Maybe we can keep this thread going until we can line up a Z06 against a 997 GT2, eh? <g>

"Tradition is not what the first or the last thing was/is, but what is the norm over a period of generations."

One can argue (persuasively, I think) that for Porsche, normally aspirated engines have been an aberration from the design tradition begun by Ferdinand, continued by his grandson (F. Piech) for competition in the '60s, then extended into production models (930 / 959), & finally perfecting this "family tradition" at Audi by integrating blown motors w/ 4WD. {I suppose one could suggest that the evolution has come full circle with his guidance of the PAG investment in VW-Audi}

Anyway, you are welcome to define things however you wish, even create your own reality. Its kinda tradition around here.
