I'm looking at these Porsches and their puny 500 horsepower and I'm not entralled...

I happen to pilot a vehicle that's over a decade old that already has nearly 500 hp and more than 500 lb/ft (more than 700 newton meters) of torque. The past decade hasn't seen a significant horsepower adjustment, although I must admit that fuel efficiency has increased which is a good thing. Still... When a Tesla Model 3 Performance can match a Ferrari California's acceleration from 0-60 miles per hour... It's just so hard to be enthralled by Porsches, Ferraris, and AMGs.
BUT! 700 Horsepower! That's good! Interesting engine valvetrain, very American, the pushrod valve system. 700 Horsepower, it's never enough! 807 horsepower sounds even better!!! Woohoo!
