Porsche keep mentioning the "whale tail" in their marketing but the rear wing has 0 angle, it is looks completely flat, and probably just plastic.

A bit disappointing for me compared to the 991 Exclusive car which had a HP bump, lots of carbon body kit, so some engineering effort. Unlike the 992 which just has some lazy marketing dept tweaks.

I agree with you. Just a few pieces of plaid cloth plus a badge will become a limited edition. That's too simple for me. I can mass-produce the limited edition.

Are you really considering putting a 50 year anniversary badge on a non anniversary car? Please don't.

I was 50/50 on it. My car is a 2024 TTS . The anniversary cars will actually be 50 year anniversary +1, right? I won’t because you said something.

Not sure if this is a good price, just relaying a message. I have a FL store with an allocation for a Turbo 50. Must be a FL resident and willing to finance for 6 months, 35k over MSRP total.

horrible price imo. This is just a Turbo S with a numbered badge right? If all the Turbo 50’s included a PTS slot, this would be a fair price.

I’ve been offered one at 50k ADM with PTS.

I was considering it until I saw this thread.

worth it?

Are you in the market for a turbo S currently? If yes and PTS is important, I’d probably do it.

I was intrigued by the exclusivity of the 50th anniversary just like I enjoy my PTS 911’s vs non PTS cars.

this would be my 5th 911 in the past 3 years and I’ve never paid over msrp.

I understand on the exclusive models (Dakar, S/T, etc) paying an ADM - however on this model I wasn’t sure if it was warranted.
