- German correspondent Thomas Hellmanzik gets his first 911 driving experience, and promptly hits 200 on the Autobahn. Along the way he discusses the specifics of the new 991.2 GTS.
Look for more new videos on Thursdays. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
200mph... on the Autobahn... in a 911. That is a dream day.
RS how is this car so fast? This is the top speed of the 991.1 Turbo S......
Porsche knows how to put power to the ground. Also, their stated performance numbers are generally under-rated (0-60, top speed, and presumably HP).
Porsche is always very conservative with their claims.
can't trust the speedometer
PLAY_HRD @1:50 it's 322 km= 200 mph
He drives fast, he brakes damn hard. I love this guy! One of the best reviewers out there and I'm so happy that he is from Europe! keep it up everyday driver bro!
Easy when it's the SE model (Someone else's!)
Agree. So good to see this car railing turns at speed.
He’s from Bawstun
I like that he drives like a proper madman! Exactly how these machines should be driven.
Nik Brudar holy you're literally on every single porsche video on TH-cam haha!
Nik Brudar Nick Brudaaaaarrrrrrrrr
ZDY HE HAS GOOD TASTE
Nik Brudar likes it.
Willy Willy then again, the reason I know is because, so am I.
it sounds surprisingly good for a turbocharged engine. good job porsche
Except for the crackling in sport mode. Sport+ sounds SO much better.
I like the crackling. It gives some silliness to an otherwise serious car
Musa Bashir It's turbocharged, but not much, the turbo is not as heavy as in a turbo or turbo s, it just gives the last kick
Love those crackles!
That man knows how to do a car review properly, awesome work, really.
Damn Tom, your videos have come so far - Awesome stuff dude
Aiiigh ma man JEFF GLUCKER whats up homie
So good right? Love it.
Always nice, to see Bill Burr testing some cars...
Charles Bronson lmao thought I was the only one that felt something looked familiar
yeah
Just a guy and his CAAAAHHHH
He even sounds like Bill!
You're awesome dude. I was watching a video the other day of some dudes in a Ferrari freaking out about going 190 and you're just a chill cucumber. I love that, you're not over playing things and you're actually using the car the way it should be used.
Dylan Alsgaard I was scared for him that some goof would pull into the left lane with no time for to react. Terrible way to meet God before one is ready to.
That looked so smooth and stable at 200. Impressive!!
Porsche simply builds the best sports cars!
Fantastic work! This is my favorite piece from the channel so far...
The German Chris Harris.
The German Bill Burr
I totally agree,reckon they are brothers
With a Boston accent.
not as skilled as chris i guess though. i find them both equally sympathetic.
yeah this guy is cool
Whoa! That was absolutely top notch work! Fantastic edit, no dead spots, well shot, and Tom is an entertaining and clearly competent presenter. Bravo!
More Tom please!
200 mph from 450 hp... Amazing.
I'm not really understanding that, this would have to be a record for least powerful 200mph car.
yeah and how fast odes it look?!
Porsche always underestimates their performance. Power is more like 475hp stock, and the car is relatively lightweight by today’s standards. A stage 1 tune bumps power close to 550hp, putting its performance in supercar league.
THANK YOU ! How many times I have wish that auto journalists mentioned the car's stereo or the little aspects such as the cruise control. You go over the crucial technicities and the feels while driving and you still go over the little things like these. Cheers from france Tom.
Absolute pleasure to watch, thank you for the smiles!
Great review and I love the breadth of footage included.
It's always great to hear someone give insight on a car's dynamics from an informed position, at a level above the normal car show cliches. Great car, great video.
Great video Tom. The "significant" corner shot at 6.03 is awesome!
Outstanding review as well. Feel so engaged.. just can't wait to drive one
What a great, genuine and compelling review. Great job Tom.
Miami blue GTS, rear seat delete, PCCB and carbon seats. Almost perfect spec. The only thing I'd change would be to spec bright coloured seatbelts. What a car.
I miss Thomas! I know he's still producing content on a German channel but his crazy enthusiasm in English is a joy :)
Fantastic review, glad I stumbled across it. Thanks..
Can't believe I hadn't seen this one until now. So good guys.
Awesome review. Looking forward to meeting you at the pilgrimage trip in September.
Another awesome video Mr. Soprano.. Cheers from Berlin! Immer weiter so! Pleasure to watch
Porsche did a great job with making the engine sound less turbo charged but the difference is still quite spotty. No more insane natural breathing rawness. But probably worth it to comply with new regulations while making car faster. At least GT3 exists in natural aspiration still (and hopefully forever)
i like the reviewer, good job
Hey man I like your honesty about this car....im glad that you don't pretend to be some Porsche specialist even tho you've driven them more than the average fella.
Not seen you before and I love your style, great vid! I'm not much of a Porsche fan but you can't argue how good this car is!
Great review , well done my man !
omg this video is perfect, just what we wanna see the CAR from every angle including first person fov. Just shows how beautiful the car is and even in the perspective of the driver so you can imagine how it would turn in etc.
Love your reviews! LOVE this car! This is one of my goals!
Fantastic Review..really well done!
glad to be seeing you again Tom !
This guy is great. Brings a lot more enthusiasm to an already great channel
Holy shit @ 6:02. Impressive. Love your editing. Great work!
Love your videos, Tom!
Damn, I wish I found out about your channel earlier. This review is so good and I'm sure the rest of the videos are up to this level. Kudos to you for making such good content!
Edit: That outro itself deserves a sub
Nice review! Great job!
Awesome drive and review!
Great review, it seems that you really know what you're doing... beautiful car too!
Great car, specially with a manual transmission! Awesome review!
very good review!!
