I know this is what they've done in the past, but if all they did was the typical facelift + turbo engine, would you buy a 991.2? I would just buy a used NA 991, and I suspect most of the customer base would. They need to do something more special with the change this time around imo.

On another note whats thoughts on resale without lift and track app?
I have a dedicated track car so cannot imagine tracking it more then a couple of times a yr...if you saw what it does to my race car
My car runs RaceKeeper
so I get my rocks off on that video/data.
I appreciate your input!

The majority still want new 911's, regardless of NA or Turbo. And if Porsche markets it properly, it will have practically no negative effect on sales. In fact, it might have a positive effect.
You, me, others on here... We're the weird ones.

Even with the lift the lip probably going to get wear because sometime people will forget to use it or it can't help at some steep places.

I got the lift, but I never used it in the GT3. I did not get the sport Chrono. My car will never see the track.

It's not just the lip spoiler there is an even lower ground effect under the front which scrapes before the black lip spoiler. If I were just using at track I wouldn't have the lift either but imperative for actual street use. I use mine every day. I agree though more things to go wrong...

What good is buying 10 new chin spoilers on the internet tomorrow when you need to get into a parking lot or driveway today that you can not physically get into? Go home? Cancel your appointments that day and say your car couldn't get into the facility? (for example) Just playing devils advocate here but i literally could not get the car without it.

Also, most rs owners have other cars to drive daily.
As I said just be more careful and plan ahead.
For me I most will take rs for track or Sunday morning drive. So should be ok without lift.

ill admit im a rare bird. I live in Manhattan. How many GT3's, let alone RSs are kept in Manhattan? I have to be one of 2-3 tops. So my need for the lift is partly personal, but i can not get into my garage without it. Most of my usage will be Sunday mornings and the rare track days as well.
