THIS is the New Porsche 911 Speedster! | My First Drive

- My first drive in the new Porsche 911 Speedster! With an incredible sound, manual gearbox, and open roof, it's a recipe for a fantastic drive but let's found out if it lives up to expectations. The outing with my friends at Dulac Cars gets even better thanks to convoying with their 911 GT3 too for even more of a Porsche experience!
It's a formula that's been tried, tested, and proven to succeed; the purest driving form of the Porsche 911 returns in Speedster bodystyle. Powered by the familiar 4.0l naturally aspirated flat-6 at the back that's been re-engineered for the new standards, despite existing alongside the newer turbo generation 992 cars, and now making 510hp. Crucially, engagement comes thanks to the 6 speed manual gearbox with auto-blip as an option, and of course keeping the weight down while allowing the open-top experience is a roof that requires manual involvement to save weight and prevent the centre of gravity lifting more than it needs to.
There are only 1,948 Speedsters in existence, having launched in 2018 during Porsche's 70th anniversary since being founded in 1948, and this example from Dulac Cars is one of only a handful featuring very high CCX Exclusive Manufaktur content. In particular the body is PTS Miessen Blue, the colour of the first 1954 356 Speedster, the roof is navy blue matching with the Mer Blue wheels, and the interior features navy blue leather with houndstooth seat inserts to go with them.
To get things started, we're at the collection that features an amazing array of cars including the 991.2 GT3 manual which joins for the convoy drive, a 991.2 GT2 RS, both a Ferrari 812 Superfast and 812 GTS, Pista Spider and a McLaren 600LT. After getting the Speeedster out on the road it's an opportunity for me to experience it both roof down and later roof up as well, to experience what it's like.
There's no doubt it's a precise and brilliant machine, although with a significantly higher price tag than the GT3 considering the work that needed to be done to the engine it's also a challenging proposition. Combine the impacts to the engine's exhaust note thanks to the regulation-required OPF and some of the drama is taken away from an otherwise absolutely fantastic car.
Thanks for watching, Tim

The Porsche 911 Speedster brings a winning formula to the table, but let's find out if it lives up to expectations. With a Porsche gap in the garage, do you think this should be the next addition?
yes!! I think it deserves a spot In the garage
You really need another convertible
I love Porsche
Absolutely
Yes absoloutely this is the car you need a Porsche a convertible and a super nice car
The 911 Speedster is one of Porsche’s best cars
A modern classic
I've always hated the "modern classic" oxymoron.
@@Kronos0999 funny I was thinking the exact same thing.
The first 911 Speedster developed by the GT department! Truly setting a new standard!
oh it's you again
Yes. And a Fiat 500 is a modern classic ‘two’. 💩
just sayin’.
Of course I read it as "THIS is MY New Porsche 911 Speedster!"
Me too..
@Stanley Kong Hv u brought it buddy.
If yes then congrats.
I got Doug vibes from it lol
@@sabersz Me too... Maybe that was his intentions looking at the way it is written "This".
I was all excited because its my favourite Porsche.
I was going to buy one now but this top is too hard to open. Gonna stay with my Honda Civic.
😂
Vitor C ikr, he was going on and on about how hard it was to get the roof on and off. Looked like it was really easy, lol.
Your civic is prob worth less than the speedster's window button. Work your way up Pal.
Agree. Don’t waste your money. Manually lifting the rear hatch? How goosch.
😂😂
*This car is definitely a true future classic car. And its price will go up day by day.*
How much is Porsche paying you?
That’s gonna be a No from me Dog
probably not enough, but he is right
I’d say 300k out the door brand new is fair for a brand new top tier sports car but rarity comes with time and depreciation of similar models of the same year. could be worth millions some day but I’d never pay that.
That color is beautiful it makes the excellent look of the 911 even better.
Ya buddy its the new color of Porsche 911 introduced in 2020.
I had seen this color in the review of this 911 speedster on Autocar.
Hyundai's N's come in clean slate which looks almost similar.
That blue speedster is sweet and can't forget the gt3 engine with manual transmission.
The 911 Speedster has really grown on me... what a spec too! Great video as always Shmee
This spec is stunning for the car
It's always gonna be a hot collector mainly because Porsche will never build a NA 911 GTS, 911 GT3 cab. 🤔
I like it, but I'd prefer a Boxster Spyder and a GT3 Touring for the money. With change, I could spec them to the moon and back or something of that nature.
