Default My 992 experience (A+)

I bought my new 2020 on 2-1-20:

I personally think it is the best of the water cooled cars.

I had a 2014 Porsche 991.1 that is a great car.

The 991.1 had the last of the non-turbo 3.4L engines.

Your 991 car is slate gray?

I went to a 356 Show at Hennessy Porsche and drove home in a 992. This was 2-1-20 as I said. The market is upside down today compared to 2-1-20. I traded a 991.1 for a 992 with some cash.

Two 356 guys were wanting the 991.1. It had 26K miles with a new set of tires. It's easier to trade in than sell separately with the new Ad Val taxes here.

The 992 is perfect with the first service for free.

I love my manual transmission Targa. Buttery smooth, nice throws and smooth engagement. Gearbox is more pleasing to the eye too.

I agree. This is my favorite car I’ve ever owned by a wide margin. Some of my past rides were a 2006 Z06 and 2017 GT350R.
I’ve also grown to like the PDK shifter in its operation.
