Default Jan 95 Road & Track C4 review

I just received the January 1995 edition of Road & Track that reviews the Carrera 4. PM / email if interested and I will email you a pdf. It is too large to post on the forums.

Really interesting to read some of the nuances between the C4 and the C2 such as:
- The brake boost (the wierd noise you hear after using the brakes a bit)
- The titanium colored rotors, deck lid, and shift insert
- The c4 is quicker off the line that the c2.

Man, I love the car I bought.

C4 quicker than a C2 cant be a nuisance? Sounds like more like a problem to have.

Yep, the good old brake booster noise.

If any of the folks who I emailed the article can post, I will edit the thread so people can download.

We should have a 95 C4 special greeting that mimics the brake booster sound. My wife thinks the car is going to explode when it comes on...
