First of all, Shmee's whole video style is different. Shmee's videos are more vlogs than reviews. Second of all, Shmee has been on youtube for over a decade (consistently) and you're comparing them? Janko Lind made a very good review and there is no need for comparison. Especially if you don't know who to compare him with.
Wow, this is just the second review of regular 911 Turbo that I’ve seen. All youtube channels focused on the S version only, thanks so much, man. I still think 911 S will do the trick for me.
Well, they're basically the same car. They drive the same, behave the same, look the same. The only difference is that extra 70hp, a bit more torque and pccb as standard, but to be honest ceramic brakes for everyday use are a big mistake
@@ozelususWhy do you think PCCB’s are not for daily use? I have seen some other people who think PCCB’s are not for people who go to the track often! because they are so expensive to replace since they don’t last much longer on track use than iron brakes, yet iron brakes are much cheaper to replace. My own believe is that PCCB’s ultimate best use is for daily used cars in extra hot areas of this planet where brakes don’t have much time to cool off.
@@aaoaaa Not exactly. Ceramic brakes last a lot longer. Ceramic shields will last even 300 000 km while regular ones only 60 000. They're much more durable and resistant to heat, however they're simply much less comfortable - they're squeaky, make a lot of sounds, they need to be warmed up to have full potential and during a rainy day on express route they're terrible. If you drive for a longer time without braking on a rainy day, they get wet and cold and they don't break! You need to slam them really hard to get rid of the water film and give them enough heat to work properly. It's something that can be a big surprise. I was surprised like that a couple of times.
Dear Janko, thanks for mentioning the VW7 or VW4 glass option! As a new 911 driver I started with the Carrera T because I wanted to drive a manual sports car, I didn't realize how much noise the tires and the wind create in the cabin. I understand that it is important for a sports car to be lightweight but the noise is unbearable when you do long distance driving. I live in the Netherlands where it is difficult to find exciting roads to drive, the country is flat as a pancake and the roads are busy. I always have to go to higher ground or go north to find the challenging roads. I ended up sound insulating the T, I had the doors, the backpanels and the floor insulated. This greatly improved my driving pleasure. Recently I realized that the T was not the right 911 for me, I wanted more comfort. I decided to buy a 992 4S instead. Just before ordering the car I saw your review of the manual vs the PDK, in it you mentioned the noise insulated glass for the first time. At the moment there is a production stop on the insulated glass, in the Netherlands anyways. It will not be available until (perhaps) the 2022 production run. I was very disappointed because I will not buy a car without it anymore. Luckily I have found a car last week with the lightweight and noise insulated privacy glass! It now ticks all the boxes. I will be driving it for the fist time on April 2nd! Hurray! Can't wait! Thank you for your honest reviews and enthousiasm! It is very refreshing to see. Keep it real and keep on going! Greetz, Cliff
Thanks, C.T., the option is VW4 nothing else. I apologize for my mistake in this video. Congratulations on your car, if I understand you correctly you manage to find a 992 with VW4. It makes a huge difference. It is not always easy to buy your first Porsche. They look the same but act so differently. I've met many GT3 and GT4 owners regretting their purchase. I believe you will enjoy and appreciate your 992. Good luck. If you are not already, please consider subscribing to my channel.
@@JankoLind Goodmorning Janko, the VW4 glass is the glass without the tinted privacy glass. Option VW7 is the same glass with the tinted privacy glass. Both are laminated. You understand me correctly, I have bought an 992 4S with the VW7 glass. As 50+ a little comfort goes a long way. Thanks again!
What a pleasure to finally have a review from a guy who gets it. My first ride in a Porsche was a brand new 75 Turbo. The first thing that hit me was the luxury and comfort. That this was in such a high performance car only made it the more impressive. Everyone focusing on performance misses this, the very essence of Turbo. The elevator does not go to the top. Beautiful.
@@JankoLind 79 SC. And planning on 992C4S this summer. But the first time I ever was in any Porsche was a brand new 75 Turbo. I was 18. We went 135. On B roads. Crazy good car for 1975.
@@JankoLind The owner drove it year round. His driveway sloped down to the garage. In winter he would back the car in. There were ruts in the concrete from the studded tires doing launches to get through the snow. Plywood on the wall behind to protect the sheetrock from getting blasted as the sparks and rocks go flying! The ruts were created by his 69S, but when winter came he did the same with the Turbo! True story!
I’m a recent subscriber and found your reviews on the spyder insightful and thought provoking. So much so i switched my configuration from a gentian blue with 18 way comfort seats and burmester to a GT silver with LWBS (Imitation is a sincerest form of flattery) for November delivery. Your analysis is thorough and has value which I rare in todays world. Your analysis of the turbo is spot on. Keep up the great work and hopefully the gods at google will work out why you only have 14k subscribers and put you on a fast track to a wider audience which you are fully deserving of. I rarely make any comments on a public forum but this is an exception.
Thank you for contributing to our community and BIG thanks for your subscription, welcome 🙏. GT Silver is a classic color, not wrong at all. VW4 light wight windows is a MUST HAVE if you pay for the Burmester. Enjoy your new car and thank you for the time you spend on my channel, I might have very few subscribers but they are the best 😊
Yeah I think they are many really good interior options. Black is classic. I have seen Slate/Chalk, Bordeaux with Chalk stitching, Black/Mojave Tan (like on this one) and they all look really amazing.
I just took delivery of my Gentian Blue 2023 4S (model delete) and it is honestly as fast a street car, daily driver, as I will ever need. 0 to 60 in 3.2 with no ECU tune yet, I love the GT2 and GT3 but both are more uncomfortable and strictly track cars for me - to keep my license and out of jail. This review is hilariously funny but incredibly perceptive as well!!! Brilliant reviewer 😂
I never knew the Swedish had such a good sense of humour! On a serious note such a compelling video. Very mature and sensible point of view in how to justify the existence of the Turbo. Happens all the time in the motorbike industry. Ppl want to own the top spec when they are missing out on a bargain next shelf down model. It will still out perform the mere mortal riding it.
Thanks, Markmcc21, the 992 Turbo is such a perfect car I'm not sure the "S" model is needed. Thanks for subscribing to my channel and welcome to our community.
Loved the kind hammering of the British people and their complains 😂 Question, how come the lightweight glass provides more noise isolation than thicker glass? I thought it will be the opposite. Any details?
Thanks for your refreshingly different videos. How many repeats of videos showing launched Turbos must we endure? Your views and insights on real life with the 992 models is much more valuable than recounting specs and blasting thru turns and corners on some racetrack. I’m very grateful for your insistence on specifying lightweight and sound insulating glass. The noise from the tires rolling over the pavement is definitely one I can do without, especially if it brings the Burmester sound system to life. Tomorrow I’ll be on to the salesman to add that option to my order. Called two friends today and forwarded your videos to them to check their orders, too. 🤗👍👍👍👍👍
@@JankoLind Thanks, Janko. Just yesterday I got an appointment for mid February for a Sonderwunsch Beratung at the Exclusive Manufaktur department in Zuffenhausens to tweak the specifications of my order, and hopefully finally select the right color. I took your advice regarding option VW4 and added it a couple of weeks ago. Any other suggestions from your would be most welcome!
@@HLife719 You need to make the car yours, be sure how you are going to use the car and write down scenarios. - Going to work - Sunday drive with my child - Trackway ones a year -etc Then make sure you understand your experience. For me a 911 Turbo is all about being a gentleman and not a sports-freak. A 911 turbo should not be loud but elegant in my opinion.
Janko, I subscribed a few days ago to your channel and over the weekend watched many of your video reviews. I am so impressed with your enthusiasm and detail. Keep up the work you do on these reviews. We love them.
A Turbo branded 911 is often a dream car purchase for a life long enthusiast. If they have the means to buy then I propose that the purchase goes well beyond a logical and reasonable decision. There is a large amount of emotion in that purchase. Why cut that dream off at just "Turbo"? Go all the way to Turbo S, not for 2 tenths of a second but for the feeling that comes with getting into the top dog Turbo. If you were not buying on emotion to begin with then you would be shopping a Carrera 4S. You jump to Turbo for something intangible as well as tangible, you may as well jump in all the way.
Thanks for contributing to our community hockeymann88, I understand your point but I disagree. The 911 Turbo is another species. Driving a 911 Turbo regardless of the power is another ride. Therefore you don't buy a Turbo for its performance figures but rather for the concept, and for that, you don't need 700 hp.
thank you again for a great review Janko. I look forward to the next one. Every time I am out in my red Spyder, I think back to your review of the red Spyder and how excited you were. I hold you responsible for convincing me to get the greatest car ever
