Simply superb! Remember the comments: who wants to order a SuperPrius? Seating my posterior in the carbon fiber cabin mock last August in Weissach I must confess I had my doubt about a plug-in car! But...this is Porsche...Different!

I prefer the Carrera GT all the way, but still this 918 is so cool! I love seeing such an early mule right next to a Carrera GT. Great video from evo.

One thing I find interesting is that the Carrera GT still looks brand new. It hasn't aged a bit, and its successor is just around the corner. The 918 will be a fantastic car, but it can't live up to the Carrera GT. However, that rumored car of the 458 Italia competitor, that could possibly have a manual derived from the Carrera GT paired to a boxer engine, that would be the ultimate modern Porsche.

Hi Carrera,

Fully agree - the C.-GT remains a masterpiece..and its more a classic supercar. Besides, the performance is still remarkable..

Ah, I think there will be no 458 competitor - neither will there be baby boxster - this was in the german media. Why should there be a 458 competitor?..the 997 GT models kept it well on a "leash" ...so the 991 will continue this spirit..

take care,

This is the most excited I've been for a car to come out in a while. This is a big step, not just for Porsche, but for the whole automotive industry.

Agree.. Your'e talking about the so called "961". Getting ready for the GT Open with the RSR 2012 specs but, the results from Sebring says it all.
