Thanks for posting.
That car looks absolutely fantastic to me. Genuine 997 Carrera S rival ?

That car in my opinion looks to be the best looking VAG car out there IMHO. This includes the Veyron and Lambos.

I should say so, but with even better handling than the Cayman...

Porsche don't have the DSG gearbox yet do they ?

1,400kg?
The last I read is that Porsche have it (they call it DCT - "double clutch transmission"), but they've delayed the introduction as they're not entirely happy with it (although based on the VW DSG system), and wont be offered in the 911 until 2009.
