I’m happy to see that some of us are wide awake to what’s is happening with Porsche the and 992 . I'm over on other posts getting straight up insulted... |
Seat heaters and seat coolers:
https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...e0b75a502.jpeg Some of the interior shots have both seat heating and seat cooling - others have just seat heating. In the second case, the console looks like it doesn't have the button cutouts when there is no seat cooling. Could this mean Porsche is no longer installing our beloved blank buttons??? Oh - but wait - now look at the one with the row of 5 buttons under the touch screen - two of them have diamond shapes! https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...0043df4b4c.jpg Could it be that "Diamonds are the new Blanks" ? |

^ You've got to be kidding - Mazda's mis-matched center vents have to be one of the worst new car interior designs out there, not to mention the me-too fake iPad.

The Ipad sucks, but so does any screen in a car. BMW Z4 wins that battle. The best way to integrate as screen is to hide it. https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...6b91d5cfd1.jpg All you need is sticky backed velcro, and you can forget that screen even exists. |
^ Above you raved about the dash...not the console, handbrake, or cup holders. You put a Miata or Spider interior...with features to match...into a $125-200k Porsche and not one person will buy it. Let's get real here.

As for 100k cars, simplistic quality should rule Porsche interiors. The 996 was a break from that, though they eventually made a return to form. |

Here's the interior of a 250k 488 GTB that has no problem selling incredibly well without gimmicky luxury car BS that Porsche loves sprinkling every car with now. Aside from the Italian over the stop styling the interior is no nonsense and incredibly functional. That's what a 992 interior should have been striving for but instead we get the interior of some silly SUV or luxo barge. https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...c51b5a52bd.jpg |
Ferrari sells like 9K cars worldwide. Porsche sells like 10K 911's just in the USA.
911's are a mass produced sports car and they want to have a very wide audience for it. Ferrari can cater to a more niche customer. |
