Get a BRZ.

The Dragon is a car handling lovers dream. It's really fun even for a 1/4 mile drag racer like myself. After driving the 2024 Porsche 911 and the 2024 Mustang, I'm starting to feel a need for a better handling car. It's such a wide gap between the GT and the 911 but so is the price tag.
Which 911 did you try?
You should be looking at the 718 Cayman GTS 4.0.Post edited by tratliff on2 Channel Rosso Fiorentino Volterra II, 2 REL Carbon Limited, Norma Revo IPA-140B, Lumin U2 Mini, VPI Prime w/SoundSmith Zephyr MIMC, Modwright PH 150, Denon DP-59l w/Denon DL-301MKII, WAY Silver 3 Ana+ Speaker Cables, WAY Silver 4+ Interconnect Cables, AudioQuest Niagara 7000 w/Dragon and Hurricane Power Cables -
2024 Porsche 911 Carerra T. This is me driving away from the front of our Hotel and my Wife standing off to the side which she video taped me leaving the parking lot as well.
It was an incredibly fast super well balanced basically perfect sports car. Porsche perfected the 911 and this is one hell of an example. Twin Turbo Charged V6 engine.

Would you care to elaborate?
On paper at least, compared to the GT, for the extra $15-20K in price you only get a 1s reduction 0-60, and the same 12.5s quarter mile with just a 1 mph improvement to 115.
Doesn’t mean that there aren’t legitimate reasons. 😉
I'm not only interested in straight line speed. Its a Mustang that can handle corners.2ch rig: Speakers: Magnepan LRS w/Magna Riser stands Preamplifier: Parasound P5 Amplifier: Parasound A23 CDP: Pioneer DV-563A Cables: Wireworld Equinox 7 XLR ICs, Wireworld Ultraviolet 7 USB, AudioQuest Q2s, AudioQuest NRG X(preamp)

I like just about everything Porsche Makes. I'm not into Electric cars so that is out for me. But the 911 Carerra T was amazing. I have driven 911's in the past, just a few years ago I had a 911 Carerra 4S at the house and I was al wheel drive and very fast. It was also convertible and super fun to drive. I didn't bond with that car like I did with the Carrera T, something very special about this new model.
Here's a shot of the 911 Carerra 4S all wheel drive I had here. My wife actually loved driving it.

I am also a big fan of Porsche. I was close to pulling the trigger on a 718 4.0 a couple of months ago and getting rid of the M2. Nice cars…2 Channel Rosso Fiorentino Volterra II, 2 REL Carbon Limited, Norma Revo IPA-140B, Lumin U2 Mini, VPI Prime w/SoundSmith Zephyr MIMC, Modwright PH 150, Denon DP-59l w/Denon DL-301MKII, WAY Silver 3 Ana+ Speaker Cables, WAY Silver 4+ Interconnect Cables, AudioQuest Niagara 7000 w/Dragon and Hurricane Power Cables

HUGE fan of Porsche here! I've told everyone that the next car I buy will be a Carerra 4S not sure what chassis yet (the one I can afford
). The 718 RS 4.0 is on my radar but its a bit (WAY) out of my current price range lol.One of my kids is really into F1 and cars in general, so now that he’s 18, we’ve promised him the Porsche Driving Experience here in L.A. as soon as we can arrange it on our schedules.
Nice gift!
I've thought about trying the PDE in Atlanta as it's only a few hours away.2ch rig: Speakers: Magnepan LRS w/Magna Riser stands Preamplifier: Parasound P5 Amplifier: Parasound A23 CDP: Pioneer DV-563A Cables: Wireworld Equinox 7 XLR ICs, Wireworld Ultraviolet 7 USB, AudioQuest Q2s, AudioQuest NRG X(preamp)

Awesome pics, Dan! 🤩
Your wife looks totally at ease at the wheel of the 911, maybe she deserves it? 😜
She use to drive my 1987 Buick Grand National and handled that with ease so the Porsche she felt right at home.Dan
