I'm not sure I believe it as we see so many mules out there. On the flip side, I agree they just launched a few new models (T, Dakar, GT3RS) so it could make sense that we get one more year of .1
Yes … and the ST model is coming too on basis of the 992.1.

Wasn’t this something that Porsche had applied for some kind of patent on or announced they were working on?
Mercedes is doing this for peones C63

Sounds very, very realistic (though I think technical details might be wrong). Worth looking back at this post to see how accurate it ended up being!

I’m sure ChatGPT is just summarizing what we have all been speculating and typing on here for months! I guarantee you that it ingests Rennlist quite regularly as it’s a great resource for anything Porsche related!

I do wonder what it learns when we talk about it. Does it get self-conscious? Can it finally settle if RAS is worth it?!

Emphasis on fake. Wrong on just about every level. If you are going to put together a fantasy, make it believable, good, or both. And don't use BMW's marketing line in your press release.

Colours are such a personal choice which inevitably creates endless debates.
I miss both Lava Orange and Midnight Blue Metallic. I think Agate Grey has been around for quite a while now and Crayon had its time.
Really curious to see what surprises 992.2 will bring us

I'd rather see the return of Lime Gold Metallic.

And that's was about as close to urine as one could get on a car.
