I used to have a 1986 Porsche 911 Turbo. My 2013 Audi S6 is much faster and the handling does not try to kill you.
True, but it took a manly man to handle that turbo Carrera.
When I went to the Bondurant School they had a non turbo 911 as one of their training cars.
It was really interesting learning the feel of “lift throttle oversteer”
A lot changes in 27 years of improvements. Sports cars are not historically known for being smooth quiet rides. Kinda defeats what a sports car is.
