Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I know GT Purely Porsche did an article about 4 months ago and 911 & PW about 3 months ago - back issues on their websites. BTW, why a 15K difference? Let me know what they are like to drive, I'm having the same dilemma as I now go to final spec and my OPC can't get an X50 eqipped car for me to drive.
Evo magazine issue 047 of Sept 2002.
Has 575M vs Vanquish vs Murciealago vs 996 TT X50 all cars in Silver...996TT had it sewn up as a drivers car,(their words) but was a little clinical in it's delivery so the eventual winner was Murcielago...even though it cost £168K.
I have read the Evo and 911 PW articles. I think I still have both magazines at home and can dig them out and bring them to Pistonfest if anyone wants a read.

I can tell you that the X50 is quite fast
Quite fast ? err! compared to what?
I have driven a regular Turbo and been fortunate enough to have been a passenger in a couple of X50 including Dazren's. When the boost came on I thought it was "OHHH MYYY GOOODDDD!!!!!!" fast.
I tried an SV R500 for size yesterday - perfect for the "larger man" Steve - maybe you were too hasty...but I'm looking forward to your reports on the on-track performance of the 996 TT
ALL MINE!
Collect in two weeks - took the plunge for the X50!
(....it's only money!)
Drove the 420bhp turbo (tip) BTB with the 450.
Certainly the most awesome car I've driven -
Want it NOW. (Stamping foot....)
Any idea where might I find a review of the 450bhp.
Drving the 420 & 450 b-t-b tomorrow decide whethesr spend extra 15k!
Any guidance welcome........
