I read it on a Facebook post, hope it's not the KEF stereo that's tinny that they refer to.Long term review on the 992 posted by Topgear which draws comparison to the Emira.
Porsche 911 Carrera 992 Coupe – long-term review - Report No:6 2023 | Top Gear
Ollie has a think about everyday sports cars after spending time in a new Lotus...www.topgear.com
It was.. but was a prototype.. maybe the subs were not connected for example? I don’t think kef would let it sound bad…
…. I agree and let’s not forget the 911 was well over £90k as tested. The 911 is an icon in terms of everyday usable sports car and has been honed over decades. I think it flattering for the pre-production Emira that a comparison was even considered when the 911 is really the in next league up.
I would agree, when he drove the Emira on track. He asked how does it compare against the porsche 718 4.0. He said That car ( 718 )is so good and easy to recommend, and then didn’t defend the Emira. Maybe he was being cautious, he’s a Porsche fanboy? I am still getting the Erima.
) and I’m buying an Emira. They are both great, why does one have to be better than the other?
It doesn't, but as you know, there are plenty of people out there who view things that way, especially in the automotive world.Well, I’m a Porsche fan boy (I prefer Porschephile
I love Porsche but like a passionate human I love the Emira. I grew up riding around in 930 turbos, 944 turbo & cad, 911 cab & targa. Lived close to a dealership where a mechanic would give me a rides when I was in high school. dreaming of Lamborghini, Lotus Espit & Ferrari 308 targa. I am just a connoisseur of beautiful machines. Had 2 Porsches, replacing one with the Emira
. Seems like a great thing! Like have a blond & a brunette
the French say “ Viva la be diferencia “ 
Thanks, that is really interesting real world feedback, much more relevant than yet another "professional" tester online!
for magazine testers and social media influences to be testing against all manner of metal less and more expensive!And equally the road testing on the streets where the kids with the go faster exhausts on their Corsa's and Fiesta ST's will want to show to their 16 year old girlfriend how fast their cars are to a "supercar"Hopefully they will compare base 992 manual to the V6 FE at some point (I'm sure they will). It would be interesting.
The PDK version would destroy the Emira Auto version tho I imagine, PDK really is the pinnacle of auto boxes.
Let's be honest the Emira will be this years Toyota GR Yaris so will be hot
Probably not much in it nowadays tbh!And equally the road testing on the streets where the kids with the go faster exhausts on their Corsa's and Fiesta ST's will want to show to their 16 year old girlfriend how fast their cars are to a "supercar"
I think at end of day it's a nice position to be in. Either car will be blooming brilliant
