The drum roll please and but Robb report picking its car of the year yesterday I spoke exclusively -- Robb report's senior vice president group publisher David Arnold.
About how.
It -- about choosing the big winner and listen.
We had a hundred people come and they drove thirteen cars that -- in now -- the car he had back to back it was exhausting day even though you might not.
Understand how exhausting that can be they drove the -- got -- two and a half million dollars.
-- -- the Ferrari at -- -- 400000 dollars and of the thirteen cars they drove they picked the new Porsche 9/11 has carved out of two billion dollar car came in second.
How much is this car started to start a little under a 100000 dollars 90000 dollars in the -- and they beat the two million dollar car.
So you could actually get 25 movies instead of one begun to underscoring the idea that no car anywhere ever should cost two million dollars.
Now how fast can this baby go how fast the juror -- get it up and their test drive we got it up about a 12530.
Miles now that was just in the parking lot and that it was all fun from -- -- -- top -- to -- to question.
It was a hundred -- CAD has underneath you also now -- to sixty in about four point three seconds okay and other basic guy that would buy this car.
Gets real insecurity self confidence problems is that if someone that lies upon this -- has no insecurity problems.
-- so that's very good part of what about the drawback of the fact that this that tiny -- but dictated fit into it I've achieved good -- it easily uncomfortable it's really.
Get a try this take a look guys I'm six foot one of the bare feet.
Then I'm heavier than I -- -- so let's just see what the Black River is inside the Porsche told my gosh I can really like it actually reply in the and taken out nicely done.

In the -- and since 1963.
Told -- but -- about a drawback.
Now not really this has been around the fifty years this is such an iconic vehicles 9/11 I mean cross reference.
I don't think he's been on anyone's mind and -- -- this.
It's walk by people who really passionate for the Porsche brand.
Many people there and multiple ones over the years people of inflicting these two generations is -- it is one energy coming into the -- let's see -- product -- with you beside me.
And believe me if I did on this car I would not -- for you the first Friday and I would pick someone -- dozens of priority here.
Now discourse that have been around for fifty years but they just had a major redesign all they did this year I did indeed so I knew that this is what you're sitting in basically so.
It's -- up it's more compact that using aluminum in the manufacturing.
That results in more efficiency.
That -- most of gallon which is which is important even to someone that spending.
A 100000 -- from vehicle with the way gas prices are right now but it's an absolute joy to drive and every one that got out of the vehicle cause the Euro events.
Had a huge grip on the financing it was -- Joy to provide handouts let's -- -- just got this nice yellow traveled here on the shift its got a yellow -- here it's even got yellow seatbelts.
Which cut -- brother alarming.
It's kind of a sudden this particular model cost how much this -- fails to fully loaded this probably but I would say comes out somewhere around 11019.
Something around -- but does the warmest and ultimate.
Or -- -- infinite number of customizations.
You can put into the to the -- actuators that have taken -- -- terrible nice touch in it in this very digital car.
You've actually got an analogue clock with a second -- and going around which is.
Have a nice antiquated touch why do that do you think they did well that's that's another feature that's change what what's changed dramatically in this car is the interior.
Because the interior amusement -- people haven't really changed probably in twenty years -- so far this isn't a complete refresh the technology is different sound -- different.
And they voted for a -- they launched a few years ago -- -- -- -- -- yes which people have enjoyed the instrumentation so they've gone away from kind of the -- drive.
My -- control and they've gone to a variety of --
