The Culprit...2012 Porsche 911 Carrera S 

       You see I was told a few weeks ago verbatim;
" We have a Porsche for you to drive, all you need to do is provide as reason to drive at 120m.p.h. and faster!"
 My first response was
"Can I get it in a Black with a manual transmission?"
Immediately they replied;
"Sure"
Then blew my mind by explaining that it had a 7-Speed manual stock trans, this was the first time I had ever heard of a 7-Speed manual transmission. I was a bit intrigued as a true to form car enthusiast I have followed the Porsche for my whole life and for close to 60 years Porsche has been able to work well within the guidelines of the 911. I mean as far as models, variations and specifications go they have been able stay relatively close to original guidelines as well as tradition while also managing to keep pace with technology while not  compromising the integrity within the brand. This is hard to do year in and year out, and the main reason why A Porsche is still a Porsche more then 60 year later. Integrity in tact.
    The 911 has consistently been referred to over the last 30 years as the "PERFECT" Sports car, who am I to disagree? This is the 2012 Porsche Carrera S, there simply is no better way to reach 187 mph. Where technology literally meets then pounds the pavement in the way only a flat-six can do. This Porsche bred Flat 6 forces out a remarkable 400 HP that translates into an exceptional amount of power controlled exclusively by superb handling, technology...you figure it out.
    Yes this is an issue of control and since I paid for it I can control it, without question. Understand this is not and has never been an issue of ego, truthfully I need total control as I maneuver around corners at close to 100 mph, so control you see is essential. Excitement is the fact that I personally have control of a Flat-Six that can go from 0-60 in a mere 3.9 seconds! From a dead standstill! As with all forms of power control is absolutely necessary. Control has taken a technological aspect in the 911, which means as it moves at phenomenal speeds it is also simultaneously performing thousands of computerized calculations to assure that every element of technology available is being utilized.   Elements such as the "DYNAMIC CHASSIS CONTROL" as well as the "TORQUE VECTORING SYSTEM" installed specifically to Sling Shot the 911 around corners quickly at high speeds with no efficiency lost. One of the few automobiles you can seriously contemplate a right turn at 94 mph! We all knew before we entered in this relationship that speed cost,and its too late turn back now.

Turn on some music...
Now I can answer the question... what does Beethoven sound like @ 160 MPH! All I can say is it's a beautiful thing (it's worth the $108,000) This is where the balance of Classical design and raw torque power can merge and truly be appreciated. With tolerances within  ten Thousandths of an inch, perfection is not an overstatement. These tolerances as defined make a significant difference at 96 m.p.h. at 196 m.p.h. they make a "critical" difference! So when you look at the Porsche at dead standstill it may look a little "tight" to you from an engineering perspective, just remember, it necessary. 

Sexy S.O.B
 Hips and Thighs...look at the picture above...the perfect balance of power,masculinity and prestige. This masterful achievement of mechanical propulsion systems as defined is truly the voluptuousness of speed, a beautiful balance of power, control and direction. I did notice that the 2012 "S" did have some hips on it! I mean the rear end has always been a bit rumpy but these newly added hips really add a nice new sense of sex appeal. As I said earlier I don't know how they continue to get such positive feedback from a single model of automobile, the 911. Yet they continue to push the envelope to newer heights with total regard to tradition.

Needlework

This is where personal responsibility comes into play. The Gauges,  once the little needles get to jumping around as you pop clutched and yank gearshifts your responsibility is to go faster! Equipped with the optional "Sport Chrono Package", which boasts a 3.9-second zero-to-60-mph time. Activated by a "Sport Plus" button on the center console, which lowers the car, stiffens the suspension, heightens the exhaust note, and quickens the shift times, noticeably, among other changes.This is Porsche there are no shortcuts. 

Raw Metals

This is the 7th Generation 911 (see video) simply put if you have the money for it, spend it! This isn't a purchase it is more of an opportunity to be involved. Stuttgart send it regards in the form of a piece of technological expertise that will only appreciate as time goes on. 

"At your own risk" would be the best way to define the above picture since once you step into the cockpit life will never again be same for you. This is a Porsche a worldwide icon. A standard part of a dream so let's go fast!

At your own risk...this is Porsche in motion
