just buy an older corvette or honda, or porsche its not that hard you can find alot of older cars under 8 or 5 grand. Just bewilling and ready to work on them
I'm so glad I've been able to watch MKBHD go from filming in his college room to filming in front of his Porsche. He deserves what he has and put in good work to get it.
I guess you think that makes you special or something? Should talk about driving past his old high school in Jersey back in the day on my regular commute as well, because you know that clearly connects me to him.
Puts in the work and doesn't push others down to get there from what I can tell. Classy guy. Well deserved success. I miss the cereal boxes occasionally, tho ;)
I love that you reviewed (and drive) my literal dream car. Your reviews and perceptive are next level, I’m always 100% focused on your thoughts and what you share compared to other reviewers. Now I’m even more excited to drive this car when it comes in soon 🙌🏽
That gloss stripes on the matte body are just killing it!! Never seen it like this but loved it instantly! Considering it too for my Ioniq 6 wrap in some other way

@@Tbland0930what he failed to mention is the plaid is a 10/10 speed but has no luxury. The fit and finish inside a porsche is night and day.

@@user-my4xu4gf1z I think you are glossing over the fact that a Porsche is far more expensive than a Tesla. Yes, German quality is always going to be better than something made in America, but if Tesla made a supercar and sold it for a similar price, it would be made a lot nicer than a regular Tesla.
That car is beyond beautiful. If I ever have the money, I'm going to buy one of these. You're right about the contrast between the satin and glossy black; it looks incredible.
I've watched a ton of reviews on the turbo S before I bought mine, and this is the best review. Your description that the turbo S is a 9 our of 10 in every category is the best way to describe it. Excellent review.
Haha, have been looking at a second hand taycan turbo s cross turismo, found a lovely one for £95k, then realised if i want certain things like ventilated seats, 4 zone climate and so on, it's £150k 😂

Incredible Color!! Never have seen anything Close to this............and the fact that you picked it up specked like it is from a Showroom in Boston!!!! borders on a Major miracle
Great Choice! My all-time favorite car to drive was a 1979 VW Rabbit manual. Stripped down and amazing handling locally in Plainfield, NJ. Porsche is an amazing driver's car. Good luck!
This is a great choice. Everybody on the youtubes is now buying a GT3 or GT3 RS but this Turbo S is more versatile and less punishing as a daily sports driver. Dare I say sensible choice.
Strange to see someone coming from a world where have a phone key for a car is the norm. Took me a second to understand what Marques was talking about.
I think it’s just because it’s luxury you kinda feel like it should- like how tesla (just first example on top of my head) you can start and heat car without being anywhere near it, cars that cost triple or more should have these features. If i’m paying 150k+ for a car it kinda seems silly to not have things that a 30k car has- even like wireless charging.
You seem so legitimately happy and excited about this purchase. Like how we felt getting a playstation for Christmas as kids.. good for you! God bless and drive safe.
Congratulations brother! We are the same age and have been following you since we where kids, with that being said, I feel like a proud friend. Enjoy! 🏎️😈
Congrats! Red breaks were actually standard on the 911. The breaks were called the big reds on the 917 and the 993 turbos. The colors of the break calipers indicate the break pad/rotor type you have. Yellow/Green = carbon ceramic.
the fact that you achieved all this by yourself from literally nothing is incredible marques. You should be proud of it and don't overthink it, enjoy life while you can because you deserve it!
@@jojodroid31 If you actually cared about a "climate catastrophic" you would use public transport or riding a bike. An EV, although less polluting than ICE cars, still is very bad for the environment. But sure keep sitting on your high horse.
Congrats, Marques! The 992 Turbo S is sensational. I work for Porsche, and out of all the cars I have driven, the Turbo S is my favorite for the reasons you mentioned. Great buy! A few things to note, wireless phone chargers are an option and, sadly, are not standard equipment, but they are available when speccing the car. Also, the My Porsche companion app does allow you to pre-climatize the cabin along with the ability to lock/ unlock, viewing TPMS, the trip computer, as you mentioned, and setting speed or valet alarms. The Porsche dealership should have set it up and showed it to you upon delivery. Also, for those that want to order a Porsche and are thinking about the dashcam, I highly recommend that you opt for the dashcam pre-wiring, which saves a lot of time and money. It can be done when you configure your car. The Porsche-branded dashcams are mounted just above the windshield and rear window panels. The Porsche dashcam app allows one to save videos and view a live camera feed, which you may find similar to what Tesla offers. Again, congratulations! Enjoy the car, and we look forward to seeing future videos on it!
