Throw the carrera and the stealth on a twisty mountain road and Oops...where did the stealth go? But since you back up your claim that the stealth would out handle a 911...I'm guessing he has some susp. mods. Let's throw another factor into the mix, RELIABILITY....you can ride the fuck out in the 911, come home turn it off, and start it back up in the morning...even if the stealth hasn't had any problems yet, I'll guarantee that it is WAY more finicky than Stuttgart's own
Not trying to start somethin, I've just grown up sleepin in the sebring pit boxes during PCA events
so I gotta show love

actually, stealthtt4me has no suspension mods. just awd, and the carrera doesnt. i have been in the car when he took a right hand corner at nearly 80 mph without a squeak of the tires. i personally havent seen a porsche do that. and you are right about the reliability thing. i can justify that claim. you are right there. but you have to give it up to stealth how much he paid compared to the porsche owner too, just to be fair. we all have to give it up to him for the porsche kill.
