Who are they trying to appeal to?? The hipster clubber crowd?? Let us hear the damn car, see it driving, and not some dance music with a bearded hipster.

I would make the change for these alone.. Let alone the other freaking amazing changes.. Lets face it its pretty much a 911R minus 50Hp and a few light bits at this level.
Manual, Sunroof Delete, Throw some GT3 Wheels and some stickers on it lol

Very entertaining comments on the new GTS. We did not expect an NA engine, so I suppose that we are not disappointed. Hey, by 2030 Germany requires all electric vehicles so we should be happy there is still an exhaust note. (I read that Porsche sound engineers are somehow trying to introduce engine/motor sound in the Mission E.) Yes, the Porsche video is odd. It seems that somebody in Porsche marketing has a good sense of humor.

The Porsche marketing strategy is brilliant. GTS variants are definitely the best value, unless you don't want CL wheels, although you may be able to opt for five lug wheels as with the TT, but I have not checked the configurator. For those who want performance, do not need the latest offering and do not want to pay up for a 991.2 GTS, I humbly suggest looking at a CPO'd 991 TTS.

The Germans must be crazy if they think in 13 years they will only be producing electric cars.

I know that's what they said, but the rest of the world will be making cars buyers want. They seem to have their priorities wrong as of late.