@isaac10231 it's incredibly rewarding. You have the opportunity to represent a highly-respected brand and share it with others. Getting to drive some of the best cars ever built along with meeting many wonderful people is pure bliss. It's not always easy, as many people hold you to a high standard due to the brand you are representing. But if you measure up, you'll be reap the benefits. Also, the employee leasing deals are jaw-droppingly good. Porsche takes care of their employees, and they want their employees to drive Porsches. Many of my colleagues do. If you can find a position at the dealership or corporate level, I highly recommend pursuing it.
Hey @zeldafan4567 just an observation, but if MKBHD wasn't able to find a few features on the App, then that app is might be poorly designed? If a tech youtuber isn't able to find the options, then it might also apply to the general public. Might be worth a thought?
@ApuroopS not necessarily. The app is quite intuitive and a great deal of resources have gone into making it easy to use and operate. Previous versions were rather cumbersome, admittedly. I have used the app extensively, and the button to initiate the pre-climitization is on the app's main screen, which is the screen that the app opens to. It's quite easy to use and figure out. Some dealers don't include that as part of the new vehicle orientation. I, personally have had to set up and show customers how to use the app who did not buy their Porsche from my dealership. You'd be surprised as to how many simply gloss over the app.
Congratulations! love seeing hard work pay off. You have my dream car. If I had to pick one, it would be the same...or a GTS for the manual. Absolutely gorgeous.
Absolutely love this spec. It isn’t “murdered out” in the 2009 way but it’s still stealthy. Great mix and I actually love you painted the calipers red. Like “it’s my car and it’s nunya…” haha
Agreed that PCCBs are typically yellow Though at 6:55 those look like PCCBs and I believe PCCBs are standard on the 992 turbo S So I think he just has PCCBs with red calipers 😂
I can’t put into words how proud of you I am Marques. You came into a brand new media scene and carved out a niche, and owned it for the entire time. This is the result of that first HP Pavilion Media Centre video you made. Props brother.
@@aswinbiju4038 people tend to form attachements to others that they never met or know personally just because they saw them on television, once, and today social network. Moreover rich people have always been idolized, often in some kind of "One day I could become rich like them" sort of way... i find it strange and a bit repulsive, but unless it's psychotic they don't hurt anyone so we can let them be.
@@lilietto1 I’m in the same industry as Marques, and have watched him on TH-cam ever not long after he started, as that’s when I started to get into the industry myself. I’ve also met him a couple times at events. I’m genuinely proud of seeing his success. He’s not just some TikTok influencer, or some prank TH-camr. He’s one of the first, and biggest independent tech reviewers, in an industry that was previously only ever possible by joining a media corporation (like I did).
a man of my taste! Congrats on the new ride and after this ... hard to go with anything else LOL. Soon you'll end up with a full garage of parts. Cheers and enjoy it in good health!
You've put more miles on that car in that short space of time than some gentlemen have put on their Porsches they've owned for a decade plus. I love it.
Naah Turbo S owners drive the shit out of them. You can find a lot of +80k miles used for sale. They don’t hold value like a GT car and their mainly used as daily drivers. The ones who stay in the garage is the GT3’s GT2’s and variants because they appreciate a lot in value so people keep them pristine. Plus they’re not very friendly to daily drive it. It’s a rough ride.
I always feel like it's such a shame when cars are left sitting in a garage somewhere because they're too "expensive" to drive around in. A lot of people spend a lot of time making cars like these and it's somewhat of a disservice to their efforts in my opinion.
Wow Marques - great back story leading to the purchase. Four years ago after wanting a sports car for 12 years at least, I bought my Porsche 911 Carrera T (Black on Black murdered of course with Yellow interior trim) 1st sports car at age 74. Early in 2023 at age 78, I took it to a DE event in Purnam Race Park. It is a daily driver that gets covered for a couple of months in Kentucky.