I'm British and it amused me but because I'm from here I've never considered it from the viewpoint of anyone from elsewhere - thinking about that I can see why it might get wry smiles :) However putting my 'serious head' on for a second lets remember a Brit journalist or even youtuber has to comment from a British standpoint and say what works or doesn't on our roads. It's a catch 22 tbh as our b roads are amazing in their variety and twistiness but generally are also narrow and bumpy. It also happens that it was an often used phrase in written UK automotive journalism (ie solely aimed at Brits) well before the introduction of online stuff so it makes sense its still a point that's got value here. I also suspect one of the reasons they say it so much is that when a car is sorted enough to flow down an average Brit B Road then it generally has an extremely well sorted chassis and will work everywhere.
I agree totally about the red calipers, on my 2020 Panamera turbo I had the calipers painted silver grey, like on the non turbo models, it is much more beautiful now.
On behalf of UK drivers: Plenty of us out there have no problem with a firmer ride, but the state of our B-roads is very different to the lovely surfaces enjoyed elsewhere. We need something that can cope with surfaces that are pitted and potholed. Without a bit of compliance the car will be thrown off the road. Thank the lord for adaptive dampers.
Hi Ian, Thank you for contributing to our community. I understand the precarious situation UK drivers are facing. I'm sorry if you or your fellow UK citizens are offended by my humor/comments. I hope we all sense the irony. If you are not, please consider subscribing.
I've just bought a 992 Turbo and having never had a turbo 911 this is an amazing car to say the least. I also have a 991.2 GT3 and I thought they'd be the same or very similar......the GT3 is a road going race car and the turbo is a GT cruiser. The way you summed up the Turbo to the turbo S made so much sense and I'm glad to have the turbo. Great video and absolutely spot on jango.
Thank you a lot Mr. Lind! After your video I ordered the 911 992 turbo with the isolated glass and compared it last week with a borrowed 992 turbo S at the „Hockenheimring“ with the Sports_Exhaust_System. I must have to say that my car sounds much better inside (and I don‘t have the Sports-Exhaust). I owned the 930 turbo, the 964 turbo, the 993 turbo with WLS 2 and 450HP and the 996 turbo before, when they were the actual models. There were never a turbo S (before 993 and apart from Turbo S Leichtbau) or a Sports_Exhaust_System. This is just decadent and a marceting-strategy. You can‘t feel any difference between the turbo and turbo S and the Sports_Exhaust_System looks just horrible. It seems to be taken from the Carrera with this massive plastic cover. The normal Quad_Pipes help identifying the turbo and still sound great, much more honest music in my ears. You’re totally right: The 911 Turbo S is only taken by people who never owned a Porsche before. Until 3 moths ago, there was a long pause and I’ve been driven Amg for this time, but now I returned to my roots. I’m very glad to see that you love Porsche too. Your videos are just fantastic. Thank you and please stay healthy. Greetings from Germany to Sweden🇩🇪🇸🇪
Congratulations to your 992 Turbo. One day I will own one myself. just love how they managed to fit both the rebel and the queen in one car. Take care and if you are not already please consider subscribing.
@@JankoLind Thank you for your answer! Yes, all Porsches are beautiful and it is just amazing that these cars are faster than many competitors with „less“ horsepower. This is engineering. I hope all your dreams of cars become true in the future. I love your Carrera S and of course I subscribed this fantastic channel. I wish you all the best.
It’s good to read about your experience. I’m wondering if there’s a difference between them when it comes to sound isolation. Have you noticed anything between the Turbo and Turbo S?
@@David-mg8zu Yes, personally, I noticed a difference between the two configurations of the glass because some wind/ rolling noises are filtered out but it wasn’t such significant that everyone immediately register it, maybe it was only my subjective experience. Between the two engine configurations I haven’t noticed any difference. I had the possibility to speak with Walther Rhörl who always had and actually has the “normal Turbo” and said that the engine response of the Turbo is better due to the smaller chargers and feeling the power differences is in reality very difficult if even impossible for a normal, sporty driver👍🏻
great review! I've already watched so many on the 992 turbo and still watched this entire view. Very entertaining and loved the comment on the type of person that owns a turbo s 🤣
I'm tired of blokes complaining about how small the back seat is. It's because of these wussies the 911 ballooned to this size. Just buy an SUV instead of trying to ruin the size of what once was a perfect sportscar!
I agree but I don't want my kid to spend 5-7 hours in the back. Therefore a Cayenne is much mor suited. IF you are not already, please consider subscribing.
Very thoughtful take on the car and why the “S” really isn’t needed if your not tracking it. Most reviewers assume you are racing an enthusiast car on the track; which is very unlikely. New subscriber here.
Hi David, Sorry if I have offended you or your fellow UK citizens. I hope everybody sense the ironi and smiles. Thanks for continuing to contribute to our community and the time you spend on my channel.
So I test drove a 992 turbo today. And my facial expressions were very similar to janko’s reaction to when he accelerates. I thought he was being goofy and over reacting. Nope. This car is completely ridiculous, and I want one!
Porsche Is the best brand, no matter what. Quality, Sensitivity, Feeling to drive, The connection between the driver and the car are amazing. The Sports Porsches are like a lving thing, more or less, you talk to the car and it understands you. I do not know how Porsche engineers do it, but they just do it. Amazing brand, no question about it. I speak of my own experience and feelings of the Porsche brand.
i died after that intro lol! I think the (swedish?) at the end was saying "a 911 turbo is a good winter car!" at least that's what i'll tell the missus
By the time you add the basic options I would say are required for a 580 bhp car (and that are included in the S), you end up very close to the price of the Turbo S....but with 70 bhp less.
I just found your channel through this video today Janko, and your infectious enthusiasm grabbed me from the start. I also love your take on (almost all) whiny British reviewers and their never-ending moans about bumpy roads. Here’s an idea UK, don’t drive on them if they’re so bad! 😂 Anyway, I’ve now subscribed and looking forward to more content from you - all the best with your channel!
Same here. I think he misses the point because if you can spend $200K on a car, you can spend $230K and most will wonder why you didn't buy the top dog. There is a lot of personal satisfaction to own the best a manufacturer has to offer.
@@emericrobert8203 Agreed. Even the regular turbo is well in the realm of "too fast to ever be fully utilized on roads". And with a few options, it can be almost as expensive as a Turbo S. Why not just spend the extra money and get the best of the best.
Porsche does it again. coming up with a car that is WAY too much car for MOST drivers, then puts on many sets of "training wheels" to keep their clients alive... might as well find an old 912 - which is all you REALLY need.
@@emericrobert8203 not necessarily mate. Im saving for a 911 turbo. An extra 30k to me isn't that easily found compared to say someone who's earning 200k a year. What I end up buying is personal choice but just cos u have a lambo doesnt mean ur mansion rich with surplus money
Janko, i believe this one and an autralian video are the only ones about the Turbo, the rest is all about the Turbo S.... there is not a single comparison between these two 992 cars. My bet is that the difference in performance is so little, it would be too inconvenient for Porsche and for Turbo S owners to justify the premium, don't you think? And as you explained really well, I'm a petrolhead but not a racing driver, the logical car for me, would be the Turbo rather than a GT3 Touring. And additionally, I'm addicted more to torque than to hi revs. As an M3 e92 manual owner, I enjoy driving much more my GLC43 AMG than my M3. If, by any chance you get the possibility to test and compare a Turbo vs the Turbo S of the 992 generation, I think you will make an interesting point... cheers from Colombia!
Hi Jay, owners of the 911 Turbo do understand my statement better. You don't get it during a short drive. If you are not already, please consider subscribing.
You're fortunate us British can laugh at ourselves.. but you already knew that.. Loved it Janko! fcuk sensitivity!! You come across as the kind of guy you could easily sit with in a bar and talk cars until the cows come home... cheers!
I did think 100 times if I should publish it and you are right, the British people I know could easily laugh at themselves. Regardless it was not an easy decision. It has a big scoop of irony and some real fact. I have not problem talking with you over a bear, but we might end up only talking cars...
@@JankoLind Forgot to say... I changed my mind on the manual 992 following your live review.. and ordered the Turbo last week. Your review is the ONLY proper review of the regular Turbo on the net.. apart from Autogefuhl.. which was not quite as informative and lacking in any kind of emotion..
Also, issue with new cars as you mentioned. To many buttons to push, to get ready for full throttle b-roads, but thats the price to pay for both comfort and stiffness available in the same car.
Turbo S gang por vida. also I've never heard of a rock damaging PCCB, though I'm sure it happens but it's exceeding rare and I never have to wash my wheels
😂 I love the dig at the nagging Brits. And great to hear the Swedish accent English once again after a couple of years living there. Those Swedish winters are brutal! Super impressive how the 911 Turbo seems to gobble up the ice and just rockets on.
What a beautiful colour - looks so good against the snow and blue sky. The Turbo is definitely the sweet spot in terms of bang for buck! Who gives an elk poop for 0.1s Great sense in your video - car and father philosophy.

