Many, many people would disagree. What is better is relative.

You should wait for the 994 GTS.

I hear that the Sport Response button on the 994 generation will generate winning lottery numbers for you.

That's a HUGE mistake. By they time you get the 994, there will already be rumors about the 994.2 and you wouldn't want to own a dated car.

If we're playing that game.

Now, many many years ago
When I was twenty three
I was married to a widow
Who was pretty as could be
This widow had a grown-up daughter
Had hair of red
My father fell in love with her
And soon the two were wed
This made my dad my son-in-law
And changed my very life
My daughter was my mother
Because she was my father's wife

To complicate the matters
Even though it brought me joy
I soon became the father
Of a bouncing baby boy
My little baby then became
A brother-in-law to dad
And so became my uncle
Though it made me very sad
For if he was my uncle
That also made him the brother
Of the widow's grown-up daughter
Who, of course, was my step-mother

My father's wife then had a son

That kept them on the run
And he became my grandchild
For he was my daughter's son
My wife is now my mother's mother
And it makes me blue
Because, she is my wife
She's my grandmother too

Now, if my wife is my grandmother

Then, I am her grandchild
And every time I think of it
It nearly drives me wild
For now I have become
The strangest case you ever saw
As the husband of my grandmother
I am my own grandpa

I thought the 992.1 has a GPF. Isn’t that the reason for the C40 oil?

Mr. Fusion; just enough power for the flux capacitor.

Joking aside, I am guessing the unveiling would be Q2 2023, with production starting after the August Summer break?

When Porsche launches mk2 for a generation all models become available right away or may take some time or even years for it?

I THINK they start with the base, S, Turbo and/or turbo S.
GTS and GT variants are held towards the end of the cycle (GT s are done sequentially almost).
Also in the face lift the convertible and targas are there right away.
not sure what would happen with all the supply chain disruptions etc

2023 Base Cabriolet will be first up for 992.2… I get the first allocation at my dealer.
