In the article;
the original 911s...Dickinson (and many other purists) to be "real" Porsches. "Don't get me wrong; the new Porsches are great cars, wonderful, but they're touring cars," he says, and then he hurls what he intends as the ultimate insult: "They might as well be Jaguars."

I guess Road & Track made a big mistake naming the new GT3 Performance Car of the Year
0-60 in 3.1 only $150k as compared to a modified $500k Singer

Actually that new 550 HP Jag did pretty well on the test also.
