I still can't get over how expensive these 911s are now. Or how expensive cars are in general. Damn you inflation.
Track Day The pricing just heads 1 way.. up to nosebleed territory :). Makes a lot more sense to wait these out. It’s crazy that a 992 costs as much as a 991.1 turbo.
Perhaps but when you realize that the 992 C2S has equivalent performance to the Turbos from just a few years ago then it doesn't seem so expensive.
Indian 🇮🇳 DC Avanti or Sri Lankan 🇱🇰 Vega EVX.what is the best .?👍🔥 th-cam.com/video/Y8xvO7LhkEQ/w-d-xo.html
I remember 10 years ago the R8 V10 was under 140k CAD and now it's close to 200k
Porsche shines when pushed on track repeatedly. Most cars are fast for a few laps and then need cool downs. Porsche are designed to run all day track events with little downtime and low maintenance costs. Plus the interior is not cheap either so the price is higher. I want a Taycan Turbo S or a GT2RS
Outstanding cinematography. That launch shot where the car goes into the sunset is pure money.
nolantizing style is getting old, would like a little change up of all the overly dramatic slow motion
People that can afford them buy them. People that can't complain that they are overpriced. They are worth it if you have the $$$.
But to take a L from $2000 modded N55 b58 Vr30 .. PRICELE$$
Joel Harris true but Porsche’s are great on track. When I went to Germany I rented a 911 drove it on Nurburgring and it had a lot of traction on the turns. My corvette is faster than the Porsche but my corvette doesn’t do as great on track as the Porsche I drove.
Absolutely
The only Porsche what really impresses me are 911 Turbo ...or the gt3 rs .. I think people buy Porsche not to tuned them .(Talking from experience)
Brandon Anderson I was talking from experience though!! Just saying
Love how activating the launch control shook the camera in the beginning.
Spectacular cinematography, this channel deserves millions of views. Thank you for this quality content!
You dont understand Porsche until you drive Porsche. Its after that point you realize why they're so damn good. Also love your point of view about the interior. Love 991s, but not their interiors.
Mate, your content is incredible and extremely professionally done. I really look forward to seeing your videos. Well done! Thanks. Keep them coming!
Maddd skills! From video lighting to focus and balance of driving to explanation you nail it. My first time on your channel and it blew me away. You have a real gift bringing your review into perspective. Looking forward to future content!!
You’ll be driving a top of the line Porsche give it 2 more years. Your videos are well done and you present everything clearly and on point.
Man I quit watching car reviews kong time ago The hosts just annoyed me with being dramatic and acting arrogant. I am new to your channel I truly do appreciate your opinions and your brutal honesty
Driving off into the sunset??
Super cool
The intro really got me.
Super cool
Amazing video as always!!!
Much praise to this channel! Everything is done in good taste with great cinematography, dialogue, and execution. I was submersed the whole time. Well done! Subscribed
Many thanks for the high quality video!
Access to an airfield with vintage aircraft and badass cars doesn't get any better. Fantastic stuff. Thanks for creating this content.
Well done video! Loved the Exige in one of your shots too. I've got an Elise and 991, great combo.
Great video as always!
What a solid presentation.
Instantly subscribed.
Kudos man, you did a wonderful job.
Always excellent production quality!
Nice review. Not too long. Not too short. Love it.
Came across your video.. very motor trend.. like very good cheers! Well done like the numbers results and camarisons.. non silly to the point! And very good editing 👌.. I relate to your porshe experience.
Great vid as always. Definitely something to think about like u said in a couple of yrs. still enjoying my zo6. Waiting to see c8 zo6 official numbers
Very well done, nice aesthetic, nice vibe. Would love to see more Porsche content
Wow this is the first time I've seen this channel and that was an amazing video, great cinematography and very well made - and I'm not easily impressed. This is gonna blow up
You need to make a lot more videos bro. I thoroughly enjoy your videos
Great production, as usual.