Marques: Gets a tesla solar roof on his house so he can live off the grid and charge his electric car with it Also Marques: Sells his Tesla and buys a gas car
The tesla solar is to live off grid and power the house mostly, charging his cars would be the last thing he is concerned about when getting a grid for ur house. Both are different and has nothing to do with buying a gas car.
Having watched Marques since his early days, I beamed through this entire video. Still so proud of his accomplishments but watching his car awakening culminating in this Porsche will keep me beaming for days. Some of us are just drivers. That’s it.
The 911 is an iconic sports car, mostly built for the track. You bought the daily driver version with the max tech and comfort that Porsche does. Now I want one even more 😊
Marques ! Long time fan here. Love your channel. Funny (and classy) w the red calipers on a Porsche with ceramic brakes. Feedback: happy surprised abt your classy spec!
On my list for when the kids grow up. I've several times gotten one as a loaner when on service. It's so much fun - I love it. For now though, it's better to have something with space for me and the kids.
Congrats. You've earned this. This video reminds me of when Dough DeMuro got his Carerra GT. And the 911 is, IMO, the overall "best" sports car you can buy. As you said, it's not the best at anything, but overall still "the best." The build quality can not be beat.
Hearing that you’re not driving a Tesla anymore sounds crazy. But honestly there isn’t another car that’s better than the Porsche 911 Turbo S. looking forward to the vids you share in it
That means he’s turning into a man lol. Tesla’s are for the techie nerds and he’s starting to realize “huh, so this is why combustion engine cars are the shit” especially a 911
@@zahf6484They understand and appreciate cars, just cars you don't like and they happen to have a preference for. Some people like modded out shit boxes and yet I think they're gross as shit, I'd rather a stock M series or a C63. Same goes for people that like JDMs. They're not for everyone. Some people just prefer EVs and specifically Teslas.
I love that Marques is now a Porsche guy. Great pick. I’ve watched many 911 reviews and I don’t think I’ve ever heard someone say it’s a 9/10 at everything and that’s what makes it great. Love that analogy. Great looking and driving car. The dream😍
Congrats on getting your dream car! Seems like you took a lot of time weighing options and researching. Excited to see more content around the Porsche, and definitely will be watching the auction closely.
He gives me Return on Investment guru vibes. From best tech bang for the buck. To best video gear bang for the buck. And now he chose the car with best resale value on the market. Watching you man. Even the sport he plays has big exercise benefit and low hype. I’m watching man. Keep doing your thing.
I remember to see 16 year old kid in a tech channel mkbhd, showing some off the self point and shoot camera and stuff like that, now he is showing the brand new porche with custom collor. That is just amazing.
I drove a 2018 Porsche Cayman through Turo. As a pretty basic base model car, it was, by far, the best driving experience I've ever had. The car knew what I wanted to do before I did. And, I think, that is the point of a Porsche. It is a drivers car, ready to do whatever you want at any second.
@@Nobodyfashoooo Really? I’ve had 12 Porsches and have gone on to what you would probably consider more exotic brands so I’m comparing with a lot of other performance cars. I honestly can’t say I meet many that say Porsche 911’s are “not that special”. My experience with them is they are phenomenal performers. Why do you own one if you’re not enjoying?
Agreed!! I’ve had all the German performance brands. RS M and AMG cars (several) and just finally got behind the wheel of a 911 GTS. When I can afford the switch I will 😂!!!!!
@@ambersweet6951100%! Consider this - a McLaren 765LT will take out a million dollar Ferrari SF90! But that same 765LT which runs around $600K will be troubled by a 911 Turbo S! When you consider that and fact you can drop the kids off to school in it without a lot of fanfare - that is just bonkers!!!!! I stand by my original comment - they’re a real treat!
@@samn1217 I have a note on it and I made money from buying it but it’s not terrible like it’s a car I do like driving it but I like driving my Range Rover more tbh but yk everybody is different
Congrats on the new car! It'll be very interesting to see if you start dabbling in increasingly-raw cars (maybe moving to things like a Miata, or even a Lotus).
