Hello all,
New to the forum as I very recently visited my local Porsche centre when I had a free Saturday and fell in love with a black 991.2 GTS in the showroom. Looking further a field into 2018 I'll likely be changing my car, but seeing as i was told a 911 Carrera is a 6 month wait, or 9 months for a Turbo, then if I chose Porsche I'd have to consider sooner than planned.
I wondered if any owners of 991.2 911's could share their views on using their cars as daily drivers? How's the road noise on our rubbish surfaced motorways? whats the ride quality like compared to other performance cars? General usability etc...? Must have options for daily driven cars? Paint quality against stone chips?
I do about 10-12k miles a year, mostly short trips, but also 2 1/2 hour trips to the Cotswolds once a month. Currently have the new shape C63 AMG Coupe, which is fantastic (but I like to change cars every 2-3 years). Previously had a new Nissan GTR, but that was hard work. Too bumpy, lots of road noise and the build materials are cheap. You'd get out after a 2 hour motorway drive feeling quite tired. So quite keen not to make that mistake again.
Thanks in advance
Lewis
