Cant wait for the day when I buy my Turbo S!
9 years later... Still a fantastic car, and a quite unique video. Enjoyed!
This is perfect! Thank you for actually doing a snow review of a car with awd. I live in Alberta and it's so hard to figure out if cars will be good all year round. I currently own an s5 and its ground clearance just barely makes it (parts of the fibreglass underbody are ripped)
Hello Brian! I want you to know that your videos are fantastic. you are very friendly, speak calmly and plain language. keep it up. a hug a brasilero fan!
Felipe Brancher
Thank you Felipe!
I think you are one of the very best car reviews on yt. Highly relevant comments, good editing and nice videos. Keep up the good work !
Thanks! We really appreciate it!
Yes! Living in Chicago I've been waiting for someone to give a review of how it performs in the snow. Our winters can get pretty harsh. Thanks!
Happy to oblige! Thanks for watching!
Brian Makse Also were the seats comfortable? Could you see yourself driving it for a couple hours or across country?
I could do a full day's drive in those seats. They're fantastic.
Wow Thanks!and thanks for being so responsive!
For the last 25 years I have been driving my 87 930 all year long,in the winter good snow tires and 100lb of sand up front ,never had an problem and I live in Chicago!
Dream car!
It's unbelieveable a car that capable can go through snow like that. Great review Brian!
Honestly, so long as ground clearance is not an issue it was the best winter car I have ever driven. To be honest I never once had a single issue with how low it was even with the big snow storm we had. Most people see the car blast by and believe it must be horrible in the snow when in fact it has more traction than pretty much anything.
I was driving 997 turbo s this last year winter, despite i hate being frozen, it was some of very special winters.
Bought a 2015 yesterday, Racing Yellow with black accents and TechArt wheels. All yellow gauges and seat belts. Optioned up to high hell. This compliments my Guards Red 992 C4S.
Congrats, Ron!
Best car on the Planet ! Period
It's pretty close to perfection.
Nice! You have tested a 911 turbo s in deep snow! Wow! Very useful review! Thanks!
Ya, just brilliant car. Just brilliant
The most sorted, capable car on the planet and it's bullet proof and not temperamental like a Ferrari or Lambo, although the Huracan and 488 seem to be becoming more capable of being a DD if someone wanted too!
Amazing , all seasons and occasion super car! Great video!
Thanks, Jack!
911 Turbo S(now) 😍
Great video Brian, bloody awesome car.
Thanks, Geoffrey! It truly is. I couldn't get the thing stuck anywhere.
considering all the reviews I watched of supercars, Porche must be somewhere in the top 3 of best supercars in every way and for a long time (maybe even the number one)
manygaga1 Having driven almost every "supercar" I can say without question living with the 911 is by far the best. A lot of cars are amazing at being super, the 911 is not only super, but still functional as a car. You can use it rather than having it sit on the trickle charger for most of the year.
cool, that's also my conclusion..would love to drive one some day..even a basic boxster would be awesome
Just discovered this channel - definitely CHOICE :)
Thanks, Mike! Tell your friends!
From Poland: Great film about 911 turbo s. I am waiting for next... please do it.
+Michal Tatara I dont think the 991.2 turbos will land on the Canadian shores till the summer.
Great video. I can't wait to watch it in 4k. Your 4k review of the Z07 was visually stunning!
Speaking of which, assuming you lived in a snow-less region like, say, California :) which one you prefer: the 991 turbo (S or not) or the Z07 ?
Can I say GT3, GT4 or maybe 911 GTS?
Mike thanks what a car, it is only what you now expect of Porsche the best gets better
911 Turbo is amazing in every way, except for one thing. And only one thing, but yet so important, the noise. I think if porsche spend more time making the noise better/louder it would sell better imo.
Chris S If you option it with the sport exhaust its plenty loud. Its always a balance between "fun" and enjoyable on a daily bases. I think Porsche nailed it on the sport exhaust.
Good to know about 911's in snow. Granted I'd rather have a Mustang, Raptor & Navigator for the price but ya never know :D
You could have one of each, and even if you piled them on top of one another, none of them remotely resembles a 911 Turbo S.
Brian Makse I know, but as a investor 200,000.00 today could be 40 Million in the future =) I'm still banking your Mustang GT > BMW M4 statement.
