Meditations on peak Porsche.

I just got an unsolicited trade-in/sell offer from my dealership for the GT3 touring. Basically i could trade it straight up for a GT4 RS or an extremely clean, low mile 993 Turbo 🤔

Spyder RS is what you want.

Spyder RS is what you want.

Ragtops are for poseurs.

Spoiler

j/k. Mostly

Not the Spyder RS. Its manual top is so fussy that poseurs will be scared off. Only owners willing to put up with this brand of purist pain in the ash performance art need apply.

(Which means the car is for a different kind of poseur but that’s not the point!!)

I put a deposit down on a Smart #1 Brabus, that may or may not replace my Giulia QV. Despite my hatred of Musk and Tesla, I was almost tempted by the Model 3 Highland - nicer front shape, more solid overall but ruined by the lack of indicator stalk and gear lever. My Polestar 2 journey also never got started because although they improved mileage etc for the 2024 models, I didn't like the new front end (they did away with the fake grill). So I might be driving an EV in a few months.

It’s pickup day…pics to come

My local dealer has a 992 GT3 RS in. Sorry for the bad lighting but the placement of the car in front of that window didn’t leave me anything to work with.

Asking price $504k!

 

[jbarwick]

So which car you going with? My guess is RS

 

[HRoi]

I think I’m sticking with the Touring. I picked it up from service this morning when i took that pic. I do like the GT4 RS but i already have a Cayman….

Btw two GT’s with major service due this year = $9k total. Oof. I heard people complaining about the C8 Corvette’s service costing $500 the other day…

That is one gaudy wing.

That's how you show people you have a peak Porsche. @PhilKenSebben would agree with me.

Interesting how you chose a low front shot to share.

992 RS is so fugly.

Unless you're tracking the car, I have no idea why anyone would buy one over say a Pista.