That's a hell of a car. Had a chance to drive it for a few minutes and I can't agree more that it's the best car in the world. The steering feel is unforgettable. The rear steering is so accurate and unobtrusive. Acceleration is both violent and confidence inspiring. I'd chose more subtle spec but this one is great too. I'm glad Marques got this 911, hoping for a full review.
Porsche has done such an incredible job to maintain its racing heritage, design, R&D, engineering, drive train technology, etc. better than almost any other brand. Ferrari is up there also! But I agree. This is a great sports car...I'm envious for sure! Best wishes! Mixing hybrid technology as it advances to this type of vehicle would be incredible. HP / Torque and better MPG's. Win / Win
I agree. Porsche is for me also the only German car maker, who was able to bring that unique feeling of their legacy cars over to the Porsche Taycan. Okay maybe also BMW, but they build their EVs on ther ICE-platform.
Man, I got to drive a 992 Turbo S on track a few weeks ago and its the most intense thing Ive ever experienced behind the wheel. Great car, and congratulations!
I’m OG who has used his reviews on Apple products to make smarter purchases. I’m glad to see his success and joy in making an educated dream purchase. Congratulation and keep on doing what you do best.
@@shimeymerih I owned a 2005 911 for about a year. Fun car but I couldn’t have a conversation with the person sitting right next to me. Pretty immature if you ask me
To discover that my man, Marquees, a man that I have known for linking tech and EVs, is actually also a car guy just like me? AWESOME. 🔥 Congratulations on your 911 Turbo S, Marquees! I absolutely love it, and I love how your spec matches your vibe so much ❤️🖤
I am finding it hard to respect Marquese, you are basically the automotive journalist for the tech world (very careful not to bum hurt the corps, because you want to keep the access and money coming), and now you actually went full circle and became and actual automotive journalist.
Because he reviews technology, he cant review cars? This is his channel and he can do what he wants. Your opinion doesnt matter at all. His name is stapled in the tech industry. Im sure folks wont care if he gets a car. He can talk about things he enjoys
@@lagod63 that is not what I said, He ALWAYS had the energy of an automotive journalist, it has nothing to do with what he reviews, but I was not able to put my feelings in words. Also, your opinion of my opinion doesn't matter haha
had a 2014 porsche 911 turbo s.. 100% right on all points. Speed, quiet, handling - Feels like a rollercoaster you're controlling. razor handling and insane speed / acceleration.
I was a follower in MKBHD's main channel for how long... you turned 30 😲 wooow its been amazing journey, an institutional figure ... Thank you brother ...
Totally agree that this is a 9/10 car in all categories...which basically makes it a 10/10 car. And loving the collab with Doug and Cars&Bids!! Good luck with the auction 👍
As a car enthusiast who has been watching Marques since the days where he still filmed from his bedroom, I am extremely pleased seeing him turn into a carguy lol I was smiling all the way throughout the video 🤩 Who knows, maybe we'll get to see him interviewing Hamilton (since he was invited by Ferrari at the Vegas GP)
Hey Marquis! Happy birthday to you man and congratulations!! I can’t think of anyone else who is more deserving of a birthday gift as this than you. You’ve worked hard, you’ve earned it, and you are an inspiration to an “older“ gearhead such as myself.
What am I seeing Marques turning into a real combustion car guy , I love it , I think eco friendly internal combustion engine fuel technology is the future so that we can have fast and loud cars with 0 air pollution. The car looks dope man
This might be one, if not my favorite 911 color scheme/spec. Looks so sweet, especially the gloss stripe on the hood🤤. Also love the gloss/satin contrast. Congrats!
Wow, what a nice first sports car for a guy who just turned 30. I too bought my first Porsche, a 911S, pumpkin orange with black vinyl interior, no AC. Congrats! I hope, unlike so many owners, that you will actually drive the car instead of keeping it garaged and pristine. Porsches are meant to be driven not treated like investments, they aren't rare, not a Lambo or Ferrari.

You seem so legitimately happy and excited about this purchase. Like how we felt getting a playstation for Christmas as kids.. good for you! God bless and drive safe.
