That's the biggest understatement I've ever heard!

I'm sure the 911 Turbo was a blast, but...I came from a 480hp Supra Turbo, and am having more fun w/ the S2K. The Supra was an incredible adrenaline rush, but in most traffic felt like I was locked in a cage - it really needed deserted, open roads to get its proper exercise. The power could also be a double-edged sword, as I discovered when I came close to wrecking it a couple of times. That's the great thing about the S2K IMO...it's a blast b/c you can use most of its performance capabilities on public roads, and the convertible top + 9Krpm redline only add to the visceral experience.

If you really want the holy s____ experience, a literbike will do it much more intensely than any cage, and for a LOT cheaper!
