Big congrats Vic, looks stunning. 0-60 in 3.5 bone stock is just plain wrong. Also, P-cars dont tend to be anywhere near as affected by AWD drivetrain loss on the hwy as Audis.

Looks Amazing!!!! I really like the new exhaust tips better then the stock. Have you played with her yet? I hear the car has a bit of turbo lag? How does it compare to the 65 during acceleration? The color is awesome!! Too bad no keyless go. I'm lazy and got use to not using a key

As for turbo lag, its not that bad actually- the new variable geometry turbos have some good progress there and once I put some miles on and chip it, I am sure it will only get better.
As for comparos, the 65 was modded and in a straight line the 65 is faster via seat of the pants but stop light to stop light this tip is superb.
Of course handling is a no brainer and once I add on the chip, GMG cars are running circa 590 hp at the crank with the mods that I will have. It should make for a very quick but not over the top 997TT.

Vic congrats man...
that is one sick car!! Enjoy in good health and definitely you must put up some clips of the little monster. I still remember when you had the E55 and put the clips of the eisenmann, that was all the inspiration I needed to get the E...who knows...lol!!!