Congratulations brother! We are the same age and have been following you since we where kids, with that being said, I feel like a proud friend. Enjoy! 🏎️😈
Congrats, great choice and great spec!
Wonder will this receive the CarPlay update?

This will be the best car you ever own. Porsche just knows what they are doing.
wouldn't be surprised if he gets a Taycan next
funny enough i would argue the 997 gt3 is better haha

@@evillales25 from turbo S to Taycan? What a downgrade..
@@tolaut compared to a turbo s? Absolutely, but it’s the best looking EV, especially the sport turismo
Congrats! Red breaks were actually standard on the 911. The breaks were called the big reds on the 917 and the 993 turbos. The colors of the break calipers indicate the break pad/rotor type you have. Yellow/Green = carbon ceramic.
It’s fun seeing Marques enjoying the fruits of his well deserved success.
the fact that you achieved all this by yourself from literally nothing is incredible marques. You should be proud of it and don't overthink it, enjoy life while you can because you deserve it!
This thinking got us into the mess that the climate catastrophe is. We just can't afford cars like this anymore.
@@jojodroid31 as if electrical cars aren't going to another climate crisis
@@jojodroid31 If you actually cared about a "climate catastrophic" you would use public transport or riding a bike. An EV, although less polluting than ICE cars, still is very bad for the environment. But sure keep sitting on your high horse.
he has a team. he did not do this by himself
@@nuddin99 I'm sitting on my high -horse- ebike and judging all of you.
Congrats, Marques! The 992 Turbo S is sensational. I work for Porsche, and out of all the cars I have driven, the Turbo S is my favorite for the reasons you mentioned. Great buy!
A few things to note, wireless phone chargers are an option and, sadly, are not standard equipment, but they are available when speccing the car. Also, the My Porsche companion app does allow you to pre-climatize the cabin along with the ability to lock/ unlock, viewing TPMS, the trip computer, as you mentioned, and setting speed or valet alarms. The Porsche dealership should have set it up and showed it to you upon delivery.
Also, for those that want to order a Porsche and are thinking about the dashcam, I highly recommend that you opt for the dashcam pre-wiring, which saves a lot of time and money. It can be done when you configure your car. The Porsche-branded dashcams are mounted just above the windshield and rear window panels. The Porsche dashcam app allows one to save videos and view a live camera feed, which you may find similar to what Tesla offers.
Again, congratulations! Enjoy the car, and we look forward to seeing future videos on it!
What it like working for Porsche?
@isaac10231 it's incredibly rewarding. You have the opportunity to represent a highly-respected brand and share it with others. Getting to drive some of the best cars ever built along with meeting many wonderful people is pure bliss. It's not always easy, as many people hold you to a high standard due to the brand you are representing. But if you measure up, you'll be reap the benefits. Also, the employee leasing deals are jaw-droppingly good. Porsche takes care of their employees, and they want their employees to drive Porsches. Many of my colleagues do. If you can find a position at the dealership or corporate level, I highly recommend pursuing it.
@@zeldafan4567 well well well. New goal unlocked lol
Hey @zeldafan4567 just an observation, but if MKBHD wasn't able to find a few features on the App, then that app is might be poorly designed? If a tech youtuber isn't able to find the options, then it might also apply to the general public. Might be worth a thought?
@ApuroopS not necessarily. The app is quite intuitive and a great deal of resources have gone into making it easy to use and operate. Previous versions were rather cumbersome, admittedly. I have used the app extensively, and the button to initiate the pre-climitization is on the app's main screen, which is the screen that the app opens to. It's quite easy to use and figure out. Some dealers don't include that as part of the new vehicle orientation. I, personally have had to set up and show customers how to use the app who did not buy their Porsche from my dealership. You'd be surprised as to how many simply gloss over the app.
Congratulations! love seeing hard work pay off. You have my dream car. If I had to pick one, it would be the same...or a GTS for the manual. Absolutely gorgeous.
Absolutely love this spec. It isn’t “murdered out” in the 2009 way but it’s still stealthy. Great mix and I actually love you painted the calipers red. Like “it’s my car and it’s nunya…” haha
The yellow calibers are fine, but going red on your 992 911 Turbo S was definitely the right choice 👍👍
Agreed. 😊
It would've been sacrilege if he didn't go red.
