What is the best 911 that you Porsche have built in 2018
Discussion
Serious question. Ignoring the restricted availability of the GT, what is the ‘BEST’ 911 that Porsche have built this year?
Is it the GT2RS with it’s bonkers performance?
Is it the GT3RS with it’s screaming normally aspirated engine and race derived aero, suspension and engine?
Is it the GT3 which balances the best of the ‘normal’ carrera’s with the track focus of the RS?
Could it be the Turbo, with it’s super car performance in any weather combined with every day useability?
Or the GTS which takes the Carrera S and gives it that special edge?
Or the T which answers the enthusiasts demand for back to basics 911’s
Or the cooking Carrera and Carrera S models with their every day practicality and superb driving dynamics?
And for top trumps - who’s had them all????

Clearly the base carrera, haha!
It's all about perspective. In comparison to my 435d it's a wonderful driving experience. For a GT3 owner it would be considered dull, which I'm sure I would agree with also if I had the pleasure of owning one. I had it dropped back the other day from the local OPC and the driver said he loved driving it, with its manual box being so unusual in a carrera in my locality.
Would I take a 911R or a 991 GT3 touring if I could? Absolutely! I'm still happy enough in the boggo one though. I might turn it into a carrera 'Litchfield' at some point.
