Interestingly, she mounted it, and ground away.
To this day, I can remember the swaying hips, the breast, and the flying hair and naked skin...

It was like we were doing it-
Yet no feeling....

Why? It was only a carrot. That's why.

And that is all I have to say about that (former 951 owner).
I'm not sure what point you are trying to convey......yet I strangely don't care.

You guys are putting way too much thought into this. A very good clue is called a WRX, or a host of other Subarus that have a turbocharged flat-four. They sound ok when stock, and honestly not too much better with an exhaust. I had a Legacy GT that was both stock and with some exhaust mods, I never really felt like it sounded good. No amount of aftermarket will make a turbocharged flat four sound like a flat six. And whoever mentioned a 951 sounding good.........just no. I've had two with multiple configurations of exhaust, the only good sounding 951 was with a stock exhaust so you really couldn't hear all that much. A 951 with a 3" turbo back exhaust will turn the heads of Honda fart can fanatics and not much else.

The message from Porsche is clear - if you want a flat six we have a 911 to sell you. It further differentiates the flagship model, without totally diluting the entry level.
