Fit and finish


My Dislikes:

Overall Im very impressed. P has indeed raised the bar.

True. Way too much alphabet soup on the back end. But easily enough removed.

I know 10 mins is not much, but, what did you like about the handling and what did you like/not-like about the new steering feedback feel?

I drove entirely on side streets w/ a lot bumps and uneven surfaces. I was taken back on how well the suspension soaked it all up. Handling was just a impressive-very little nose dive and just corners FLAT. PLANTED is the word I would use. Of course some 911 fans will not like this.

I had mixed feelings about the new electric steering hence no comment above. However, I did like the fact it had a firmer feel (less assist?) than my 997.2. On the other hand, there was less feedback during cornering. The "dancing in the hands " feel of the 997 wasnt present.

Its been reported that new 991s PDK is just as fast at the GT3. Whats interesting is that the GT3 wears cup tires.

I can see a used 991 in my future!
