Yes, an Internet or website infomercial. Not like it's going to be in tonight's baseball game.

Lex, the only thing you want to leap on is the girl in the back seat. Enough room?

 

Someone might get their eye poked out. Not safe back there.

 

LMAO

 

Nooooooooooooo!

 

I won't be satisfied with a 911 until I can say "Hey Siri, make me a latte!"

Seriously though, I ended up ordering a 991.2 because of the performance specs. I test drove a 991 Carrera 4 and found the engine performance a little lacking but the handling was incredible. So the 991.2 Carrera S should go pretty well.

 

Haven't the cars in these general ads usually been one of the primary colors - red, blue, yellow, bright green -- so they would leap out at you??

The luggage is Porsche brand so of course it should fit without a problem but what if you have a couple of "normal" rollers?? And, I must have a really big golf bag and/or long shafts as my bag doesn't fit near that easy. Maybe that is a special sized bag --- or maybe I'm just being too cynical...

 

In the USA Porsche sells about 1,000 911s per month. They will still sell 1,000 + 10-15% per month in 2016.

 

I find it interesting that Porsche does not include (or list as an option) for US cars the red warning triangle that is shown in the frunk of the yellow 911. My '12 BMW also mentioned a warning triangle in the owner's manual, but it was not included. Porsche does not mind Americans getting out of their 911s to fix a flat tire, which seems to require a greater skill set than removing, unfolding and deciding where to locate the emergency triangle when you actually do have a flat.

Also, does anybody know exactly what the "sport response" button causes to happen. I looked in the on-line 911 brochure, which says that pushing this button "primes the engine and transmission for the fastest possible unleashing of power." Somehow that does not sound like engineer-speak. Quicker electronic throttle response? Pre-spools the turbos? And for the manual transmission, maybe it turns up the seat heaters and and the volume on the motor sound enhancement?

I love those holes in the rear bumper about as much as I liked the US 5mph bumpers on the 1974 911s. But, I'm such an old cantankerous curmudgeon that I refused to use ATMs when they first appeared.

 

I think that red triangle thingy is a Europe requirement.

The "sport response" button sounds like our current "Sport" and "Sport Plus" buttons. Perhaps just word-smithed now for the 991.2.

 

Who uses ATM's?? Not me.

 

Omg - I could not believe they are showing a place to your phone and your mail. I don't own a porsche yet, but seriously who makes these commercials. I know they trying to get the Ferrari's California Crowd...but wow.

The rear sport exhaust are super ugly.

 

Kind of reminds me of Ducati marketing their Scrambler model to the hipster crowd. I guess the manufacturers are always having to find new markets. Make me feel OLD.

Depends. The biology of color vision is complex. Humans, in regard to being able to see colors, are somewhat unique in that we are trichromatic. That is we are really good at at discerning colors and shades from blue (430 nm) to green (535 nm) to red (590 nm). But this deepends on the available light. At night or in low light we see blues better than reds and in high light reds appear supersaturated. So, if your car ad is in a dark, low light environment blue is a better color and in high light, red. Yellow may be preferred if you can't control the light. It's wavelenth is between green and red and is particularly visible. In darker conditions it stands out better than blue and in lighter conditions it is not as supersaturated (more pleasing) than red.
