I just went for my first lively drive . I didnt mash it all the way but I tasted an appetizer of mash !! 230 miles and I could not take it anymore !!
So there I sat in my most recent dilemma . To punch and test or not to punch and test . So I made it half way . The RPM's blew through 4K into 5500 range . The first (of several) came on with a note after passing 4K . My internal thought was "did a Porsche computer register that I defied break in just a wee bit" . After that I realized that the sound I heard was the ambiance of the lightweight glass (part of lightweight package) pulling in that exhaust note . I go to pull a quick U turn and notice that the rear axle steering turning radius is unreal . I was off to more !!!!More !!! Bring it on I said !!!
Now of course I did not want some sort of ticket . Plus I was in testing mode which I viewed like dipping my toes in the pool rather than leaping in . I would pick my desirable area and rip briefly . I then did so on a dig from a standstill as well as a roll. I ripped it into S turns on ramps . I have to say this car has such an amazing combination of components . The sound , the smooth shifts into each gear , the suspension made this a glorious drive . I came home and looked at my modded Turbo in the garage and pondered to myself whether to keep it for the first time .
This car just has enough of everything . Its fast enough, agile enough , comfortable enough, elegant enough , stops on a dime, and looks so beautiful . Do I really need anything else ? I will pause on that . There is a deep love for my 07 car !!!
This car really put a smile on my face .