Great video quality and content, a really good intro too
Very smart and well done review!
Great vid! Fantastic filming and great host.Keep doing what you do!
This channel will get 1M soon! Keep it up bro!
By soon you mean…..300 years? Not knocking the channel or host but he seems too fake. As if he’s presenting a facade and unable to be himself. Too scripted and unauthentic in my eyes.
This is a vintage Dan Wang video. The intro reminded me of your earlier videos, great work, amazing clock on the counter by the way (now I want one as well). I find that Porsche have always had a similar look, not that it's bad, they always looked good so why change something that works. Inflation works against us all the time but like we discussed last week it all comes down to bang for the buck. I mean, with an unlimited budget, this car is in my garage, but when reality sets in you can find close performance for much better price.
Quality work and the 992 is a great evolution of the 911 . Retro touches in and out if you know your Porsche’s.
Fantastic edit 👍💪
Love the standard exhausts And sound. Nice build up video😉
Brother how have I missed your content.
#1 Winder + watches
#2 The editing
#3 Sound quality
#4 Lighting
#5 of course car content
.... and light weight cars in the garage lol(I have 30th anniversary MX-5 in the garage)
I have been looking at a 911 for some time but as you say they are very expensive and in this day and age having high cost items can be a bit risky even though Porsches hold their value really well.
@Mazman Haha I’m glad you discovered me then. Big fan of lightweight cars. I have a friend who just picked up an ND2 Miata RF so I’d like to review it against my Abarth 124 Spider at some point this year. If you’re looking for a 991 generation Porsche, it’s probably a relatively safe bet since most of their depreciation is already done.
Great vid! Which watch winder is that??
@@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy looking forward to the comparison. I was on my last track event for the year this weekend testing out my Carbotech pads and new rotors it was a joy :).
All 911(2011 and up) model years with up to 50000-60000km are crazy expensive here in Sweden :). But will most likely not depreciate any more or very little
Most underrated channel on TH-cam! Keep up the amazing content
Love these videos the cinematography is nuts...whats the name of thst watch winder i need one of those?
Well done dude . Great video!
Loving watching your evolution! Where is the airport?
@RevMatchTV Thanks! That’s Princeton Airport, about 20 minutes away from me.
This dude out here making car reviews that look and sound like professional films. Seriously impressive.
This a very well presented review.
Your house is dope got some cool kit. Well done.
Great video, 992 is the best looking Porsche to date imo...
Great car and content
I'd love to see more Porsche content, especially something along the lines of the 991 turbo or the 992 turbo given the opportunity. Porsche has become an odd car brand lately; some mixture of its Le Mans racing heritage and "Old golf guy" image makes it both the baseline/iconic sports cars series, and the cars that fade into the background of conversation. The Volkswagen group has become an interesting case study; despite them all being under the same umbrella, their fierce competition has led them to make cars that are perfect in their own respects. A Bentley is... Well, a Bentley. Bugatti Chirons are a masterclass in engineering beauty and performance. A $240,000 Porsche 911 Turbo S is a bargain compared to the Aventador SVJ at ~$800,000, yet offers a very marginal performance difference. But between the two, only the SVJ has the NBR record.
Great video as always, I look forward to seeing the next one! :)
@Andrey Skorodumov I’m starting to really appreciate Porsches, so I’d like to get more content on the channel as well. We’ll see what happens with that. The SVJ is a monster but remember that NBR records are just that, records. If you or I, or anyone else for that matter got into an SVJ or 911 Turbo S, our times on the Ring would be very different than what manufacturer testers get.
Currently own a 2019 M5, 2020 X7 and 2020 Ram 1500 Limited. Definitely adding a 911 Turbo S and Bentley GT in the future! Keep the great content coming. 👌💯
Great video
It was a great time filming with you Dan. You have made the 992 look awesome in this video and hopefully we can do some more filming in person. Maybe a Taycan soon? or a CGT or 918 Spyder?
