The Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet is, unquestionably, a "less than." It has less power and torque than the more expensive 911 Turbo S, and it weighs more and has less rigidity than the hardtops. It shouldn't be cool. But here's the thing: this Turbo model is still faster than the old Turbo S, even in a drop-top. Matt and Zack head out into an apocalyptic canyon and put the new Turbo through its paces!
CORRECTION: (Also in video): The press release from Porsche, on which we base our research into new models, had an error. It stated the torque number at 590 lb/ft, where it should have been 553 lb/ft. 590 is the number of the Turbo S model. In a few instances in this video we refer to the 590 number to come to conclusions. Our apologies.
Porsche Cars, North America, provided the vehicle, insurance, and a tank of fuel for this review.

When these two guys get to "cackle level fast" you know they're impressed.
Agreed. The Matt Farah stamp of approval only comes if he cackles. Lol
Does Matt sound like an exuberant supervillain? The car is FAST
Reminds me of an old 'Car and Driver' review of the Buick Grand National... "...any car that can make Jackie Stewart squeal with glee when he toes the throttle..." ;)
Habibi
Zack on that launch is the reason why we are all enthusiasts. Like a kid on Christmas. So awesome!!!
My daughter and I did the inverse on a Porsche customer track day. I stomped on the brakes (yes it was clear) and we enjoyed the sensation of being completely weightless, hanging off the seat belts for several seconds as we went from 200 kmh to 0 in an impressively short distance. Launch control in reverse. I don’t know why testers don’t emphasize more how incredible the braking performance is in these cars.
This car is so fast it turned Zack into the Joker at 10:56
I'm an agent of chaos.
@@zackklapman3569 so glad you have stuck round with smoking tire, Your as much of it as Matt is now.
“Habibi, welcome to Dubizzle!” - Matt Farah
The dust looks so dope as the car flys by, NOW THATS MOBBIN
Guys, you doing this review together is fantastic . Your interactions give us a feel just how amazing the car is.
Different level when they do reviews together.
That launch really made the point how fast these things are now! The dust storm later and antics made this video instantly legendary!
That cars gonna need new air filters before the next guy gets it. 😂
I needed new eyeballs.
“I think this car is so fast, we’ve driven to the future” lmao
Technically every car drives you to the future.. lol
You do the best reviews on cars on the internet.. love normally the way when you are driving and talking you have a small caption of yourself but more importantly the viewers feel they are in the car with you experiencing all that’s to offer .... by the way I’m from the uk and we do have ( Harry’s Garage ) which is also great .... cheers.
I’d love a 911 turbo s. I’m stationed in Germany and have a 14 mile no speed limit w/ barely any traffic both ways trip to work & back. About 5 minutes from the house it’s balls to the wall in my BMW 330i. Rain, shine, it doesn’t matter. Best road ever and no falling apart dirty US roads where anything could be laying on the road.
How much is a 996 Turbo over there?
@@zackklapman3569 you can go to www.autoscout24.com and look at all that are available. Any car actually.
Rename suggestion. The Smoking Tire “double take” instead of having two “one take” intro’s. Do more double take’s. We love Zack with you Matt. Love ya both.
8:45 don't just go around the tree branch twice. Get off the car and get that branch off the road. Those trucks may not be able to stop in time. Please avoid a possible accident.
When Zack gets excited he sounds a bit like Randy Pobst
Just watching top left in cabin view, you can tell how smooth this car is, doesn't look like being filmed on a roller coaster ride with how fast they're going. Even with the top down! Respect to Porsche.
The reason why I would get a Turbo over Turbo S is if I was to keep it long term: 1) No center locks to deal with. 2) Can get the steel rotors replaced for free by FCP Euro. 3.) Can get a tune for a few grand to get 100 hp. Currently looking for a 991.2 Turbo though. I want the physical buttons and a gear lever back.
Yep, I agree, no centerlocks, no ceramic brakes, no PDCC. Also the plain 'Turbo' badge is more in-line with the school Turbos which I like, 'Turbo S' just seems excessive. Below 5,000rpm the power and torque output is identical. The Turbo does have slightly smaller turbos (compressor wheel is 59mm instead of 61mm) than the Turbo S, which can be seen as a benefit, it likely has slightly less turbo lag.
People usually don't like how 911 Turbo's sound, usually associated with vacuum cleaners, but I think they sound really rad!
They sound amazing in person. Just not as loud for passerbys. And I don't mind that, if I'm the only one hearing the amazing engine that's good enough.
@@HiddenWen They do sound amazing in person. I've encountered many. I can't get that whooshing sound out of my mind.
Matt: This is a Supreme vehicle!
Hype Beasts: Gotta cop...
No other TH-cam car Chanel portrays how fast they are going like you guys do. Mother fer is ripppppiiinnnggggggg that car holly crap!
I almost skipped this video. This is one of the best onetakes I’ve seen.
