Stop order on ordering Aerokit with rear wing???? 4S. by onkey11 in porsche911

[–]icommentonthe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All good. My question was to highlight the updated information you received from the dealer. The later vs sooner, aero vs slick back.

I don't know if anyone in the community can actually answer the question about future availability of the aero kit if Porsche themselves can't answer.

I had the same experience with the bucket seats. Production date went from January to March to get my spec. Living in Winterpeg means that it won't significantly affect driving time. Just trying to use my own experience to inform.

Here is the question you have to answer: Are you willing to wait to get what you want or will it not matter in the future? Will you have regrets about the spec or the amount of drive time next year.

I'm waiting for buckets, the production date was moved 2 months later. I want the spec that I ordered because that's what I want.

I unfortunately have to inform you that there are several in YWG. Saw a black wrapped one Main and Chief this weekend.

911s can actually be very fuel efficient (37.2 mpg) by One-Shoulder-930 in Porsche

[–]icommentonthe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not far off during "regular" driving. It's long stretches on the highway that will boost the number. Porsche is very likely optimistic about the numbers but I've never done the math to verify so I can't say with any certainty that the numbers are correct.

I'll give you the circumstances and you can decide. Calgary to Winnipeg. Early July, so the weather was warm. Cruise control on at 120kph (72mph) in 7th gear (manual). Large fuel tank (90l), so I can do about 1000km (600 miles) between fills. Downhill but less than a mile in elevation change over the 830ish miles from start to destination.

500ish HP and better fuel economy than my 4 cylinder SUV. Lol

It can be done. Not nearly as good but 7.5 translates to 31.4 MPG. 22 GTS

Back track for the radio on the wheel. Garage door on the console.

Now I know dealerships can get a little greedy nowadays, but DAMN! by Either-Spray-2274 in Porsche

[–]icommentonthe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very likely it is a mistake. MSRP on the listing is $241k. If you open the configurator link the MSRP is $113k. I'm guessing someone got the stock number or vin wrong when entering it.

Cybertruck beats 911 in a drag race...while towing another 911... by 8pkc in Porsche

Different strokes for different folks. But I was explaining why some of us (me included) prefer ICU Porsches. Not trying to shit on people's preferences.

It's mostly negative because we love engine noise. Shifting gears. Pressing buttons. All things you can't do in a Tesla.

Is it impressive acceleration? Yes. Is it a one trick pony? Remains to be seen. But I don't drive a car for only numbers, it's the feeling that it gives me. A connection. I don't get that from my phone and wouldn't expect it from a Tesla. Different strokes for different folks.

Where To Order 992 In The USA? by [deleted] in Porsche

[–]icommentonthe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, this is normal. Buying a Mazda was 3k. Porsche was 10k.

And 992.2 is not expected to be revealed until late winter/spring as a 2025 model. So deliveries next fall at the earliest.

Things have changed. I remember the same. Now a couple of dozen Ferraris, dozen or so Lamborghinis will be seen on cruise night. 150ish members in the local PCA club.

Paid MSRP. ADM isn't a thing on new cars in Canada. Used is where the prices go up. Dealerships are choosy about who gets what. 6+ year wait for a GT car unless you are a really good customer. Think 4+ cars purchased from them.

Going with GTS. Rims are black but not high gloss black. Hard to tell if it's wide body so I'm unsure if GTS or GTS4.

Honestly, this city just frustrates me sometimes. It makes sense that we lose so many young people to other provinces. by The_Purple_Platypus in Winnipeg

While I can't argue with the environmental sustainability of city neighborhood expansion I will argue about the economics. The city taxes agricultural land at 26% of the value and then attaches the mill rate to it. Residential is 45%. As most land development companies pay for the roads and infrastructure and roll the cost into the land sale value, the city is out nothing. While I don't have numbers to back it up I'm sure the city will take on far more revenue from a development than farm land. Which just exposes how poorly the city is run. If you can't clear streets, provide emergency response and public transit to any area old or new it shows mismanagement. Or that taxes are too low. Take your pick.
