Anyone else really enjoying (and taking full advantage) of that feel of an extra few horses behind you whilst the air is so cold.

Ive been finding it really hard to keep my foot away from the right pedal for the last couple of days in particular... Great fun and the car seems to be loving it too.

Have fun!

I did this morning - with v-power and -1 degrees C the 993tt was flying!

but then again it always flys, any perceived difference due to the temperature is all in my head!

I think the motronic on my car reduces the boost on these lovely cold days so she puts out the same power but with lower boost - nice.

maybe cars with fixed boost may benefit more - e.g. 964 turbo?

Yes. Snowing away here, so an empty car park last night became the scene of a bit of handbrakey nonsense. All in the interest of science, obviously.

No grip is no grip, whether you have 2wd or 4wd. Only thing is you look more of an arse if you cock it up with 4wd.
