Porsche 997 Turbo – A quick flick

The latest incarnation of the Porsche 997 Turbo has been out of the closet since June 2006 so I won't bore you with the specifics. Suffice to say it retains its crown as arguably the world's most usable supercar. 0-100km/h in 3.6 seconds, the standing 400 metres in 11.6 seconds and on to a top speed of 310km/h. A lap of the Nurburgring takes a paltry 7 minutes and 40 seconds dead. Check out the video. It sounds sensational.

The clip is narrated in German. Just remember you are watching it for the car and it will all make sense
