That’s the key word. It sounded different, but very good! Not like the 6 though which is what I think most lament in the sound. I loved the way the torque was delivered but also was rewarding to run the car to redline which I did often in gears 1,2, & 3. One of the very few cars I left stock too because it was just sublime to drive. Also loved the gunshot pops of the exhaust.

So then I tried to create a few basic configurations of 718 T and 718 S on Porsche Canada website, and the pricing unsurprisingly veered well into the new M3 territory. IMHO it is hard for me to justify this Porsche pricing for what is basically a joyride with little practicality, and little equipment. |

Porsches do hold value much better than M cars, but they are never going to win best bang for buck when looking at new car pricing - that has never been their MO. Creating the best driver cars, and leading the way in driving technology (PASM, PDK, rear wheel steer, EPS, etc.) are what they do better than anyone if I’m telling you how I feel. After owning one, it’s hard to want to drive anything else because of how good they are and while the price of entry is high, I think they’re well worth it for the overall package. If you simply want bang for your buck, many others do that well (BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Ford, Chevy, etc). |
