Whoopsy:

911 turbo S are never the ultimate 'sports car', it has always been the ultimate 'all around sports car'. It has a complete 'envelope' of performance.

Dry weather performance are getting to the point where gains are incremental, no more giant gulp gains, and at the top of the food chain, they are all separate by not much margin.

But on the wet side of the equation, there are good size gains to be had with modern tire technology. Why not take advantage of that and make the car's 'envelope' more complete? 

Agreed. Actually, I think the 911 Turbo S is the best "daily driver" supercar on the market. Maybe even the only one. Smiley

 

It is the only one.

For some reason or another, no one else wants in in this segment.

Huracan doesn't have the practicality. Ferrari's Lusso/FF, Bentley are on the other side of Grand Touring. 

Everything else went with rear wheel drive and completely avoid the direct competition. 

It's one reason I always needed to have a 911 turbo S in the garage. I can do without any Porsche GT cars, I can do without mid engine Ferraris, But I cannot do without a 911 turbo S.
