I wasn't comparing the steering of the two brands. The steering of the Emira is good, but I was comparing it to the first Emira test drive I did. Felt less good, less special for some reason. Maybe just had too high expectations.
Fair point. Different price point and competition. I was just trying to assess my current situation and determine if it was worth it. True, Porsche MSRP has increased a lot lately. Can't say Porsches are good value, they are just good.
I drove the Emira today - not a great route though, highways and a lot of on and off ramps lol. It was the touring suspension which was new to me, didn't seem that different than the sport I had driven.
Bottom line: I liked it, but didn't love it. The 911 has a way of making other cars don't...
Thanks, this is actually helpful. Because the Emira doesn't have a fraction of the crazy options that Porsche configurator has, I would not be too worried about not speccing it myself. I do like the HY better than other colors. So I'm thinking about rolling the dice.
Hard to disagree with the looks and hate or no hate it doesn't bother me. I'm sure there are several 911 owners here so they can provide some perspective.
I'm just trying to think whether I swing it now and have a "somewhat similar" car to the 911, maybe parked too much, simply get the deposit...
Hi all, it's been a while.
I ordered a 911 Carrera T some 2y after I put a deposit for a Base V6 and got delivery about a year ago. It's my turn now to configure and order the Emira. Having second thoughts.
First world problem of course. I had an Elise and was hoping to get a similar raw and...
Clearplex on my 911 T since April of this year. Has saved me a few times. No noticeable distortion but I am not as OCD as some folks in rennlist. No scratches. I can see it lasting 2y easily.
If your car will see highways often, I think it can save you from many headaches.
Hethel Yellow one spotted in 85 (I think) towards Mountain View. I was in a blue carrera T and gave you a thumbs up.
Beautiful car, I'm a fan of that color and will order a Base one!
