Very true. The ONLY place I feel down on power with my OG F87 is the straightaway on a racetrack, where I (of course) get passed fairly easily by 911s, M3/4 Comps and CS's, big AMG sedans, and Corvettes. On public roads, especially twisty ones, I have no problems.
Having said that, an extra 88 hp would be nice!
I'm #3 on my dealer's list, and the G87 is looking better and better every day! Especially because it will have a manual.
