I guess I will chime in... since I also drove it...

You have to remember, I drive shit boxes, I am not used to luxury but above all I am a huge Porsche fanboy.

Looks - God damn its a 911, ofc it looks good lol

Handling - Well, we took turns like a normal car, so I don't know. But you can tell the car is capable, been so long since I drove a car where the nose just turns in the moment you breath on the wheel.

Acceleration - we barely broke the speed limit, but maybe or maybe not I passed a black BMW on the wrong side of a single yellow line, showing how much I wasn't ready, I hit the limiter twice, didn't realize even a base Carrera will rev up that fast in Sport Plus with the 20 second overboost active.

From a performance standpoint, you don't need anything more, yes there are alot more faster cars around, but I cant even keep up with the PDK, now imagine I have the manual in Carrera T, it will just be hitting the limiter all day long....

Experience - It is RAW and I love it, maybe I came from shitty cars, but I find it dailyable, I did tell my wife she will hate it... still... I can see it as my forever car to be honest, if that is where my motoring peaks, I will be totally okay with that.

Price - it is stupid, you should never buy new in BC, $190K + taxes = $256,400 out the door. Buy used, save the LST at least, and if want to "pick up a used Taycan, Cayenne PHEV to trade in" etc etc...

Lastly - Porsche should listen to Badhobz more than people like me, he can actually pull the trigger if the car ticks all the right boxes hahaha, where as I can praise how much I like it, and yet never be in the office jogging down my name on that doted line.



And yes yes, I know this is not the right gen, or the right car, or the stock exhaust, but I am just saying, some of the flat 6 can sound good... you just need to close your eye and swipe your card lolol

I'm not a car guy and I have zero experience with nice cars. I've owned 2 Mazda's and currently own an Acura and Toyota, all regular cars and from a driving experience I've driven friends BMW, Audi's, and Telsa? lol again just some fairly regular stuff none of the super high end sport models. That said, Porsche's look damn nice to me and I've always thought if I suddenly became balling out of control I'd just get one as a daily driver because it felt like a crazy car that you can actually drive all the time unlike a Lambo or something. I'll never be that balling though and in the end I just need something pretty vanilla that gets me from point A to B.

Any of you want my old all seasons for $125? 205/55/16. 6/32nds even wear on all 4 tires.

Too lazy to make a separate thread with photos, but I could text you some if you want.
