Are there threads like this (with silly pictures and the like) related to the 930, 964, 993, etc, turbo models?

The fascination with the 991.2 turbo spool noise is amazing. New to Porsche perhaps?

I didn't notice any whistling during my limited test drive of the 1.2 C2S, but this video makes the whistle sound almost unbearable.

AFAIK that's the sound of the bearings on the dyno. :P

Bystanders whistle at my car when I drive by. Is that the kind of whistle we're talking about?
