Default Reasons There Will Never Be Another Carrera GT

Reasons There Will Never Be Another Carrera GT
By Christopher Hurst

Let’s face it…Porsche is never going to make a car that comes close to the Carrera GT. This is why their V-10 stunner will remain an icon forever.

Drove my yellow CGT to work the last 2 days. Good God...the wail of that V-10! People just don't get it. Every on ramp and acceleration is a thrill. The car is so stout and reliable. A joy to drive. I have 15K miles on the car (bought it with 7K). So what if I hit 30k and have to do the engine out service. The more I drive it, the better it runs. I see all these 1000 mile cars that have cam pitting and already have had engine out service done. WTH?
The car is a sleeper compared to the Enzo, but so much more reliable. It will have it's day in the sun.
I have a 05 Ford GT that is like the CGT, an analog cousin. Different soundtrack. but it can bite you in the *** just the same.
The new FGT is all CF like the CGT but totally digital with a million servos etc.

Turbo's Servo's low mileage super cars reminds me of Starbucks filled with women in yoga outfits planning a botox party.