Who r u
@Camsprouse317 Thanks Cam, the pleasure was ours and thanks again for hooking it up. We’d definitely love to do another collab with you guys, hopefully this time with the GM’s blessing. And I also appreciate you answering some of the questions around the comments.
Track Day we're gonna get you hooked on porsches, beware
Great video.
Great video. I have a 992s and agree with you
Great video thank you. You put this 992 in a perfect perspective. What is the name of the color by the way gentian blue? Dark blue metallic? Thank you
The color of this car is Gentian Blue
Porsche is def something special. My 970 turbo moves for a 4400lbs 8 year old car.
A small check to tuners like Cobb and this thing will crush true supercars. It has visual presence but still flies under the radar more than the typical Lambo or McLaren.
Love the video as always.
You can buy a 992 Base model and tune it for more power than the 992 S. Thats pretty crazy
Or tune an S to make more power than a Turbo.
It never ends
This is true
And the best part is you are driving a classy 911. Not a dbag Lambo or McLaren.
@@j.3854 in my early 20’s I’d have disagreed with this. Now, flying under the radar seems much more appealing.
i like the slow mo in the vid; i also can't find myself fully into porshe but then again, i have not driven one before. heard it is a life changing for some folks
You know what's crazy? This Carrera S is now faster than a 997 Turbo S which has almost 100 more horsepower. Technology has come a long way. But so has the price, a 2010 Turbo would cost roughly the same as a fully spec'd 992 Carrera S.
That engine is underrated
Well done my man, I’m torn between 992s and a 991 turbo or turbo s too
Beast!!!
Great video! Yes, they have jumped up in price considerably from the 991.2 models.
Looking at this 992 or waiting for the C8 ZO6.....to compliment my M340i (daily). Great video!
Porsche 911 is very cool. I love it.
Bro you have to link your watch winding box !
Heyy another carbro. What the world needs
You have an great channel , I watched all your videos. Maybe you can add the 100-200 km/h and 0-100 km/h? You have it in the Vbox . Thank you and keep up the great content.
Good video as usual. I like the Porsche and if purchasing, apply the same strategy. Thanks
Thanks for this video. However, I believe we need a more thorough review. I've already ordered my carrera s and it's shipping somtime in December so I'm excited. I just would like to see a slightly better 0-60 time, (car and driver claims it at 3 seconds flat). Just also wondering if your tires were warmed up prior to testing and also how many attempts did you make to get that time of 3.57?
@Robin Singh Congrats on your Carrera S, the car is definitely a piece of work. I would love to do a more thorough review of anything I get, but I think what people don’t know is that I normally only get a few hours with a car like this and I don’t want to give a thorough review that isn’t accurate so I do a more generalized performance review. If a dealer/fan/friend/manufacturer send me a car for at least a day, then I can confidently give a more in-depth on the car.
As for performance times, C&D are known to have notoriously fast times on almost anything. Also, their 3.0 second 0-60 time includes the 1ft rollout which usually accounts for about 0.2-0.3 seconds depending on car. As mentioned in the video, with the rollout, the time is something like 3.38 seconds. They probably also have all day to nail the time on a prepped drag strip with sticky pavement. Where as on an airport runway, it’s basically the same as running on the street. Plus for this car, we only got 2 attempts. Essentially, I try to provide more “real world/realistic times.”
@@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy Thanks for the reply Dan ! Good to know about your test process and it makes more sense now. I'll keep you posted about a review once I get my car. Yes these cars are very expensive (but Porsche gives you a plethora of options to add depending solely on the buyer, so it's fair to say that these cars can be optioned to a lower price), I had to spend months on my purchase decision (switched from almost buying an m850i to the carrera s). I will keep you posted once the car has arrived. And yes especially here in British Columbia, canada, the auto luxury taxes are insane. I specced out this car really decently and didn't go overboard with anything. Mine has : rear axle steering, stock exhaust, stock carrera s wheels (20front21rear), LaneKeepAssist, premium package, leather seats (no leather on the dash), gentian blue metallic, sport chrono package, and some other minor additions.
