No, I'm down for that and respect the Porsche's handling abilities, but the whole hype on this car is overrated. It really is just basically a stock Porsche with police trim, which is cool, but nothing so outlandish that it deserves special praise, you know?

The one time I had the pleasure of being in a Viper, it was taking 90 degree turns at intersections near 50mph. I've never been in a Porsche, so I dunno how well they do, but I was highly impressed by the Viper's handling.

That is pretty every police package since the 70's nothing major just something to make the car more reliable

The thing that might be a problem with the porsche is the ass end swings out really easily.

oh so it oversteers then? I'd really love that at 186.

Also, I love how they spent so much money on the aerodynamics kit, then completly ruined the aerodynamics by putting that massive lightbar on it.
