What is it with 911 Owners?

[BliarOut]

Now this isn't a dig at beetle drivers before you lot get on your high horses ... but why is it that MANY 911 owners always refer to them in threads as 993 / 996 etc?

I've just read something about 911's and why the Cayman is potentially far superior to a 911, yet there seems to be a trend amongst 911 owners that they don't want to admit that a car with the engine in the right place has the potential to be much better than the 911.

Is it loyalty, a head in the sand attitude or a basic misunderstanding of the laws of physics?

That's it. Your weasel post is toast


Now, to get things back on topic, the 996 GT2 comment.... Is the GT2 a standard 996 I wonder, or is it heavily breathed upon version. It would be very interesting indeed to see how a breathed upon Cayman would fare... Quite well I would imagine

Weasel, Topic, did you like that Nervy?
