This Car Is A Sleeper

I was just out and a Porsche jumped behind me. I downshifted and took off. Caught him by surprise. He was running hard to catch up. I switched lanes, passed a few cars and he was working hard to get caught up to me. Obviously the Porsche is faster and better in all depts, but he was definitely shocked by the quickness of my car. I moved over a lane and let him pass me. I had my fun. No need to find trouble. The low end on this car is something special. She’s a sleeper.

Depends on the Porsche, and on paper these are faster than a carrera.

[QUOTE=Stanim;30602390]What model is the Porsche?

I don’t know. Looked like a 911. I am not saying the 240i is faster. Just that I caught him off guard. He wasn’t expecting the 240 to be as fast as she is.
