I dont get the hype about 911's. The quality and performance are great but in terms of innovation there is not much going on. Ferrari is the only innovative car manufacturer, their new 458 Italia alone with its aerodynamic and diffusor technology is miles ahead of any other sports car. Why would I buy a Porsche, their over priced compared to what you get and outright boring, my old 996 turbo had absolutely no passion. Im thru with Porsche, for Gods sake change the 40 year old design!!
The new 458 has a double clutch gearbox. Porsche invented the double clutch gearbox. A Porsche innovation, well invention, that Ferrari use. Porsche is the only car company that has been successful with variable vain turbos in gasoline engines.
There is lots of things Porsche has done. You speak like someone who know very little about cars.
Audi has probably bin more innovative then Ferrari, so saying Ferrari is the ONLY innovative car manufacturer is pretty stupid.
Be that as it may, but the fact that the design is over 40 years old, i mean come on. The reason why i sold my 996 turbo was because i pulled up to an old 911 from the 70's and saw little difference, i mean its like doing plastic surgery continously on an aging woman, whats the point. Besides I meant that 'currently' Ferrari seems ahead of many, anyways I buy a car for its performance and in terms of handling a Ferrari beats a Porsche, that I know from experience.
The new Gallardo looks pretty much the same as the old one but no one is bitching about it. The Ford GT is a 40 year old design, looks a lot more similar to the original then the 911 looks to its original, again most people like it. What about the Jeep Wrangler, its a 70 year old design and people like it, in fact people would be upset if they changed it.
Same with the 911, more people would be upset if they changed it then if they kept it the same, which is why they didn't
With cars like new GT-R and ZR1, porsche must really be feeling he new competition pressure. I've never known porsche to do so much PR on new 911s before. Competition is always good?
I dont care if it looks like the same, i LOVE the subtle changes here & there on this classic 911 Turbo. I can't wait to get my hands on one of these!
Just like jeremy from top gear would say: Porsche design team, laziest design team. New 911 looks EXACTLY like the old. I don't care if you changed the gearbox and redesign whippers. I want something different on the outside! (No, changing the headlights doesn´t count).
well Porsche has always been about the evolution of the 911 rather than revolution. yes, it seems the design can be rather dull even archaic to most, but it's the driving dynamics that matters the most. Porsche, in my opinion, is the best no frills sports car maker ever. with that said, most of Porsche owners would take purity and passion over flamboyance and flair.
they belive in the idea of dont fix what isnt broken, and the design isnt broken in the eyes of the majoriity of the world... I love the sport classic though!! they are only makin 250 of em and i would kill for one!!
