The base Carrera is now very compelling. Joe Achilles got 3.54 second for a 0-60 sprint which is quicker than previous generation GT3's and when you add a slightly more 'daily friendly' suspension, you might as well save a ton of cash on the higher models IMHO.

I think Porsche opted for a smaller steering wheel since that’s actually how you want it in a track car that’s not F1. And that’s the reason you can’t see the outer display portions quite as well. Despite what most manufacturers tell you, a “dented” steering wheel (or a rectangular one for that matter) is not better on the track. F1 is a different story but F1 drivers never need to re-grip the steering wheel for cornering (forgive my english please). You want a small steering wheel that’s round so it can glide through your hands. Dented steering wheels look sporty but perform worse on the track I bet. I don’t know though, I’ve only driven round steering wheels on the track.

Too bad they are going for huge dealer markups here in the states and you cannot get an allocation for a new one. I’ve gone to 3 dealers and they all said getting an allocation on a new 911 is impossible so I’d have to look at the used market. I understand since they all had a laundry list of customers that purchased multiple Porsche vehicles from each dealer waiting for an allocation and this would be my first Porsche. One dealer even mentioned starting with a used Cayman to build a relationship with the dealer, which over time could eventually get you a 911 allocation. A Used 2018 GTS that had 2 previous owners recently sold for $185K at my local Porsche dealer. A 2020 used base Model that I test drove was going for $115K, I just can’t pull the trigger on that. Porsche is king and I’m in the market, I’m just having trouble coming to terms with the reality of the 911 and even the Cayman marketplace.