Welcome to our community claytonfarlow76, I hope you have found my earlier videos, perhaps not all have the same quality as the new ones. I learn over time.
That’s the best 911 review, loved the British B roads, yes they are crap, but you’ve misunderstood it’s not that they are bumpy it’s the holes like land mines that rip wheels off that’s the problem. That blue and beige is just beautiful, yes in the snow -17, should we drive like a good citizen or like the devil stole it, loved it subscribed!!!!! Ps can I have the car when you have finished with it?
Hi Simon, I have the cars for minimum 1 week before the review. Its not a testdrive, it is a review. In addition I've own Porsches since I was 19 years old.
@@JankoLind also liked the comments about British highly paid TH-camrs, I quickly got fed up with them all getting same car, similar comments, the only one I really like is Harry’s garage because like you he obviously has had the car a while and worked out what he, the owner would want from everyday use. Your comment on not getting carbon brakes and staying away from centre lock is real world use not headline grabbing comments. Would have liked to know about real world fuel consumption, try asking about that and people look at you as if you are mad, you drive flat out everywhere, only if you are wealthy and view them as throw away items, I’m looking at you Middle East! Keep up the good work, I’ve subscribed so I can go look at other Porsches
As hyper fast as the new Turbo is, I can’t help but think how overkill it is now. The C2S and C4S are already seriously fast, and with a basic tune are in supercar league.
Very nice review buddy! You gained a new Subscriber :)! As an improvement (as you may already noticed): the mic was often rubbing against your jacket when you sat in the car , which made some disturbing noice
Welcome to our community. YES, I was angry when I realized my mic rubbed against my jacket. There is several clips that were not published because of this. But some I could not take away and could not be replaced. I'm sorry for messing with your ears but I needed to get the story going. If you don't know I'm a one-man show and this is a good example of the difficulties I'm facing producing.
Hi Janko, thanks for the great video. I wish you could talk a little more about if theres much turbo lag in comfort mode driven at lower revs (the way i guess it will mostly be used) though, am very curious about that. Nobody else in other reviews even talks about it and I am thinking there must be significant lag because of the ridiculous power output but am not sure. But really, great video nonetheless and and thanks for making it! It's obvious you are a true enthusiast
Thanks for the comment, it is no Turbo lag, the entire car is set to sleep in "normal" driving. As mention, you always need to swaths on drive mode, etc to get all power. If the question is if the care is hard to handle, not linear acceleration, in normal traffic then the answer is NO. It is great to drive in cities.
I only saw this video for the first time now. A Janko production in top-form. Yes, we know you quit your regular productions but please, if you have not, consider to publish some insightful, short content only for fun 😉.
Enjoying Janko from the UK as ever! Yep we do moan about the B roads. The other factor is the dentistry - we like to keep our fillings. 🥴 What's the Swedish bit at the end all about?