It looks like Matt got smart and finally started including Zack in the expensive car reviews. Beforehand, Matt would (be-knowingly to only those who paid attention to this) only have Zack review cheaper cars/homemade builds, and whenever a nice expensive car came around, Matt would always do them. Matt then hit a plateau on his channel, and since he started including Zack with more stuff, even if it’s just Zack in the passenger seat, his channel has started growing again.
or..... Zack had a day job and was not available to work with me at TST (for very little money), and practiced reviewing whatever cars he felt like because we gave him an open forum to do so. Now, in 2021, he works for TST full time because we have gotten successful enough to pay him a full time salary.
@@TheSmokingTire I understand the pay. Happens with all employees and employers. But there is a hidden underlying issue you aren’t telling us. There always is.
The rooster tail was so badass.. awesome video! Love seeing the two of you enjoying yourselves with this UNIT
That interior is 🔥!!!!
Freaking awesome vid! The combo of the weather, cab and how fast it is just made the best car video in a while :D
Truthfully, if you are “ not made of money” then you are not getting either the Turbo or Turbo S. Most people cannot begin to afford even a base 911. (I understand what Matt is talking about-just conceptualizing this in realistic terms for the general public)
I really like these 2 men reviews. Hope you keep doing them. Besides since you two have such different bodies, it gives a better perspective on interior size.
992 Turbo and Turbo S are nearly perfection.
I have a 997.2 Turbo S and it’s just silly fast. I can’t imagine what this thing is like. Going to skip any thought of a 991 upgrade and save my shekels for a 992 Turbo. What a beast.
Lucky bastard 😂
I have a 997 2008 turbo since new. 6 speed and stupid fast at 480 bhp.
Love the back-and-forth and the jump cuts from the 2-take format.
25 gusting to 40, on Lake Erie we call this day time.
Zac looks like a little kid getting thrown around hahaha. Amazing. Mad how fast they are now. Hahaha loved the excitement in this video. Nicely done.
The likely first buyers of these cars choose the bling options like you see on this car, because they can. They don't care about money, they just want what they want, and can spend whatever to make it personalized and nice. As the second owner of a Turbo, I was flabbergasted to discover that the first owner spec'd out more than $12,000 on yellow stitching, yellow gauges, yellow seat belts, exterior colour matched interior trim, leather seat backs, leather seat back inserts, and more leather on the sills, doors, and dash. The dealer swapped the stock dash hard-mounted 'key' (on/off switch to the left of the wheel, not the one kept in one's pocket), to a matching 'racing yellow' key as a nicety, but from Porsche, it's $127 if you have to buy it lol. Do I think the car looks awesome? Sure do! Would I pay to have all that on a new car? Heck no! But someone did...
That thing is crazy 😎 really enjoined this one BALLPOWDER salesman & Zack thanks!!!
Turbo compressor wheel is smaller on the Turbo vs the S. That plus tune results in lower HP.
I like that y’all have been doing these together instead of separate, videos are great
The sport exhaust is a must have!
Idk if the sport exhaust improves the exhaust by that much
@Peder Hansen definitely
Buddy has a Turbo S with sport exhaust. Wants to replace with aftermarket. Always something better.
Really digging these dual one takes, the back and forth with you too is hilarious
Porsche, the greatest sports car manufacturer on earth.
Holy shit, the sensation of speed seems palpable even from the 📺
The difference from Turbo to Turbo S is the 2mm smaller Turbo (compressing side). I think also the fuel injectors are different, but I am not 100% sure about that.
I like how you warn your cohost and tell him head back before you go 100% in the throttle
You should forget one takes and just build the channel with you and Zack doing all the reviews. It's more entertaining to hear the conversation between you two rather than one of you just talking to the camera.
Wow!! I couldn't have even built something like this on the website with my own imagination, but now I will forever be dreaming of this exact car!
I think the base Turbo is a kind of a hidden bargain (in Porsche terms) if you keep it light on the options and skip PDCC, PCCB and custom leather crap. Then it's a ~25k difference between TT & TTS, and ~40k between similarly light-optioned TT and C4S. An optioned-out C4S, which I see quite a lot, gets price-wise too close to a Turbo.
But most buyers can't resist spending money on options so once they spec a TT, it's so close to the TTS that the TT doesn't make sense anymore. And people want the best of the best which is why the Turbo S outsells base Turbos by A LOT.
Really enjoying these two takes, more of them please! Looked like afterlife out there in the canyons lol.
Porsche on Mars. Already a Legend. Great review guys. You were on one of my local canyon runs and tearing it up as you should. Well done and Keep up the great work!
It was awesome to see the adverse conditions increase the drama of this one take, I Love the 911 turbo, every iteration of it just pushes the boundaries of uncompromised performance. Sure the GT models might be more exciting with their insane styling, exhaust note and N/A engines, and if it was my money I'd pick no depreciation-mobile (GT3 RS) but the turbo is definitely the flagship.
