The lap was 6:43. Not 6:58. Might wanna do some research there. Also, the new C8 looks like crap with those massive side pods and enormous trunk/rear. It's been panned widely for that. Front looks okay, though. Your argument is frankly stupid because the 911 in higher trims is consistently an extremely sought after vehicle, year after year. It's good looking, and it's not broken, and they won't 'fix' it. There's nothing to fix. Stop with your inane attempt to pass off 'neat', or debatably good looking bodywork, as what makes a supercar a supercar. It betrays your lack of knowledge.

> The lap was 6:43. Not 6:58 I don't trust Porsche, like I don't trust Ferrari or Lamborghini or Corvette. Carmakers cannot be trusted. They can use custom specs and/or slick tires and you'd not be the wiser. On the other hand I trust a publication such as Sport-Auto.de which uses a regular car, Michelin tires and the same driver for each and every tests. The only variable is the car and the Nordshleife as well as wind/track temperature. Plus they record the attempt as you can see. When Sport-Auto.de driver made the lap times it was 6.58.22 vs. 7.00.03 Again. Not string theory. The Pista and the Gt2RS have basically the same weight:power ratio If Ferrari sent their team to Germany doing all sorts of magic to optimize Nordshleife laptimes they'd come up with a 6:44 too. If anything it's Porsche using marketing gimmicks to sell more cars, not Ferrari. Lamborghini is guilty of this too. Every manufacturer which sends its team and driver to Nordshleife, Hockenheim, Silverstone etc. is using it as a marketing gimmick. Such cars are expensive BUT not that expensive that publications won't get their hands on them, just let the publications do the lap timing. > Lack of knowledge Clarkson said it best: "Porsches are for guys who only have sex in the missionary position, if they manage to get any pus*y at all"
