Elaborate or just explain with more simple words, was the 997.2 not good in aggressive conditions? Full cup cables? What is POS?

Heres just guessing, and soon we will now, but what might be the weightsave from .1 to .2? I guess the .1 weight was 1500kg!?
The .2 regular carrera s weighs at 1440kg, They just have to get the weigh down a bit for the gt3 imo!?

CANT WAIT til Geneve!

I don't know if they are parts - they should be IMO. But one never knows with Porsche.

I don't think they've translated that into FXZ yet, so my guess is no.

Wow, who would've thought the Panamera was in the top 5.

That made me lose all faith in their little video series. There's ZERO way it deserves to be there, even with it's cool extending wings feature.

I mean... they DIDN'T include the 918 wing which stands up and acts as an air brake.

Stupid list. Why would the GT4 be there before any GT3RS?

don't take them too serious.

it's a Porsche FB post. they have to address every customer. if a Maccan would have a wing it would be also within those top5.

but nevertheless the current panamera spoiler is something "special".
