Now on the website. Any takers? Quite similar to the 50th.

 

Is manual an option, or is it only available with a glorified automatic?

 

both, I'd pass though.

 

Seems like a good bargain, 130k with all those options, 137k for a GTS 4. I've seen plenty of 991s spec'd north of 160k with similar features, plus a few extra thrills. Maybe Porsche is feeling more heat from Jaguar, Mercedes and others.

But yeah I don't think it has the same impact the 50th anniversary had nor the 997.2 GTS.

 

130k is a bargain. Mine was hitting 150k new and didn't have that coveted GTS designation.
Very competitively priced.

 

Good points.

 

I love the look of the old school black spoiler but the badging on the back is complete over kill.

 

HA! That's insane. And totally agree. If you're going to go 2 rows... "PORSCHE" + "911" looks about right. I suspect that badging is more for the markets outside of europe, for people who get these cars as status symbols. Generally in europe people debadge their cars, are less willing to show off what they actually bought.

 

I'd leave mine with just "PORSCHE"... if others can't tell it's a 911 then they don't care anyway. Definitely too cluttered. It's like the american cars that feel the need to tell you how many valves and litres and bore and firing order and who the designer was.....

 

Hahah exactly... Ain't no body got time for dat...

 

Very tempting car, but I'd have a 50th over the GTS. Same power

 

i feel like im reading a dictionary when i see the amount of scripture on the 991's at times.

 

forget the 911

just go with Porsche GTS

 

Funny I am the opposite, would rather the GTS and the black rear vents. Only reason i would go with the 911/50 would be for the houndstooth on the seats. (Cant believe anyone would order one without! saw a used one for sale without the houndstooth seats and was disappointed!)

 

Yes and no, what we do in Europe is this, if you have the top of the range you keep the badge, if you have the base model you debadge your car.
