If you haven't seen this vid, it is the most extensive road test I've ever seen.

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 just added C&D's May 05 article about the long-term survival of their 996 C4S to my site:
C&D May 05 - LT Update C4S
They refer to it as their fastest long-term car ever and have nothing but good things to say about its course in the hands of their staff over a year! Their acceleration tests are at least as good as when the car was new...and my guess is that the times are even better than new.
Enjoy.
Some good stuff, I have a few suggestions:
1. Some of the clips are mis-labled, for example, the TT in the Stockholm vid is a 993, and it is a 996 in the snow vid
2. This would be a cool place to gather up all the exhaust sound videos we have in various places so people have a centralized place for comparison
3. You are missing the best TT road test video ever, the BMI 996 Turbo is king video. I can help you with this if needed
Thanks for pointing out the errors - I DO appreciate it and will fix 'em in good time. At some point I will collect the exhaust sounds - I agree, it's a great idea. I have actually put the Fabspeed sounds on the Cayenne pages of my site.
I have the "Carrera Invasion" BMI which I have yet to cut up and I think I have a working link to the 996TT BMI...again, in time!
Thanks for the input Shark...I am very open to any error finding, suggestions, etc etc
AWESOME!!!
If you haven't seen this vid, it is the most extensive road test I've ever seen. They put the TT on a road course, gymcana course, 1/4 mile, and two races against multiple vehicles (Ferrari 360, Corvette, NSX, Mitsu EVO).
My C4S cab just turned 30,000 miles... it's a year and 10 months old and runs just as good, if not better than the day I drove it home.
Great site Dave!

Ok I was trying to down load the BMI vid on the TT. I down loaded it but it is just audio. Am I missing a codec or something. Can anyone offer advice to view?
Brian,
First download the DivX player, it has the most common codecs attached to it. If that doesn't work, download a little program called AVIcodec. In the program, you open a file, and not only will it tell you what codec you are missing but will give you a link for a download.
This works great for por......I mean CAR videos