I think the meaning of yellow Porsche calipers is that the car is equipped with carboceramic brakes, its not just an aestethic thing.
@@PaulTC777that’s right, PCCB are yellow, steel brakes are red
Agreed that PCCBs are typically yellow
Though at 6:55 those look like PCCBs and I believe PCCBs are standard on the 992 turbo S
So I think he just has PCCBs with red calipers 😂
I can’t put into words how proud of you I am Marques. You came into a brand new media scene and carved out a niche, and owned it for the entire time. This is the result of that first HP Pavilion Media Centre video you made. Props brother.
you his dad or something?
@@aswinbiju4038 No, but I can be your daddy if you like?
@@aswinbiju4038 people tend to form attachements to others that they never met or know personally just because they saw them on television, once, and today social network. Moreover rich people have always been idolized, often in some kind of "One day I could become rich like them" sort of way... i find it strange and a bit repulsive, but unless it's psychotic they don't hurt anyone so we can let them be.
@@lilietto1 I’m in the same industry as Marques, and have watched him on TH-cam ever not long after he started, as that’s when I started to get into the industry myself. I’ve also met him a couple times at events. I’m genuinely proud of seeing his success. He’s not just some TikTok influencer, or some prank TH-camr. He’s one of the first, and biggest independent tech reviewers, in an industry that was previously only ever possible by joining a media corporation (like I did).
marques if u read this i wanna work with you ty. (specialized in cleaning the floor)
a man of my taste! Congrats on the new ride and after this ... hard to go with anything else LOL. Soon you'll end up with a full garage of parts. Cheers and enjoy it in good health!
Congratulations my brother keep doing great
You've put more miles on that car in that short space of time than some gentlemen have put on their Porsches they've owned for a decade plus. I love it.
1200 miles? are u kidding?
Naah Turbo S owners drive the shit out of them. You can find a lot of +80k miles used for sale. They don’t hold value like a GT car and their mainly used as daily drivers. The ones who stay in the garage is the GT3’s GT2’s and variants because they appreciate a lot in value so people keep them pristine. Plus they’re not very friendly to daily drive it. It’s a rough ride.
I always feel like it's such a shame when cars are left sitting in a garage somewhere because they're too "expensive" to drive around in. A lot of people spend a lot of time making cars like these and it's somewhat of a disservice to their efforts in my opinion.

Good for you MKB - enjoy the spoils of your hard work and success.
Been watching him for over 10 years now and I had the biggest smile watching him nerd out about his new Porsche. Enjoy the car my guy!
992 turbo s is one of my favorite's, but can get boring after thousands of miles. I can't wait to see you upgrade to a 992 GT3RS one day
can’t really get one of those without a decade of history as an established porsche customer
Didn’t expect to see you here xD
man i remember watching your videos alo :0
forget the porsche that bentley is a head turner
@@JPK1337 nope, just need to know someone at a Porsche dealer so they can give you allocation
Wow Marques - great back story leading to the purchase. Four years ago after wanting a sports car for 12 years at least, I bought my Porsche 911 Carrera T (Black on Black murdered of course with Yellow interior trim) 1st sports car at age 74. Early in 2023 at age 78, I took it to a DE event in Purnam Race Park. It is a daily driver that gets covered for a couple of months in Kentucky.
I'm happy that you bought a car that you love and like. Happy for you, genuinely 🙂 I'm looking forward to the full review, whenever it comes.
Marques: Gets a tesla solar roof on his house so he can live off the grid and charge his electric car with it
Also Marques: Sells his Tesla and buys a gas car
Yeah, doesn't make sense, does it?
I think he is moving away from affiliating himself with Tesla. maybe too disappointed with Tesla's promises.
Go drive a 911, it 100% makes sense. One car is built to be an efficient commuter car, the other is purpose built to be fun.
@@arielpulmanohe could have had a Porsche Taycan :/
The tesla solar is to live off grid and power the house mostly, charging his cars would be the last thing he is concerned about when getting a grid for ur house. Both are different and has nothing to do with buying a gas car.
