If this kind of interior was to be put in a common car like a camaro, mustang, or challenger it would be called boring. But since its a 911 it's the best thing ever.

Since after the 80's and valuing materials and craftsmanship more than excessive design ..maybe not in the true sense of the word luxury but there is a problem here...

The idea that a 911 is a luxury car or even has that as one of its priorities is kind of funny.

Luxury can also just be something "exclusive" which this price tag definitely seems to be going after. I feel like with every car being sold by its in car tech and electronics rather than its driving experience a return to the basics is kind of refreshing.

Oh my the money. if I had the money for that thing...I'd buy a 1955 Porsche 356 instead. It practically would make you Steve McQueen to even drive one

THE 911 Turbo was always my dream sports car since a little kid... still is (a dream to own one) as a big little kid.

That price tag will leave you with nightmares.

Great looking car. I can tell Porsche is slowly going away from the "traditional" 911 look. Hopefully they don't really mess it up on future 911's.
No manual transmission option is just stupid. I know the PDK auto is awesome but there's nothing like shifting your own gears with a 3rd pedal. I'm sorry Porsche doesn't view this too now...

I always thought the Turbo was the bee's knees... til they came out with the GT3

The first picture is such a bad photoshop..

You're not reading between the lines when reading criticisms about our interiors. With interiors, the devil is in the details. The Porsche/Germans follow Bauhaus design methodology, but the materials/finish make it look nice. GM/Ford (used to) look like they were designed by "fat men from Kentucky" (to quote Jeremy Clarkson).

For example, that matte silver painted plastic that's copiously used by our class of cars - I mean who are they fooling with that sh!t? It clearly looks like painted plastic. No point faking something when it doesn't look like the real thing.

Take the ZL1 interior for instance: looks almost the same as the cheaper Camaros, but by simply using better materials (alcantera etc.), the interior looks more luxurious.

What's the difference between a $400 couch, and a $4000 couch? Ans: the $4000 couch looks simple and is made from leather, the $400 couch is made from polyster and has gaudy flair.

Not bad, but just don't buy one and have this happen...,

Someone that gets it - this is what I was talking about!
