Rory , great review again , I have the coupe version of the GTS with the Pano roof and PDK and I absolutely love it . Coming from a purist Porsche 911 background I was not sure I could adapt to the civilisation of the 991 but my gosh when I drove the GTS with that sports exhaust on and sport selected .... it really is on another level. With regard to the electric steering ,unless you are a very very experienced track day driver I would challenge anyone to notice the difference . If anybody watching is unsure as to get one of these please go and have a test drive ...you will buy it ..
So happy you got top gear - really looking forward to it. Quite the upgrade - 26000 to roughly 350 million viewers . it will be great for you to work with the other presenters as well. Good luck and all the best with your show 😀
+clanmac66 I probably thought the same as you before I drove one extensively, but now it's my favourite 911 looks-wise. Panameras are awesome :) Cheers Archie
Excellent review! Nice talking dynamic, shots & cuts and driving scenes! I couldn't agree more with your comments about the targa. Do you think you would rather have the PDK over the manual? Would be glad if you could check out our channel :)
Great review. Looks great, but just under powered. A GTS should be doing 0 - 62mph in 3.6 - 3.8 seconds. If it had more performance I would seriously consider getting one. and the new 2021 version, is actually no better & is £120k :(
This is one of the most beautiful cars I have ever seen!
Totally agree!!!! I had an 85 Targa which had a manual roof and I loved it and this is 100 X’s cost let.
This car is absolutely gorgeous! Great review and video.
Rory's metaphors just makeme laugh out loud! Excellent review again!
Quality review chap.

Correct. I did and dropped my brilliant 4S almost instantly Gen 1 PDK GTS Coupe!
You were awesome on TopGear man, great work there and great video here as well!
brilliant review, very insightful, the job on TG was well deserved.
I love your reviews... And the 911 is one of my favourite cars. Combining the two made for a great watch! :)
+Martin-Alexandre Beaulieu Glad to hear you enjoyed it Martin-Alexandre!

Beautiful car! Please do more Porsche reviews :)
another brilliant review. good job Rory
+Chadwick 1991 Such good taste, Chadwick!
+Rory Reid This is great! Plans to do a 2016 Jaguar XJR soon?
+Rory Reid congratulations on getting the top gear job well done.
Your reviews are brilliant.
best review ! im gonna buy this next week ! thanks !
Still have the car? Cheers.
Great review! Keep up the great work!
i like your reviews, keep up the good work.
Great review Rory. You are without doubt one of the best car reviewers out there.
+SunsetNova I try. Thanks for watching sunsetnova
What a guy! I love his videos
Porsche has improved this even more, the 2019 model is more powerful 😁
You made my decision for me... I’m gonna GO with this model...
get a 19 or if you can wait till the 20s come out. body change is AMAZING, plus another power boost to 500hp.
Great intro Speech!!!!
Great review!
Great job, i´ve really enjoyed the video (many times, by the way). And nice music, can i ask you about the tracks? Thanks from Spain!
hahaha the launch in the beginning was sick!!!
Awesome review...thanks
Awsome review as always, this thing is so beatiful and different. Just one thing, the redline is at 7800, not 9000.
+Fusay34 Thanks Fusay34
Love you reviews. You tell it like it is, please keep being honest in your reviews. Other TH-cam reviewers give every car a glowing review.
+SolidCopy1 Thanks Solid. I promise to always keep it real :)
I totally loved The Mike Tyson / Bruce Lee Analogy!
When I first saw you in the back seats I laughed hard!
Beautiful camera work
+Arun Narasimha thanks Arun.
Great review again Mr Rory, although I still think the Targa is a bit too retro. But, then I love the Panamera so who am I to talk? lol
+clanmac66 I probably thought the same as you before I drove one extensively, but now it's my favourite 911 looks-wise. Panameras are awesome :) Cheers Archie
0:53 nice squirrel
incredible Review.You realy have a gerat sense to fascinate.I would love to meat you to get inspired from your smartness.
I like it for the Bruce Lee comparison. Great!
The only problem (and its a big one) with this car is that its a PDK automatic. The manual trans option is much better. Thanks.
great review.👍👍can you please review mclaren 570s?? thank you
I still think I'd still rather buy the normal GTS. Great review though!
+UzzyFuzzyy LOL. I don't know about that.
Excellent review! Nice talking dynamic, shots & cuts and driving scenes! I couldn't agree more with your comments about the targa. Do you think you would rather have the PDK over the manual? Would be glad if you could check out our channel :)
+HeelandToe.Blog Thanks guys. I like the manual but I prefer the PDK. It's absolutely epic. Keep up the good work
At 4:55, it does not redline at 9000 RPM. I would know; its at 7600 RPM. You are thinking of a GT3.
At 6:27, it also "blips" the throttle in the 7-speed manual as well when in the Sport Plus mode. By the way, time to get some gas at 5:59.
That is a stunning looking car. But for me if I was in a position to buy a 911 it would have to be the 911 carrera GTS with manual transmision.
This guy is awesome
Great intelligent review bro. Are you from Nigeria!
Very nice channel. Happy to discover that now... maybe too late X-D..
nice review for a super nice car #need
Is this one better or turbo?
not a fan of the targa, but great review
You should review an m6
+mister khan ok!
😍😍my dreamcar
i feel like %60 of this review was just you telling us the negatives and the down sides to this car
Was that a paul walker reference 'hit a tree' ? Peak
Not at all. It's a hitting a tree reference.
+Alias DMG lol.
Porsche make the best targas in the world
Trouble gettin the 1st gear in..?
No! ;)
As these cars are made in Germany- they must be very cheap there. Probably a fraction of the price to anywhere in the world.
Do you are driving a convertible in rain
Like a boss!
* are you driving a convertible in the rain? / do you drive a convertible in the rain?
+RecombuCars congrats on top gear!
Rory, do a rarri!
+Dean Raytheon Ok :)
Great review. Looks great, but just under powered. A GTS should be doing 0 - 62mph in 3.6 - 3.8 seconds. If it had more performance I would seriously consider getting one. and the new 2021 version, is actually no better & is £120k :(
No bigger than a sunroof, what a plank, it's miles bigger compared to the opening area of a sunroof!!!!
Why do these videos have such low views?
FUUUUUUUUUUUU** MEEEEEE!!! I LOVE THAT CAR!!!
+hunyango it's pretty nice eh!
Make your own luck, buddy.
=)
The only friend that can fit in the backseats are your war veterans
rory you're an inspiration to young black English kids keep up the good work
I'm glad you say so. That's part of the plan. Thanks P.
Still looks fucking boss
+benjamin wynne yes
For those born with the gift of a head ha ha.
like Bruce Lee lol
This car doesn't have to make sense, it's sex on wheels and that buys you a lot of leeway.
I prefer the Jag over this
Goof
The roof is as slow as your slurred speech. #20secs
Excellent review!!!
