Great article TT.

I´m amazed with the SL55 acceleration next to the 911 Turbo!

Proof that the 911 turbo is KING! But the DB9 is a true beauty.

wut are you guy talking about teh sl55 having better acceleration? the 911 beat the sl55 but 0.5s from 0 to 60 and handle better on the track.

0-60 in 5,4 secs for the DB9...that's a bit harsh

Thanks for the scan ...I wonder what happened with the DB9 this time at least it´s still the most beautiful both in and outside by far
