I've always wanted a cool car. I'm in my mid forties now. Never been a boy racer fan but some of the most aesthetically cool cars were supercars and I was under the impression they were becoming easier to live with all the time. Two things have always been true, nearly every single online research arena or tv/youtube reviewer has called the 911 the ultimate, most practical, most livable supercar. They also claim other cars require more compromises than the 911.

Here's the kicker, I rented a 911 (992.1 4S) and drove it over a weekend. Mix of city, highway and backroad driving and it was a revelation. In the bends, it was amazing, no understeer at all. I had never experienced that in BMW's and mercs etc. But man, it was so unbeliebably harsh and loud. So much road noise filtering in. So much vibration.

If this is what they call 'livable', i don't know what 'compromised' is. Yes, kids were fine in the back seats. Yes, visibility is good, Yes, the tech works and the build quality is great, but those things have been fixed in most modern cars today, haven't they? (maybe not the back seats).

I'm back to square one in my research. That level of harshness is simply not livable daily. I mean, the percentage of times i'll be enjoying it on back roads is just miniscule to compromise the daily driving THAT much. Curious to hear from others.

Everyone is focused on the fact that under carrick we’ve won 10, drawn 2 and lost 2.

The most important bit for me is that the 2 we’ve lost have been by a single goal. We haven’t been blown away in any game. I seem to remember the last 2 coaches making a habit of 7-0, 7-1 losses.

We haven’t blown anyone away either and that’s important for the future. Teams must feel United could punish them 4-0, 5-0 or worse for them to get defensive, especially at old trafford.

But it seems we haven’t been played off the field by anyone.

Can anyone think of any game we got lucky on the scores but were actually completely outplayed like under EtH or RA?
