Porsche is going to sell a lot of 991.2s. More than they did the 991.1s. Just watch.

Is that sapphire blue? If it is, that looks like an exact replica of my car which lands in Halifax tomorrow.

EPA fuel economy of 22/28 is not much improvement over 19/27 for the 2015 S

I saw that too. But, remember power went up by 20 HP. I bet this thing will get over 35 mpg on the highway cruising in 7th at 72 mph.

Just for comparison, my gts got 30.5 mpgs cruising at 83 from Denver to Chicago, about 1000 miles.So maybe a non power kit and low 70s could yield 35.

The Singer pulled in just after we arrived and was very cool. SA said the .2's were heading over to the Amelia Island event for the weekend and we did not ask for a test drive or were we offered. Sorry did not notice what tires the .2's were wearing but might get another look this weekend and report back. Liked the new DRL's, front grill treatments, (especially the center grill), venting turbo slats out back, and the new tail lights. First thing SA said was "the new cars sound great". T
