Max,
Your sarcasm is cheeky but I get your point.
I like the 997 a lot but I am not in love with it either, not the for the same reasons though but it is as a sport car, an amazing achievement.
Just a bit annoyed by the fake design details, such as the four pipes or the door handle, etc.
I saw it in person and the 19 wheels look much better in person, overall quality impressions of the interior if far higher.
I trust RC's judgement as I haven't driven the car yet, I'll stick with my 996 mk2 for now, really happy with it.
And then when the time comes, the offer list shall be huge:
- 997 mk2 (Direct fuel injection? More HP? the mk1 but better)
- New Maserati confirmed for 450 hp, if they keep the weight reasonnable and Pininfarina's desing, it should catch our interest.
- BMW M4, rumors of V8? should be a cracker
- Aston V8 etc etc etc...
