992 is not a 911?
#61
You want it all. The modern, high performance, slick production sports car that the 992 is, but also a back to basics, hard core single purpose sports car.
We've had threads on this topic before. I feel ridiculous saying it, but the only solution (IMO) is to have two sports cars. A sports car that can comfortably be daily driven and yet be the ideal point A to point A weekend car doesn't exist.
The thing is - I want my weekend car to be an event. I like that the transmission jerks if you don't have the right touch. I like that the gears rattle at idle and the exhaust is loud and spits on an overrun. I don't even have a radio in mine, There is no way you can have a car that can be used as a regular car and also be an event. The good thing is that a second sports car doesn't have to be expensive to tick those boxes, but it's definitely not for everyone. Otherwise, you just have to make peace with a compromise, one way or the other.
