Default 992 Sport Classic
I went to Sportscar Together Fest in Indy yesterday. In the Zentrum building at IMS, they had this Sports Classic. It is impressive. Pics dont do it justice. That interior!!

I totally agree with you! Love it from every angle... specially the rear fenders with no air ducts, and the duck tail, and the color which has slight a metallic glitter that photos don't show...

Am I the only one that thinks the Sport Classic is a pure money grab and not all that impressive for the price? I get the allure of the uniqueness but for the price, a GT3 manual or tuned GTS manual makes more sense. I love 911’s, but someone convince me on the price for this car....

More hp than both. More streetable than GT3. And in a manual. Seems like a winner to me!

To that point, name the last RWD Turbo manual made by Porsche?

So here’s my point as far as money grab....Take a Turbo S, detune it by 100hp, add a manual, add some unique body panels, then make it the range topping $$ offering by $60K over a Turbo S?
Its the detuning then jacking up the MSRP that rubs me the wrong way. If it sounded like the GT3, or hell, even the 3.0T, it could be forgiven. Maybe I’m the minority in that opinion.
Flame suit on.

Those amber side markers are so heinous on that color. I hope that you have the dealer replace them with the clear versions by Feb 19.

Pretty sure that the detuning was required to not grenade the MT.

the Sport Classic is detuned because it has to much power for a RWD car, besides getting a manual it has no 4 wheel drive, customers killing themselves on cars is bad for business so Porsche detuned it a bit for that purpose, good news it also lost some weight....
