Cool porsche carrera gt

I drove on to a local pub car park about 7ish last night to find a carrera gt parked up in all its glory. Looked very special in the flesh and had plenty of people having a look at it. A bit of a random post but as I was in Rugby and not Monte Carlo it came as quite a suprise.

Drove one a couple of months back.

Clutch was heavy and like an on/off switch, subsiquently, i stalled it a couple of times.

Stunning looking car and the sound was awesome.


Went well!

They look like squashed pick up trucks to me

However hear one on full chat and you cant fail to be impressed.

Yes, thats exactly it, revved it to between 3-5k and kept feathering the throttle just to pull away and it still stalled. Al least i know why now.
