What Porsche 911 do you want?
991.2 GT3 with Touring package I want 😅
2024 992 911 ST 😊
@@MrSWW oh lord yes please
Macan S - not one of Porsche’s best sports cars but one of Porsche’s best ever sports utility vehicles 💜 Order placed today!!
@@scowil456 facts. I want that new ev one
Nice car! I understand your reasoning about the gearbox….but the manual is why you choose the T in my opinion….and keep it as light as possible
Agree 100%. Lightweight. I chose due to the options included plus what I can add on top of it. Still lighter than a pdk equivalent in a diff model.
Reminds me of my 1st Porsche. I ordered a 944 in guards red in 1984 I was about your age and just as happy! I kept it until 2000 and driving it never got old. I’ve had a Macan, a Cayenne and 2 991s since. Welcome to the family :)
I appreciate your openness. I am beyond exited.
The is his 1st Porsche 911 - aka dream car. When buying your dream car, you should buy it exactly how YOU want it. That sometimes means compromising to suit your personal requirements, regardless of the car’s ideal ethos. I’m super happy for him!
Thanks so much. Seriously. I was homeless as a kid so this was an emotional thing for me to accomplish.
@@VisionT7 You’re welcome. I too had previously only dreamed of being able to one day own a new Porsche, and yesterday managed to place an order for one. This why I completely understand all of your choices and worthy excitement. Enjoy!
I'm a big porsche fan...love the lifting spoiler
🫣 I just put a ducktail on it
Congratulations man! ❤
Great review. I just finalized my 911T order last week. I, like you, agonized between manual and PDK but chose PDK in the end. This car will live in SW Florida and normal traffic with a manual is a PITA (literally). My vehicle is due to arrive in early August. I can’t wait! Please continue to provide updates on your journey and I’ll share my thoughts on my 911T adventure as well. Cheers!
Let’s gooooooooo. Congrats man. Fyi. I just requested the APR tune data from APR. They are getting it ready so hopefully down the road it will be available for all us 2024 911 Carrera owners. The prior year tune wouldn’t work. That is if you even care lol.
Find me on Instagram @porschtribe. My photographer account is VisionT7 if you want eye candy while you wait lol. Again congrats!!!
Awesome car! Cool options. Nothing wrong with the PDK! My T should be here in July. Ordered mine from North Porsche Houston as well.
Congrats but manual was the way to go. Manual 911s also depreciate less and sell faster.
I get it. I agree but I just loved the extra speed
The glass is “noise insulated” despite being thinner. It blocks more sound from the outside than the standard glass. I have seen a video sound testing so it is proven true. It means you hear less from the outside so you hear more from the inside. With less sound deadening that means it is intended to let you hear the engine and the drivetrain more. This is partly why everyone says the T is very engaging to drive because of the acoustic by design.
@porschetribe note there is a currently a service campaign out on the glass
Yeah it’s a “membrane” coating on it. The lack of insulation paired with the glass makes for a fun ride. I just hate how the glass chips is all
I miss my ‘19 T every day. I have a 992 GTS now and while it’s nice and blistering fast, I liked the 991.2 better. Half the price and the narrow body, pull straps, lightweight glass, all the perf goodies… felt so light and nimble. Best Porsche I’ve ever driven. Enjoy it man. They’re a special spec in my option.
That’s awesome man. Loved the door straps
Damn, stop giving the man so much 💩 about the PDK. It’s his decision. Be glad he shares his beautiful 911 here, not that much content about T’s.
lol. Thx man. I love the pdk. First sports car I’ve had with an auto in a long time.
I am on my 2nd T, 991.2 now 992 - both manuals. Nice spec, but the one thing that makes the T is, well, you know....
Hahaha. Yeah you right. I really liked the options that the T included compared to the base. The extra 10k just made it slightly more appealing then the S. When the tune goes on it should be a baby gts.
Beautiful car! Your first 911 but definitely not your last. I went from a 997.1 C2S manual, to a 992 base, to a 991.2 C2S manual. I respect that you chose a PDK for the wife, people who tell you otherwise haven’t been married before.
lol. Yeah plus we both do long road trips so it’s nice to have the ability to switch drivers. Maybe one day a turbo will be in my future. 😅
😂
Congratulations!! Awesome car. " Drive it like you stole it!"
Great video! I took delivery of my 911 T in December, very similar spec to yours (Racing yellow with PDK, Bose speakers, sport Design bumpers, yellow seatbelts and white clock trims), my 3rd 911 (had a 991.2 4 GTS and 991.2 GT3), despite being the least powerful 911 I have owned, it doesn't feel that slow at all. These cars are getting so expensive, I paid the same amount of money for this car compared to a brand new 911 4 GTS back in 2019.