I agree with you there, the price is mental. However like you said it is one of the last 911’s of that generation so it could definitely be a good investment!
@@F1ll1nTh3Blanks Speedster however is the only 911 with ITBs... Depends how much those are worth to you.
This is already a classic
I'm sure it will be
Thanks for this Shmee! I love these types of videos, and you never fail to provide new and exclusive content for your viewers. Keep it up!
12:04 "This is driving perfection, Porsche style" he says with a big grin. Great to see you enjoying a great car. Speedster is dream material.
Love that color!
Love from Berlin ❣️
Thanks for so much content over so many years.
U r the best 😘
Keep up the great content. So glad to say I have been following you for years! Have a great day, Tim!
Thank you for such amazing videos and we are always there in full support
Just Masterpiece and so nice color!!!
All Speedsters are stunning!!!
Wow epic machine..Sounds great! Nice job Tim. Hope to see you back in Newport Beach sometime when this crazyness is over.
Your videos are just the best thing! Good content, good quality, great man behind the camera and in front of the camera!
Thank you for the kind words!
Loving the angle on the dash in the last few videos! Gives a real kind of POV feel that I will absolutely never experience. Keep up the great work, Tim!
Shmee, thank you for this amazing endless content that you got for us. 👌🏽😎
The spec on this is so good.
Would you consider this as a future Shmeemobile?
Shut up
Great content as always Tim... and WHAT a car! Has so much character and a lovely exhaust note, to boot. Bet you've certainly had worse days!
One of the best looking Porsches out there, and the colour combo is perfect for this car!
Woah i just loved every second of it the mighty Speedster and that roads with trees feels driving in heaven thanks Shmee for sharing this amazing video
I just love how shmee really brings you along the ride and how you kind of get to feel like you are in the car with him.
Real gerat vid shmee :)
Some great work Tim, a video a day. Brilliant, John
I love the look of that Porsche in that colour
That speedster looks so good
My favorite 💕 cars . Will keep buying them . Awesome vid 👍👍
Enjoying your daily video but at the same time wondering the amount of hardwork that goes into video making!
I read the title as "This is my new Porsche 911 Speedster".. I was like, finally a Porsche is back!
Such an amazing bit of kit! That roof mechanism is a piece of cake!
I love that you just slowly drive my hometown!
Superb, simply superb. There are some cars that you just know there is nothing better to be found.
That colour looks sooo good
That color is beautiful wow
I wonder if we're ever gonna hear"Hi guys I'm Tim! "
That would be a nice surprise
Talk about breaking the Internet!
Hi guys im Tiiiiiiim!
He did it a good while ago
bryan He did „
Hi Shmee, I’m guys“ on April 1st
Beautiful Porche! The sound is amazing!
I am in love of the spec of that speedster....truly gorgeous and rare
that colour is beautiful, as another comment said well, like a modern classic
This is my favorite 911 porsche I've ever seen. It's a shame that it's a 300k car. Maybe I can get it in 15 years lol.
991 gen 2 is the best 911 ever made!!! Thanks Shmee, as always pure plasure to watch your Video:-)
that color is just perfect!
Damn this is a beautiful car in a great spec.
Also, the 991.2 is a simpler silhouette which I prefer.
Bib wonders if Peugeot will ever release a new edition of the 106 diesel....
106 Speedster on the cards? Home build project!
@@Shmee150 Bib furiously searches the interweb to see if it's possible to squeeze a V8 under the bonnet of his 106 diesel....
@Shaun Davenport Bib salivates at the thought of a 106 that goes faster than 78mph....Unfortunately, Mrs Boulder is 'having none of it'....
@Shaun Davenport God did indeed bless Bib....probably why he's got 5 children....
@@BibTheBoulderTheOriginalOne Sounds like Mrs. Bib carries the boulders. Nuho wha imsain.
Nice 👍 uploading this one Tim respect ✊
Damn shmee I can barely keep up with all the uploads! I love it
That spec is stunning!
Beautiful colour combination 👍
Great video Shane (and nice Daytona ?)
It looks like it's going back to the 70s-80s....in a very, very good way!! I love the two scoops on the back behind the rear window!
It looked sick as soon as I saw it on the top gear magazine!!
Helloooooo me from the past lmao
Wow I never thought I'd see a convertible make me think twice about a GT3. This car is amazing. I enjoy how Porsche kept away from an auto roof, feels more personal and no doubt less needlessly heavy.
