-Matt aluminium styling package
Explains why the Matt Alu pack disappeared off the configurator a few weeks ago.

I see from your car list that you've cancelled the C7 RS6 and gone for a 991...?

That's plan B, but likely to sit it out until 2nd gen arrives next year. Have driven a variety of 991s, TTS is the daddy, but the new GTS is interesting. Audi have since made an offer on a f/l C7 that's hard to refuse, even the Porsche sales guy thought it hard to refuse! On the fence with splinters. Again.

Love the C7 and the power output but the lardy weight of it puts me off....

It was bl**dy quick but I was underwhelmed at the Audi day at Millbrook on the 1 mile straight - I remember you loved it..

Preferred the screaming V10 R8 TBH, just need either of those engines in an RS4 and I would be a happy boy..

They disguise their weight very well when on the move, but no amount of clever engineering can reduce their sheer size
Lovely car though

I read that next gen 911's will all be lower capacity turbo engines

Only way to please the leaf munchers. Look at the CO2 on the GT3. Turbo it is.
