Porsche Survival

[pothole]

Sorry, we keep going back and forth because the numbers just don't support your position that the 991 is overweight. Even if it is 3200 pounds minimum, that's less than 10 per cent heavier than the 964 in 1989.

Having read a few of your posts, I know on most matters regards sports cars and Porsche we have very similar opinions. But on this one, you've been smoking something. "Somewhat consistently heavier with every generation"? What does than mean?

Fact: the 996 was lighter than the 993.
Fact: Porsche claims the 991 is lighter than the 997.

The weight of the 991 is something it should be praised for, not criticised. The size and other aspects, are another matter.

And I agree, I'd love to see them making a smaller sports car. Something not too much over 1,000kg with a naturally aspirated flat six would be my preference. Not going to happen, obviously.
