Just fun to drive

This is my 1st sports car and 1st convertible. I am very happy with my choice. Looks great, drives great, handles great and sounds great. PDK is the best tranny to date. Blows the DCT in BMW away. I should have gotten the steering wheel mounted controls, but other than that everything is perfect. In sports mode, this is an excellent sports car. Should be able to default the car to this setting vs. normal. Convertible top is quick, smooth and quiet. Has all of the amenities of a luxury car (provided you pay for them) and they all work well. Like they say, "Porsche, there is no substitute."
The best car

This is my first Porsche. Originally, looked at remaining '08 Boxsters then '08 911s and came away with great deal on '09 911. No problems other than speed limits and not being able to push to limits. I tried the PDK and it is sweet, but not engaging enough, so went with manual 6spd. Steering is precise, power is not overwhelming in the base model, but sufficient overall. Very comfortable as daily driver. Has been thirsty for oil; about a quart per 1000 miles.
Turbo is Top

Hyperspace performance coupled with supreme handling, comfort and practicality. This vehicle is simply sublime. It draws a straight line through the laws of physics and laughs in the face of Italian Supercars, American muscle and Japanese wannabes. Untouchable!
Fun, beautiful car.

I haven't owned for very long, but I love the car. This is about the last of the mechanical feeling cars that you can buy, before they added more computers. It has some nice features, but still spartan, compared to 2020+ vehicles. Based on the lack of need to repair, the quality is high.

This is by far the most impressive car I've ever driven. It handles great, has great acceleration, and I love the PDK. It's efficient and may appreciate in value. Drives like a powerful go cart and doesn't feels small. Unlike the 991's this 997.2 feels like a sports car rather than a grand tourer.

The best car ever made

This is my 4th 911 going back to a 1981 Targa. What a babe magnet! The 911 has no rival for handling (because of the rear engine which makes the front end light and nimble) and celebrity status. Short trips or long, it is a pleasure. Other drivers are intimidated, especially Vettes and even an occasional inexperienced Lamborghini driver. The 6 speed manual is the only way to go for a sports car. I drive it only in good weather and put on plenty of miles. What a great ride. The only drawback is the high price, but it is the entry fee to a special place.
Fun car to drive, but it's improvable!

A great acceleration machine and I really enjoy roaring to speed limit in 2 or 3 seconds after every first-in-line red light stop. Handling around sharp corners at high speed is very good. Impressively very stable and the sports seat holds my body pretty well. Definitely like the looks of the car when the top comes down. However I don't like the look of the spoiler when it comes up, because the stainless steel lift shafts do not match the ruby red color at all. Unfortunately there is no automatic shut off function for the head lights. This is so common in all the luxury cars and it surprises me that Porsche does not do it. Measured MPG=12. Bad.

Right now i have a Ferrari F430 and I'm leasing this 911 turbo (after Vette Z06 leased over) when I was Young my dream car was 911 turbo. So here it is 911 turbo. There was NO "WOW". It's ok to me. I think Porsche needs new revolution. It seems to me they have not changed any big past 7-8 yrs. Come on, Nissan Skyline beats 911 turbo with half of the price . I know what everybody think "what about quality of the car" well, it's not that great for THIS PRICE RANGE, maybe if $40k (with opt.) less... Handling is outstanding (much better than Z06). Acceleration, brake, and quality of car are ok (based on the price).

An excellent step in the evolution of this venerable marque. PDK adds measurably to the enjoyment of this auto, but "launch code" useful only for the track and then maybe not. Sport mode makes the auto shine. New PCM easy to learn and use. The new 997 is a good daily commuter for the performance minded.
