Default LOVE THE 992

Have been speaking to a friend who has just returned from the Porsche 3 day meet in Spain ,
He was able to fully roadtest the 992 back to back with the Mclaren 570 , previous 991, Mercedes GT ,Aston Martin Vantage .and the Audi R8 Plus .
This was followed by on track driving and extensive local driving .
The 992 in his opinion was superb and was a major step up from the all previous S models .
I am sure with the knowledge that my friend was a Porsche senior salesman you could easily say the opinion was slightly biased but as he has been in the brand for over 25 years and a personal friend who I would truly trust — I can fully accept that his opinion of the car as superb was genuine .
His final comment was that he believed that the 992 would go down in history as being “one of the best “
I personally have a purchased many 911’s over the years and currently looking forward in purchasing the 992 .

Check the specification - particularly the performance options...................they make a large difference to how the car will feel and perform e.g. SPASM, RAS, PDCC, SC PDK+ PTV-E. The reviews we have seen so far have been of top spec cars. By the same token, a car with that type of spec should be good.

Usually every car maker collects direct competitors for its dealer events...

And deleting the model designation. It looks so much cleaner.

Maybe leave just '911' there? Total deletion leaves too much empty real estate IMHO.
