW: Cayenne S sounds like a Porsche at 125MPH also.
