I knew I should have gone for a standard base Carrera rather than this!

…is that one not a standard one then Arif??

it’s beautiful in any event, but then I think all 911’s are - yours is just a “bit” quicker!!

I like the nostrils on the side of rear wheel arches. Very distinctive look… it just needs to spit some fire and I am done

I absolutely agree with NickP about the 2.0 718. I too have a 718 daily runner & the sheer pleasure I get from the acceleration, the handling, the ride & involvement are just pure Porsche attributes. In my opinion it offers incredible value for money & so much enjoyment, especially with that manual gearbox.

It's a slippery slope to go down.. base spec car is % percent.. a GR86 is even smaller % and still NA/RWD/Manual.. an i20N is even smaller % and still fun.. a Dacia is even smaller still % and still gets you from A to B.. nah - the S/T is a lovely bit of kit. Those who are buying one to drive will get their monies worth, the same way I enjoy a mechanical watch for special occasions.

Spot on - my sentiments exactly.

I agree entirely. Just a matter of where we are on the scale.
I have bought a base 992 but this is MY GT3 or Turbo, others will have other cars up or down the scale which will be THEIR Turbo.
I suppose it really doesn’t matter what the car is as long as it gives you pride and pleasure to own and drive it and we should all celebrate that

Spot-on! As long as we live within our means, we should aim to have some harmless guilty pleasures, like cars, watches, bicycles… whatever makes life better!
