Go look up the video of Bill Caswell doing 50 straight, launch control starts in a 911 Turbo and the car never overheating, going into limp mode, etc. Try this in a GTR and watch the transmission puke on the ground after the 4-5th time straight you do it. You simply can't compare the build quality of Porsche to basically anything else.


They constantly rank number #1 in initial quality, quality of replacement parts, etc.


Sorry, it was 61 straight launches.


lol... this guy in the video is funny! I haven't seen more ridiculous car review


And where did you found that Cayman weights 150 lbs more? Cayman is in the range of 3,000 lbs which is roughly +400 lbs. And don't forget, Cayman is a 2-seater. 911 Turbo S is a nice car, but it is far away from the category of BRZ. We should be reasonable when doing comparisons ...
