Best sports car ever
Although pricey, the base 911 is super fast and comfortable and gets 30 mpg on the road. Unless you are a race car driver, 370 HP is already more than needed, but really fun if you need to merge or pass or change lanes at a stoplight.

Overall great car
I'd really give it a 4.5. Had the car for about 5 months. I've owned Caymans in the past and liked the mid engine layout and the more balanced handling. The 911 is more of a GT car, a bit quieter. Still great performance but you can definitely feel the weight in the rear. High quality throughout though some of the tech is not great. One bug so far with the automatic headlight control. Fingers crossed due to Porsche history of major engine design issues; IMS bearing, bore scoring. Don't like that there are almost no high performance all season tires available since I live where it's around 30 or below in the mornings about half the year and I'd like a high performance year round tire. But that's not the car's fault. Inconvenient location of USB and AUX inputs (glove box, center console). Dash kind of cluttered due to one gauge poition being used for digital information, and the steering wheel cuts off the water and oil temp gauges. Gauge display not configurable so you have to scroll through info you may not care about, such as g-force (be nice if that only displayed in sport mode). Not strictly the car, but I notice that a lot of Porsches are sold with very low mileage and at auction with very little Carfax information, as mine was, which is bit worrisome.

The BEST car
The 2017 911 Turbo is the most impressive Porsche (or any car for that matter) currently produced. It is a refined race car that you can drive everyday....and you know the power is there no matter what car pulls up next to you! While you are waiting for that to happen, you can simply drive a beautiful automobile and if you get the Burmeister Upgrade to the Stereo, you can just enjoy the driving experience while listening to the BEST music system in the industry. I am lucky to have this car, and considering the cost of the competition, it is fairly prices for what you get. It is a sexy car that drives like the race cars it is born from and it is pure driving pleasure.....not to mention the looks you get! Congratulations Porsche for making the best car in the industry. One word....OUTSTANDING.

So awesome we bought two.
Last summer I was looking to buy myself a nice sporty luxury car. I had graduated from a 2004 VW R32 (amazing car), and wanted something a more refined. I received lots of advice and opinions and looked at Maserati, Aston Martin, BMW, Cadillac, Ferrari, etc. It struck me that every dealer and person who I got advice from kept comparing their cars to Porsche, especially the 911. One guy I know has an airplane hanger where he stores his numerous cars. He told me his two favorites were Ferrari 458 and Porsche 911 Turbo S. So off to Porsche I went. Drove a base 911 and thought it handled really well but didn't blow me away. Was told I needed to try Turbo or Turbo S. Which I did. I was blown away. Perfect gestalt of a driving experience. Bought the Turbo S. Scary fast. Like a rocketship. Have since bought two (one for my wife) Targa 4 GTS 911s. Not a rocket but plenty fast -- extra 30hp and torque does make a significant difference, and suspension, height, and other tuning make for thrilling ride. Last of naturally aspirated engines, which with top down, makes for the most visceral and enjoyable daily driver when the weather is good. Love the Targa top (don't like soft top convertibles), and the aesthetic of the Targa (classic and modern at once). For me whether a Turbo S or GTS naturally aspirated is perfection reached.
