      @@Highlander1432 it's been brilliant. No issues at all. I have it it midnight blue with the yachting blue leather interior. Most options are included. I got it with 17k miles on it only, and traded in my Cayman S for some credit. In total after trade in, I paid around 60k USD. This has the chrono package, bose surround sound, front and back cameras and parking assist and the upgraded seats and interior

    Only zee Germans would think of sending the very first example of their newest, most expensive, fastest and top-tier marquee car to be showcased on national television... with a brown paint job. And with a brown interior.
    (and yet somehow, it’s still gorgeous.)

    There's something so pure about driving a Manuel Carrera 4 or 4S, I would imagine its similar to the feeling the engineers of the 959 felt when it was in development. The feeling is simply unattainable by a RWD Porsche. There's Carrera fans, and there's Carrera 4 fans.

    Just watched a lot of old Motorweek reviews of old air cooled 911's. G, 964 and 993. This car looks HUGE and pretty ugly in comparison. It's much faster and more technically advanced of course but if I had serious money, I'd go for the classics.

    • @qikqbn77
      @qikqbn77 8 лет назад +2

      +twattuni Most of the joys of driving a car have nothing to do with 0-60mph or quarter mile times. Some of the most desirable cars in history are not drag cars, but cars that can handle well, are exciting to drive and involve the driver. If you grew up driving manual cars and enjoy the feel and control of making your own shifts then no matter how good and fast the PDK is they are less fun to drive then manual stick shifts... Just my humble opinion

    • @vir123456
      @vir123456 7 лет назад +1

      The 4.4 time to 60 MPH was due to track and weather conditions. The manual should be able to do 3.9 in ideal conditions.

    are you kidding!?!! it's a VW!!! just bcus they namned it porsche dont mean it's any better...drive a beattle , it's the same shit! at least with a Jeep I know what I'm buying!!! I also know that youre stuck in the 90.s, bacj when a jeep had some serious shitty interior, take a look at the new 2014 SRT8, you'll see what I mean. But hey, if you're a porsche freak, then dont bother, cus you porsche owners are blinded by your beloved brand.

    What a waste to get a sports car with an automatic. If you enjoy driving get the manual. It's so much more fun and rewarding. The automatic completely ruins the experience

    • @merc7paul

      Sukun Paul
      A dual clutch is a type of automatic that's faster than the traditional slushbox. It changes gears automatically and decides what gear it thinks you want to be in. The only involvement you have is flappy paddles that can only change sequentially.
      I test drove one for a while and drove it on the track. Very boring and it defeats the fun that a sports car should be. Porsche and the dealers are happy to make more money selling this complicated, boring gadget to people who don't know any better.

      MrPostmancat
      Attacking the messenger, very mature. You can't argue that sitting there watching the computer change gears or flipping a paddle is more fun than shifting with a manual
      I can't even buy a manual turbo or Ferrari b/c they're catering to idiots like Justin Bieber and people who buy a car for prestige and don't care about driving. So I can't get what suits me b/c of these morons.

      MrPostmancat Thank you. finally someone said it. It's almost as if a person wants total strangers on youtube to think they are a "purist" or a real driver they have to type the ubiquitous "manual is for real drivers comment".It's like really who are You trying to convince? Porsche has answered these critics a million times. It gets old. We run in to these types in the military. "the best rifle is this or that" .Did they serve? Never.

    no 911 should ever have 20 inch wheels! it looks like "bad taste" aftermarket ideas gone awry.
    really, porsche, how could you? 18 or 19 inch wheels fit the overall look and lines of this car; 20 inch wheels draw the eye to the too big wheels. horrible decision, porsche.