Omg. The standard speakers are horrible. I bet due to no insulation.
My second T is sitting in Port Emden waiting to get on a ship here to Canada (Ruby Star Neo)
Loved and missed my 19 Carrera T and very excited to have this one...
How exciting. Thats a great color.
Fantastic review and video!
Thank you soooo much
Great little review. I like all the points you made. I reached out to what seemed like an endless number of Porsche dealers over this last month and was able to find one with an available Carrera GTS allocation. I just made my deposit to secure it and I’m so glad I did because it’s crazy hard to find a GTS allocation anywhere. I learned pretty quickly the waitlist thing is a joke.
You lucky dog. Love the gts. Curious if it’s going to be all digital instrument cluster. I like mine now cuz of analog rpm.
@@VisionT7 yes, it’s a 992, so it will be exactly the same dash layout as your T. I really did not want to go down the 992.2 route with the hybridization being added. One thing I’m a little stuck on is whether to go with full bucket seats/rear seat delete or the 4-ways. Obviously the full buckets with rear delete will be lighter, but I don’t know how much. Although I imagine the bigger benefit is the secure hold and more connected feeling with the car. I do have my eye on the club leather in truffle brown with chalk stitching if I go with the 4-ways.
@@RB-xv4si I am sooooo happy with the 18 way seats. So comfortable. But be honest with yourself. Are you tracking it? Does it really matter the weight savings. Pick what you think you will use it for. If it’s not a track car then focus on how you would daily it.
@@VisionT7 I get what you’re saying. It will be a weekend car for me, so I’m more inclined to see it as a toy than something useful to get me to work every day. But I may change my mind. The 4-way sport seats plus would be a nice compromise between lightweight and luxury. Freeze date is May 15th, so there’s a little time.
Love the RS Spyder wheels. They look great in titanium grey on your 911 T.
Thank you so much. I’m super happy with them.
6:59 Hello fellow T owner! My T is coming in July, I also have owned a 991.2 T and loved it. I specc'ed my car in Gentian Blue Metallic with the manual, the bucket seats and the carbon fiber roof as the main differences to yours. I also chose Guards Red accents for the speedometer and the clock, the fire extinguisher and the red seat belts. :-) Just a little info: Even the manual T has the "Drive Mode" button on the steering wheel. Enjoy your T!
lol. Yes I know about that selector. I meant to say that button. Congrats on the car. It’s an epic ride. Truly love it
Awesome car and color combo choice
Thx so much. Super happy with it
Very nice car. Enjoy it. After my M2 G87 this is one of my favourite. Love to see some more videos about Your T. Regards from Germany. 🎉
Thank you so much. I plan to really drive this car. Hopefully more content to come.
looks like you have the optional side skirts as well🔥
Good eye. I put those on after. GT3 style from sun coast. Stops a lot of debris
Owned a GT3RS and agree, too much for reality driving. If you are into bragging rights, buy a cup car and be broke. If you want to drive your car, buy a 911T. That said, the dash is higher than previous generations and the car has wider hips that you'd expect for a base 911. Rear camera is excellent, but plenty of power and the modern dash is very up to date (for once). Wish they added carbon fiber over the interior, but it is ok as spec'd by most in base models.
Hey man, thanks for sharing. Where did you get the fire extinguisher setup? Thanks!
So that was all ordered from Porsche. I believe your dealer can order it. Not sure how much, but it was $400 for me during the build spec. I think lol
I have a current 911 T manual rear steering no comparison so much more fun than the 911 PDK that was a 18 .. enjoy
Nice man. I love the rear steer.
In 3 days I hit my freeze date for my T. Keep going back and forward between the S wheels and these Spyder RS wheels. The Spyders add almost 10lb of unsprung weight..
Do what makes you happy. Unless you are a track monster. Who cares 🤷♂️
@@VisionT7 yes, you are absolutely right. Love your car man. Red looks amazing on the T.
@@PQR5CHE I’m super happy with it and hope you will be too. It’s such a great car
Then stay with the S wheels. Lighter is always better (except when it comes to manual vs PDK). This is especially true of unsprung mass.
@@RB-xv4siSo what transmission is your favorite?
You spec’d yours very close to mine! Same color, tach, seat belts, etc. I opted for a manual and the sport front fascia (left the rear original). I’m expecting delivery in the next month!
Did you opt for RAS? I decided not to
How fun man. It’s a blast. Congrats
Dream car. I won't dog you decision, but only change I would do is well... you probably already know 🤣
lol. I get it man. I sold my terminator Cobra which was stick. I miss it so much but I’m super happy. 911 has been the dream car. Maybe a turbo s one day.
