The Porsche of today is not the company or cars that I fell in love with back in the 1980's. Faster? yes. More comfort? yes. More modern and high tech? yes. Stir passion for the car and loyalty to the brand? I wish I could say otherwise but, no. They lost me. I don't go look at the new cars at intro, don't go to gatherings, don't read about the specs... There is no connection for me. No soul. I'm definitely not going to bond with a new car by working on it (unless you call a wash and a wax "working") like I can and do with my `87.
Maybe it is just me but I feel that the modern Porsche's are wonderful, high priced appliances just like many other brands. Maybe a little better than some but no distinction, no soul. The Porsche of today has become SUV's, 4 door luxo sedans, and oh, by the way, I think we also have a sports car around here somewhere. Next will be pickup trucks. I know "its nothing personal, just business" but I don't feel a connection to a business.
Oh and to answer your question: the 992 looks bland and boring.
