  • Rory headed out to the Sahara desert to test the new Porsche 911 Dakar in one of the most extreme environments possible. Is this SUV-inspired sports car the perfect go-anywhere vehicle? Or has Porsche lost the plot?

    In an era moving away from combustion engines, it's great to see Porsche and Lamborghini reluctant to let them go, and not just by releasing another regular model, but with left-field variants like the 911 Dakar and Huracán Sterrato. Keep the fires burning 🔥

    I'm glad to see all terrain sports cars finally arriving. There was that Aixam Megatrack in the 1990s... and the AMC Eagle SX4 kinda existed. Now there seems a handful of them so maybe we'll start seeing more affordable cars go this way too (raised 4wd Mustang that isn't also a SUV, for example)

    I really hope that this will start a trend among all the manufacturers to bring back their estates with high ground clearance. I myself would love any Allroad, Allterrain, Alltrack, Scout or whatever they will call them before having an SUV. These type of cars, like the 911 Dakar, have so much better handling than an SUV, but they don't lack the ground clearance needed for rough roads.

    Thank you for creating a story rooted in history, emotion, and magic. Makes us all feel like kids again. People may say there is no reason for its existence. But there absolutely is. It’s important to create things that comfortable, “rational” people find irrational because it puts a smile on the faces of everyone else that didn’t follow the script in life as well. And in this case-when the crazy ones out vote the suits-beautiful things can happen. Just waiting for the upgrade kit for my 991 GTS 🤣
