I have yet to see A SINGLE OTHER 991 out there and we're almost in August. Maybe it's because the cabs didn't arrive until just before summer or maybe it's because New Yorker's seem to favor the 4WD 911's but if you ask me something is up...

Maybe everyone is waiting for 2013 ; D. For me, 911 is not about its exclusivity, I don't think it is consider as such, it is a luxury brand. Some of the product competes with other luxury brand. I see them on the road daily, 997.1, 997.2, 996, and that is just 911...

There are four Porsche dealers all within 30 mins from me, plus a few more within an hour. I like to have one simply because there is no better daily driver than a 911. Iconic shape, solid build, quality improves with each generation. What is not to like?