As someone who works for Porsche Germany 🇩🇪 , all I can say is - congratulations. A very wise decision. ❤
pls give me an internship im german aswell
So happy for you - tiny Marques in that battery review video would be proud!
Really happy for you dude. Congrats on your Porsche
Having watched Marques since his early days, I beamed through this entire video. Still so proud of his accomplishments but watching his car awakening culminating in this Porsche will keep me beaming for days. Some of us are just drivers. That’s it.
He earned it that's for sure
After trying all things electric, he is now realising why us ice fanboys dont like evs as sport vehicles.
The 911 is an iconic sports car, mostly built for the track. You bought the daily driver version with the max tech and comfort that Porsche does. Now I want one even more 😊
in USA, in EU it S HIT.
I'd still get the gt3 in jet black with silver polished wheels tho
Maybe if you want one, you should know how it's spelled first...
@@sebastiansebastianowicz7824 why though
@@saintyami5325speedbumps
Marques ! Long time fan here. Love your channel. Funny (and classy) w the red calipers on a Porsche with ceramic brakes. Feedback: happy surprised abt your classy spec!
On my list for when the kids grow up. I've several times gotten one as a loaner when on service. It's so much fun - I love it. For now though, it's better to have something with space for me and the kids.
Congrats. You've earned this. This video reminds me of when Dough DeMuro got his Carerra GT. And the 911 is, IMO, the overall "best" sports car you can buy. As you said, it's not the best at anything, but overall still "the best." The build quality can not be beat.
A few Ferrari enthusiast might beg to differ.
Hearing that you’re not driving a Tesla anymore sounds crazy. But honestly there isn’t another car that’s better than the Porsche 911 Turbo S. looking forward to the vids you share in it
I'm still waiting for a Tesla bro to come here and yap about how a Tesla Plaid would smoke it. They just don't understand and appreciate cars.
He still has the Rivian.
That means he’s turning into a man lol. Tesla’s are for the techie nerds and he’s starting to realize “huh, so this is why combustion engine cars are the shit” especially a 911
@@zahf6484They understand and appreciate cars, just cars you don't like and they happen to have a preference for.
Some people like modded out shit boxes and yet I think they're gross as shit, I'd rather a stock M series or a C63. Same goes for people that like JDMs. They're not for everyone. Some people just prefer EVs and specifically Teslas.
Congratulations on all the success Marques
Looks amazing man, congrats!
I love that Marques is now a Porsche guy. Great pick. I’ve watched many 911 reviews and I don’t think I’ve ever heard someone say it’s a 9/10 at everything and that’s what makes it great. Love that analogy. Great looking and driving car. The dream😍

He gives me Return on Investment guru vibes. From best tech bang for the buck. To best video gear bang for the buck. And now he chose the car with best resale value on the market. Watching you man. Even the sport he plays has big exercise benefit and low hype. I’m watching man. Keep doing your thing.
Ferraris have better resale but they won’t sell you one.
Congrats!! So awesome. Amazing spec too
I remember to see 16 year old kid in a tech channel mkbhd, showing some off the self point and shoot camera and stuff like that, now he is showing the brand new porche with custom collor. That is just amazing.
I drove a 2018 Porsche Cayman through Turo. As a pretty basic base model car, it was, by far, the best driving experience I've ever had. The car knew what I wanted to do before I did. And, I think, that is the point of a Porsche. It is a drivers car, ready to do whatever you want at any second.
It's still an ICE nuisance.
It’s psychological son. Porsche has poisoned our minds😂

I have one, they’re not that special
@@Nobodyfashoooo Really? I’ve had 12 Porsches and have gone on to what you would probably consider more exotic brands so I’m comparing with a lot of other performance cars. I honestly can’t say I meet many that say Porsche 911’s are “not that special”. My experience with them is they are phenomenal performers. Why do you own one if you’re not enjoying?
Agreed!! I’ve had all the German performance brands. RS M and AMG cars (several) and just finally got behind the wheel of a 911 GTS. When I can afford the switch I will 😂!!!!!
@@ambersweet6951100%! Consider this - a McLaren 765LT will take out a million dollar Ferrari SF90! But that same 765LT which runs around $600K will be troubled by a 911 Turbo S!

