    Thanks for showing yr 718 Spyder in my book the best looking Porsche at the moment. Enjoy it after the break in period as i have experienced. Yes the looks, handling, manual, 4 liter engine omg whats not to like. More looks than any other Porsche wait and see.

      @@EddieX I dont think it matters that much past 600 miles, and then 1000 miles. The run in in the Porsche manuals are all the same between all the models and all the newer ones have Auto start stop and what happens once the car warms up if it is not in a "Sport" Mode? It turns the motor off and they tell you not to drive less than 5 miles prior to 2k miles. I dont think you want to ring it out or track it prior to 2k but I think up to 4k before 600 miles then maybe not past 6k to 1k miles and then run the range after 1k without running it at red line until after 2k....just my opinion.

    A base Boxster is only $60,000 before options. For the limited use he describes it seems that car would be enough for open air fun plus it has power top. Extra power and better handling with Spydsr but $116k! Crazy expensive.

    The gearing issue is not an issue in the turbo'd S and GTS, I think that is why that motor is better than the NA motors. The turbo'd 4 pulls in 6th gear at just about anything over 40 mph. Also, I think the 911's prior to the 992 were more difficult to take to the limit compared to the Cayman/Boxster, not with the 992, that car sticks to the road like nothing I have ever experienced. Either way, all Porsches are great!

      Ownership experience, not driving experience. You have $116,000 less in your bank account is all the ownership experience you need to know. Anything else comes with the territory of owning any car.

    • @sultanqasim
      @sultanqasim 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I own an AMG GT S, used to own a Boxster, and have driven a bunch of Porsches. Porsche leather interiors are in a completely different league than any Mazda in terms of actual quality and feel when you sit in one. The AMG GT interior is certainly fancier looking than Porsche 981/982/991 with the metal and carbon centre console, chromed vents, quilted seats etc. The AMG GT centre console buttons are also nicer than what Porsche has on the 981/982/991, though they are still high quality plastic buttons on the Porsche. The 982 centre console buttons feel a lot more solid than those on a Macan. In terms of actual quality of construction and comfort when you sit in one, I’d argue Porsche interiors are better than the AMG GT, even though the AMG interior is prettier.
