Feds designed new Porsche 991?

The 991 isn't at dealers yet, but its so lost in acronym systems, its not even funny anymore. Like other manufacturers coming up to meet newer CAFE standards, it has the engine start-stop technology. Even the manual. At a red light, when you press the clutch pedal, the engine will restart. Oh, its a 7spd too, for ultra overdrive - another MPG gain. Plus the trans will disconnect for free wheel and non engine braking coast downs. Remember when it was illegal to do neutral drops(?)

Dr. F. Porsche's conceptual designs were always from a personal vision. Never influenced by government demands and earthly progressive movements. Or maybe he was way back with the original volkswagen?

Share your opinion.