@@JankoLind wow, it took me until I was 36. That's probably why you're in a nice new 992 plus a Boxster Spyder (plus plus plus) and I still have my now ancient car :D Congratulations!
Janko, love the review and the honest opinion on the regular turbo. A few questions. What is it that you’re saying at the end of this video in Swedish? It’s not captioned in English Can the PCCB brakes get damaged by a stone in between the calliper and the brake rotor? I wanted to spec a new car with pccb brakes to eliminate the brake dust
@janko Lind great review of the Turbo 👍🏽. Couldn’t agree with you more. Btw your vids are top notch; frankly your sub counts should be blowing up on YT! Cheers mate!
Im a Brit and I found your take on British footballers hilarious. What made it even funnier was the fact that most of the players now are not even British 👍
Thanks, Mark, and your channel (if possible) gets better and better for each episode. Sad that you are selling one of your 997 GT3 RS 4.0. I do understand. Take care, and I appreciate that our life has come across.
I would loose my licence if I drove like you in Australia. For this reason I have a Turbo cabrio to better appreciate the sensation of speed. Love your irreverence and humourJanko. PS Also love Swedish television drama.
Ohh Swedish drama is good Werner, Turbo? Base Carrera would be enough to loose your driving licence, but you would not believe me when I say; the speeds I’m driving in producing videos is not losing your license speed. If you are not already please consider subscribing
the PASM S (-10) makes the car look MUCH better and dose not effect the ride comfort. But it increases the drivning performance in corners but not as much as the Öhlins Road and Track, therefore, buy without and add the Öhlins.
Do not think the UK roads are that bad, maybe they are not as good as they were decades ago. I go back to The UK usually once a year, luckily my parents live on the North Welsh coast and so I can see what they mean by great B roads.
Hi Janko, amazing 992 turbo review , it is gentian blue , correct ?, the most detailed one for prospective turbo buyers. Friend deciding between 992 base carerra cab or the turbo cab for weekend fun no track duty , what would you recommend ?
I'm not a big fan of the 911 Turbo cabriolet, It kind of remove some aspects of the 911 Turbo concept. As I said in the video, you can not compare the 911 Turbo with other 911.
Excellent and a fun review Janko! I was looking for the Turbo specific reviews (non s) all over the internet and I could barely find any proper ones. Thanks for the great work and I appreciate your enthusiasm as always. Also, I am wondering if this Turbo you tested had the optional Sports PASM (10 mm lowered) or was it with the standard suspension. If so which Suspension would you recommend on the Turbo? I purchased a 2021 Carrera S and am really not fully satisfied as I am bored with the car under 2000 RPM as it feels boring, I am wondering if the Turbo is really good under 2000 RPM in comparison? I would really like to swap my Carrera S to a turbo, what would you recommend?

