I’ve wanted a 911 since I was 10. 36 years later I still yearn to have one & I will make it happen. Until then, I thoroughly enjoyed the virtual experience.
Chase the dream
Get an older one. They are fantastic
Unless you're in a lot of debt just do it.
get a used older model lol
Stay committed to the dream & you’ll get it man! Hope you get to drive your friends around in it soon
Run the whole canyon in 2nd gear up to 70+mph. Completely nutty. Love it.
Seems pretty tall if you like shifting.
The faster the rpm, the better you climb hills . 4th gear or higher is only for flat roads. Even my old Corolla 1.8 could handle 4500 to 5000 rpm all the way up the Grapevine. I would fly past people that were trying to climb it in high gear , and I was still driving it north of 350,000 miles and it still ran like new. Lower rpm on hill climbs would actually decrease engine life. Too much strain.
How many kilometers in 70 miles?
@@royalefan2264 multiply by 1.61.
@@jonboy602 112 km. I'm from Ukraine and live now in Australia and they both use the metric system, including km, unlike America
Even for being on the lower end of the range of 911s, the 911T Is awesome to see from Porsche. Theyve got every 911 owner covered. As long as you can afford it, there's a 911 that is going to be the best daily or weekend car you ever buy.
I see Porsche as a company doing a lot of things right. The last 10 years have been momentous for Porsche. The Macan was a huge success and they didn't compromise on Porsche philosophy on driving experience. That's why we can have cars like this.
There are people paying off $100k on a diesel pickup, and I don't understand it but I say let them have their fun. It makes the Porsche lineup look reasonably priced for what you get. And that's how you can justify buying a Porsche! If driving is something you love, life is too short to drive boring cars.
This looks like a ton of fun, honestly, and it sounds better than I expected. Great color, too!
All the 911's with the sport exhaust sound the same, from the base to the GTS...or very very close at the least
Loved this drive! One of the most enjoyable videos, for sure.
your videos are the only thing giving me joy these days. Thanks for the regular uploads! Appreciate them.
The only thing dude? I hope that you mean that jokingly.
You fancy a spinning elbow, dude?? 😅
I've been there. Take care of yourself
hey man if you need help let me know! but yes the videos are great 💯
have you tried some Zaza? If you think watching his videos is fun, wait till you watch his videos while high!
A beautiful car being beautifully driven!!
You try a Porsche, you want to change to nothing else. The driving experience is unique.
I worked at Porsche in Weissach as a student over 20 years ago. I am somewhat emotionally attached to the brand. I am getting a 911 some day in the not too far future. I might be able to afford one in a couple of years.
I hope you get your Porsche!
A good gar. Balanced minimalism in design. And it was a pleasure to see the perfect usage of the gear shifter - like a proper gear shifter, not a handrail.
Thank you for this great review.
992 Carrera T is a compelling argument. For around $130k-140k you can into one of these or a used 991.1 GT3. I can't afford either.
I'd go for the 991.1 GT3.
Gorgeous car. Thanks for the video.
A family friend has a 911 GTS in red and manual
It’s an amazing drivers car and an absolute blast
Thanks for the honesty.
Great POV. Fun ride.
Amazing machine! Really cool video!
Great video. I cancelled my order for a 992 T to buy a 991.1 for half the price, and your comments about the 991.1's greater sound and drama was right on. I don't need it to be any faster! Plus I got a not-black interior!
the grapes are sour, over the fence. We all know.
Love it ! , sounds amazing
Now THIS is a car worth appreciating 🔥
Yeah absolutely enough. You don't really need a faster car than that.
Whoever says money doesn’t buy happiness is definitely not a car enthusiast 😂 awesome car.
I think i just found my dream car! and can we please appreciate how well he drove this car! Amazing car amazing driver Amazing video!
This almost cured me of my depression, thanks for the great vid
amazing video!
Got mine a few weeks ago, best driving experience I’ve had in a while.
Good for you man.
Manual or PDK?
Wish more people would just get into the highs of driving and working out. You don't need fentanyl. You don't need Marijuana.
I purchased a 2022 Carrera S because it had a manual and the T wasn’t out yet but would have been ok with a T. Great review!
Great honest video! I’m on my 6th 911 over the last 30 years. I’ll probably not give uo my 991.1 dark blue, manual. Still the TT Carrera’s seem like an awesome drive!
how can i achieve the goal of owning multiple 911s
Great driving👍
Sounds so good. I’m going after a Porsche for my next car whenever that will be. Might take awhile lol. I’m enjoying my new type r which is a totally different type of car but I’ve really fallen in love with Porsche.
great day when theTopher posts!
That means almost everyday is a great day! ;)
Respect the pebble avoiding etiquette. The green looks so good
Hilarious, i was just thinking yesterday when you were going to drop the T Manual POV
Very cool, thanks!
That looks awesome 😎👍👍👍
Love to see some savvy driver using turn signals even busy with performing speedy turns 👏
It's like saying "sorry" when you fart alone in a room. Ok, but unnecessary.
Would you like to see turn signals on NASCAR as well? Makes as much sense
@@ziggy149 ah yes because NASCAR is run on public roads. Apples to oranges.
@@almeida8x Read through the conversation again. Of course it’s apples to oranges. That was my point. Makes no sense what they said
@@aryayavz4143 good when it comes to cars to keep habits ingrained
@theTopher - cayman GTS or 911T? From a driving experience perspective ?
