Porsche outback.

Make sure you spec the $2060 titanium wheel bolt option!

Finally, a good winter beater. Idk how I'm going to decide between this and the Huracan Sterrato, but it's nice to have options.

It’s the best of both worlds for @90shelby

Porsche- an SUV company pretending to be a sport car company, making a sports car that acts like an SUV. Full circle.

On the other hand, finally a 911 that would get me to look twice instead of just yawn.

$300k please. If we deem you worthy to buy.

One day, I'll be nature enough to see the word "Dakar" and not immediately think of this:



Ok... Probably not.

So Subaru was on to something after all with the new WRX.

If it had a backseat, it would almost be the perfect Trackhawk replacement.

I haven't looked into it, but couldn't you pretty easily retrofit some factory seats in it?

Horseshoe theory

That mint/sage colour looks great. Perfect winter beater.

[BavarianBeast]

The Huracan Sterrato would be a much better buy imo.

You can... Everything you need is there and there are plenty of accounts online from people adding back seats to their GT3 / Tourings, etc.

Finding someone in North America to do it and the associated liability seems to be the problem.

Not on the 992, the mounting points etc are not in place for the GT3 to install rear seats. I’m guessing it’s the same for the Dakar, although I’ve read it’s built off of the 4S/GTS chassis….. so maybe?

Edit: The mounting points don’t exist in the 991 either but they were there in the 997. Yes you could weld them in etc on a 991/992 but that’s not a reasonable suggestion for value retention in my mind.

So what was the general consensus in the Porsche community for this car? Is it sold out/selling above msrp or are people not interested?

Porsche tells the community what to think, not the other way around.

Sounds like something a poor person would say.
