i really dont know what the deal is with the 911. ive never had any real desire to own them even after driving a 997, owning a 996 briefly, and tasted the 991, 992, in all kinds of flavors. GTS, Turbo, CS4, etc.

The new ones are way too soft (didnt try the GT3 RS. im sure thats buttoned down), borderline ratrolla soft. The steering is dead now compared to what the 997's have but thats the same with all modern cars..... EXCEPT THE FK8!!!! that thing actually has some texture surprisingly.

I disliked the 996 so much that i traded it in for a Cadillac CTS hahah

(i wanted a matrix inspired land barge).

Although it was a piece of shit 996 CS2 that was very very well used, but i still disliked everything about it. Didnt like the handling at the limit, felt dangerous at all times due to that rear ass engine, didn't like the way the turn in was so light, once again due to ass engine, and didnt like that at anytime it would step out under throttle when you go around the corner. It also rode like shit and everything was super expensive to fix.

calm your tits, it wasnt a real turbo, just fake turbo bits.

The new ones are better, but the new ones will have the same issues as my ratrolla. Ultimately a let down (unless maybe you get in the GT3-RS spec). But at that price, whats the point? The damn car is turning into a commodity item like a ferrari or lambo where if you put more than 10,000kms on it, its value becomes trash. All the investors are snatching them up and holding them for profit instead of driving them.

I think a GR corolla, or the new CTR will be just as much fun but a fraction of the cost.
