Looks like Porsche made the right decision.
The 718-4 just not selling, although it could outperform the 981. Market forces dictate otherwise I quess. I still love the look of a 987 and 981 over the 911 especially from the rear. |

One cannot get close to the performance limits of my 987.2 S without going to the track driving safely on public roads.
That being true - what is the purpose/need of owning a GT4 other than ego - if one is not going to race it? Of course, if you are one to want to flaunt your $$$, it's a free world - go for it. I like my Meteor Grey for the very reason that I want to NOT be seen and not to be noticed.....and if I did have mega-bucks (which I don't) I sure wouldn't want to flaunt it........it stays subtle & hidden. In 6 years I've owned the car, I've never gotten a ticket. Pulled? Yup. 5 times! Would you believe every cop has stated how he admired the car? I personally find the bang for the buck in a 987.2 S to be incredible and hard to beat...... GN |
