SUPERIOR ATTITUDE; And why not?
Byline: WES RAYNAL
Our favorite long-term test car, the Basalt Black Porsche 911 that arrived in May, screamed through the second quarter with little drama.
Here's the bad news: The clutch pedal squeaks intermittently, and the fan switch shows signs of wear. That's it. We have no other problems to report. The Carrera spent zero days out of service, a pleasant surprise. We will have the clutch pedal addressed when we visit the dealer for the first scheduled service, at 20,000-miles.
Indeed, there is very little not to like about this car. We're done regretting not adding a navigation system when we ordered the car. Almost. Some of us are under the evidently mistaken impression that if an automaker puts a "nav'' button on the dash it should be connected to something.
Whatever. Besides the flawless reliability, there is a whole lot to love: The seating position is wonderful, and the seats comfortable and supportive. Steering feel and feedback are superb, the flat-six's sounds are beyond compare. There is an inherent rawness to this car that is rare in this world, and we love it.