First of all, Shmee's whole video style is different. Shmee's videos are more vlogs than reviews. Second of all, Shmee has been on youtube for over a decade (consistently) and you're comparing them? Janko Lind made a very good review and there is no need for comparison. Especially if you don't know who to compare him with.
@@strub11 Janko is real world informative and only occasionally cringe inducing. Shmee is constantly cringeworthy, and intermittently rage inducing
Wow, this is just the second review of regular 911 Turbo that I’ve seen. All youtube channels focused on the S version only, thanks so much, man. I still think 911 S will do the trick for me.
Well, they're basically the same car. They drive the same, behave the same, look the same. The only difference is that extra 70hp, a bit more torque and pccb as standard, but to be honest ceramic brakes for everyday use are a big mistake
@@ozelususWhy do you think PCCB’s are not for daily use? I have seen some other people who think PCCB’s are not for people who go to the track often! because they are so expensive to replace since they don’t last much longer on track use than iron brakes, yet iron brakes are much cheaper to replace.
My own believe is that PCCB’s ultimate best use is for daily used cars in extra hot areas of this planet where brakes don’t have much time to cool off.
@@aaoaaa
Not exactly. Ceramic brakes last a lot longer. Ceramic shields will last even 300 000 km while regular ones only 60 000. They're much more durable and resistant to heat, however they're simply much less comfortable - they're squeaky, make a lot of sounds, they need to be warmed up to have full potential and during a rainy day on express route they're terrible. If you drive for a longer time without braking on a rainy day, they get wet and cold and they don't break! You need to slam them really hard to get rid of the water film and give them enough heat to work properly. It's something that can be a big surprise. I was surprised like that a couple of times.
Dear Janko, thanks for mentioning the VW7 or VW4 glass option! As a new 911 driver I started with the Carrera T because I wanted to drive a manual sports car, I didn't realize how much noise the tires and the wind create in the cabin. I understand that it is important for a sports car to be lightweight but the noise is unbearable when you do long distance driving. I live in the Netherlands where it is difficult to find exciting roads to drive, the country is flat as a pancake and the roads are busy. I always have to go to higher ground or go north to find the challenging roads.
I ended up sound insulating the T, I had the doors, the backpanels and the floor insulated. This greatly improved my driving pleasure.
Recently I realized that the T was not the right 911 for me, I wanted more comfort. I decided to buy a 992 4S instead. Just before ordering the car I saw your review of the manual vs the PDK, in it you mentioned the noise insulated glass for the first time. At the moment there is a production stop on the insulated glass, in the Netherlands anyways. It will not be available until (perhaps) the 2022 production run. I was very disappointed because I will not buy a car without it anymore.
Luckily I have found a car last week with the lightweight and noise insulated privacy glass! It now ticks all the boxes. I will be driving it for the fist time on April 2nd! Hurray! Can't wait! Thank you for your honest reviews and enthousiasm! It is very refreshing to see. Keep it real and keep on going! Greetz, Cliff
Thanks, C.T., the option is VW4 nothing else. I apologize for my mistake in this video. Congratulations on your car, if I understand you correctly you manage to find a 992 with VW4. It makes a huge difference. It is not always easy to buy your first Porsche. They look the same but act so differently. I've met many GT3 and GT4 owners regretting their purchase. I believe you will enjoy and appreciate your 992. Good luck. If you are not already, please consider subscribing to my channel.
@@JankoLind Goodmorning Janko, the VW4 glass is the glass without the tinted privacy glass. Option VW7 is the same glass with the tinted privacy glass. Both are laminated. You understand me correctly, I have bought an 992 4S with the VW7 glass. As 50+ a little comfort goes a long way. Thanks again!
@@c.t.eshuis7773 Sorry did not know the code for the tinted version, thanks for enlightening me. Take care.
@c.t.eshuis7773, How did you find the VW7 glass after taking delivery of your car? Did you have to sound insulate it like your old one?
Janko! You nailed the difference between S and non S owners! You’re the best!
Thanks, perhaps I was a bit to hard on the S drivers.
What a pleasure to finally have a review from a guy who gets it. My first ride in a Porsche was a brand new 75 Turbo. The first thing that hit me was the luxury and comfort. That this was in such a high performance car only made it the more impressive. Everyone focusing on performance misses this, the very essence of Turbo. The elevator does not go to the top. Beautiful.
Hi Charles, I believe we are on the same page. Sound like you have owned a 911 Turbo.
@@JankoLind 79 SC. And planning on 992C4S this summer. But the first time I ever was in any Porsche was a brand new 75 Turbo. I was 18. We went 135. On B roads. Crazy good car for 1975.
@@charlesmiller6281 What a first Porsche experience, congratulations...
@@JankoLind The owner drove it year round. His driveway sloped down to the garage. In winter he would back the car in. There were ruts in the concrete from the studded tires doing launches to get through the snow. Plywood on the wall behind to protect the sheetrock from getting blasted as the sparks and rocks go flying! The ruts were created by his 69S, but when winter came he did the same with the Turbo! True story!
I’m a recent subscriber and found your reviews on the spyder insightful and thought provoking. So much so i switched my configuration from a gentian blue with 18 way comfort seats and burmester to a GT silver with LWBS (Imitation is a sincerest form of flattery) for November delivery. Your analysis is thorough and has value which I rare in todays world. Your analysis of the turbo is spot on. Keep up the great work and hopefully the gods at google will work out why you only have 14k subscribers and put you on a fast track to a wider audience which you are fully deserving of. I rarely make any comments on a public forum but this is an exception.
Thank you for contributing to our community and BIG thanks for your subscription, welcome 🙏.
GT Silver is a classic color, not wrong at all. VW4 light wight windows is a MUST HAVE if you pay for the Burmester. Enjoy your new car and thank you for the time you spend on my channel, I might have very few subscribers but they are the best 😊
So refreshing to see a Porsche with a bit of colour on the inside, instead of black. The blue on the outside also looks amazing by the way.
On a Turbo I believe it takes the car to a new level. I was thinking white with red interior.
Yeah I think they are many really good interior options. Black is classic. I have seen Slate/Chalk, Bordeaux with Chalk stitching, Black/Mojave Tan (like on this one) and they all look really amazing.
I think you forgot to mention that Turbo S only has the PDCC chassis which is super stiff. Plus the carbon brakes only make sense on track.
For me too the turbo is more suited to daily drive in all conditions dump on snow too.
The 911 turbo is a uniq car, not sure there is anything els on the market.
I just took delivery of my Gentian Blue 2023 4S (model delete) and it is honestly as fast a street car, daily driver, as I will ever need. 0 to 60 in 3.2 with no ECU tune yet, I love the GT2 and GT3 but both are more uncomfortable and strictly track cars for me - to keep my license and out of jail. This review is hilariously funny but incredibly perceptive as well!!! Brilliant reviewer 😂
This is by far the review with the best jokes, still laughin about ‘exclusive manufacture’ plastic. Great job Janko!
Thanks Radja, happy that you liked the video. Please take care.
starting with the very first one about an electric car!
I never knew the Swedish had such a good sense of humour! On a serious note such a compelling video. Very mature and sensible point of view in how to justify the existence of the Turbo. Happens all the time in the motorbike industry. Ppl want to own the top spec when they are missing out on a bargain next shelf down model. It will still out perform the mere mortal riding it.
Thanks, Markmcc21, the 992 Turbo is such a perfect car I'm not sure the "S" model is needed. Thanks for subscribing to my channel and welcome to our community.
Loved the kind hammering of the British people and their complains 😂 Question, how come the lightweight glass provides more noise isolation than thicker glass? I thought it will be the opposite. Any details?
The glass is thicker and belive it or not lighter.
Loved the comment "911 Turbo is the one the rich people buy" . Absolutely spot on 1000% agree.

