[QUOTE=Golden Boy;14687160]Another classic. Make sure not to drive it!
Actually, I drive all my cars, whether they can become a future classic or not. I think the Touring just rendered the R to be a collector car rather than a purist’s dream, as the Touring will be mechanically superior in every way.
i think I will buy into my own silly idea and order a Touring just in case I actually like it more than my non-Touring GT3. Not having that wing blocking my rear vision is a pretty good perk. I would order it with 18 ways just to make it suit the name better. After all, Grand Touring to me means long distance comfort, and for me, the 18-way provides that way more than the LWB. A perfect daily driver.

Reason: Paragraph organizing
I think that this a car that is a kind of reference when it is produced and stays a reference of the time period. It is not only a matter of price and rarity.
Examples:
VW Golf GTI, first generation
Audi ur-Quattro.
911 Carrera RS 2.7
The day that European Mfr stop making ICE sports cars, then everything before it could be considered a classic to the future generation of car enthusiasts that will grow up as teens with posters of Lambos, Ferrari's, and Porches, yet when they can finally afford it, only the electric cars are available. Imagine in 2040, the car scene will be quite different than today

The sounds, that will be the most depressing thing. Sure performance will always be key and electric will give that, but the sounds of the modern sports cars will all be lost "like tears in the rain". Firing up the old sports cars in the future will be the single most intoxicating thing in 2040. I better start buying up my favorites now...

Porsche Instagram'd the Sports Classic hinting at a new one: so basically a limited edition GT3.2 with a duck tail, likely the last limited 991 before the 992 launch. We shall see.

Since we are fewer than 5 years from the 50th Anniversary Carrera RS, I think they'll save the ducktail for that...