I love this new GTS! It's my future car, for sure. I think the GTS trim is the best 'bang or buck' 911 you can buy. This is the same config I'd get too, RWD manual coupe, maybe with the glass sunroof, in agate gray. I should be able to afford one by the time i retire :(
Fantastic review!
For second i though that was Chris Harris gone completely bald
Amazing review 🔥
Great review !!
Awesome review
What a great review!
This man is a gem.
This sounds absolutely amazing.
Guys, this and the last Velocity video have been your best productions so far! But I'm missing the Skype recap with Paul & Todd at the end of this.
Lovely. Love the car, love the scenery, love the patter.
very good report. Nice one.
That looks like so much fun!
Awesome car and review -- well done
Amazing accent. Love this guys style of presentation. Thanks.
really like what you're doing, dont stop posting pls
I love the new GTS. It's my future car, for sure. It's the sweet spot in the 911 lineup. This is exactly the spec I'd get, RWD manual coupe, maybe with the glass sunroof. Can't wait!
So glad to see more Tom content. This guy's a boss.
Great work Thomas - YOu have a real ability to express the nuances of the driving experience. My fav reviewer, ahead of Henry Catchpole, then Harris (bit overexcited) then Harry Metcalfe
Awesome review guys!! Great info, realism, and excitement. Not scripted and boring (Like Motor Trend!).
great review man.
Great detailed review and good to see a car run out to Vmax on the Autobahn!
Can't do that in America, too many entitled left lane hoggers.
My biggest pet peeve! That and a$$h0les that speed up when you go to pass them.
Vision33r and a speed limit
Vision33r the evil that men do.
Who cares about the speed limit, pay $500 and off you go.
there is also no legal high way in the U.S that lets you go 200mph.
Perfect review.
no picture or video will ever do the miami blue justice. it's so beautiful when you see it in person
love this channel
This is my idea of the ultimate car,i have loved these cars since i was a young teen,awesome!
That colour is absolutely more than perfect for this car, it gets even more charming in this colour.
Great video. I'm very happy i watched
Great review.
A few times I thought it was Billy Corgan at the wheel. >
One of the great Porsche model GTS! Perfect for street use. 🦅🦅🇺🇸
that silhouette from far enough looks like a Cayman too at a glance, to be fair
Bill Burr and Tom doing a Cars & Coffee episode would blow my mind!
my dream car, the best 911 you can buy
great video! Someday I hope to own a new 911.
Damn, this instantly made me happy
that Miami blue works on 911 really well..!
Yo I subscribed ! Great video!
A dream car! 👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Great video and that GTS looks incredible! at 1:57 it's a wet dream!!
When it comes to dynamics; Porsche knows best.
To get rid of the door panel vibrations from bass sound, just go into the sound system and turn down the bass. Cures the problem.
My kids will definitely ask to go for a quick ride in the back :)
dream car. love the colour..
nice review on the GTS, Given more of us will buy Macan variants than 911s, can you also do a review on the S, GTS, or turbo Macan and explain the new features and specs. Again, decent video. Thanks
Hey should I get a gt3 or carrera base for daily driving and is it true gt3 is a bumper car but isn't both car same height
Christmas Day came early for you this year!!!
i remember you also reviewed the new 718 as your "first" porsche. How does that car sound now compared to the 911 after driving both??
That's a supreme spec!
Was recently lucky enough to do a “corporate day” with an R8, Aston , Skyline , Lamborghini , Ferrari and a 911 GTS. The GTS was head and shoulders above all the others. I had no pre-conceived ideas before the day. However I was gobsmacked at the difference.
They are pretty epic.
Good real world review. For me, if I bought ANY 911 I would not only expect the best balances sports car driving but also top notch build quality. Door panels rattling??? On a car that costs over $100,000 CAD/USD??? Unacceptable. Something for new buyers of 911's to consider if looking at the GTS cars. Many WILL want to listen to music and not only the engine/exhaust.
Excellent review, and well done. I enjoy your approach, not too technical, but you know your stuff. I’m getting close to getting my dream 911 (used) and the GTS is really the best package without going crazy on options. My dilemma has been getting the 911.1 or a 991.2. While i believe the .1 NA cars are fantastic, it’s hard to argue with more power and torque of the .2 and 992 cars, and they are tuneable. The pricing is high right now on the NA cars, so I can get a .2 car for not much more, and the financing is more favorable because they are newer. I’d like to know if anyone has any experience with maintenance issues on the newer turbo 3.0
Engines, or if they are solid. I’d like to keep the car for at least 10 years, and while I’ll keep the miles low, I don’t want to have repair bills because I didn’t get a 3.8 flat 6….Any advice is appreciated with opinions?
So what did you end up buying? I bought a used 991.1 GTS by choice although I have driven the 992 on the track. The kick you get with the turbo is nice and so is the PDK (on the track), but I much prefer the linear power of my NA 991.1 GTS and my 7-speed manual for street use.
that color
is so good
My first car was a midengined 1972 2.0 l 914, now revered by racing driver schools, later on I owned a 944, best handling transaxle you wish for and light as a feather (1120 kg). Now I am saving up for a boxster gts because I love open cars. And a nice 928 as an investment. They still are affordable right now. If I could choose just one old Porsche it would be a 911 SC Rally Special. Go check the sound. Older Porsches are more diverse than you would think, addictive and once you are fixed.... If you never owned one, buy one, no matter which one except the SUVs of course, good cars though. Now I am going to rent a new turbo 911 to make my own opinion of the new sound.
I loved this episode
AND fuckin proper gearbox! PORSCHE please offer EVERY 911 variant in a MANUAL GEARBOX!