Thanks again for your response!
I share your views exactly. A loyal BMW fanboy driving M cars since the E36 days, but every time I drive a Porsche it is in a different class. Nothing is as refined as a Porsche, nothing.
Good job recording the sound of the engine.
i hear you on getting a used Turbo. the 992s are expensive but i think it is justified based on the performance.
You didn't use the sport response button for the launches. It makes a significant difference. Your times would have been much better.
Impressive in a straight-line, outstanding on a good twisty back road with no traffic. There is no substitute.
I just got mine tonight top notch car
Did you use the Sport Response Button to get the best performance and acceleration?
Even after all these years (50+), the 911 is still my 'dream car'.
This car did not have the Sports Package correct? I really like the dual pipes but apparently that option is not available if you go with the Sports Package.
I'm going to walk in slo-motion when my C2S arrives in January!
Another great video! However you seemed to be a lot more excited driving the 718 GT4 than this 911S. Which would you rather have?
@Sihyung Park Thanks! Well, the truth is, I got a lot more time with the GT4 than the 911S hence the more in-depth review on the 718. It’s a hard choice, but at this moment, if price is no object, I’d say the 911S simply because it fits my needs more at this moment in life (backseat for baby seats).
Video work is bonkers as always... The base car is just so very interesting from a performance standpoint, they are pretty quick and respond well to bolt on power upgrades as well. The price is a pill to swallow but the held value is great. The smart money is buy a 1 or 2yr old S model for a price that works. But as noted a Turbo or Turbo S is a small step up and of course the better car
I'd be interested to see the numbers on a C4S. The way that thing hooks up on launch is ridiculous. Some lovely photography here...
Did you prefer Cayman or 911 & why? Also PDK or manual?
@CarGuy11 Ah that’s hard. I didn’t get nearly as much time with the 911 as I did with the Caymans but I’d have to say for street and backroads, I’d go 911. For track work, I’d pick the Caymans (specifically the 718 GT4). Conversely, for track driving, I’d pick PDK and for street driving, it’s manual all the way.
Is that color called Gentian Blue Metallic? Same as the GT4 you drove right?
Yes
I might be in the minority but I prefer the standard quad exhaust (this one) compared to the optional twin sport exhaust. I imagine it doesn't sound as good though..
it doesnt lol
I think the 992 made the twin exhaust way better looking than that on the 991.2. But I see your point, although quad tip only mostly existed on 997 to 991.1, for a lot longer time, 911 had twin exhaust. to me the twin exhaust wins by some margin.
The Standard Quad exhaust tips does look amazing. But the dual solo tips (Sports Exhaust Package) just sounds so much better on the 992
Sounds better & twin ovals give nod to last gens GT2RS.
Dude is rocking his watch collection! When will you test drive GT3 or Turbo S?
@Danny M Haha yeah, peer pressured into the watch game! As for the Turbo or GT3, I’m just waiting for a fan or friend to buy one and donate it for a day.
“443hp doesn’t sound like a lot.”
When I was growing up a 12-cylinder Lamborghini or Ferrari had 380hp and a 911 Turbo had 300. 😮
Yeah, HP in the 440’s is still quite a bit of power for something in that weight range, particularly with the other features it’s got going for it (engine placement, PDK, etc). I got my TT RS up to 453hp/459lbft though with just a few extra grand from a basic ECU tune, so those horsies are not cheap in the Porsche, but the engineering really shows.
I’m not in love with the 992 body but Porsche has done well with the “non turbo(turbo)” engines
So when can we expect to see a Porsche in the garage?
Which would you personally prefer and why, this 992 carrera s or a 718 Gt4?
As always, great job. The new 911 is a little sexier but still looks like always has. Exotic? No. Capable? Always.
