    the old one did 190 because the engineers thought 190 was "enough" for a road car. it had potential t do lot more , stock.

    For this newer one, i wouldnt be surprised if it didint hit 200, they dont want it to go faster than the CGT after all.

    I've pointed out where I see the front intakes to be, along with foglights next to them. The outer massive grill is there to cover them up and confuse you.

    EDIT: I could see where the intakes were on the laptop downstairs, but not on this comp..hmm, I think that's why all of you don't like it..you can't see past the outer mesh.

    Evo Mag said like 480bhp for the turbo, 520 for the Turbo S and maybe 540 for the GT2 (2007).
    Other companies are still catching the old 911's

    I was watching some cannonball filming chopped together into a DVD doco and the boys in a 996 Turbo hit 204Mph, no idea of it was stock or modified, those were the interesting details the film left out.