@@samn1217 I have a note on it and I made money from buying it but it’s not terrible like it’s a car I do like driving it but I like driving my Range Rover more tbh but yk everybody is different
The matte/gloss mix is gorgeous. Congratulations on getting one of the finest cars ever built.
Thank you for being in the 1% of people who actually pronounce Porshe correctly.
Congrats on the new car! It'll be very interesting to see if you start dabbling in increasingly-raw cars (maybe moving to things like a Miata, or even a Lotus).
That's a hell of a car. Had a chance to drive it for a few minutes and I can't agree more that it's the best car in the world. The steering feel is unforgettable. The rear steering is so accurate and unobtrusive. Acceleration is both violent and confidence inspiring. I'd chose more subtle spec but this one is great too. I'm glad Marques got this 911, hoping for a full review.
What is its price?
Around $160-180k
@@filonizgood luck getting it for that
They are 240k, plus options and tax, fully loaded around 300k out the door - configure it & see for yourself!
This is what Porsche are known for
Porsche has done such an incredible job to maintain its racing heritage, design, R&D, engineering, drive train technology, etc. better than almost any other brand. Ferrari is up there also! But I agree. This is a great sports car...I'm envious for sure! Best wishes! Mixing hybrid technology as it advances to this type of vehicle would be incredible. HP / Torque and better MPG's. Win / Win
I agree. Porsche is for me also the only German car maker, who was able to bring that unique feeling of their legacy cars over to the Porsche Taycan. Okay maybe also BMW, but they build their EVs on ther ICE-platform.
Happy for ya. Be safe out there!
congratulations, enjoy, as a long time porsche owner(51 years). I have daily driven them and it's a love hate relationship!
Man, I got to drive a 992 Turbo S on track a few weeks ago and its the most intense thing Ive ever experienced behind the wheel. Great car, and congratulations!

Congratulations on your 911 Turbo S, Marquees! I absolutely love it, and I love how your spec matches your vibe so much ❤️🖤
I am finding it hard to respect Marquese, you are basically the automotive journalist for the tech world (very careful not to bum hurt the corps, because you want to keep the access and money coming), and now you actually went full circle and became and actual automotive journalist.
Because he reviews technology, he cant review cars? This is his channel and he can do what he wants. Your opinion doesnt matter at all. His name is stapled in the tech industry. Im sure folks wont care if he gets a car. He can talk about things he enjoys

Totally agree that this is a 9/10 car in all categories...which basically makes it a 10/10 car.
And loving the collab with Doug and Cars&Bids!! Good luck with the auction 👍
Call me crazy, but why is the buyer also paying the 4.5% commission fee?
Well done mate- good for you, and a gorgeous car, no other way to put it.
As a car enthusiast who has been watching Marques since the days where he still filmed from his bedroom, I am extremely pleased seeing him turn into a carguy lol
I was smiling all the way throughout the video 🤩
Who knows, maybe we'll get to see him interviewing Hamilton (since he was invited by Ferrari at the Vegas GP)
Hey Marquis! Happy birthday to you man and congratulations!! I can’t think of anyone else who is more deserving of a birthday gift as this than you. You’ve worked hard, you’ve earned it, and you are an inspiration to an “older“ gearhead such as myself.
It's fun to see someone who is excited and thankful for something they really enjoy.
What am I seeing Marques turning into a real combustion car guy , I love it , I think eco friendly internal combustion engine fuel technology is the future so that we can have fast and loud cars with 0 air pollution. The car looks dope man
This might be one, if not my favorite 911 color scheme/spec. Looks so sweet, especially the gloss stripe on the hood🤤. Also love the gloss/satin contrast.
Congrats!
Wow, what a nice first sports car for a guy who just turned 30. I too bought my first Porsche, a 911S, pumpkin orange with black vinyl interior, no AC. Congrats! I hope, unlike so many owners, that you will actually drive the car instead of keeping it garaged and pristine. Porsches are meant to be driven not treated like investments, they aren't rare, not a Lambo or Ferrari.
He said it's his daily.
He's put 1200 miles on it already. I feel like he'll be driving it plenty.
