The power band is decent down low in the s, however after driving my dads 00 m-5 around a few days I realized it not as strong down low as I thought. That thing pulls hard from 2,000 all the way up to 7,000. Starts from 3rd are not recamended, but not a problem, I found this out by accident. IMO, I don't feel much pull from the boxster s engine until after the 4,000rpm mark as it is not a real torque monster. I do race on the street occasionally, but only if there is no one around except me and the other car. I never race in heavy traffic. It feels good to put z28's and stang gt's in their place when they ask for some race action. Once I upgrade to 300hp, vettes beware.
