To add onto Max’s comment, here’s the breakdown of generations:

I’m offended by the use of “914-8”.

I’m disappointed that the photographer didn’t focus more on the potential Boxster Spyder.  Also, I’m wondering if the rear differences are between the standard Carrera (without ducts) and Carerra S (with ducts).

A couple months ago I saw a black Tesla Model X P100D on the way to work with one of these:

Until you realize that a large number good things that happen in Europe never are imported into the US (including other Gordon Murray designs - F1 without Ameritech modifications).

Behind the Toyota Crown.  That’s what stuck out to me too in that picture.  Someone will have to explain to me the importance or significance of a two-digit Japanese number plate.

The 911 took more than 10, and probably somewhere nearer to 15, tumbles before it settled on its roof.

I read that the same way. We thought you were referring to the Camaro SS trim level, not the SS model. Also a reason GM is losing: terrible alphabet soup trim level and option pack naming - 1LT, 2LS, Z codes for days. Several automotive journalists have written about this recently.

Agreed. The 996.1 GT3/Aerokit is the best looking 996.

I remember in 1997 with the announcement of the Boxster, that Porsche returned to the entry-level sports car market for the first time in years, and you could buy a base 201 hp, 5 speed manual with 16" wheels for just under $40k.  Wow how times have changed that a all-boxes-checked Camry is the same price with over…

I grew up around car events, for as long as I can remember this has been the rule my father instilled in me. When looking at a car and leaning forward it is good etiquette to clasp you hands behind your back, no rings, no watches, no belts, and no bags or purses freely swaying. It’s simple and respectful, the golden…

Are they really a premium thing?  The Prius has had round bottom wheels since 2010. 

I want to know everything about this.

Am I the only one who dreams of a Singer-redesigned 914?  Could you imagine them tackling a 914/6 2.7?  Or maybe a 914/8?  The power-to-weight ratio would be impressive and the power-to-fun ratio would be unheard of.

Agreed.  My 2005 Outback XT with Blizzak WS80 felt absolutely invincible on ~6 inches of completely unplowed rural highway last year.  I have never felt so confident in tires in my entire life.

Yeah, and it shares a lot more than a door handle or control module from the car it is based on (Lotus Elise).

Definitely looks pretty beefy, especially considering the 20"/21" staggered wheels it’s riding on(245/35-20 and 305/30-21). The only 911 models that has had that wheel configuration thus far are the 991 GT3 RS and GT2 RS (and before that the 918). Heck, Porsche didn’t even offer factory 20" wheels until the 991 was…

Not sure you understand how big a gap doubling a lap time is.  Times from Wikipedia page:

Having been to Lambert’s I can appreciate the throwed reference. And I’m not sure the term ‘roll’ is applicable, as they are like mini bread loaves.
