With the exception of the gt3rs's I don't really like their lineup. Most people will never have the experience of driving a 993 or older vintage. If they did I think they'll realise the difference.
Have you actually driven a 993? It may be the most overhyped sports car on the planet. The 997 I replaced it with at the time was a better car in literally every way possible except it didn’t have the Porsche “last air cooled” wanker card to play.
