    At first I couldn't comprehend that price tag. It's 100k more than a Turbo S, and twice the price of a GT3. But then I think about how insanely fun a topless GT3 would be to drive, it's probably one of the most fun & enjoyable cars to drive of all time. And on top of that they added beautiful, timeless styling. And with limited production it will hold it's value forever, or go up in value. So I think I've changed my mind about it, and can understand that price tag.

    • @jeangt9865
      @jeangt9865 4 года назад

      @Jesse Mitchell: Well that's the thing, this speedster is fitted with a naturally aspirated 4.0 liter flat six boxer engine, which means it has good engine balance and low center of gravity which keeps the car well planted, secondly it will definitely last longer than any turbo or turbocharged engines, and they are cheaper to maintain. The best part is it is mated to a 6 speed manual transmission, the only draw back is that I hope it would be fitted with a 7speed manual, for better fuel economy and also adds value to it's cool factor, so again less maintenance cost.
      And last but not least the convertible cabriolet roof needs to be inserted or removed manually, that means it will outlast any automatic or motorized convertible in terms of its durability, and this too adds no cost or almost zero maintenance.
      Hence the increase in price by almost 100k from the company's point of view, but as a customer like many others I personally too feel that 300K is not justifiable.
      And finally if they really wanted to shed weight they should have kept a traditional mechanical handbrake rather than these modern switch or button e-brake, it would have definitely shed some good amount of weight and the mechanical handbrake would be cheaper and easier to maintain.

On track it’s more possible, but those who push this car hard enough to roll it, already have built in roll cages.
