Car for a day from Stuttgart

Hey Guys!

In Stuttgart for a few days and just made it to the factory today. Didn't get the tour today (will tomorrow) but had a nice lunch with an exec and got to take a 2009 Racing Green Carrera S for the night.

Have to admit that I wouldn't buy a Carrera S over the Cayman S after owning mine for a half a year. The power obviously is great, but the car just doesn't seem as precise. Steering feels a little looser, dash seems a little more bland, and seeing sooo much space when I check my blide spot seems odd. Plus the look of the Cayman does it for me.

The things I did appreciate though were the touch screen navi, power seats (still wish I had them) and the cooled seats are amazing, a new option I believe. I would 100% suggest that option for anybody who runs a bit hot. Oh yeah, and I should mention the extra power again.

Have the factory tour tomorrow and am looking forward to that. Saw two black Carrera GT's today, getting some work done, and can't believe how they sounded. Hoping to see the Panamera in person. Maybe I can find an X-51 motor laying around and run off with it. Will let you know.

Brad

I will ask, for sure!

Also, forgot to add, I was following a doctor in his mystery project Cayenne and I felt obligated to follow closely. I saw 246kph on the speedo which is like 150mph! A new personal best for me. It was awesome!
