Lovely looking machine

I don't like the interior - looks quite cheap

Simon

I can see you turning up at the office with one of these wearing a suit matching the interior.

Stunning, but that's serious money. Plus, can anyone get one, or just flippers?

New promo ad says it all.Note the comments all + ve .
Reminds me of when I was 25 (had to wait for in’s back in the 80 s ) I went courting with a black 911 .Still married to her .
Yes we have a place on Cote d Azur + boat .
Now run a 987.2 boxster the nearest analogue Porsche thus far I can find that gets near to the raw air cooled early 911 feel.
New stuff is too lardy and sterile/ anaesthetised for me .But I can see young kids who know no better dropping deposits on new 911 pork - sure ,Keeping the SE s at OPC busy .

Just for VIP customers, investors & flippers.

At that price, one thing it isn’t is cheap.

Am sure the interior will divide opinion, as it has done already in this short thread.

Col,

To have one of these, I’d need to win the lottery, and buy one at an inflated price from a flipper. If I’d won the lottery, I’d no longer be going to the office.

Maybe it’s just me but I don’t like it 🫢 The go faster stripes, decals and interior leave me cold. Much prefer the 2010 version as they ran out some 997’s as a Sport Classic. Remember at the time they actually had difficulties moving them all, so much that OPC’s were heavily ( for Porsche) discounting. How times have changed and why didn’t I buy one then

The interior all looks great except for the cheap looking cloth bits (it probably looks better "in the flesh"

)

A cloth interior in the middle sections is vastly more comfortable on long runs .Indeed the hotter ( read more exclusive ) Ferraris and pork revert back away from leather to cloth insets .
Ironically folks spec more naff leather and let Porsche empty there wallets .
It s lost on me when the base spec are more comfortable you don’ t slide on the very same suede stuff they fit out the collector , nutter spec , track cars .
Hmm !
Anyhow someone’s gotta keep Porsches wolf from the door guys .

The most comfortable seats in a pork was the cloth reccaro buckets in my 968 CS ( new 94 an a L reg ) .You via spanner’s set the inclination once .
Did 1100 miles across France in 9 hrs in that .You do the maths on Ave speed .
