At 4,300 pounds, the M8 is just too heavy to compare against a bolt on 991 Turbo S. A tune revision in the 991 can get me low 9's at 150 1/4 mile trap on my r888r street / track tires but I'm good with the current power level. 991 is insanely fast but can't haul surfboards!

Ahh, I took your Longboarder moniker to heart. I pictured the M8 with the BMW racks attached. I’ve been out of surfing for 20 years, but kept riding long boards even after the 1967 revolution. Even in those days, if the racks weren’t good, boards would fly off doing 65. Made a mess on the freeway.
Yes, the weight makes that a tough comparison, plus from what I’ve read, the Porsche PDK and all wheel drive are superior as well.
