In episode 28, we're talking about the 991.1, the last generation of Porsche's 911 to come with a naturally aspirated flat six on all standard models (except for the 911 Turbo, which has always been turbocharged). Joining us again is Columbia Valley Luxury Cars Owner and Porsche Panorama Contributor Nathan Merz. We’ll review the many different variations of 991.1 available, what options you should look for in your purchase, as well as what you should expect to pay.

Half a decade later it was followed up by the more powerful but heavier 981-generation Spyder. We've often wondered what they would reveal if driven back to back, and fortunately contributor Nathan Merz had the chance to find out.
