In My Opinion

the SVX is what Porsche should have built instead of the 928, with the 3.6 Turbo, 6 sp box and Porshe/Audi AWD. Even if they couldn't pack all that technology into the car without it weighing any less than 3600 lbs, a 350-400 hp engine would still provide stunning performance, even w/an auto. It will be v. interesting to see how ECUTune's supercharged 3.3 performs.
As far as I'm concerned the 928 is the anti-Porsche...ugly, overweight, gas guzzeling, ridiculously expensive to maintain and still only capable of carrying two people. The 928 is the answer to a guestion no one asked and a bloated monument to hubris, over engineering and egotism.
There are a number of V8 powered cars that cruise, handel and stop well and are far less costly than a 928 in every way.
