I quite like the Dakar but the idea of actually using one of these the way I use my Jeep Wrangler is too much for me.

Suggestion

I can imagine the costs of keeping it in good shape if it is used for its intended purpose to be very high, and simply having it to drive around the paved road defeats the purpose .

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

13 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/porsch... this formula looks like the 'new gt3'. Get ready for new variants / versions for the next 20 years. I won't complain, it is my favorite version and would very happily own one. Price likely to be very high though.

POST 2Original post

I love how 2500 units of a niche model nowadays counts like a limited edition car. I once owned a 997 GT2 Clubsport, one of I think c. 330 (about 1,100 in total I think) or thereabouts and that was not a limited edition, people just didn't buy them.

POST 3Original post

It’s going to start with a 2, isn’t it? I’d really hoped it was going to be slightly more attainable 2nd time around, like when they went from 911R to GT3 Touring.

I’d really hoped it was going to be slightly more attainable 2nd time around, like when they went from 911R to GT3 Touring. agreed, thought they would make the Dakar set-up an option on cooking models. Alas they insist on the ltd edition thing. Shame. Getting into Steratto territory at these levels, arguably a more special car.

POST 6Original post

Need to keep going with these ‘Limited’ editions with the EV strategy coming undone

POST 7Original post

Since the basic Carrera and Carrera S aren't available in 4wd form, I was hoping the Dakar pack might become the 4wd option on those - or the Carrera S at least. I don't want the hybrid gubbins but I do want a Dakar suspension/wheel setup with rear seats and no cage, at a more mainstream price. Oh well.

POST 10Original post

I quite like the Dakar but the idea of actually using one of these the way I use my Jeep Wrangler is too much for me. The Jeep can get scraped or dented and I don’t care. In winter if it hits snow and salt that’s fine. I have other Porsches but at the price of even a more widely available car is not for me. I can imagine the costs of keeping it in good shape if it is used for its intended purpose to be very high, and simply having it to drive around the paved road defeats the purpose .

POST 11Original post

Benzooki said: That would be a dream. Agree. The perfect car for UK roads, really. you'd not need to be terrified of pot holes or bad surface, in a 911.

That’s exactly what I was after - however, the move to the GTS powertrain may be necessary for the Dakar to become a 4 seater. I’ve read that the enlarged pump for the Dakar suspension (which is basically a beefed up version of the normal hydraulic nose lift system) interferes with the mounting bolts for the rear seats. The GTS apparently has more rooms round the engine so it may allow more packaging options.

The GTS apparently has more rooms round the engine so it may allow more packaging options. So next best hope is a 4-seater based on the 992.2 GTS which costs £200k list I guess. Not quite so easy to justify over a Carrera S for me.
