Good video, it's Speed Yellow by the way. I don't like the script on its arse, what's that about Porsche ?

Very nice. Its amazing how flat they are through the corners with PDCC. I get a 991 Carrera S for a day on the 2 March. Can't wait to have a go. I wonder if its good enough to make me part with my turbo?!

They've scrapped Speed Yellow for the 991 - it's 'Racing Yellow' now. Which sounds pretty crap IMO.

Are the Cab's rear seats still compromised? The rear looks very tight with vertical backrests.

not sure there is any improvement there which is a disappointment given that I think the car is a little longer!

Please tell me that is not true yikes speed yellow is such a historic colour particullary in their racing history , Christ they will be putting VW badges on the bonnet next frown


Just checked the Porsche site, and sure enough it's now called racing yellow, it looks exactly like the speed yellow does any one know if it's just a name change ? Wonder if they have dropped the speed name as speed kills biggrin

racing yellow is nothing like as special as speed yellow.

ry is a bit chav, too bright and lacks depth -- it's the sort of colour you put on Nissan Micras.

sy had substance, energy and soul. it's a real loss.

It is not the same colour, the mustard tinge has gone.

The yellow is now a lighter Lambo/Ferrari type shade.

Good video but what's up with that stupid camera lense

The car sounds and looks great but agree with the badge comments, definitely a delete option
