As expected based on spy shots and teasers, the internally code-named 992-generation Porsche 911 very subtly builds on the iconic shape that defines the model. Unless you place the 992 alongside its predecessor, you might not notice the redesigned LED headlights, restyled front and rear bumpers, flush electric door handles, or slimmer taillights with full-width LED bar. You might also miss the wider wheel arches that increase overall width by 1.8 inches in the front and grow the rear to the same width as the previous Carrera 4 and GTS (72.9 inches). The bigger wheel arches additionally accommodate a 1.6-inch wider front track. Another thing you won't notice unless you carry a magnet around with you: Every body panel on the new 911 is made of aluminum. Although the 992's styling continues to look familiar, as is usually the case when a new 911 debuts, many of the changes can be found beneath the sheetmetal.
The '09 dash is somewhat less outdated, but '09s are harder to find. Last edited by campbellcj; 05-17-2019 at 04:42 PM. I don't know how one can get or be bored with a 997 Turbo with a 6 speed manual. All of my cars have been modded and two were show cars (competing in national car shows). BloodyHell will never leave my collection of vehicles, just as my custom built hotrod will remain. I reached 700 miles, I purchased the LMS Stage 2 Performance Package, plus aftermarket rims). Look at it this way.. Turbo models. Every generation, Porsche has improved the performance and technology, the looks are subjective. When I competed in the Ford Nationals, Mustangs were a dime a dozen.. After you buy it, tune it with a Ktuner or Hondata flash, buy an Intake System, add a Downpipe and drive. I bet you will not have more fun from stoplight to stoplight on almost anything else.
I am on my 2nd 997.1tt 6spd, awesome car! Great points. I guess my question here is; other cars can do these as well, right? What makes the 911 special? I can't speak to the other cars you mention as comparisons, but would suggest also checking into the GT3 which offers a very, very different driving experience vs. TT. You may gravitate more strongly in one direction or the other. The '09 dash is somewhat less outdated, but '09s are harder to find. Ah, a kindred spirit. NA car. Trust me, a GT3RS is on my radar, specifically a 991. Lotto win comes in today, no question id own a 991 GT3, ill get you one also lol. They aren't in my budget right now and the 997 GT3 doesn't do it for me. Another excellent point. The lack of nannies is a plus imo. I think it adds to the 'raw' feel of the car and is a nice balance for my personal tolerance.
