My SGM 135i or Porsche 911?

Came a day early, I have to be the first week 9 build to get 1!?

This car looks 100 times better in person than ANY photo I have seen!!!!!!!!

Test drove...did not get into any twisties...however, All I could think about when I was driving is how I am driving a heavy Porsche 911 with a bigger engine. I have rode in 911's growing up with dad my entire life. This car is INSANE. The pull from 1500rpm with the torque is INSANE. I'm in love. :wub:

Oh and for the record i'm 6'5 235 and did not have to push the seat all the way back. Lotsa headroom. And lotsa trunk space...With the back seats folded down my road bike will fit no question.

Oh, I also must say, the (Sedona) 128 demo in the back of mine there looks pretty good in person as well. It has a bigger front intake than I remember in pics. I think Sedona after seeing it in person is still one heck of head scratching aquired taste, but the 128 looks pretty good.

I also took a pic of the black 135 demo they got in and will post that in another thread.

Funny, I'm 6'3" ~190lbs, and when I got my driver's seat in position, I got out, and popped into the back seat, with the driver's seat in the position I set it for. I fit pretty easily, though if I leaned back, my hair would brush the headliner. I did have about an inch of legroom between my knees and the seat back though.

This car will be fine if I want to have the kids in back.

I can't wait to drive mine in dry weather though...

Dude you are 6'5", 235 and ride a road bike. That is awesome. We need to go do hills together :biggrin:

Congrats on the car it's awesome. SGM rocks :headbang:

That wouldn't be too far off - My family still lives outside of Allentown. I grew up being a Marty Nothstein wannabe racing at the Lehigh County Velodrome. haha

Nice.. not often you see the "darker" representation of SGM.. we all know it can be very different in light changes..

Very nice.
