Christ - 325 rears on 21" rims. Porsche - the holy grail. Words lose me when describing their cars.......absolute art!! I openly admit - I'm jealous as hell of anyone that could jump in that and take it for a cruise through Kangaroo Valley and up to Jenolan Caves and back. Only hope is Lotto:(
.....and Chris Harris....the 'porshe' of motoring journos - that bloke is in a league of his own. |

I'm easy..... auto or manual....... Prefer the auto myself. Even in auto I couldn't do that car justice or pilot the thing anywhere near as good as Chris Harris. The way he drifts those sticky 325's around a corner laying 2 black lines in unison is just artwork.......and ballsy

This will be the PDK box they based their current 7 speed manual on I'm guessing, so it's not really an auto.

its going to be interesting to see the aftermarket Development with Tuners on the 3.8 991's over the next 5-10 years.
With the downsizing to 2.7l, and Tuned in-house, the second hand market of 3.8l will be old tech. But learning from new Porshe R&D and Track /Street Tuners, these old tech base model 991's could end up as good as this ^^( or better ). So likely to be a Supercar in every way. And a budget way of getting that performance/experience. |

I couldn’t stop looking at the second photo.
It’s one of the few times I’ve looked at a car and thought it was absolute perfection. |

If I won the lottery this would seriously be one of the first things to happen but pretty sure they retail for like $360k here in NZ
