Quite frankly, it's mind bending to think Rebecca is also a competent racing driver, successful business woman and even an salsa instructor. About the 911, I like the Jag F-Type better for it's looks and engine noise, but it's unquestionable Porsche makes outstanding cars.
The most balanced of all current 911s is the 991.2 Carrera 4S Coupé with manual box I ordered. Much lighter than this Cabriolet and allowing for authentic all weather driving devoid of computer crutches (paddleshifters).
What can you do if Porsche has booked you in for one day to make a 4 minute video? Anyway, you should take a basic turbo and pay 10K Euros to RUF to patch it up instead... they get the same power out of turbo and turbo S, so money well saved + invested ;)
To me, the car looks better with the top up, rather than down, which is opposite of most convertibles. Would you pay all the extra $ for the S over the regular turbo?
2:40 not that the 911 was ever a monster to drive. Especially not the 996. Too bad that is has 4wd standard. I 'd much rather have a RWD 3:23 not fair , becca. That is not a drawback, it's called 'communication' with your car. For this type it shouldn't matter. It will let you know it's boundaries and how you should handle it. Comfort is always a plus on Porsche yet it's never meant for longer journeys, everyday use, yes.
Tested a 2016 C4S - the road/tyre noise is really loud, no way you could enjoy a long journey. also tried a 991 1st gen turbo s and GTS, did find so much road noise there.
Is congratulations in order. Did I see a quick glimpse of an engagement ring. Loved your racecar review. Enjoy all your reviews. I think you should fly out to Australia and run that Porsche through some great roads in the Sunshine Coast hinterland or even through the Jarah Forrest south of Perth in Western Australia. Even our winter would treat you better than what you drove through.
Thank you very much for this video presentation. I found 150.000 Pounds of this Porsche 911 price is not so expensive. I think it is affordable for Uk citizens.
Why oh why is there no targa? (Supposedly because there is no space for the targa mechanism and the turbos...) So either this, or a highly specced targa GTS with a manual box, which is of course also a no-no in the turbo... I can see why rich people have 70 cars...
Porsche need to find a new name for this car now. Its completely pointless to call it turbo, when all models in the 911 range has turbo, except for the GT3.
I'm clicking there.. anyway just love your accent.. it's so sexy... yes Porsche engineering is one of the very best of all time.... my cousin has a Porsche Boxster Spyder and drives amazingly sharp and hugs the road with full confidence.
Seriously...someone actually gives her a pay cheque for this! She needs to lay off watching the Sarah Beeny home improvement TV shows, as that demeanour is starting to rub off.
Uninspiring looks...I'd be wishing for a GT3 anyday. Those headlights are feral. Thank god Rebecca did this review so there was something decent to look at.

Tin tops are great in winter and summer, nothing like cold fresh wind in ones face, and of course when the sun shines, that nice warm glowy feeling
I only come here for the Rebecca!
Summer in England?
It looks they only know rain in UK :)
Spring
Summer this year is on a Tuesday!
The don't have summer in the true sense of word, there's 10 days of ☀ in entirely year lol
LOL!
You're amazing Rebecca. It's such a delight watching you.
Absolutely great review, lacks the banana test though
Rebecca, you're a shining star... Keep up the good work! Ciao...
One if these things overtook me last week, I've never seen anything like it the can shift!!
I love this colour! Really makes the Turbo stand out!
They both also make an appealing sound. Rebecca's cute accent makes a pleasant combo with the deep, dark but suithing , comforting straight six.
Is there a Porsche in this video ? I didn't notice it.
beautiful colour
The most balanced of all current 911s is the 991.2 Carrera 4S Coupé with manual box I ordered. Much lighter than this Cabriolet and allowing for authentic all weather driving devoid of computer crutches (paddleshifters).
she is as happy as a kid with a new toy!
As the weather just demonstrated, get the tin-top, the convertible is pointless in the UK.
Not everybody lives on your funny island.
It was sunny yesterday
they should have filmed this yesterday
But when the sun shines on those few perfect days you'll regret NOT buying the cabrio!
Why would you regret buying the cabrio over the coupe? rainy day - roof up, sunny day - roof down!
Yay, let's review a convertible in the rain!
That said, it is the UK
+SilverS Haha lol

Well, a turbo is never a turbo s how ever much you want it to be so why not take that one and tune it..?
alongside Christina Schmid, the only other lady actually qualified to drive and review this car on the tube.
To me, the car looks better with the top up, rather than down, which is opposite of most convertibles.

Perfect car (not convertible though) + Rebecca = Perfect video!
0:29 'Supercar bait' I will try my best to make that term catch on with the Turbo S
that color 💝
DITTO...Miami Blue!!
you are superb keep reviewing cheers
The Targa is my favorite, it is the only one I would choose in the whole range.
Tested a 2016 C4S - the road/tyre noise is really loud, no way you could enjoy a long journey. also tried a 991 1st gen turbo s and GTS, did find so much road noise there.
The new DRL doesn't seem to be bright enough? It's like for cosmetic purpose only.
Rebeca great video but how comfortable is the car on British roads

