A little undecided on the new Porsche 935, unveiled last week? Not sure whether to laud such an emotive last hurrah for the 991-generation 911, or despair at so much effort going into a track-only car that can"t even race, despite its livery? Allow this video to make up your mind. It"s made up ours. Without the connotations of classic Martini colours to cloud our judgement, and with the 935"s surprisingly motorsport soundtrack bouncing off the concrete of Monza, we"re utterly sold. For one, it looks outrageously mean in matt black. To the point we"d almost beg Porsche to forgo its prescribed colour scheme to keep ours like this. Then there"s the way it jinks over the kerbs and snaps through corners, with no slack or hesitation. This looks like a ruthlessly set up car with which to pick apart a circuit. Even one that takes as few prisoners as Monza.
