So you want a v8 and you want a 911?

Love a newer Porsche as well, not an angle I don’t like on them. And, like the way the wheels look so much bigger and fill the wheel arches properly, not like on the GT.

Agree latest 911 looks pretty amazing. The only thing I don’t like is the rear retractable spoiler thing they put on it. Looks horrid when it is up and spoils the lines. Great looking 911 though.

My favourite is the 991 though. 911 GTS would make a lovely daily drive.….991.1 or 991.2.

My friend has a 996 4 drop top and for a car that old it still feels tight and nibble. The gear change amazed me when I had a drive as expected it to feel old and not that tight but it was a delight even after all these years. He paid 16k for it a year ago with 56k in the clock. a13ffc28-341f-4561-8e1a-5c80c59a16bb.jpeg

I really like the spoiler, think my mate does as well, as he chooses to park it in public places with it still up…..as can be seen in the pics I posted :)

No I won’t…just in case I like it :p
I fell for the trap unfortunately… I was never into 911 exactly for the reason - they all looked the same - must be the easiest job to be a 911 body designer!

I have to admit that a 911 does handles better than even the Strad, but it is lacking a sense of occasion behind the wheel, not to mention the look and the sound !

2 completely different cars really !