Thanks for your refreshingly different videos. How many repeats of videos showing launched Turbos must we endure? Your views and insights on real life with the 992 models is much more valuable than recounting specs and blasting thru turns and corners on some racetrack. I’m very grateful for your insistence on specifying lightweight and sound insulating glass. The noise from the tires rolling over the pavement is definitely one I can do without, especially if it brings the Burmester sound system to life. Tomorrow I’ll be on to the salesman to add that option to my order. Called two friends today and forwarded your videos to them to check their orders, too. 🤗👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks and a big congratulation to your car. the option VW4 I very important :-)
@@JankoLind Thanks, Janko. Just yesterday I got an appointment for mid February for a Sonderwunsch Beratung at the Exclusive Manufaktur department in Zuffenhausens to tweak the specifications of my order, and hopefully finally select the right color. I took your advice regarding option VW4 and added it a couple of weeks ago. Any other suggestions from your would be most welcome!
@@HLife719 You need to make the car yours, be sure how you are going to use the car and write down scenarios.
- Going to work
- Sunday drive with my child
- Trackway ones a year
-etc
Then make sure you understand your experience. For me a 911 Turbo is all about being a gentleman and not a sports-freak. A 911 turbo should not be loud but elegant in my opinion.

Thanks Timo...
Janko, I subscribed a few days ago to your channel and over the weekend watched many of your video reviews. I am so impressed with your enthusiasm and detail. Keep up the work you do on these reviews. We love them.
Welcome to our community Sola, and thank you for the time you spend on my channel. More reviews to come :-)
A Turbo branded 911 is often a dream car purchase for a life long enthusiast. If they have the means to buy then I propose that the purchase goes well beyond a logical and reasonable decision. There is a large amount of emotion in that purchase. Why cut that dream off at just "Turbo"? Go all the way to Turbo S, not for 2 tenths of a second but for the feeling that comes with getting into the top dog Turbo. If you were not buying on emotion to begin with then you would be shopping a Carrera 4S. You jump to Turbo for something intangible as well as tangible, you may as well jump in all the way.
Thanks for contributing to our community hockeymann88, I understand your point but I disagree. The 911 Turbo is another species. Driving a 911 Turbo regardless of the power is another ride. Therefore you don't buy a Turbo for its performance figures but rather for the concept, and for that, you don't need 700 hp.
thank you again for a great review Janko. I look forward to the next one. Every time I am out in my red Spyder, I think back to your review of the red Spyder and how excited you were. I hold you responsible for convincing me to get the greatest car ever
It sure is a beautiful car Brad and congratulations to yours. If you are not already, please consider subscribing.
Calling out the UK was absolutely priceless 😂
Thanks smiles, perhaps too much?
@@JankoLind Just a little ;-) That apart - great video (FYI I am a long-term subscriber [from the UK] and have watched and enjoyed all your videos).
I think someone had to finally say it. 👍🏻
@@JankoLind no. u right.
I'm British and it amused me but because I'm from here I've never considered it from the viewpoint of anyone from elsewhere - thinking about that I can see why it might get wry smiles :)
However putting my 'serious head' on for a second lets remember a Brit journalist or even youtuber has to comment from a British standpoint and say what works or doesn't on our roads.
It's a catch 22 tbh as our b roads are amazing in their variety and twistiness but generally are also narrow and bumpy.
It also happens that it was an often used phrase in written UK automotive journalism (ie solely aimed at Brits) well before the introduction of online stuff so it makes sense its still a point that's got value here.
I also suspect one of the reasons they say it so much is that when a car is sorted enough to flow down an average Brit B Road then it generally has an extremely well sorted chassis and will work everywhere.
I agree totally about the red calipers, on my 2020 Panamera turbo I had the calipers painted silver grey, like on the non turbo models, it is much more beautiful now.
Good choice 👍 to paint them silver grey.
On behalf of UK drivers: Plenty of us out there have no problem with a firmer ride, but the state of our B-roads is very different to the lovely surfaces enjoyed elsewhere. We need something that can cope with surfaces that are pitted and potholed. Without a bit of compliance the car will be thrown off the road. Thank the lord for adaptive dampers.
Hi Ian, Thank you for contributing to our community. I understand the precarious situation UK drivers are facing. I'm sorry if you or your fellow UK citizens are offended by my humor/comments. I hope we all sense the irony. If you are not, please consider subscribing.
I've just bought a 992 Turbo and having never had a turbo 911 this is an amazing car to say the least. I also have a 991.2 GT3 and I thought they'd be the same or very similar......the GT3 is a road going race car and the turbo is a GT cruiser. The way you summed up the Turbo to the turbo S made so much sense and I'm glad to have the turbo. Great video and absolutely spot on jango.
Great review! And i am a proud M3 and M4 owner. Never had a Porsche but you are pushing me towards the experience of having a 991 or 992!
Start with a 991 and move forward later 😁 If you are not already please subscribe.
@@JankoLind I am a long term subscriber! Never miss a video!
Thank you a lot Mr. Lind! After your video I ordered the 911 992 turbo with the isolated glass and compared it last week with a borrowed 992 turbo S at the „Hockenheimring“ with the Sports_Exhaust_System. I must have to say that my car sounds much better inside (and I don‘t have the Sports-Exhaust). I owned the 930 turbo, the 964 turbo, the 993 turbo with WLS 2 and 450HP and the 996 turbo before, when they were the actual models. There were never a turbo S (before 993 and apart from Turbo S Leichtbau) or a Sports_Exhaust_System. This is just decadent and a marceting-strategy. You can‘t feel any difference between the turbo and turbo S and the Sports_Exhaust_System looks just horrible. It seems to be taken from the Carrera with this massive plastic cover. The normal Quad_Pipes help identifying the turbo and still sound great, much more honest music in my ears. You’re totally right: The 911 Turbo S is only taken by people who never owned a Porsche before. Until 3 moths ago, there was a long pause and I’ve been driven Amg for this time, but now I returned to my roots. I’m very glad to see that you love Porsche too. Your videos are just fantastic. Thank you and please stay healthy. Greetings from Germany to Sweden🇩🇪🇸🇪
Congratulations to your 992 Turbo. One day I will own one myself. just love how they managed to fit both the rebel and the queen in one car. Take care and if you are not already please consider subscribing.
@@JankoLind Thank you for your answer! Yes, all Porsches are beautiful and it is just amazing that these cars are faster than many competitors with „less“ horsepower. This is engineering. I hope all your dreams of cars become true in the future. I love your Carrera S and of course I subscribed this fantastic channel. I wish you all the best.
It’s good to read about your experience. I’m wondering if there’s a difference between them when it comes to sound isolation. Have you noticed anything between the Turbo and Turbo S?
@@David-mg8zu Yes, personally, I noticed a difference between the two configurations of the glass because some wind/ rolling noises are filtered out but it wasn’t such significant that everyone immediately register it, maybe it was only my subjective experience. Between the two engine configurations I haven’t noticed any difference. I had the possibility to speak with Walther Rhörl who always had and actually has the “normal Turbo” and said that the engine response of the Turbo is better due to the smaller chargers and feeling the power differences is in reality very difficult if even impossible for a normal, sporty driver👍🏻
If that was you in the Ski shot and you are 46....dang!!!! Moving very good! Enjoy your content as usual.
Jeffrey, yes that was me in the sky and in the landing 😂

