If this is true then you should listen to your own advice and trade in your GT3 for a C8.

I've had it nearly 2 years and lost next to nothing to depreciation. Probably less than what I'd lose rolling off the lot with the 992.

Configurator is up

SamD

Yes, but still with no MT. Hadn't the video and published reviews mostly all related the MT would be released ICW the C2?

Price up over 6000 and no manual yet. 379hp

I have found the next car for my wife. The base coupe with pdk under $100k with slight discount should be perfect. It should be as quick as the 911T but with more comfort and tech.

The horsepower increase is deceptive. The 992 base model is actually 15 hp up on the 991.2 base, but Porsche has changed the way it is rating power in the US.

For some years, Porsche has stated that the US power output in English HP was the same as the German output in PS. This was, of course, impossible, since an English HP is about 1.4% more powerful than a German PS--550 ft-lbs of work per second versus 75 kg-m (542.6 ft-lbs) of work per second. The justification was that Porsche was very conservative with its power ratings, so that while just about every car exceeded the claimed PS output in Europe, the cars would at least average their HP output in America.

Now Porsche, and Audi as well, has chosen to paly it straight, perhaps due to Dieselgate and its fallout throughout the VW empire.

If you go by the kW ratings, which are universal, this ambiguity never existed. Based on that:

The 991.2 base was rated at 272 kW, which is equal to 364.75 HP. The 992 base is rated at 283 kW, or 379.5 HP, for an increase of 14.8 HP.

The 991.2 S was rated at 309 kW, which is equal to 414.4 HP. The 992 S is rated at 331 kW, or 443.9 HP, for an increase of 29.5 HP.

Of course this means that the previously stated power for the 991.1s, all of the 997s and the 996s, including Turbo and GT models, all have to be downrated to match the new scheme. How fun.

In the past, the C4 has been introduced with the base C2. Any word yet on the 992 C4? Will there be one?

CaymanSinAR

The article I read said the C4 would debut soon.

Drifting

Why is this being moved? Doesn’t it belong in the 992 section?

mb1

I think they consolidated two base 992 threads, but didn't move it out of the 992 section.

Wait until you add some options ..

Zoefhaus

Don't know why you guys are complaining about the price...

Base 992 price in Belgium: 118.800 USD / cabriolet: 134.800 USD
In the Netherlands: 156.000 USD (coupe) / 173.800 USD (cabriolet)

How much do people expect the 992 911 Carrera S and Carrera Base lose in depreciation in 3 years? 50%?
