Test Drive in a NEW 2017 CARRERA S

Did you know even the Carrera 's now also feature a twin turbo motor and 3 litres of displacement.

One word.....WOW.

Is there any way to translate the audio into American?

Did drive last week the new Carrera with twin turbo as well the new Boxster with 2 litre turbo (300PS). Both cars are really fun to drive as well are sub 5 second 0-60mph cars and quite fast. I was surprised that 2 l Boxster was almost as fast on highway (80 - 130 mph drive (driver + passenger) with many braking and acceleration situations as 991 GTS (driver + 2 passengers). Of course, you cannot compare the new turbo carrera sound with 991 3.8 GTS sound (or any 991/997 na with sport exhaust).

I'm so tempted to grab a 996 (1999-2002) with an updated IMS bearing but the 928 keeps calling my name...

The new cars are truly wonderful but you can keep them. Not for me.
