Do yourself a favour and book some track time in the M3. You'll forget all about 0-60 times

Let me ask you this: would you take a Tesla Plaid or a 992 GT3?
I digress. |

It didn’t help that the local Porsche dealership told me mid-2021 that they wouldn’t sell me one because of how deep the queue was with “preferred” customers (with prior relationships).

I love the color- so brilliant/vibrant and eye catching too. Its the perfect 992 car color IMHO. But with having this GTS; I still am enamored with my G80X and would not get rid of it. Its involving, rewarding, and performs. The Porsche may just be a bit more of everything a driver wants but its a tough pill to swallow these days with ADM's. As for the OP: The G8X is THE bang for the buck IMHO. You get amazing straightline, steering feel, chassis response, reasonable OEM exhaust, and over good to great road feel. While there might be cars that have come closer in speed- their engineers had an easier time making up a huge margin while the M sits at the top and has a more challenging time improving. Yet in regards to the G8X - M killed it. Edit- I actually have a Plaid and its fun third car that never goes to the pump and hurts feelings on the street. Im an ICE bucket man but I had to try it. The novelty is there and the quality for me is acceptable (maybe I got lucky).

Yep, that's about right Vic. So what's next? I'm at Walmart now.

I have been honored to have the PB and AR cars. And Im getting bored of the Metallica Gray Plaid but not of the 1000 hp so Im thinking of getting a red one and lowering it with wheels like my Gray. And Im already working on 2023 992 build but thats still in the infantile stages.

Doing the performance experience was eye opening...this may sound controversial because all journalists want us to care about 0-60mph, but I was far more impressed with braking. That exercise was for me was more impressive than acceleration. |
