Winning

What is it that makes any given car desirable? Looks are key in first impressions, but a truly appealing car goes beyond that initial attraction and makes you fall head over heels- for life.

To measure owner satisfaction as a whole, J.D. Power conducts an APEAL (Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout) Study that surveys thousands of new-vehicle buyers following the first 90 days of ownership, gathering responses to inquiries about 77 individual vehicle attributes. Using this information, the company is able to clearly determine which models/brands are the most appealing and satisfying to their owners. An attractive exterior and interior design, engaging performance, day-to-day usability, comfort, and amenities are all considered.

More than 69,000 new car owners took part in this years survey, spanning over 243 models from 33 manufacturers in 10 pertinent categories. This year, a total of 25 models receive an award for their overall appeal.

For the 13th consecutive year, Porsche dominated the survey with the highest overall APEAL index score of 884.

“The aim of our company’s actions is to have thrilled customers”, says Oliver Blume, President and CEO of Porsche AG. “The results of the J.D. Power study give us renewed confidence that we are following the right path with our strategy. It is now clear that alongside the quality of the product, it is also the level of service and communication with our customers that resonates.”

Porsche knows very well that appealing vehicles display attractive exterior and interior design, deliver engaging performance, and are packed with surprise-and-delight features. You can’t argue with the best, and Porsche never intends to be anything less. Take a peek into our vast inventory- and see the best in action for yourself.

The Fastest Porsche Ever- Coming Soon

Porsches fastest and most powerful street legal 911 ever has just been unveiled at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in England. Fastest ever sounds like a stretch, but 700 horsepower and a 0-60 mph time of only 2.7 seconds speak for themselves.

The interior of the 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS is endowed with sexy red Alacantara accents, black leather, and carbon fiber trim pieces. Special sport steering wheel shift paddles are also standard.

On the outside, the 911 GT2 RS wears large air intakes and outlets and a large imposing rear wing to improve its aerodynamics and down-force. The 911 GT2 RS has super wide wheels with the widest tires ever on a Porsche, and standard Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes help to keep the duo under control. The optional magnesium wheels are among the lightest ever produced for the sports car, and can help to achieve its top speed of more than 211 mph. Its titanium exhaust is among the lightest ever made by Porsche; it cuts 15 pounds from the current setup.

Powering the insanity is a 3.8-liter engine twin-turbo flat-six engine, designed like that of the engine that powers the 911 Turbo S. In the 911 GT2 RS, however, the 3.8L engine gets larger turbochargers and a new additional cooling system that sprays water on the intercoolers when the intake air temperature reaches a determined threshold.

The GT2 RS is a go-to car for owning the track, as it has exceptional dry grip thanks to its race-bred chassis with rear axle steering and Ultra High Performance tires. The stability management system is also tuned for spirited driving, but will still do you justice while cruising on the highway.

The 2018 Porsche 911 GT2 RS starts at $293,200, plus a $1,050 delivery fee. The GT2 RS will be arriving at dealerships in early 2018. You can easily inquire for more information/updates on the new Porsche here at our website.
