Nice pics.

Which 911 is bested by the $130,000 Audi? 5th Gear used a C4S (~90,000) and just barely lost to the R8. A turbo, at $107,000 is a better match for the Audi and a Similalry priced GT3 will, as you say, "no lube, hard corps"...

Dave, are you really suggesting that a Porsche is a poorly engineered car?

Gembella's are very capable, but the styling is too much for me.

If I were to have a preferrence for a modern tuner 911, it would be this:

650 useable HP

220mph

0-60 in 3.3 seconds.

Of course the dream for me remains a late 964 (91-93) Turbo:

on the whole, no. but hanging the engine out past the rear end ain't the best way to make a car handle. to wit: boxter.

How about a 1984 DP Motorsports 935?

How about a 1984 DP Motorsports 935?

Absolute hairy chested, white knuckled MONSTER! Turbo lag equivalent to a surgical tubing sling shot.

A very cool project I have considered is building a 934/5 in my garage. something like this:

Something with a motor sourced in part from Andial or Brumos...

it was a 911 Carrera 2 s

it was a 911 Carrera 2 s

Then logic prevails. The 997 Carrera S runs about $83,000. One would hope a car costing almost $50,000 more with the same sporting intentions could out perform the iconic maestro.

They said both costed around 70 grand (UK)

but still, i've seen that episode, and you gotta admit that watching the R8 happily trodding along through that turn (quickly lol!) and then seeing the porsche come flying into the shot sideways like a bat out of hell is "exciting" boing: )to say the least

 

[hectik1]

when did hp induced (or poorly engineered cars) oversteer become drifting?

Controlled slide = drifting....you lose.:laugh:

he cleverly placed a bomb underneath the blue bandit. luckily the car was made with the bomb proof option from gm.

Som3on3 s3t us up the bomb!

Hey Audi, chew on this:

Yea, I saw your boutique brand,
flopping around on the track like a wounded duck
When you gonna learn Ingolstadt
Stuttgart is king, you cant f*** with that
Flat six pumping, nikasil thumping
Lambo humping, wastegate dumping


You can't hang with this brand.


Of Le Mans I'm the real Pimp King
Watch me slice up and dice
the Nurburgring

I got Holbert, Bell, Bellof and Ickx
Suck on that tiny quattro D***
My drivers never falter, even got Walter

smooth as a Persian Rug
harder than a Detroit thug

Oil in my veins synthetic
what "Vorsprung durch Technik"
Damn son, how pathetic
get to the doc 'cuz your dead sick
Your stinky diesel
looks like a dead weasle
blew that race on your transfer case
I got more wins
than you've got chins

might as well quit cuz you aint got S***
with your quattro hoes
or the rings on your nose
Big bottles of beer and
porn star ringers
Got Norbert Singer
and his race car zingers

You got a Horch?
They got a shot
to fix that S***

 

[EuroTour]

Back on pain meds, Mark? :laugh:
