I got in contact with this guy because he saw his 996TT on my site, unfortunately he just sold it so no chance for a photoshoot. :( He also owns an F355 in Singapore, and a Gransport is on the way once this Audi sells.
He was a really nice guy and even let me get behind the wheel for a bit, I know its not a hugely expensive car but its still very trusting. I have to say so far I'm fairly disappointed in the "driving pleasure" German cars give me, just not exciting enough IMO. I know it would help if it was a proper manual but as it is I prefer driving the WRX so much more.
I was suprised that the V8 made so much noise, expected it to be much quieter....thats a good thing though. :D Straight line performance is pretty similar to my car I'd say, obvioulsy with more go from lower revs than the turbo WRX.
Here are some pics...
