^^ Exactly! Awesome post, sir!

And let's not forget, guys: since the day the first 911 was introduced, it was intended as a GT car. Many seem to forget that. Porsche is always constantly updating the car with new things that are expected from a GT these days. It is still a sports car though. 400hp, a loud engine whale, and a Nordschleife time of 7:37? Sounds sporty to me. 

I don't think Porsche should change the 991, but I do think they need another variant: The Carrera R.

No aircon/radio, door pulls, plastic windows, aluminum doors, alcantara interior, and a bunch of other things that take away the luxury and add the sport, such as a stiffer suspension. And most importantly, give it the 350hp 3.4l Boxer engine and price it a couple grand higher than the Carrera... Hmmmmm. Kind of reminds me of the Boxster Spyder and Cayman R... That's what we need! A basic no frills 911 that has the engine and bodywork of the base model (maybe slightly altered), and a GT3 chassis. Who's with me?