Thanks for watching appreciated it. If you are not already, please consider subscribing.
I'm tired of blokes complaining about how small the back seat is. It's because of these wussies the 911 ballooned to this size. Just buy an SUV instead of trying to ruin the size of what once was a perfect sportscar!
I agree but I don't want my kid to spend 5-7 hours in the back. Therefore a Cayenne is much mor suited. IF you are not already, please consider subscribing.
Loved this review, well done Janko! (and yes already subscribed 😀)
Thanks for your subscription and comment, love it when everybody contributes to our community.
Very thoughtful take on the car and why the “S” really isn’t needed if your not tracking it. Most reviewers assume you are racing an enthusiast car on the track; which is very unlikely. New subscriber here.
Welcome to our community Jnazione. I agree the Turbo is a great daily sports car.

So I test drove a 992 turbo today. And my facial expressions were very similar to janko’s reaction to when he accelerates.
I thought he was being goofy and over reacting. Nope. This car is completely ridiculous, and I want one!
It sure is Chris!
Porsche Is the best brand, no matter what. Quality, Sensitivity, Feeling to drive, The connection between the driver and the car are amazing.
The Sports Porsches are like a lving thing, more or less, you talk to the car and it understands you. I do not know how Porsche engineers do it, but they
just do it. Amazing brand, no question about it. I speak of my own experience and feelings of the Porsche brand.
Well put Toby!
Does this car have the 10mm lower spasm? If so does it make the ride quality too stiff on normal city roads or is it similar to standard pasm? Thanks
You don't feel much difference. It is tough to feel on SWE roads.

Happy you liked and understood the intro.
This blue color is just perfect on Turbo
Blue is a nice color. If you are not already, please consider subscribing.
By the time you add the basic options I would say are required for a 580 bhp car (and that are included in the S), you end up very close to the price of the Turbo S....but with 70 bhp less.
It's not about the money it about the 911 Turbo concept. But you are right from a financial point of view.
Thanks...great video with an original approach every time!
Thanks J M
I just found your channel through this video today Janko, and your infectious enthusiasm grabbed me from the start. I also love your take on (almost all) whiny British reviewers and their never-ending moans about bumpy roads. Here’s an idea UK, don’t drive on them if they’re so bad! 😂
Anyway, I’ve now subscribed and looking forward to more content from you - all the best with your channel!

Same here.
I think he misses the point because if you can spend $200K on a car, you can spend $230K and most will wonder why you didn't buy the top dog. There is a lot of personal satisfaction to own the best a manufacturer has to offer.
@@emericrobert8203 Agreed. Even the regular turbo is well in the realm of "too fast to ever be fully utilized on roads". And with a few options, it can be almost as expensive as a Turbo S. Why not just spend the extra money and get the best of the best.
Porsche does it again. coming up with a car that is WAY too much car for MOST drivers, then puts on many sets of "training wheels" to keep their clients alive... might as well find an old 912 - which is all you REALLY need.
Thank you all for contributing to our community. I'm very happy and satisfied with everybody's engagement.
@@emericrobert8203 not necessarily mate. Im saving for a 911 turbo. An extra 30k to me isn't that easily found compared to say someone who's earning 200k a year. What I end up buying is personal choice but just cos u have a lambo doesnt mean ur mansion rich with surplus money

Candid and humorous review, great stuff 👍👍👍
Big thanks George.
Janko, i believe this one and an autralian video are the only ones about the Turbo, the rest is all about the Turbo S.... there is not a single comparison between these two 992 cars. My bet is that the difference in performance is so little, it would be too inconvenient for Porsche and for Turbo S owners to justify the premium, don't you think? And as you explained really well, I'm a petrolhead but not a racing driver, the logical car for me, would be the Turbo rather than a GT3 Touring. And additionally, I'm addicted more to torque than to hi revs. As an M3 e92 manual owner, I enjoy driving much more my GLC43 AMG than my M3. If, by any chance you get the possibility to test and compare a Turbo vs the Turbo S of the 992 generation, I think you will make an interesting point... cheers from Colombia!
I agree, it is hard to justify the premium for the Turbo S in comparison to the "regular" Turbo. If you are not already, please consider subscribing.
I loved the review and your take on the Turbo vs Turbo S. I am stable Turbo owner who drove my Turbo all year round and in snow here in the states.
Hi Jay, owners of the 911 Turbo do understand my statement better. You don't get it during a short drive. If you are not already, please consider subscribing.
I have a ‘22 turbo that I ordered for October delivery. Can’t wait.
You're fortunate us British can laugh at ourselves.. but you already knew that.. Loved it Janko! fcuk sensitivity!! You come across as the kind of guy you could easily sit with in a bar and talk cars until the cows come home... cheers!
I did think 100 times if I should publish it and you are right, the British people I know could easily laugh at themselves. Regardless it was not an easy decision. It has a big scoop of irony and some real fact. I have not problem talking with you over a bear, but we might end up only talking cars...
@@JankoLind Forgot to say... I changed my mind on the manual 992 following your live review.. and ordered the Turbo last week. Your review is the ONLY proper review of the regular Turbo on the net.. apart from Autogefuhl.. which was not quite as informative and lacking in any kind of emotion..
Perfect review. It is very rare to find a top quality review on 992 turbo. Is it worth it to go for 992 turbo over the Carrera S?

