Canyon drive with the new Porsches

Quickburn7 · 07-24-2018, 07:04 PM

Was in the M5 this afternoon and had a nice drive with the following Porsche that were hot weather testing
New 911, 911 s coupe convertible both in pdk and 7 speed manual
New GT4 manual
New boxster spyder manual

The engineers after a while pulled over and we chatted. They couldn't confirm what the cars were but models were easily recognized

However the 718 spyder and GT4 sounded JUST like my 991.2 GT3.

Interiors looked great but very different than why the 911s look

I was tempted to buy a Turbo S instead of the F90. But sitting in it seemed very low, my vision sight line was close to the roof line and I had just sold a 2017 Zo6 650/650 that had the same issues plus a lot of tire noise. F90 is still very enjoyable.

Quickburn... I never post but had to chime in because I think we live close to each other. I'm by Mulholland/Topanga and my office is across from the Commons.

Wish I saw that caravan of Porsches! Lots of cool stuff in the canyons around us.
