There have been previous threads about these two reviews. STG991 will go crazy. He doesn't like duplicating threads.

Archimedes

Seriously though, how hard is it at least scan the thread titles on the first page before starting a new one?

CommonProject

maybe he's compiling all the reviews in one place and will be adding on to it, no need to be so harsh

OMG Noooooo....

But sometimes we regretted not being in a somewhat simpler, more old-school 991.1 GTS. And that's telling.

Dodaleca

But it's not "We ALWAYS regretted not being in a somewhat simpler, more old-school 991.1 GTS."

Again things have changed but overall the reviews seem to show a preference for the newer version.

coxswain

Yes, it seems that iambon is compiling all the new reviews. So this thread is worthwhile.

This will be a weapon on the German Autobahn... And over the alpine passes. Finally an engine that suits the new GT concept!

My sentiments also. This car will not suffer in the Alps or the little streets of Garmisch-Partenkirchen. The final nail in the "911 is a sports car" coffin.

So, the first tests find that it is faster, more responsive, has better handling, returns the old school steering feel, comes with a manual or PDK-S revisions.

This a lot to look past to rehash the sentiment that has accompanied every new Porsche since the 356 was put to bed.

I want one. I like low end torque and this new power train sounds like a winner to me.

Will 991.1 values plummet with all of the positive reviews?

rkwfxd

Well, Ive had talks with a 2015 GTS owner who is possibly looking to sell because five months ago he paid $155,000 and now has been told its only worth about $105,000 and $100,000 or less once the 991.2s hit the showrooms.

So..... As much as I like the 991.2, if I can get a killer deal on a 991 I might pick one up.

The flip side of this though is that no matter what the reviews say there will always be die hard NA engine enthusiasts willing to pay a premium for a clean 991.

Drifting

That guy must have been talking to a dealer, because there are plenty of private buyers who will pay a lot more for the last greatest NA 911.

GTS owners in particular will be fine. They will hold their value better than the regular 911s.

WernerE

Surely you jest. These reviews will do NOTHING to diminish the desirability of the N/A motors in the 991.1. Me, I have ZERO interest in the 991.2, although I'm sure they're nice cars.
