and btw, the 981's(2014-2016) are just as old as most of the 991's(2011-2019) |
Exactly. It really depends if one values 'style' or substance. Sound is overrated but lots of ppl think that is virtually the only thing that matters (it doesn't, HANDLING is if we're talking about sportscars).
As such, the 4 banger 'failed' because the Germans underestimated ppl's fragile ego and the need to be vain, as most reviews confirm what you said about the 4>>old 6.
