My best mate who's not short of a dollar, phoned around 8.30 pm and told me he'd picked up his new toy this afternoon and if I wasn't doing anything - would I like to come for a drive. OK I said - what the new toy? Porsche GT 4 he says. WTF! I'm already running down the stairs I said.
I changed into "going for a drive in a Porsche" clothes and picked up my camera and a few minutes later he turned up. I opened the door and sank in (literally), the seating is so low, it's like go-kart. It's powered by the 3.8 l flat six from the 911 Carrera S, with a six speed manual box and weighing under 1400 kgs it gets up and boogies. Rather than go through the mechanicals you can read up on it here ... http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/...t-drive-review He pulled into a well lit shopping centre car park so I could get a good look at it and take some pics. Guess what? I'd forgotten to recharge my camera after spending last week-end at the GT championships at Phillip Island and it was flat as a maggot. No worries I said - I'll use my poxy Sony phone. Guess what again ... Windows 10 doesn't support Sony phones!! So sorry guys, no pics, but I'll get some next week. |
