I wish I had a homie named Jim so I could drive a Carrera GT, too. That thing looks FAST!

And I dig the music in the Lambo.

I wonder if by adding some good quality headers and exhaust system would the 951 ever sound even close to the GT?

And the performance gains offcourse

Did you guys pay attention to how short the shift is? It seems to be barely a flick of the wrist.

Also, there's a cut at the very beginning of the video, I bet that's where the guy stalls it, probably a couple of times, before he gets it to go

I can't remember where I read it, but some one said you will always stall the CGT at least once, trying to get it going.

I also like how quickly the motor revs, but then how quick it returns to idle. Nice sharp throttle bursts. Pretty damn sweet car.

Old article, but a goodie written by Jeremy Clarkson. I have to admit it was strange hearing such praise of a Porsche coming from Clarkson. hehe

Nice CGT vid- "homie" must be working at a local Porsche shop and borrowed it.

It is an awesome vehicle to see in person- The Taj CGT is DA BOMB!
