You'll hate the rear visibility, or lack thereof, especially to the right. Find a nice 2012 maybe. *NM* Laz - Wednesday, 17 July, 2013, at 3:32:12 pm |

Ah, but that was a deal breaker for me...Quote

I didn't care for the console at all, nor the gauge pod with the silver background.
The crease where the sill piece meets the rear fender seemed odd, while the reduction in rear view via a smaller window and tinted windblocker, combined with a smaller rear trunk, seemed to be a step in the wrong direction.
Having said all that, after 8 months of ownership, those issues don't cross mind much these days--save not getting my golf clubs in the rear trunk.
The car is an absolute hoot to drive and with regards to styling, this car gets more looks than either our 986 or 987 ever did, combined.
Let's just say that when 911 owners come up and compliment how the car looks, you know Porsche got most of it right.
Best of luck with the new car--you will love it.

I'm in the Rhett Butler camp when it comes to 911 owners' opionions about any car I own. *NM* Laz - Thursday, 18 July, 2013, at 11:10:22 am |

Thanks for the critique. I feel better now that I bought a 2012 just before the 2013 was announced. *NM* Jeff (Philly) - Thursday, 18 July, 2013, at 10:32:19 am |
