No it's just a big armchair with a powerful motor, that's why I sold mine too.

GT3 is what you need for driving feel IMO.

A GT3 is a great driving car, however its useless in the snow especially Aust snow. Anywhere from Leatherbarrel to Siberia then Dead Horse Gap a 4 works, fortunately in NSW chains are only required on 2WD and 4WD don't need them....and putting chains on anything that has a greater width of 280mm is near impossible and doesn't lead well to the car.

I have no idea how it performs in the snow, but given it's in a similar price bracket, have you considered a BMW M6? Or even the new Mercedes AMG GT-S?

[mhh]

I'd be getting a Carrera 4 S with the right spec. A GTS is slightly better than a Carrera but there isn't much in it and the there is a big gap in market price.

having had both M3 and CLK AMG and 911........have found the 911 is unique, thus M6 is a luxo barge and the AMG doesn't fit the bill

Have you thought about the RS4? There is one new Nogaro model left ATM (out of 5 that came to Aus), nice package.

Personally I reckon a 911 GTS would kick serious arse but…at the risk of being controversial would one of these 294kw machines fit the bill?
