That's a good video of the 991.2 exhaust - it actually sounds really good there. I am surprised.

This weekend I'll test drive 992 c2s. Given the underwhelming experience I had with the boxster, I can only guess now that 911 is probably also overrated. I fail to see why so many articles say that 718 and m2 are competitors. They are not even in the same price range. |

Second, the M2 Comp starts at $58k USD and a base 718 Cayman starts at $56k sooo not sure how you wouldn't consider that the same price range. Looks pretty damn close to me. However I don't think most folks would choose a base 718...you need to jump straight to an S to even have a real comparison and then you're talking $69k...which is pretty close to the M2 price and most people that can afford these cars aren't sweating $10k. Third, and I'll end with this, comparing a base 4-banger 718 to a 911 is like comparing apples to pineapples. I hope the 992 blows you away (I'm sure it will...especially compared to the 4-banger 718).

I've not driven a GTR, but I've had lots of time in Porsche and find them to be a well sorted sports car, so I'm not sure why all the hate for them from you. But to each his own, they are two very different cars to be sure. |

You're responding to a post from 2015 😄
And the entire post is about how he buys (and gets rid of) cars based on the attention he gets. Hopefully by now he's discovered the wonders of penile enlargement surgery |

I am sure the thread starter has long made his decision, but heck, it's an excuse to look at 911s:
Lots of 4Ses in these Autobahn videos (Filmed with a BMW, by the way - this is still a bimmer forum). |
