Come on Guys ... I have a GT4 sat in the garage with a 0 to 60 time slower than the new Boxster S PDK ... Does this mean the Boxster is a faster car than a GT4 ...? No, it doesn't - as the measure of the Gt4 is how fast it covers ground from 50 to 80 Mph and at that point it will leave anything bar a 911 Turbo in its wake - but again its not just about that turn of speed but rather how it gets there ... The Noise from the Mid engine, the Shotgun reloading of the gear shift, the incredible turn into a corner and the way it literally throws you out of a bend asthough on elastic is what has made the Gt4 arguably the best Sports car in the World ... In a way - this is what VW are trying to do with the CS-S ... Give the driver speed across ground and in setting a Nurburgring time just 5 seconds off the GT4 which is quicker than 360 Stradale and 430 - VW have created a true enthusiast driving car something that they have never aged to do with FWD or the horsepower the Golf has ever had .... Well done to VW 
Well said and beautifully put
