New Porsche 992.2 Turbo S Drops šŸ”„

The Numbers:

  • 701 HP / 590 lb-ft of torque
  • Hybrid powertrain with dual electric turbos
  • Displacement actually went DOWN - 3.8L → 3.6L (everyone's missing this detail!)
  • 0-60 matches Bugatti Chiron pace
  • Quarter-mile: 10.3 seconds
  • Configurators showing ~$270K starting price

Hot Take: While everyone's talking power numbers, the real story is Porsche achieving more with less displacement through electrification.

Market Watch šŸ‘€

Wild Pricing Alert: 2014 Cayenne base model listed for $125.5K with manual transmission in Jet Green Metallic. Manual Cayennes are becoming unicorns, but this pricing is... interesting.

Racing Update šŸ

IMSA at Texas: Porsche Penske took the win in wet conditions. Rain was definitely Porsche's friend - helped level the playing field against what we hear was a pretty heavy Balance of Performance penalty.

Up Next: Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta is just around the corner!

What's On Deck šŸ—“ļø

Event Season Heating Up:

  • Luft gathering approaching fast
  • Multiple rallies on the calendar
  • Our rally participants: Time's running short to get your cars dialed in!

Garage Updates:

  • Host's car getting sorted this week
  • 993 project: Currently running 700 lb/in front, 1100 lb/in rear spring rates (way too stiff!)
  • Winter plans: Testing current setup, then switching to PSS10s
  • GT3 getting Ohlins Road & Track suspension
  • Big suspension development year ahead
Cool Builds Spotlight šŸ› ļø

Joe Rogan's RSR Project Delivery: Absolutely sick build from RSR Project (Northeast-based shop). They've been perfecting these restomods for 9+ years.

What We Love:

  • Long hood 911 restomods
  • Proper RSR race car aesthetic
  • Big flares, meaty tires, proper sidewall
  • Old school racing DNA

Personal Take: If we were buying a restomod, RSR Project would be top of the list. That long hood, wide-body RSR vibe with modern performance is pure perfection.
