This document is literally my favorite part of any new German car launch. I could spend hours reading about things like bearings, intakes, driveshafts, turbos, etc. Thank You!

Filled with little gems like the magnesium roof which mirrors the hood creases - probably going to be on the GT3...

Thanks for link. Very interesting, especially the model tree that shows both a 992 Targa and a 718 Spyder.

Oh man that is a beauty. I'm a bit concerned about not being able to engage sport mode in municipalities. What fun is that?

Sorry to hijack 992 thread, but does anyone have the full press kit pdf's for a 991.1?

Love this!

Thank you! Curse you! I just spent the last 2 hours absorbing, and I'm about 1/3 the way done. Really answers all of the detailed differences between 992 and 991.2. Sincerely, thank you!
