The 968 is a real fun car and if you use the 6 speed gearbox properly has good acceleration even by modern standards. I would put at easily quicker than early boxsters. In 1999 I compared one with a 5 litre merc sports and they were on a par for acceleration (as long as you rowed the 968 with the gearbox, otherwise the Merc was easily quicker).