just beautiful in every way!!!! the cars not bad either.
This is the couple perfect for me! Rebecca and turbo S
beccaaa
Smooth...
Would love to see Rebecca team up with Matt Watson again, over at car wow
That colour is just ghastly! 0 - 60 in just 3 seconds, wow!!! Great performance.
Rebecca for Top Gear presenter.
No chance.
you always seem to test convertibles in the rain!
Thank you very much for this video presentation. I found 150.000 Pounds of this Porsche 911 price is not so expensive. I think it is affordable for Uk citizens.
Toothpaste blue
Is it not fuse blue
its Miami blue
Nice job!❤
what camera were used to film this review?
Good lord this woman! 😍
Does Rebecca come with the car?
Rebecca ❤️😍
Bought one thanks to Rebecca!
Is that miami blue in 16? If so, the camera does is ZERO justice. In person miablue is amazing...
Fastest convertible? What about the 918 or the Veyron?
It very clearly said in the video, " Fastest 911 convertible to date..."
She did say fastest 911 convertible didn't she ?
They are a million plus anyway
Also, both the Veyron and the 918 classify as Targas as they don't use a retractable softtop, but rather manually operated roof panels.
A standard Carrera 2 Coupe is fine by me
A nice second hand 991.1 atmospheric Carrera 2 is the perfect Porsche for me, but if I could I would have a targa gts and turn it into RWD
+Carlitox b delete the roof mechanism it's shit
Carlitox b Same.
So did Bush so this car?
Gorgeous car... JUST STOP LEANING ON IT!!!
I think about the 911 much the same as I think about Rebecca: believe I'm supposed to like it more than I do.
What does she mean with twin clutch gearbox? Don't you say dual-clutch gearbox?
dual means twin
Dual means double not twin
+skybluesky1000 do you need someone to give you a medal for semantics... stop being so much of a smartass, nobody likes a smartass
LJSE I am just wondering why she says twin clutch gearbox. Most car reviewers say Dual-clutch gearbox. Is that a British thing?
Twin, dual, double all mean 2 of. they are the exact same thing
NAUGHT to SIXTY!! I'm in love!!LOL
rebecca...I fall in love with you every time. :'(
Add a D in your name
Needs a track review. ;)
Why oh why is there no targa? (Supposedly because there is no space for the targa mechanism and the turbos...) So either this, or a highly specced targa GTS with a manual box, which is of course also a no-no in the turbo... I can see why rich people have 70 cars...
Does England ever have sun?
Nope.
Nope.
Wow; Rebecca; just the best for Car Review; just beautiful!
Love the car and love the driver. Also very informative but must it be in the rain? Me thinks you need to do that in California. Just saying.
I've learned, that hers are called "knock knees".
UsperKrephus in my country they're called k-leg
Nice colour!
Rebecca is the best
Lo que es de mal gusto son los 4 leds por faro delantero, no se integran a la línea del vehículo... no corresponde.
"There are others out there just as fun to drive and dont cost as much money". Then proceeds to tell none of those cars ummm
mcLaren 570s
570s is not cheaper
+Niall Haven't you heard? FUN TO DRIVE. try again
1:00 yet it should NOT be counted as a drawback on a car like this.
Porsche need to find a new name for this car now. Its completely pointless to call it turbo, when all models in the 911 range has turbo, except for the GT3.
Yeas(Sean Connery style of saying yes)!!
LOL, good one.
Yesh mish moneypenny , get the ashton martin ready .
Now that's big shoun shpeakin'
Paul Duncan
Yeash, yhou are obviously a Shoun Counnehrey fan !
Gorgeous.
headroom is limitless, just what you want when you are 5 foot 4& a half.
But, as always, the rain in UK.
Well you are a race car driver who runs a Porsche. Also, you seem like you are Porsche biased, just saying. But good review and I like the Smurf Blue.
aha i had an ad for the 919 before this
Gorgeous. Car is OK too.
WOW!!!! 5 ft 4 and a half of loveliness 😍
her voice is more like a high pitched squeal.
Sexy af.
it would get annoying on the daily, and nagging haha
ill take one in white with black ascents hard top. this blue is a little bit barbie.
Never understood the need for a 500+ hp convertible!
The wedding ring is a bummer
9 grand more than the Turbo S coupe? Whaaat!
papoopa5800 lmao that's some funny shit man...😂😂😂
I'm clicking there.. anyway just love your accent.. it's so sexy... yes Porsche engineering is one of the very best of all time.... my cousin has a Porsche Boxster Spyder and drives amazingly sharp and hugs the road with full confidence.
Damn I’m usually able to focus on the car but not today.
0:23 SAVAGE.
Be my wife Rebecca!
nice car
Seriously...someone actually gives her a pay cheque for this!
She needs to lay off watching the Sarah Beeny home improvement TV shows, as that demeanour is starting to rub off.
the ultimate car turbo s what pathetic review was looking forward to this as well
Bravo the Porsche...
you r so pretty i love you
Uninspiring looks...I'd be wishing for a GT3 anyday. Those headlights are feral. Thank god Rebecca did this review so there was something decent to look at.
It seems like every review she does it's raining. wtf?
Advise change that old school TV style, this just isn't what you want on TH-cam.
why on earth would u buy a convertible in a country where it rains 364 out of 365 days in a year????? why
even if the turbo s is one of my favourite cars of all time I spent all the video thinking how you are gorgeous rebecca
totally missed the point......POWWWEEERRRRRRR!!!
Why would you bring such a beautiful car and driver to a wet, muddy farmyard?
If it flipped over, those back seat passengers would be flattened or decapitated
No practicality review?
we love natural asp. porsches. hate turbos !
Sounds like Brittany Spears doing Top Gear.
Tickle the engine? If you can afford the car, you can afford the gas
3 second girl r u drunk? It can hit 60 in 2.5 2.6 by a skilled driver
cool
