You already drove a Ferrari 599, Lamborghini Gallardo SuperLeggera, SLR McLaren and Audi R8 V10 in 1 day. I'm the one who's jealous! thanks a lot.

Your review is much appreciated. Thank you. I've been in two minds about the interior color and was about to switch my black interior for grey. Your review is making me a bit more comfortable with my original choice.

On a side note, did your Porsche contact/driver mention anything about a GTS or GT3 version and timescales?

Thanks for the write up. How was the interior quality? My 997 has squeaks and rattles here and there, so I wonder how well Porsche put 991 up. Thanks.

Loved how you mentioned the grey leather. I dont understand how anyone get this color, it just looks cheap imo and has no flavor. I used to have the cocoa interior, now that was gorgeous.

No nothing. Good choice to take the black interior!
