Looking down the road at the 992 line, I think I've reached Peak 911 and will probably never be able to justify buying another.... used to be unless you were on minimum wage, you could afford a used porsche for not much more than a new camry. That's no longer the case since oldies have gone stratospheric and in my experience modern ones are introducing too much dealer centric tech...

Nowadays, most 991-992 will be PDK. PDK is $15K to replace and you can only do it at a dealer. An engine is $20K now... And the 992 will shortly introduce hybridization, and I fear no independent will be able to deal with this... Imagine buying one of those puppies new for >>$100K and looking down the road at forking out replacement costs on all that tech... Just the new screens are gonna be serious money when they die one month out of warranty...

For me anyway, from now on it's oldies in the garage and a modern appliance in the driveway, under warranty or lease.. My 991.1 is very likely my last modern Porsche... naturally aspirated and already largely unusable in modern traffic...
