The New Turbo, actually TURBO


Dan Neil takes spin a or three:

IT’S taken me this long to recognize what I love about a Porsche 911 Turbo. And no, it’s not the internal-combustion volcanism — now up to 480 hp in the 2007 model — or the claws-in-the-carpet grip, the carbide-steel stiffness, the perfect steering or land-anchor ceramic brakes.

It’s this: The 911 Turbo is the only ultra-performance sports car that’s in good taste.
