Porsche should take note that a old design like a Vantage all be it a new car model is winning in this poll.

I don't get the new Porsche soft line up, I have driven them all bar the new Turbo and GT3 and none are really any fun.
They seem to be aiming at the Jag Market and Jag want the younger market lol.

How ever good the new 991 GT3 is it's still an auto so would not even be on my wish list as my fun weekend and drivers car.

owning a 991 now would make me feel over 50, which is what I thought Aston and Jag did best.

Standard Boxsters, Caymans and 991's are all a bit meh

And I hate the "meh" saying but Porsche makes me say this word ATM.

Why? It's not even a real-world question. If it had been "Imagine you had just worked your nuts off and had to plonk down £140k of your own hard-earned money on one of these cars, which one would you buy" then that would change the outcome somehow.
I doubt it, many people have orders for a Vantage v12 S and the soft top always sell out.

for people who buy new with that sort of money to spend and wanting a car which look and sounds cool the V12 S wins without question.

I wonder if the new Pistonheads review will give the Aston a few more votes today

Where do you get to test drive a 991 Gt3 ?

Never even seen one let alone let loose in one.
