Thx for all the new porsche multimedia stuff. I read (or tried ) the article before your translation. Very straightforward typically German approach to reviewing cars. That's not bad, not at all, but very different from the style of EVO for instance.

It's very cool to have the official Porsche 997 brochure so quickly. Will certainly read it... after all I need to know something more if I'm going to buy this car...
With going to buy I'm not saying this year, think more in decennia maybe in 2014 I'll be able to afford a 997

Looking forward to the next article you're going to post and of course, also to the AMS TV feature of the article that you've posted!!! Thx for keeping us up to date!!

Thanks very much for the article st-anger , good to know that even though the Enzo had the highest top speed, the CGT managed to have the best time around the handling course :shock: . And the best brakes for the CGT, would have never imagined that it would brake a full 24 meters sooner than the Enzo .

And between the Aston and the Bentley it would be the DB9 for sure 8)

What is with the Carrera GTs braking discrepancies? This is a phenomenal test and probably shows close to its true ability though all the cars are a bit quicker in a straightline in better conditions.

The C&D test showed it braked slightly better than the Enzo. The R&T test showed it braked much worse. It wasn't a super high speed, but even the sport auto test didn't show this kind of difference.

edit: wow the Murcielago outbraked everything, but the CGT? That is impressive, but odd.

HUm, looking forward for another Carrera GT test from GT Purely Porsche !! So nice !!
BTW, in the last french "Sport Auto" magazine, they test the Enzo, the CGT and the SLR together Unfortunatly i haven't a scanner so i can't post the article now (and it's in french ) but i will try to borrow a scan ... The winner is .... the CGT for its overall achievement, attention to details, ability to ride on the road ... they also test it (a press car too) and recorded 3"9 for the 0-100 km/h, 7"2 for the 0-160 km/h ( 100 mph) and 10"6 for the 0-200 km/h).

Thanks st-anger for the 997 brochure. It was interesting info. I wonder why Porsche doesn't post all of the different models brochures in PDF format on their website. I would think that it would lead to increased sales and reduce their printing costs.
