Here it is, out in the wild!
Any thoughts on what the launch colour might be? could be a black, don't know if they have ever used black for launch?




And spy shots of the 992.2 RS

is it true that the starting OTR price will be starting £107k? I know that some items are now standard like folding door mirrors, LED headlights, still seems steep.

Copying what other manufacturers have been doing for years by building allowance for discounts on main stream models into the price (look at price of BMWs Mercs JLR and the discount off from new) or for lower interest rates on new models, same with white goods etc you pay the same price for a tv , sofa etc cash as someone taking out interest free over 36 months so the interest is built into the RRP

My Euro dealer has consistently said it’s a €10k to €12k price increase on Base & S, so looks like a £106/107k base starting point with some items now standard. Sure PTS will get another leg up, soon Porsche will do a Ferrari and start charging for all paints. Couple more hours and we will know.

What gets up my goat is a basic Vw group hire car has adaptive cruise , warnings of overtake on the mirrors and a whole host of other stuff I have likely not noticed as every single one of those is extra on a 911!

Can now watch it on record and skip the dull bits.

I feel like Porsche are slowly but surely trying to turn the 911 into a Marcos LM600. Wait until the 911 999.5 or something.

Very strange presentation, the Aussie woman is obviously reading scripted questions, but written as though it as an impromptu conversation.

Also he says 50Kg as if it is nothing, 50Kg is a huge amount to a car that is already overweight.

Also, I very much dislike that is not an analogue tachometer.

Will this car be available with a manual gearbox?