Mr Berry Indeed. It's still the way to go. Just don't forget the Mustang's Performance Package option!
Mr Berry Its funny since the moment me and Brian got out from behind the wheel of the mustang we immediately unanimously compared it to the M4. I was a little scared it may have been honeymoon syndrome. I am happy to report that further drives back here in Canada, even in the Ecoboost, still had me dam impressed.
+Brianmakse I understand lol certain features of the back ground stood out. I live outside 1 hour and 15 minutes north east of toronto
+No Name Gotcha, that puts you in the ballpark! Thanks for watching and be sure to subscribe!
+No Name You then would not be far from where it was filmed.
Thanks for this Brian. All the car you ever need...Well maybe the cabrio version.
Thanks, Daniel! We gave the cabrio a go last winter and as much as I like an open car, I dig the coupe.
Yes, agree. It was just the idea of only ONE car for the whole car.
Sorry, year.
This coupe had the big glass sunroof. A decent compromise.
Freakin Awesome!!
Quality production .. would be great to see another mustang vid, or if you could swing it a mustang vs m4 vid
I know we have the M4 convertible coming, but I would rather not compare that to the mustang here on Canadian soil. The M4 vs Mustang GT PP is something I would want to save for the pretty roads of Cali. April is a transient time up here when it all looks super ugly. In terms of our next mustang film it may be the GT350 sate side or at the GT PP here in Canada come spring.
Nick Busato Thanks, Daniel! Stay tuned for more goodness!
Hi Brian, this is a wonderful review of the 911's capability as a everyday super car in winter. I am glad I have found this and also your channel. I have but one question.. Was this filmed on Concession 6 / Westney?
+dforty40 Thanks! I have no idea where we were, I just show up and do what I'm told!
beautiful film
+Anupam Ghosh Thanks! It's one of our favourites!
+Anupam Ghosh Super happy some take notice of the extra TLC we try and put into some of these films.
+Brian Makse Do you know what is your main problem with the low subs? Your photo, it is so bad, that I always think that this is one of that shittymarketroaches that fill up the youtube with fake videos. Please update, any printscreen from your face with the inside cam, will look better than this shit that you have.
Phenomenal video, Brian! I am really really looking forward to picking up a Porsche (used) when my current lease is up. I am looking at the 991 C4S... Do you think anyone that buys this would always be looking at the Turbo S or the C4 GTS and regret settling for the entry level 911? I would be using it as a daily driver in Montreal.
Thanks! Nah, there's a purity to a base 911 coupe that makes its a special motoring experience. It makes a brilliant daily driver.
If you want an exceptional exhaust soundtrack, I'd highly recommend the C4 GTS
papoopa5800 Any of the GTSs are great, even Cayman GTS, or any of the 3.8s with the sport exhaust option...or the GT3...
Such an awesome car. These roads are also awesome. Where did you shoot this? I'm in Etobicoke and always looking for nice roads around SO.
Its north east of the GTA, but I cant recommend them at all as "drivers roads." They are unpaved so in the summer its pretty pointless. Its quite pretty in the fall there though. With you being in Etobricoke you are way better off making the trip west to Dundas or north to Erin.
Nick Busato David, things always look better when they're edited well. Nick's right, these aren't really "drivers' roads" by a long shot.
This should be a feature film on Porsche's website js... smh :)
best car in the world
Não restam dúvidas, isto é um automóvel, o restante são armários com rodas.
Very appropriate for my region..
It's a great all weather supercar!
I love it!
the best porsche and the best supercar and it would've been perfect with a manuel gear box
well i still prefer the look and sound of the GT3 over the turbo s.... but the turbo s is such a true supercar and one thats on par with mclaren and ferrari for still less money (still a small value proposition)
some epic camera work and those snow shots doe.
but lacking a side profile shot i really wanted to see that :*(
Thank, Justin, you know it! We did get some profile stuff in there with the slo-mo footage!
Sorry mate, I knew when I filmed the statics I had skipped the side profile. I was justing being a big baby about how cold it was.
Nick Busato :O
i forgive you this time.... but this time only.
