Offended? LOL.

It's April 20th. I think you misplaced your invite.

I know that it really got me to want the sapphire blue even more, so it works! Running out of reasons not to get it!

Offended by a shaky video of some cars? Disdainful because the OP titled his thread "caught testing" instead of "ride to the cafe"? LOL.

I'll think I'll save my outrage for something important.

aussie jimmy

exactly my thoughts!
especially when they mounted that steep curb showing the front lift's truck-like clearance!

I don't, and I do marketing for living and know every trick in the book.

If any of that video was CGI or done with prepped stunt cars, I'd be pissed. If not, it's very informational and welcome.

I love a good conspiracy theory as much as the next guy, but if that vid was done by professionals from "Porsche Marketing", Porsche had better get themselves some new "professonals".

I wouldn't go as far as saying it was professionally done, obviously not... But staged, it would certainly seem so... How many guys randomly sit behind a bush on the side of a street with their DSLR only to have a 5 car convoy of 991 GT3s come by, not once but twice...

Mike in CA

C'mon Chris, virtually every person in the civilized world now carries around a cell phone capable of taking video. We know manufacturers send out convoys of cars for testing, and at the end of a day the people in them might even stop in a town for dinner! The odds of that being captured on video are pretty high, I would think. We don't see where the "cameraman" is standing or what he was doing but he wasn't the only one taking video. At the :07 mark you can see another bystander beyond the bush who is taking his own pictures. It's not that improbable.

Besides, what exactly is the outrage about? Even in the extremely unlikely event this shaky, amateurish effort came from "Porsche Marketing", were people misled by it in some way? Did it depict false information or show the cars doing something they can't really do? OMG, "Porsche Marketing" has produced low quality fake spy footage of cars driving through a town. How dare they manipulate innocent, gullible consumers like that.

To think that is worthy of taking offense, is silly.

aussie jimmy

it looks like it's in spain.
that's where porsche has done all media testing in recent years.

wanna911

They have to do something to keep the buzz going about the car until the release. And with that many cars in a convoy, there is a good chance they have been to wherever they went before and journalists know where to be and when to be there. Any number of scenarios could have led to that. And even if they did stage it, not much of a big deal IMO.

Leave the guys that are looking forward to the car some threads to enjoy. lol.

Let's wait for the first reports on the 991 GT3 from the press ...and it is my guess that we will see all these in these colors in a Spanish enironment