Love that Zack has been in these videos too
zack was able to quit his day job and come to work for TST full time starting in January, so you'll see lots more of him in videos!
So happy for the guy must be an amazing feeling to be able to quit the day job that’s goals for me
Where's the wind deflector? When my rear wind screen is up my hair doesn't even move. You guys - cabs are everything. Best sound, best feel, almost no body roll, love mine!!!
2 takes are the BEST
Awesome review as always. Love these two takes when you can manage them. Zack always brings a great perspective to the table.
That interior though 😍
This is a really nicely specked car, wouldn't mind trying to pick it up in a couple years for around the mid $100s
Love the Two Takes!!!!
That interior is definitely personal preference. Looks like my idea of the inside of Santa's sleigh.
I think this might be the first 911 review during an apocalypse
New title: WE DROVE A PORSCHE TURBO INTO THE APOCALYPSE
@@zackklapman3569 out of an apocalypse
I’ll say it again: two takes are the shiz!
Congratulations guys, y’all beat Elon to Mars 🚀🤣
Love You Matt. That sunglass flying off had me screaming.
Supposedly the Turbo S uses a slightly larger turbine wheel, by ~2mm.
Love the videos dude, been a big fan for a long time, one of my fav channels on TH-cam , keep smashing out the quality work 👍
One of your best videos, the dust made it look quite cool. Both of you at the same time is awesome
The only marketing Porsche needs for the next few years is Matt’s sunnies flying off his head...
What a cool car! Also loving the two takes. All the banter from the podcasts and an awesome car to boot
When a car makes you laugh and rooster tails dust you know it's fast!
Funny that you mentioned the leather stitching is perfect. The first thing I noticed is that it’s NOT perfect, around the Sport Chrono dial. That would definitely bother me after spending $11K for full leather.
Keep doing these Two Takes. It's a great formula.
sound quality pretty great for a convertible video
What a car! Design, details, quality, comfort, fast, track ability, Porsche is on the other level.
TWO TAKES is the best! Also, waiting for off-road
Great vid - especially your reactions to both LCs 🤣!
It was so fun to ride along with you guys! I really got a sense of the top down excitement! Bravo 👏🏼
Not usually one to care about 0-60s and such, as of course there are usually cars faster than whatever you are looking at. THIS is the faster car. I get that the Veyron and Chiron are built for 0-250, but it's just insane that an M5 Comp is .2 seconds slower 0-60 than a Chiron, which itself is .2 seconds slower than a 911. Nuts.
With cars this fast the quarter mile is a better measure and let’s you see the difference in speed, the quarter mile trap speed for the Chiron that car and driver got was insane.
Strawberry shortcake. That’s a perfect description
Two Takes FTW
Matt, sometimes I fear for your safety... that looks too fun !
It's a conversation punctuated with HAHAHAHA whenever someone gets on the throttle :D
Its not often that I hit replay straight away but I did with this on, mega car, mega fun review.
Lol Zack is all critical of convertibles in the podcast but gets in this and is like you know i do kind of like this
Everyone: Wow! The weather in Texas is messed up
California: hold my beer...
OMG! What a great car. I’m guessing the quietness and lack of sport exhaust is due to it being a Euro spec car. I agree with you. I would get the Carrera S Cabrio with extra doodads since I wouldn’t be tracking it...
Agree, go for the Turbo S. For me it must be open top for driver connection (ex biker), I have a 997.2 Turbo S cabriolet. The 992 Turbo S is likely to make me dissatisfied by all counts they moved the game on with this one so will avoid...for now 😊
Two takes are so much more entertaining to watch lol, this is great
That video was entertaining and great fun to watch! ... and that looked quite quick, too
Wow.... crazy. The dust adds a cool sensation of speed.
4:15 ... videos have a hard time conveying speed sometimes, but at this point you see they are absolutely hauling ass
3:49 Rest in peace sunglasses.
That spec is amazing, it would look even better on a 992 Turbo S Coupe in carmine red.
Love the two-up one takes.
Awesome video. Ihr habt richtig Spaß gehabt und das hat man gesehen 🤟🏼
I dig that road, we got one like that here in Salt Lake
Those numbers are lunacy 🤣😳
Zach was so scared. That car is a monster.
Nice review. I do agree Ferrari has a amazing range of products now. The Spyder cars are the only ones not matching Porsche and the competition.
I wonder why people spent 30K more to get a "S" when they cannot even use 70% power of a "Turbo". If I were to configure a Porsche, I will stick with Turbo
What's nuts is at time of filming the 911 was the quickest platform EVER
Porsche makes the best car!
idk Matt. I think I would take the crazy leather color. I love anything outside of the norm when it comes to interior colors, miss me with the black and the stone/beige
3:46 surprised no one mentioned how the launch made matts glasses fly
If I had a few cars, a convertible Turbo or TurboS would be a must.
Christ that's fast.
You guys could make at least ten different amazing gifs from this video.
