      @@1996ChevroletImpalaSS you will absolutely not feel 5 Kg difference. The weight of the driver can differ by much more than 5 KG. In a car this heavy, 5 KG is nothing. This is totally disregarding the fact that this new car has a wider track, slightly more power, even quicker gear box and much better front end turn in due to double wishbone suspension. When all this is considered, 5 KG is less than nothing

    I love that naturally aspirated flat 6. I’d like to hear a direct comparison with the new naturally aspirated flat plane crank V8 in the 2023 Z06. That engine revs to 8600 RPM. It’s the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 ever in a production car.

      @@Codatronic it’s a much different type of sound than the throaty muscle car of the past. So it’s appropriate to have a high revving, high pitched sound given that this is now a mid engine car. I wouldn’t say it’s ruined anything. The past is the past. The old sound just doesn’t match up with the mid engine design.

    Fantastic car - my choice would be the 991.2 though. Other than the double wishbone up front the cars are basically the same except the looks. 991.2 GT3 looks FAR better than the 992.

  • @kirksheldon7342
    @kirksheldon7342 2 года назад +1

    I’ve not heard of a desire by the public to have ever larger sports cars. I expect that the great increase in size over 997 Gen. II of 991s and 992, is forced upon Porsche, in order to pass more and more stringent crash tests. I don’t know how Lotus get away with it, with Exige and Else, but seeing as they are lighter, they only have to hit, or in side impact tests, be hit, by concrete blocks of the same mass as the car.
    Perhaps surveys of Porsche owners showed a demand for more presence on the road. I know not, but think 996/997, was as large as the 911 needed to be.

      It makes me wonder if Porsche Engineers took Adderall and wanted to make the lightest 911 of this generation, less rules and regs limiting them, how light that car would be.. Or where it would be flimsy or rigid..

    • @improcrastinating8063
      @improcrastinating8063 2 года назад +1

      @@romeolambo9958 Nope, actually the particulate filter is part of the exhaust which is lighter overall. The OPF reduces sound as a side effect, so the side baffles were eliminted and the overall weight is less than 991 non-OPF system. The weight primarily comes from the chassis simply being larger and stiffer

      @@ohroonoko I think the logic is that the cayman could be smaller too etc. But unfortunately people want obese cars so there’s space inside, easy to get and out of etc. Plus no one other than proper mental enthusiasts cares about the weight so companies go after more profit and less engineering and less genuine progress.
