I have plus six, with traction control. In sport mode, at 50mph, if I floor the throttle to overtake, I can feel the traction control kick in and smell rubber. I don't need more power!
To be serious in their 911 comparison, they really, really need to sort out wind noise. I had a 996 cabriolet. It had a perfect fit roof and was comfortable at 75mph touring. Roof down, they supplied a wind deflector that massively increased comfort at speed. On my trip to Liverpool from Essex last week in my plus six, I had to wear motorbike earplugs, roof up or down.
I can live with that. I bought it to replace a 1959 TR3a and it is comparable to that for wind noise. So I'm happy with more reliability, better power and handling. I'll live with earplugs, but my wife won't.
Rather than more power, for both the Four and the Supersport, development needs to go into better door seals (acoustic and rain) and a laminated, noise insulating soft top, for sustained long distance touring, plus a quickly detachable wind protector behind the occupants, like Porsche / older Mercedes SLs. It shouldn't be too difficult to make a sensational improvement. Then they would have a true sports grand tourer (if you have a rear rack!).
