Default 992 - What’s New...

More 992 news ahead of tomorrow’s reveal...this one focuses on the variations! A few oddities, the exhaust tips aren’t physically connected to the muffler, the active rear spoiler extends the width of the rear deck lid (not sure how I feel about that), there’s a wet mode for driving in the rain/wet (so much for the ‘never driven in rain’ seller ad comment), 8-speed PDK, has night vision (just like KITT) and I read that the interior feels ‘plasticky’ (there goes the 1 point edge over Corvette compares in the various auto mags). I’m sure I’ll like the 992 however I’m waiting for the GT variants to really get excited.

I think this info has already been discussed here in different threads. Nothing new.

Yeah, the info was all over the place, figured we’d focus it all in a single thread ahead of the LA auto show tomorrow

Sorry, but all of those points have been discussed ad nauseum already. Including a link to that article. None of that is news.
