I read the article and the below quote stuck out to me most...the 2017 S is 0.4 seconds faster to 60 (3.7 seconds) vs. the 991.1 S. I can't help but think that the difference in performance will drive pricing down of used 991.1 cars significantly -- am I wrong? I'm looking at a couple of 991.1's right now but may hold off until the 2017 comes out. Would appreciate your thoughts...
With a dual-clutch automatic, the Carrera S can accelerate to 60 mph in 3.7 seconds, eclipsing its predecessor by 0.4 seconds and edging the 430 hp, 2015 GTS by one-tenth of a second. Top speed climbs by a token 1 mph in both Carrera and Carrera S. And then there’s the real pay off: Consumption drops by between 6 and 13 percent in European testing. (U.S. fuel economy estimates are still not out.)
