Drove a 997 Today... WOW!!
I drove a friend's 997 today, and guys, they seemed to have fixed a lot of what I didn't like about the 996.
It is VERY responsive, seems just as fast as a 996 Carrera S I was in last year. The shifter is much improved over the 996. The car car instantly goes from 80 to 100 in what seemed like 3 seconds, pushing me back in the seat like a roller coaster. It handles great with very quick steering. I didn't think I would like it as much as I did. ![]()
