Can you elaborate more? Was it the lack of turbo lag or something else that impressed the most.

If it's so capable with the hybrid assist will it be faster round a track than a .2 gt3?

as I said before -- when we will see GTS on the road everybody wants to have this power machine .... this will be a new era

(you cannot compare a gt3 with a gts or turbo s. gt3 is mostly for the racetrack)

no

No, these were sales and service guys that drove the car over in Spain a while back. My GTS cab cab is due to finish building on 14th of this month, really looking forward to it.

congrats!!! Please let us know what she’s like to own! Did you get innodrive or any “touring” options?

Didn't opt for innodrive as I think it's pointless on a sportscar.
Did, however, tick most other options as adaptive cruise, night view assist and surround view along with sport design package carbon, LED matrix etc.

Will be cool to get it on the road.

I don’t know where they get the idea TT/TTS is a grand tourer. TT/TTS never tracked and driven on regular roads feels tame but does not scratch the surface of capability of the car especially medium or high speed tracks. It decimates nearly everything. It’s hard to explain until you drive one on a race circuit. I am in advanced group with a turbo (non s) stock suspension except Cup2s. remember I am slower than S but I had to move up from inters out of pure performance differential. Yes it may not be able to corner as fast as a gt3 but you can get on the power much earlier and corner exit is on another level. GTS will not have the same ungodly grip even with hybrid. It’s not the power but how you put the power down plus in sport+ lag is nearly defeated. 992.2 closes the gap for sure but is it better ? I’m not so sure.

I got the same last week, they must have given out a batch of 4’s. I am finally going to DD a 911, getting too old to have it be a weekend car. I picked up a 2024 T to drive until the GTS comes in, loving it.

Could never drive a 911 to construction sites and job meetings. In the office all day now so I can enjoy it every day.

Hehe. I don't drive my 911 to my office because I don't want to look like Lumbergh from Office Space.
Yeahhh.... Did you get that memo about the new cover sheets for the TPS reports?

Lovely car, but haven’t had much chance to drive it as winter is almost here and roads are slippery, so waiting for my winter tires.
