New Porsche 911 Spirit 70

[Jones the cat]

What do we think then? anyone placing an order?

[MDL111]

my thought was "bit of a let-down after the Sport Classic", but I guess it is more in line with the first heritage car

Is that a massive 911 on the bonnet?!

TX.

[ellroy]

Not a fan.

Mind you I’m not much of a fan of convertible 911s anyway.

The centre lock Fuchs are just plain odd.

[Maxym]

Dreadful.

you better believe it. Looks great in my opinion.

They should make the pasha cloth more readily available across all models.

Considering how bland they have become then I think fun editions like this are a step in the right direction not wrong direction.

Is that yet another parts bin special to milk the market?

[RDMcG]

Absolutely no interest in this. Lots of stickers and upholstery ,premium priced and only a certain number made.

[Grantstown]

It’s very easy to get a seat centres re-trimmed in pasha if so desired.

I’m not sure that this is anything special at all to be honest.

[bennno]

Terrible, but I’d be sorely tempted by another 911if the pascha fabric is an option, or pinstripe velour seat centres of the following decade, or the 3 tone seats of the 959 / 964 rs era.

Porsche have restricted their interiors and exterior colour choice to the mundane, unless you have enough dirt on a dealer principle to secure a pts build slot.

[Nutscratcher]

Not a fan of 911 convertible's anyway, always preferred the look of the Boxster and Spyders if i wanted wind in my hair.

Too many stickers and add ons make it look a bit tacky imo.

1500 made ... number dictated by the market ... some may be for collectors (who will barely drive them) ... it's an MX5 type marketing device at a Porsche type price point ... how to sell cars in the 21st century ?

Is it good or bad for the brand ? ... does it consolidate the "Icons Of Cool" concept ??
