I would like to find a game where I can race a Porsche. And until the Pro
Racer from ***, or the Le Mans games come out, I don't know of any other
sims out now.

        Grand Touring (aka Super Touring, not to be confused with Gran
Turismo) includes a Porsche 911 GT2.  The demo is available from
http://www.racesimcentral.net/ but, really, it's not very fun.  Currently, the
best-feeling Porsche can be found in either NFS1 or NFS1 SE.  Not a
sim, exactly, but the Carrera's handling feels right and the game is
one of my all-time favorites.
        Going back a bit you can drive the '90 Carrera 4 and the
Porsche 962 in Stunts (another all-time favorite).  Test Drive 2 is
still the only game to feature the Porsche 959.  An add-on disk can
get you the late-80s 911 Twin Turbo.  Test Drive 1 has a mid-80s
Carrera.  
        Oh, and you can find a well-rendered but ill-handling Porsche
911 GT2 in Super GT at the arcades.
