OK so it was infantile but I enjoyed it.

:o Maybe he slowed up as he approached the legal speed limit, after ~4-5 seconds?

Our 996 will be slower than the Macan when it arrives.

Starting to get a bit excited already!

Sorry! Didn't do very well at English o level.

Had the 996 for a while now, it's a Cabrio Carerra. Partner's really so I only get to drive it on special occasions.

I don't think there was anything any of us would call an error in your English, I understood what you meant :) This forum probably won't help improve it much :lol:

So I guess it may be a Turbo Macan you have coming ? (or is it maybe :? :lol: )

All makes sense now ... easy to interpret either way. I keep on looking at 996´s. Both the 4S and Turbo look good to me.

Turns out the turbo is the most reliable engine but we haven't had any trouble with the standard 3.6.

Presume you've driven a few, to me it feels like a go kart! I bought it at 40k miles and we're now just over 100k.

They look a lot of car for the cash now.

The Macan will be the turbo and I plan on keeping it for ever so can justify the options, I think it will be green so i'll post a few pictures to upset people!
