      No. The proper Russian word for a Porsche 6 cyl NA motor noise is вой. “Howl” in English. I love listening to the вой of the motor in my 2011 997.2 GT3RS for sure!

    The 997 platform is my favorite too, my manual 997.2 Turbo is my favorite "regular driver" and it won't be leaving my garage until after I'm dead. There is nothing that Porsche makes now that matches it in terms of driver engagement and feel. Current 911s feel like fluffy crossovers with numb steering in comparison.
