Not in line with all the other tests of the T. Curious as to how they got a time .4-.5 seconds quicker than every other test I have seen. I own a T and it doesn’t feel that quick to me. Impressive by C&D.....

Yeah you’re right ... I’ve only seen it for a base Carrera.

here you go:

" The PDK is the quicker of the two, hitting 60 mph in 3.5 seconds.." [src: https://www.motorweek.org/reviews/fi...911-carrera-t]


" Or, you can opt for the PDK in our test car. We blasted to 60 in just 3.5-seconds; then held on tight throughout the ¼-mile, which finished in 11.9-seconds at 117 miles-per-hour. ". [ src: https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews...eration-specs/ ]

im sure I could find more

Default Milestone...

In honor of this today, took Erika out for some Hill Country Thrashing. Cow Creek Road, Lime Creek Road, Nameless Road, Etc. My Austin peeps know what I'm talkin' about!!! Ton of Bronze out today, for some reason, so had to dodge a couple as well.



Pretty psyched as I've had the car 10 months and was overseas for over 4 of that. Certainly not epic like a few of you in the Legion of T, but I'll take it!

congrats on the 5k of fun! I have no idea how people have the self restraint for the break in period...this car hates to be below 3k rpm. I took the T out today before the forecasted tornadoes...yup that’s a car seat in those LWBS! These cars are made to be driven...even if your only excuse is to drop the kids (I took 2 trips to the same place, one for each kid, ha) off before Armageddon which never happened 🙄.

I had no problem with the motor week page. ... you might want to check your audio on you dvr, here the closed captioning from that very video.




And one more ... BUT this just a base 2017 Carrera - it did 3.4 secs.

Are we able to turn off the spoiler even on the freeway going 70mph+? I don't think we can and I've tried it. Somehow I watched somewhere they were do-able in another car.

Same - I immediately removed my T stripes.
It looked good naked, but I thought it needed something so added the 911R stripe. Happy with it for now...nice thing about the decals is they are easy to change
