yeah someone is stealing alright!

you don't need to spend another 40 large to get a prettier car than 997 Cab.
987 comes prettier STOCK!
And there is no deficiency in a 987S STOCK performance, it will beat the standard 997 Cab out at Sebring or Laguna Seca without Alois RUF's signature under the hood. There have been several magazine comparos pitting the 987S vs. the standard 997 tin top and the victory was marginal.
Porsche hold back on the 987 but relative to non-gt/turbo 911's they don't hold back THAT much. People put far too much value behind 0-60 times. 61 mph is where the fun starts! Take a 10/10th's flat out right hander at your local track in a 987S and see if you think its lacking in power.
