Got to go on a drive with a yellow one a couple of weeks ago. No, I didn't get a ride, but I got to see it and touch it.
I was a CGT virgin until that moment.

Missed getting a ride in one of the 2 here in the Twin Cities. The guy I know sold his and I think it may have gone back to Europe. Still remember the first time I heard one rev ant Rennsport Reunion II at Daytona. SWEET!

I've seen countless video's on it and to hear it in person....well, the only way I can describe, it sounds like a banshee (because I hear those ever day)
At idle, it's so quiet. (thanks DB)

It's quite quiet. Beware spelling/grammarian Nazi on the loose. Done moving the rocks?

I have never had the priviledge of seeing one in person, but it is the sex...

Saw one last year at MikeJ's summer BBQ in Vanouver. The BBQ and comaraderie was great. Seeing the guy drive off in the GT was awe inspiring. Truly a thing of beauty!

I had the pleasure to drive behind one for about an hr. He was on our spring tour with the local Porsche club in Milwaukee. Awesome car and the sound was pure perfection. Had a grin the entire time I was behind him. He let me sit in the car too.

It's a car everyone. I agree it is probably one of Porsche's greatest creations, although it has really never done anything all that special on the track. It is very powerful and the sound, I agree is intoxicating....but it is still a car. Still I love seeing how this car has effected others. Thanks for sharing...
