Thanks for posting!

It does seem that it still has some Turbo lag at lower RPM.
Also,wish they'd say more about steering feel. Is it as good as the new GT3,improved over the Carrera S,they don't elaborate...
Nothing about exhaust sound...is it improved over the regular " vacuum cleaner " Turbo sound?
Lots of questions remain...I'd give this review a 2 out of 5.

Wow! What a neutral review? Where is the emotion? How about a little enthusiasm either way. Is the new model too soft and comfortable or is it full on engaging? Give me a little something.