:P
lol but good work on the snow shots beautiful to see supercar driving out of its element.
justin bouche Thanks! The car is simply a blast to drive in the winter, one of, if not the best experiences I have had behind the wheel of a car. We are still sorting out the last of the teething issues with this new camera. With the added completely of snow I think we are really starting to make headroom on coming to terms with it. I believe there should be a 4k version up soon on Brians 4k channel as most of this was shot in UHD. Anything in slow mo however is 1080p upscaled.
Nick Busato justin bouche The 4K version is ready and going up on our 4K channel shortly. The detail in it is incredible.
Did you run winter tires on this 911?
skrads It was on proper winters.
+Brianmakse where did you film this in Ontario. Looks close to where I live
+No Name Ha! This could be anywhere in Ontario. Where do you live?
This car has 4 seats, right, are they practical at all?
Yes, for small children and shopping bags!
BARONsProductions I am 6'1 and tried it the other day... you don't wanna fold youself in there for longer, than say a quick pick-up from the train station back home, etc... unless you are way shorter, of course. Consider it storage space.
We need a 911 turbo targa GTs or turbo GTS cabriolet
Not sure if they will do a GTS turbo as the Turbo S is almost like a GTS in that a lot of options on the lower model come as standard on the S.
wish you'd show the Turbo S on salt covered winter roads in the US and how well the body holds up to all the chemicals used on US roads.
Porsches do just fine handling salt. A demonstration would take decades.
Brian Makse Thanks, Brian.
Was that shot around Bowmanville?
+Gunman6969 Nope.
Really because why not !! lol
To nice to be a snow beater if you ask me.
I think this video proves otherwise.
you didn't mention winter tires ...
Why would we?
+Brian Makse Holy cow, that was done without winter tires? OK, that's pretty damn amazing! Great car and love he review!
+vse0 No, the car had winters on it, but in those sizes, they're barely winter tires. I mean, you can still drive them flat out on the Autobahn, for crying out loud. Truly, the 911 Turbo S has remarkable grip with that all wheel drive system. Truly amazing.
Good luck trying to sell your Porsche after using it as your daily driver and on top of that driving it in the snow! Just saying!
madvette98 That sounds a little precious to me. Do you put a plastic cover on your sofa as well?
Brian Makse lol nice comeback Brian
madvette98 Porsche advocates that you drive them all year... they are completely sealed, and Porsche gives you what? 10 years warranty against rust? Also, with the thing largely made of aluminium now, it won't rost either way.... and they are definitely daily drivers, always have been. I will get my Boxster GTS 'just in time for winter', and I will daily it :) I don't understand why people aspire to buy a certain car for half their life - and when they finally manage to get it, they don't drive it... yeah, that makes sense...
Baerchenization I live in Chicago and when you have a nice car like a Porsche and your trying to sell it unfortunately the first thing the customer will ask you: " Is it Garage Kept?" and the second thing they ask is
"Did you drive it in the winter?" They use heavy salt on our roads! it might be different if you live in a better climate.
That"s the point I was trying to get across. Most people here in the Chicago land area only drive there valuable cars between May through September or October than it goes into the garage. I know it sucks but that's the way it is!
But I appreciate your comment and you point of view.
madvette98 Well, if they cannot tell whether it was kept in the garage by the looks of it, what the hell are they on about... it is not 1970 anymore, where cars used to fall apart like a moist cookie after six years. Aluminium is extremely oxidising - if you look at a piece of "aluminium", you are in fact not looking at a surface of aluminium at all, but at aluminium-oxide. It will cover itself in a layer of oxide in plain air just like that instantly and thus seal itself off naturally (if you remember your chemistry class). On top of that, it is sealed with a protective coting. If some dumbass suggests that your car is worthless because you drove it during winters, don't even bother with him; he doesn't know what he's talking about in the year 2015. Porsche give you a warranty because they CAN, not because they are happy to replace the entire production after 3 years ;) Oh yeah, in any event, you got that warranty... if you don't have a garage, your soft top might crap out at some point, but probably not by the time you sell it... again, it is not 1970 anymore... I am living in London right now, where EVERYBODY parks their supercars in the street, because it does not matter how rich you are, there are simply no garages in the city center. On the last street I used to live, every other car was a 911, Aston or Maserati... but people also park their Lambos, Ferraris, RRs and Maybachs outside... (mild winters, but still)