Turbo S gang por vida. also I've never heard of a rock damaging PCCB, though I'm sure it happens but it's exceeding rare and I never have to wash my wheels
I have heard a lot of people damage their PCCB with a rock. As usual, thanks for watching.
😂 I love the dig at the nagging Brits. And great to hear the Swedish accent English once again after a couple of years living there. Those Swedish winters are brutal! Super impressive how the 911 Turbo seems to gobble up the ice and just rockets on.
nothing stand between drivning a 992 Turbo.
What a beautiful colour - looks so good against the snow and blue sky. The Turbo is definitely the sweet spot in terms of bang for buck! Who gives an elk poop for 0.1s
Great sense in your video - car and father philosophy.

That’s the best 911 review, loved the British B roads, yes they are crap, but you’ve misunderstood it’s not that they are bumpy it’s the holes like land mines that rip wheels off that’s the problem.

Hi Simon, I have the cars for minimum 1 week before the review. Its not a testdrive, it is a review. In addition I've own Porsches since I was 19 years old.
@@JankoLind also liked the comments about British highly paid TH-camrs, I quickly got fed up with them all getting same car, similar comments, the only one I really like is Harry’s garage because like you he obviously has had the car a while and worked out what he, the owner would want from everyday use.
Your comment on not getting carbon brakes and staying away from centre lock is real world use not headline grabbing comments.
Would have liked to know about real world fuel consumption, try asking about that and people look at you as if you are mad, you drive flat out everywhere, only if you are wealthy and view them as throw away items, I’m looking at you Middle East!

As hyper fast as the new Turbo is, I can’t help but think how overkill it is now. The C2S and C4S are already seriously fast, and with a basic tune are in supercar league.
I agree, the cars today are way over your normal needs, track day included.
Very nice review buddy! You gained a new Subscriber :)!
As an improvement (as you may already noticed): the mic was often rubbing against your jacket when you sat in the car , which made some disturbing noice
Welcome to our community. YES, I was angry when I realized my mic rubbed against my jacket. There is several clips that were not published because of this. But some I could not take away and could not be replaced. I'm sorry for messing with your ears but I needed to get the story going. If you don't know I'm a one-man show and this is a good example of the difficulties I'm facing producing.
Hi Janko, thanks for the great video. I wish you could talk a little more about if theres much turbo lag in comfort mode driven at lower revs (the way i guess it will mostly be used) though, am very curious about that. Nobody else in other reviews even talks about it and I am thinking there must be significant lag because of the ridiculous power output but am not sure. But really, great video nonetheless and and thanks for making it! It's obvious you are a true enthusiast
Thanks for the comment, it is no Turbo lag, the entire car is set to sleep in "normal" driving. As mention, you always need to swaths on drive mode, etc to get all power. If the question is if the care is hard to handle, not linear acceleration, in normal traffic then the answer is NO. It is great to drive in cities.
@@JankoLind Thank you!

A few questions.
What is it that you’re saying at the end of this video in Swedish? It’s not captioned in English
Can the PCCB brakes get damaged by a stone in between the calliper and the brake rotor?
I wanted to spec a new car with pccb brakes to eliminate the brake dust
Can't remember what I'm saying in Swedish, sorry. YES a PCCB could easily be damage if a stone is stuck between the caliper and disk.

Ohh Swedish drama is good Werner, Turbo? Base Carrera would be enough to loose your driving licence, but you would not believe me when I say; the speeds I’m driving in producing videos is not losing your license speed. If you are not already please consider subscribing

Hilarious reaction to the car's acceleration :)
...and I'm happy I just needed to do this one time.

What are your current experiences with the normal PASM and PASM S (-10mm). Can you say something about comfort and driving characteristics?
the PASM S (-10) makes the car look MUCH better and dose not effect the ride comfort. But it increases the drivning performance in corners but not as much as the Öhlins Road and Track, therefore, buy without and add the Öhlins.
Would it be enjoyable with the manual transmission?
Not sure, I believe the Turbo should be PDK for my taste anyway.
Janko, another top video, keep up the great work.
Thanks Midasman
Do not think the UK roads are that bad, maybe they are not as good as they were decades ago. I go back to The UK usually once a year, luckily my parents live on the North Welsh coast and so I can see what they mean by great B roads.
I've visit UK several times and I agree with your comment. Perhaps not all over the country but in the areas around good wood they are really good.
Hi Janko, amazing 992 turbo review , it is gentian blue , correct ?, the most detailed one for prospective turbo buyers. Friend deciding between 992 base carerra cab or the turbo cab for weekend fun no track duty , what would you recommend ?
I'm not a big fan of the 911 Turbo cabriolet, It kind of remove some aspects of the 911 Turbo concept. As I said in the video, you can not compare the 911 Turbo with other 911.
Whats about an GT3 Touring? If it had to be a Cab maybe he should go with a Carerra S manual?
dig your sense of humor Janko!
My wife always tells me that I will never be famous for my humor, I'm going to show her your comment.
Porsche just put a stop sale on noise insulated lightweight glass. Not sure why.
Correct, they prioritize GT3.
Quick question, is this car gentian or night blue? Seems to me like the latter but just want to be sure. Thanks
Gentian, the Night blue is much deeper and shines much more.
I love the UK segment
Me too :-)
Great video,, I can’t find the noise insulated glass anymore, any idea?
Supply issues, the deliveries made is reserved for the GT3.
The perfect car. 🥇
Could be :-)
Nice video. Can you comment on the PASM sport suspension option? Too much for a daily drive?
No, I would go with PASM regardless if it is Daily.

Excellent and a fun review Janko! I was looking for the Turbo specific reviews (non s) all over the internet and I could barely find any proper ones. Thanks for the great work and I appreciate your enthusiasm as always. Also, I am wondering if this Turbo you tested had the optional Sports PASM (10 mm lowered) or was it with the standard suspension. If so which Suspension would you recommend on the Turbo? I purchased a 2021 Carrera S and am really not fully satisfied as I am bored with the car under 2000 RPM as it feels boring, I am wondering if the Turbo is really good under 2000 RPM in comparison? I would really like to swap my Carrera S to a turbo, what would you recommend?
No not much under 2000 rpm and yes it is 10mm lowered. Happy you found my review. IF you are not already, please consider subscribing.
Great video. I have ordered a 992 Turbo, not an S for exactly the reasons you suggest! 😀
