Here we have the model in question, which has been lavishly equipped with great attention to detail—by a true connoisseur of the brand. First and foremost, the manual transmission: how easy and precise the car is to drive. Finally, no software interference with the purist driving experience. No driver-assistance systems (except for brake assist, which was already required by law back then), rear-axle steering, rear-wheel drive, 18-way sports seats with seat ventilation, and the lightweight carbon-fiber roof. What a driving experience! The engine is clearly audible, and combined with the sport exhaust system, it produces a more robust sound. Mountain roads become a delight. Longer drives can also be relaxing.
The over €40,000 spent on the car’s optional equipment also pays off visually: the Sport Design Package in high-gloss black, paired with the stunning Exclusive Design wheels (inspired by the Fuchs rims with polished winged spokes) and the exterior mirror housings in Arctic Gray (standard on the Carrera T). See for yourself.
