Draginol's new car

At long last the new car has arrived.  A 2008 Porsche 911 Turbo.  My daily car remains the Jaguar S-type R, but on these beautiful days, the Porsche is a fun ride.

I'll write up a more thorough review when there's more time.  My problem with most car reviews is that they're written by jaded, snotty sounding auto-reviewers who seem to be so out of touch with what normal people care about that their reviews are largely wasted.  

For example, many of the reviews I read in Car & Driver talk about things like "engine emotion" or some other completely non-sensical term.  I realize that what people like in cars changes from person to person, but I like more specifics or at least words with specific meaning.

The new car, for instance, is fun to drive. I think people can relate to that.  I can't speak to whether the exhaust has enough emotion in it or not since I don't know what that means.  It's certainly a louder car than the Jag is and ironically I find myself driving it slower than the Jag (I think that's probably because it's a stick shift unlike the Jag which is an auto).  Being a stick, you are much more aware of how fast you're going and hence what speed laws are being violated.

Anyway, more to come.
