My backup might have just moved up closer to the FL5 lol. Holy shit it sounds good with proper audio equipment. Leave it to Larry to be the one to be able to get real GRC sounds.
That blow off valve? OOF sounds really good.

It seems like it, question is will the core and CE have these same sounds as the ME. I'm hoping so lol.

The engine sounds so rumbly, also. Didn't expect that.

Wow! Bad ass.

Not for me... But awesome. You love to see this.

I wish the STI was still around. EVO too.

Saw one for $124k near my place.

Cayman manual is my backup, but I'll put it off another two years after I'm unable to secure a Type R; save up more for that down payment
I was actually thinking the same now - Porsche manual in general in a couple years.

Sounds stupid but no center arm rest kills it for me.
Its the morizo edition, so its also got no back seats all in the name of "weight savings". I'll be shocked if the core and CE models don't have a centre arm rest.

An earlier video I saw of a Core or Circuit model was also missing the armrest.

Yeah but you CAN get the Core with the differentials
Oh cool, I forgot that. Hopefully it's not like the optional summer tires on my Civic SI (dealers were like "uh yeah, you can't get that option.") 😀

Do you really think so? (Sincere, not sarcastic)

I'd take a lower-cost circuit edition without the carbon roof for sure
I forgot the Core has the Performance Package option, so yeah, I'd be ok with a Core then, lol.

Besides the BOV is that what it's going to sound like? Do I hear differential whine like a touring car? Sounds amazing.
