Lars997:

The reason the 997.2 is selling bad is for sure not only the car itself. I guess this has more to do with the current situation of the economy, which leads into high depreciation of the "old" cars, versus Porsche stills sticks to the new-car sales of max 6 %. And than of course, if you want to put that much money on top, it really has to bring much more on the table as the old one, which indeed is not really given by the 997.2. I feel it on myself, I'm not tempted at all and I dont have the "must have " feeling.


What is the % drop of 997.2 vs 997.1 sales?   Any global figures?

Is it more than other comparable cars from other makes, given the economic climate and the consequent credit squeeze, loss of jobs etc?

Anyway the 997.2 is not a new model, it is a FL which happens to introduce technology like DFI and PDK that will also be found in the next model.

However, IMO the drop in 911 sales would have been greater without the 997.2.