The manual version brings a drive mode selector in the steering wheel. However there is no maximum response button.
Man I caught that after. I meant to say the button. Lol
Fantastic car. Now just needs a Litchfield conversion. PDK is a fabulous gearbox even if it doesn't offer the engagement of a manual.
Much appreciated. Super happy with it
I have 2023 with PDK tuned with sport cats and titanium exhaust , and E85 fuel 560 hp at the crank insane speed really a different car about 0-60 flat 3 second car
You should protect the windshield
What tune? Think about apr. I really think I’ll just do tune and nothing else.
With chipped windshields changing glass a hassle?
My manual 911T has the same selector, what you have that I dont is the button on the selector. I'm in Boerne (San Antonio).
Dude I messed that part up lol. I meant the button. I’m in San Marcos. Check out estate coffee on Sundays in SA. It’s the Porsche meet up spot. Well I guess it’s grown to other stuff but it’s a good time.
@@VisionT7 I was there 2 weeks ago, saw your T. It now has a ducktail! Mine was the white one with the classic wheels. Small world. I'll see you there next month. Are you doing fiesta texas C&C saturday? 0630-0930 this year and they moved us to a different area. Would really like to get a photo with your rig, mine and the blue T that was at Estate. I'll bring a camera just in case we all make it. -Chris
@@VisionT7 I’m driving my T to Estate on Sunday. COTA has a big one coming up on Fathers Day.
@@6172crew1 I’m trying to go to Estate.
What tune will you be going with? APR?
I've heard that some Porsche dealers can do an APR tune for your car and also keep the factory warranty?
I spoke to several dealerships. All were ok with a tune. If I had headers an tons of other stuff then no. And yeah I like apr right now.
@@VisionT7I looked at APR’s website and didn’t see anything for the T..
@@PQR5CHE it’s the base Carrera tune. Same same
I am looking to getting the dealer tune for my 992 T 2023 manual. It takes the hp to 445 and torque to 460 nm? Anyone do this?
Dealer tune?
Champion Motorsports keeps the warranty
Did you change out the side markers? Nice.
Yeah my dealer did it as a surprise. Looks way better.
@@VisionT7 as a gift I hope!
@@VisionT7 did you get a box of keys? With crest pins?
@@qrtrscale ummm no lol. Is that a thing? The company did send me two 911 writing pens and a model car. Really cool
@@qrtrscale dealer gave me the side markers, two great martini race jackets, key chain and a red key for my car. Really cool. Then the stuff the brand sent was awesome as well.
My black T is at the German port for a month now. 😬
A month!!!!! Wow mine was about a week. Took another 12 days to get to Houston port.
Can you order regular glass at added cost?
Nope. The windshield is regular glass. All the rest is the gt3rs glass.
I’m surprised to hear you say that the lightweight glass lets more noise in the cabin. I believe the configurator identifies it as lightweight/noise insulated glass. Go figure.
Has a coating on it to reduce but still louder
Too bad you can’t shift like a sequential like my 4RS. Looks like you have to use the paddles
Yup. All paddles. That little shifter is kinda funny. I do like the paddles but it’s hard to track them when hitting those corners.
Got mine yesterday too. GT Silver, matte black wheels, PDK. Pls don’t do the wing, not right on the T more suited for a GT version.
Soooo I did a duck tail. Looks really clean.
@@VisionT7I’ve seen that. Well done. Photos?
I think the Aerokit on any Carrera looks amazing. Makes the car look more purposeful; and at the same time, it’s much more elegant looking than the wing on a GT3.
If it has “plenty of power “, then why do you want a tune?
Plenty of power for 99% of people. I left a cobra an would like to have some of that power back but I could def live with it if I couldn’t tune.
Can I afford to buy a Porsche 911 carrera S if I make around 250k usd a year
No, just because of the fact you have to ask
Everyone situation is different. Have to check your budget but yes you will get approved if you have good credit.
Switching off with the mention of PSK.
lol. Ok. But it’s just an option. Still a great car
Let the haters hate. Get whatever tf you want! You are buying it not them. You want PDK get it. You want stick get it. Do not like the "you lost me at PDK" clowns bother you.
I'm wondering if some ppf or something will help with the chips. Did you say it's just the rear or the front as well that's chip prone?
PS the drive select is available on any car with the chrono pack. Manual is just missing the sport response button in the center.
Looking more and more Ferrari-ish.
No manual? Lame.
Not lame. Faster and fits my needs is all. I love a good stick but not this time is all.
He lost me at PDK
Good.
Not watching now PDK? You want a fast car off the line buy a Tesla
Hard pass. I want the complete package