BUT what is the EXPERIENCE like driving it like a sportscar? Numbers are numbers but what emotions does it evoke?
super quick car and with just a tune they can make another 100hp
Hey bro Im glad to see new video hope you’re doing well and so is your family I had a question would you rather buy $140k 992 911 4s knowing you can maybe get 5-8% off, 2016 911 turbo s but maintenance maybe a pain cause it’s got more miles, or attempt to get a 18 r8 v10 performance price points are around 130-140
If you can find a 992 4S that is somewhat optioned for $140, I'd jump on it. For me, 18 way seats, sport chrono, sport exhaust, PASM/PDCC are a must. I'd be surprised to find that for $140 since Porsche hammers you on option expenses.
The 991.1 interior and electronics are archaic so I would rule that out, personally.
In the end, you really can't go wrong with any of the 3 you mentioned. All good choices. Comes down to personal preferences.
@@olivergrizzly6346 thanks for the input I continue to do my research
@Jose Velasquez Thanks man. That’s always an interesting choice. In this case, I’d go 992 simply because the 2016 is a 991.1 and for me, I rather get the 991.2 Turbo which started in 2017. Those would be closer in price after negotiations. I think if you get it with under 20K miles, I wouldn’t worry too much about maintenance. As for the R8V10, it’s definitely a better looking car than the Porsche in my eyes. Stock for stock performance would be similar with the Turbo being slightly quicker. Bets are off when the Turbo gets mods though. Now I don’t know what’s going on with the car market right now. COVID has really kind of made things weird where cars have gotten universally more expensive. I’d say maybe wait it out a little and see what winter looks like for the used market.
@@SpeedLabsMotorEnvy Thank you so much brother I hope to get one of these cars soon, At which point if things get better after the pandemic I would love to have you review it and take some saucy pics again thanks for the advice I wish you best of luck
Truly an elegant car, awesome performance overall. Definitely pricy for what you get, but at least the quality is there. Maintenance though... gotta drop that engine out just to work on it, but pretty standard stuff for the Porsche’s considering the boxer layout and position in the car. Sacrifices must be made!
I bought a used Porsche (Macan Turbo 2015) and it's one of the best things I've ever done. I just love the Porsche, every week I find something new about the car that I love like one touch seats, independent air for passenger/Driver, blind spot warning, heated steering wheel, etc the list goes on and I keep finding new things. Yes the price is high, but fuck it. I love getting in my car EVERY DAY so there's no price tag for that. Just buy one.
P
As perfect as a car can get! Flawless consistent world class in every category.
Great video, Thank you.
In my head I'm also in slow-mo every time I get in my car ;)
From experience, the turbo 911's are awesome in weekend or tour doses, but like many supercars have too much power to enjoy on normal roads. There is a real sweet-spot in useable power to weight in a daily car, that goes towards making a car enjoyable, any time, any weather, any road.
However as a 992s owner, this car pushes that to the limit and on a dry day with the right tyres the 911 S leaves me lost for words on its grip, speed and back road capability.
Would I have more fun in a Turbo/s on my UK twisty A-roads on the limit? No, I would be in prison or hitting mud / horses / cyclists far too quickly and again be back in prison/hospital.
Would I have more fun in a non-S manual..? Well, the 991.2 T sold very well in europe and I hope Porsche listened to this when thinking about the 992 GTS...
It may well be we have yet to see the best "useable" 992 and I'm not talking about the GT cars.
For that money a well optioned CPO 991 Turbo S was my choice. Best daily driver supercar ever IMHO. I prefer the 991 esthetic over the 992 as well.
no way my 2018 SL63 is faster than a AMG gtr in quarter mile... no way.
U wanna go another variable deeper to get down to the bottom of these power to weight anamolies u should measure maximum forward g's of acceleration
I’ll take one in Agate Gray, with the Aerokit please.
2:35
Just saw a 992 in person. They do look absolutely better than the last generation 911.
So you are a watch fan too. Still on the wish list for an Daytona? Me too ...
It's faster than a GT3 .2 0-60
