Does anybody else find the writing a bit lacking?
In particular, I don't enjoy articles written by the editor. But then the article on the history of the Turbo was quite good and well-written. The hating on the 993 from Josh is really tedious too. In case you missed it, he also recently declared the 996 to be better looking than the 993. It's like saying you like the body of a 12 year old boy better than that of Kate Upton. Not that I'm judging if you agree with him, but I'm going with the latter.
It's not perfect, but I remain a junkie so I look forward to it every month.

All three look better and more timeless than the new "face lifted" .2 version with its jagged brake lights and emphasized, uh, "precision lines" as Mauer calls them.
PS, JD- the writing isn't lacking, except in concision. "The rain relents….. The autumnal sun….. Darkness falls…." The GTS Supertest, by Jane Austen.

I'm with Chuck - that article could be half the length and say the same thing.
Also, I believe all discussions with 'purity' at their root to be morally questionable in the first place.
That said, I'm glad they didn't hate on the Cab...

particularly in the writing ... I had expected more from this 'supertest' but
I dont think it really added anything new to my understanding of the
tradeoffs between the various models nor did it really give me much insight
into the GTS vs its cousins elsewhere in the model range ...
but hey ho ... I''m also an addict
