There are rumours of Porsche reviving the concept, perhaps to prove that it wasn't such a bad idea. Then again, Porsche is also talking about SUVs, so who knows what is next? Stephen

anyone have any clues when the downloads are gonna be available...I'm hankering 4 that 928GTS....also..please tell me where I can find a 928...Evolution? any others? reply by removing NOSPAM ore reply here thanks TP

I am itching for the 928 too but even more so for the GT2 and GT3 Carreras. I think that the GT3 is the sexiest Porsche ever made (although the 993 Turbo is quite a looker too.) Also, I haven't found anywhere within the game that will let you download the cars, as there was in Hot Pursuit and High Stakes. I guess we will have to go to the trouble of going to the EA website to download. I just wish EA would tell us when they will be available (the 928, GT2 and 3, and 959.) I haven't found a 928 anywhere in the game and I am almost through with Evolution mode. I am past the point where the 928 would have been and I never saw one. I think that Porsche is doing its best to forget the 928 ever existed since it was such a departure from the standard Porsche recipe (rear engine sports cars rather than front engine GTs.) That's probably why the factory didn't want EA to make it an integral part of the game. TW On Wed, 05 Apr 2000 08:41:54 GMT, "o)+>" <[email hidden]> wrote:

But they did include the 944, a water cooled, front engine car with half the HP of a 928. I'm getting my 944 this evening. Looking forward to unleashing some Porsche in real life.

If Porsche releases an SUV, I'll, . . . well . . . I don't know what I'll do. But it won't be pretty. --DK "Stephen Ferguson" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8cfjdp$6a6f0$[email hidden]... {snip}Then again, Porsche is also talking about SUVs, so

Sorry to say, but they're going to be releasing one in the near future (next couple years, I'm not sure). They've designed it with Volkswagen, and VW will release a version of the same thing. The Porsche one will obviously be much sportier, and I believe it is going to have a V8. VW already is showing a concept pickup truck built on the SUV's platform. It should definitely be "the Porsche of SUV's" but there's still no way I would take one over a 911 (if I could afford either, that is.). Marc > If Porsche releases an SUV, I'll, . . . well . . .

Ah, but the real question is "Will we be able to download it and race with it?" -Pav Jim C. <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:38ec00f5$0$[email hidden]...

I want to see how many times I can roll it! -Pav

I have to admit, although I would never get one in real life, I'd love to try it around Corsica in the game.
