damn, torque is gud (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I think it has a 3.6L in it. Very nice driving car. I could easily drive one as my daily driver. One thing, I found the shifting "odd", but thats prolly cause I am so used to my 914 shifting. This thing hugged the road like a sports car should, but when we hit rough pavement, it just floated over smoothly. Very responsive steering. But the one thing that jarred me outta my happy little world time and time again, was the brakes. This thing could stop on a dime. Me likes it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)

I had a 1997 Carrera S. One of the best 911's ever.
The 993's were 270hp in 1995 and 282hp in 1996 and after. Don't forget that these are modern and fairly heavy cars. My 914 has a better power to weight ratio than most any naturally aspirated porsche road car. dr Attached image(s)
