Default Don't know which Porsche to choose? Clarkson explains.

Confused by the many models of Porsches that are available and don't know which one to choose? Worry not Jermey Clarkson explains it in plain English and make it easy to understand. Make sure to watch it till the end.

Possible NWS at the end

Now that was really fun, love the summary at end too!

But on the topic of Porsche cars some special notes in vid were:

. Recognizing the C4S as a favorite, (unlike the Turbo where "this is fun but soon I will be dead")

. Noticing the intoxicating sound and feel of a Porsche can be enjoyed at any speed even 15 mph.

Good one Clarkson!

Only Porsche I really want to ever own is a 993 Turbo with Tiptronic (thats if there was one ever built).

It's an old segment but always fun!


I am, not taking into account the presented metaphors, have always been a fan of the C4S....