Oh boy a manual!! These animals are a rare sight
It sounds better than the other turbo powered 992s - I hope Porsche learn something from this one so that the 992.2 could sound more like this one.
i just wanna say u are a really good driver u shift as if it was an automatic transmisson
Loved the video! Will their be more Raptor R vids coming soon?
thank you….
Even as a little boy I was enthusiastic about the 911, now at 60 I drive one...😁
I find it very interesting that you just drove the 997GT3 - so which of the 2 would be in your dream garage?
Awesome video just curious are you filming that on Mulholland drive?
What a perfect weekend road car.
Your driving is very good bro
The nice part about the seven speed is that the first six are nice and close and allow a great low end spacing, and when you are on the highway, you can turn less than 2000rpm at +70mph, and the fuel economy you get from that... So, rare that you do spirited driving with 7th gear engaged; spend all your time in the first six, and it gates really intuitively.
Love the color!
The “T” is the right 911 spec for an enthusiast. But for a bit less money, a Cayman GTS 4.0 caters to a more hard-core driver and adds the inherent balance of a mid-engine and the naturally-aspirated response and sound. The tech isn’t as current, but having rewatched your review of a 2021 GTS 4.0, it’s probably even better for sheer driving pleasure (since the T only has 2 seats anyway).
2023 Porsche 911 manual. Perfection.
just took my 992s mt for a blast what a car
This is great middle ground Porsche to own. I’m in love.
Lovely car, great review. Shame I’ll probably never be able to afford one! Oh well, I’ll just keep enjoying my old E36 M3.
Great drive, thanks. I own a 991 in germany. I like such roads. I think, the speed is in km/h, or?
Okay - this or the Cayman GTS 4.0? I've watched your GTS 4.0 video probably 40 times, and am in line for an upcoming allocation at my dealer. You really seemed to love that car, I wish you mentioned a comparison here. Thanks for the great videos.
fantastic road!
Tough day at the office for the Toph!
I just saw Tedward do a video here with the RX-7! Super cool to see you guys in the same place!
Where is this at?
When was this filmed, I know the canyon's conditions are a little bad after the heavy rain.
FInally! My personal favourite 992
Would you prefer a lower sound deadening 911 or normal, all else equal?
This is just a very nice car to have for guys who want a performance car with some great luxury options.
Purely amazing haha
Nice driving! Hard to imagine a better car for this piece of road
A 2 seater softop sub 200bhp for $10k-$20k lol. The typical twisty road sports car. What do you need 400bhp for here? Lets be real, this is nice but it is extravagant
I dont know if it works with this model too but you can change the cupholder with a case for keys etc.
This is awesome
fun facT: the tradition of the ignition being on the left comes from the le mans start where pilots would have to run to their cars and start as fast as possible.
Still not sure if I'm a fan of 911 since I've never driven one, but this one looks kinda cool
Me in my brz being extremely envious watching him hit 70 in 2nd gear......
If I’m not mistaken Porsche decided to makes of the 911’s now with turbos pretty cool if you ask me
nice sound
I expected the wheel to be smaller and sharper than this. Still looks mechanically similar to regular cars. I guess it's more about the pedals.
When he opened the center console I thought I saw a little hand reaching back up!
--it's very early...
Hi TheTopher, is the manual a bad choice for LA traffic?
The soundactuator in this ev sounds like a real car.
So funny to watch this car driven with the really low speed limit on this roads. Driving this piece flat out is another story.
damn that looks like fun... I'm jealous
I don't know if it's as prevalent in person, but there is something seriously distracting to me about the reflective piece on the turn signal stock.
Why not to say that it's was, and still the perfect combination of the racing Porsche's drivers. #LONGLIFETOSTICK
Thoughts on the functionality of the non-leather seats compared to their full leather counterparts?
Alacantra supposedly won't show surface cracking with age... we'll see I guess
The new Ford Bronco also comes with a 7-speed manual transmission.
Have you tried the Cayman handling on the same road?
Idk man but love just how the steering wheel looks😁
How do you install gopro 11 but have such a nice pov angle? can i know?
As a 2018 "T" owner this review captures the magic of the T experience. It's the most fun you can have in a modern 911. GT3 may be faster and sound better but on normal driving roads the T is just more fun.
Your model sounds better doesn’t it?
@@netcrashYTI guess "more fun" is subjective. If less power and less sound is your thing than yes, the T is more fun than a GT3. I’d take the GT3 or even a 443hp S with a few upgrades over the base engine T. I guess my idea of more fun is different than @jbgoogmd.
That road 😍
are you doing a revmatch, or is the car doing it for the driver?
Wish I had the cash for it. This spec seems about perfect imo.
Wow it looks like a NA car when you floor it virtually no turbo lag.
Gear knob is like in old VW Golf or Jetta
I wonder who was the genius who decided to place the cup holder right behind the stick shift?! I guess you can only place a drink there when you’re not driving!
But does it have a spare tire?
“Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Michigan anymore.¨😉
Nice IS300 in the background
Has this got a lower seating position than 718 or GR86?
If there is one car manufacturer I want in my garage is definitely Porsche
what camera are you using to record this ?
Did you find this or the turbo S more satisfying
+1 for the Speedy
That sounds very similar to my 2006 Cayman S with a 3.8.
For that kinda money, I would get a mustang gt manual to have fun on the weekends and then spend the rest on a three year old mint condition audi s6 for daily.
Why the GT3 comes with 6 Speed Manual and this with 7 Speed Manual?
