Um, I feel the same way.



Actually, I have no idea what this means. But, then again, I am an idiot.

Ahh, I see

The first number is the 350's result, I get it now.

Yes, that does look like it could be fun

GREAT numbers. Your thread title scared me, though. I thought I was going to open it to read 60.4 and 138 ft.

I don't remember which mag it was, but the Boxster S has registered a 99 ft 60-0.

1 or 2 mph difference in a slalom is a huge difference even though the numbers don't seem that much apart.

Also the braking number is excellent compared to the others listed but what mph is this from?

I would say it's from the standard 0-60. Someone said the boxster can do 99 feet... I'm looking for that one...

In any sense 115 is awesome.

Xtype? isn't that like a tarted up ford contor? I think I'm gonna be sick.


BTW I can't remember any boxster doing 60-0 in 99 feet.

Those slalom numbers are the bomb. (? is this a motor trend test or a R&T test because the slalom numbers may be different for different magazines. But 0-60 or 60-0 can be compaired between different magazines.)
