    The reason a lot of ultra light sports cars do have cruise control is that literally the only cost of installing it is 50 cent switch and a foot long of additional wire. Probably it would have cost more to develop a car without a cruise control as you would have to - at the very least - make different steering column panel, without the cutout for the switch.

  • @bwofficial1776

    Everything is computerized now, there's no cruise control module sitting on top of the throttle body with its own throttle cable any more. In the case of this 911, it shares the steering wheel and wiring harness with more daily-driver oriented 911s so everything's already there. The ounce that would be saved isn't worth it.

    Porsche won't let anyone sell these cars within the first year of ownership, you have to lease them through Porsche. So once they become available, it will 100% double in value like the 911R did back when it was new. The 911R's now cost $400,000 - $600,000, so I'd assume that these will easily cost that much if not more.

    OH MY GOD this is THE 911 S/T the greatest, most unbelievable 911 ever, the best sports car currently on sale and my most desired car ever. This is just the ultimate sports car. Sure, you can have your RSes for track use and all of that, but having all of the magic from the GT3 RS and being able to exploit it everywhere is JUST THE MOST WONDERFUL THING EVER 🔥🔥🔥 (And yes, as you can tell, I may like the 911 R and it's successor, the S/T just a little bit.)

Yes, I think the number is tacky but honestly, I kind of like the Porsche script on the doors so if I was given the option to remove the number but not the script that's how I would spec it but I of course can't afford this car anyhow.

The chrono package for $350 and USB type C charger for $48, and $18k for the chronograph design piece. All in, $415,880.
