I want to ask the hardcore Porsche guys here a question:

Porsche and 911 in particular are considered the pinnacle of automotive engineering excellence. But is there something you miss from other cars you have owned or driven? Is there a car brand that does something a little better? For e.g. steering feel of a Lotus or transmission shifts of a Ferrari or something like that?

I will leave out the obvious: I know Porsche is not known for luxury of a Rolls Royce/Bentley… So :)

    My Jaguar F pace has a heads up display where the speed is visible on the windshield unlike my 911.

      I have a love/hate with these. If that hologram/projection is not adjustable I would usually rather not have it. Being very tall I can’t see it unless I hunch down. On the new suburban we drove for a period it had an adjustment where I could aim it up or down. That was slick

        My wife’s X3 has it. The big problem I’ve encountered is that polarized sunglasses completely hide it unless a tilt my head.
