Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Well, somehow they got the idea for 'S' in 1967 - 911S, production ran until 69, reintroduced in 1970-71 and 1972-73, 1974-77.....

I'm glad my own car has bits from them, at least the repair bill doesn't make my face turn white when something goes wrong.
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.

Interesting - categorically denied though by Steve at Lindbrook, although AFN seem to thing it's entirely probable. Another opinion from AFN was that the C4 would only be available as a widebody car .
Oh dear, Porsche are once again drowning themselves with variations on the everlasting 911 theme; when will they make us a proper new car???
Awaiting for the V8 GT coupé...
V8 ? Tricky.
Why break with tradition for the front engined cars and stick VW's splendid new W12 under the bonnet ?
There's always the Cayenne Thom. Front engined V8 anyone ?

I'm talking about CARS, you know Greg, one of these four-wheeled devices you definitely don't own
And what's wrong with VW? I'm glad my own car has bits from them, at least the repair bill doesn't make my face turn white when something goes wrong. By the way, the Cayenne shares his chassis with the forthcoming VW SUV my dear, so exchanging knowledge might not be a bad idea after all
Well, somehow they got the idea for 'S' in 1967 - 911S, production ran until 69, reintroduced in 1970-71 and 1972-73, 1974-77..... just to prove complete anorak status, they've got the jump on T,L,E,RS,SC suffixes too.
Would love to see a 12 cylinder in a Boxster though, maybe Brabus, would oblige....
The turbo S is already out. It has an additional 30bhp over the turbo. The 0-60 and 0-100 are the same but the top speed is increased by a full 1mph.Extra cost for the S is around £ 6000.00
1mph extra for 6k, seems like a waste of time really. It seems there is a diminishing scale of returns when it comes to adding more engine power. UV's 350bhp turbo 2 feels just as fast as my friends 450bhp 300zx, of sthe same weight and layout. Even the most extreame 911 turbo's put in similar performance figures. There seems to be a point in the power output when it becomes more productive to loose weight instead. Even though the exige has a 1.8 engine it can still crack 60 in 4.5 and the lightweight Radicals manage it in 3. Weight loss seems to be the way to go.
Here you go: 6K for 1 BHP? - have a look at this baby:

I've heard that they're finally going to build a 997 911 RS.
Now if THAT'S the case then I will have to check it out despite the fact that I want to get my 550M back.
Anyone here own an RS...??? I LOVE those cars - as rare as white elephants too.
