I was able to attend a reveal of the new 981 last week at local Porsche dealership. I was so anxious to see the new car. This was the first reveal the dealership had ever done and they did a great job.
Impressions:
PRO-love the Carrera GT look of doors and air ducts
love the integrated rear wing into the rear taillights
love the headlamps and running lights
love the 8 sec no clam shell top
love the added HP
love the weight reduction
CON-so much larger has the mass feel of 991
restricted vision with top up
20" wheels too large
reduced opening in rear trunk (although deeper with taller tail)
too much plastic! love leather wrapping Porsche does so well but too much plastic in interior of 981
Would I buy one? Maybe used but not at the prices they are asking. Would I take one if given to me? IT A HEART BEAT! ;-)
