Finally i had the opportunity to test drive a porsche for the first time and it was 991 PDK,honestly i am not a Porsche fan, but i know they are solid well made sport cars that stand up by masterpiece engineering.
The 911 was easy to get in and out,i loved the full leather interior carrera red (natural leather),the seats was supported very well,over all ride quality was good and comfy.the visibility was great. the car was really connected to the road,fast and nimble,the electric power steering was good too,the PDK was fantastic smooth and fast at sport mode i wonder how fast with sport plus mode cause the one i drove it without Sport chrono pkg. the flat 6 produce a wonderful sporty exhaust sound even without PSE.
what i dislike about it the normal steering wheel, i prefer PDK sport steering wheel, and there was a bit of road noise that doesn't bother me. but there something missing and i wasn't except that,i didn't feel its special or wow since i opened the door it was just normal feeling. i drove R8s several times everytime i get in it i feel special, i was wonder and thinking why 911 didn't feel special, my conclusion is the 911 is very very practical and easy to drive that why it missed the special feel.i would like to read your opinions guys
thanks for reading.

Some people are just not meant to own Porsches. The 911 isn't just any car it's the car that sets the standard by which all other cars are judged. If you didn't already know that I feel sorry for you.

+1.... every time I sit in a R8 I can't wait to get back out of it. YMMV.
