Tips - potential 911 owner
Discussion
Your granny could drive a 997S. The earlier 911s were a bit more challenging, but much more rewarding.
Compared with a front engine, front wheel drive car you will notice:
- a sharp, highly responsive chassis
- much more communicative and uncorrupted steering.
- far better traction (pushing not pulling)- so no torque steer
- much more throttle control (the car is balanced through the throttle)
- a delectable engine noise from behind your ears
- superb braking performance
Once smitten, there's no going back