My dream car, thanks Shmee to share with us
Thank you for sharing like this content to make and knowledgeable us appreciated
That really is a GORGEOUS light blue.
one of my favourite cars💙
The 356 speedster is the most iconic car ever
What about the carrera GT and F1?
@@LGvLoGs what about the enzo or f40?
Never heard of it
I can name a few:
Lamborghini muira
Lamborghini countach
Ferrari f40
Ferrari testarossa
Vw beetle
Bugatti veyron
Ford Mustang
Ford f150
Can’t think of anymore atm
Tim you are the best!
The gearing is so cool Tim!
That looks sick
Nice to see you driving in the Netherlands. I recognized these roads, because I live nearby. It is called Tholen, in the south west of the Netherlands.
Love the speedster, great colour !
wel een mooi stuk :D
Zeeland heeft mooie wegen! ;)
Haha ik had het zelfde woon op tholen
Great content ! 😎
wow that car is crazy beautiful!
Sup @shmee150 thanks for yet again for another great video ❤❤
That car is simply gorgeous.........drop dead gorgeous...and that engine note....wow.
Shmee should definitely get one!
I didn't use to think Porsches where special compared to bulls and horses until I experienced the G force in a GT3RS. I'm in love with the 992 and Tycan.
Beautiful car, beautiful color. Stripped back no frills pure driving pleasure. with a stick shift. Kick ass.
can we all take a moment and apprieciate shmee for the content hes giving us recently despite the situations we all are in right now:)
Props!!
Thanks Tim excellent video as ever. The new Speedster is a good looking car but still prefer MCL spider with solid roof and why so much roof faffery
Gotta day Tim’s confidence on camera and his charisma have really developed since the USA tour
Huh? He hasn't changed one bit.
Love that color
That Brewster green is brilliant
This car is absolutely gorgeous, combined with the perfect combination of the GT3 engine and a manual. This will be a classic for sure, one of the last great Hurrahs of the ICE era.
Wow Just so much style,
Nice car, the only thing that lets it down is the size of the pillars for the windscreen............ Great sound.
The title reminds me of Doug Demuro lol
I just got done watching him for like three hours, instantly made me think the same 😂
Thhhhhhiiiisssss
Doug is 10x more interesting than shmee
Nobody: (silence)
Shmee: "carefully does It"
Everyone thinks their
"Nobody:
Whoever: "
Comments are brilliant.
They're not. They're lame
@@esfitnesspro2455 no It wasnt mean to be the best joke ever, thats for sure, i Just wrote It to make the most of this comment section that shmee has that i consider to be really healthy and positive overall. Now, i respect your opinion, but we are all here for a good time.
Now thats a dream car
3:13 I am sure those seat patterns are found in the Golf Mk8 GTD, I would have expected a little more for my buck!!!
David Pope are u drunk? It’s a completely different pattern in the gtd
lay off the weed bro
"Long live the manuals, long live the naturally aspirated engines, and long live sports cars when we can buy a car and enjoy driving it for fun"
I have nothing to add to that.
New Subscriber, like your videos and your attitude. greetings
Capital 'THIS' reminds me of someone else....THISSSS
What have you been smoking?
EDIT: Oohhhh, I get it.
@@Kronos0999 doug demuro
lmaoo
Blue dail daytona matches well damn slick move man
brilliant specifications on both 911s
Beautiful
Love that spec.
I have those 918 full carbon bucket seats in my 718 GTS Boxster with 6 speed manual. Absolutely love them. Shame Shmee sold his GT3. A fantastic car.
Perfect Commentary Shmee150 on the Porsche Speedster 👏🏼
I really like the Brewster Green color too. The only nicer dark solid green would be Bentley's Barnato on the Conty that you drove in your US video.
Absolutely to dieeee for
Hi Shmee, do you remember the actual car number of the Speester, I’d like to know if it was painted at the same time as mine as it’s the same color? Great review. An absolutely brilliant car.
Awesome Speedster Shmee150 😎
Speedster will always be my favorite 911
great video, what cameras are you using?
It looks pretty unique I’d probably go for a different colour . My only gripe is I’d want an electric roof . It reminds me of folding my old escort XR3i cabriolet roof down 😎👍
.That stand of trees you drove the Speedster through is a very interesting road. I’ve seen photos of it before. What road is it and where?
I don't care about the manual roof operation but that huge gap triggers me great video as always
Thanks man👍🏻
