I got a lot of "no cost" options, the Dakar wheels, heated adaptive sport seats, I did pay $5,200 for the "Rally 1974" decal set, $550 for the heated sport steering wheel, and $4,540 for the Burmester high end surround sound system.

As much as I love the technology and capabilities of the 911, I couldn’t really ever see me wanting one for more than a test drive until now. I can totally see a use case for a car like this. It’s not as an off-roader, but as a road tripper. There are a ton of interesting places out there that have rough gravel road access that you would normally have to take a pickup or SUV to get to. With something like this you can visit those places and have a sports car on the highways in between. I already have several trips planned. Now I just need to win the lottery.

I'm seriously considering trying to source one of these to use in Northern Alberta Canada, in the winter. My 2020 911 is setup, as you;d expect on summer-only tires... but something about this Dakar, and studded winters equals quite an adventure come snow season. I wonder if this is even attainable in Canada?

Why? This is the dumbest idea ever. Just buy a dedicated vehicle for the terrain, either a Tacoma or 4Runner will do fine.

fun fact: At 19 degrees, the ramp angle of the 911 Dakars is on a par with the Cayenne and Macan
@karlk.6819 Жыл бұрын
Partially incorrect. 19 degrees is the maximum for the 911 dakar, the number porsche used for the suvs is different: for the macan they used steel springs (16.5°, 19° with air suspensions), for the cayenne they used the normal ground clearance setup. The cayenne got a better ramp angle than the 911 dakar when air suspensions are in their highest setting (20.5°)

Man, I see so many people lamenting about grey cars. Sometimes, sure, but then you get colors like this. It's friggin' gorgeous. The matte really works well. A further selling point for an already desirable car. Kinda in love with it.

Hey Doug, great vid! Is this becoming the new thing now? Off road super cars? 2 of the best selling supercars now offer off road capable models. If the Huracan and the 911 have off road models, then there’s more than likely going to be an off road model offered on the Artura, Vantage, Roma/296/Portofino or whatever Ferrari’s equivalent is to the huracan since the F8 is gone).

Ferrari would never do this. They're too stuck up. They're only now coming out with an SUV and they even refuse to call it an SUV. I could see McLaren doing it. Idk about Aston Martin doing it either. Idk if they have the money to really be experimenting with that kind of thing.
