The silly notion that all Porsches are boring because they are practical and usable and they all look the same is as outdated as DOS operating system. I mean just look at this gorgeous red Porsche 991 Turbo S and tell me you don’t want to just bite it!
We are prepared to argue that this Porsche 991 Turbo S is better looking than the Ferrari 458 Speciale. It is more usable as well, thanks to four-wheel-drive and higher ground clearance, and in the real world it is also faster. So yes, the 991TS is a better car than the Speciale. Now, fire at will…
