- There are few cars as fast as the new Porsche 911 Turbo S, which is available as a coupe or cabriolet. In this review, our resident racing driver Rebecca Jackson reviews the latter, but does the car's monster performance make it the pick of the 911 range?

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.
I only come here for the Rebecca!
Absolutely great review, lacks the banana test though
You're amazing Rebecca. It's such a delight watching you.
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
Rebecca, you're a shining star... Keep up the good work! Ciao...
she is as happy as a kid with a new toy!
I love this colour! Really makes the Turbo stand out!
beautiful colour
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!
One if these things overtook me last week, I've never seen anything like it the can shift!!
Yay, let's review a convertible in the rain!
That said, it is the UK
+SilverS Haha lol
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 ;)
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..?
you are superb keep reviewing cheers
Rebeca great video but how comfortable is the car on British roads
Is there a Porsche in this video ? I didn't notice it.
They both also make an appealing sound. Rebecca's cute accent makes a pleasant combo with the deep, dark but suithing , comforting straight six.
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?
I like the color
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.
Nice job!❤
what camera were used to film this review?
beccaaa
Smooth...
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).
that color 💝
DITTO...Miami Blue!!
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.
just beautiful in every way!!!! the cars not bad either.
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!
Toothpaste blue
Is it not fuse blue
its Miami blue
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
The Targa is my favorite, it is the only one I would choose in the whole range.
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.
Gorgeous.
Does Rebecca come with the car?
NAUGHT to SIXTY!! I'm in love!!LOL
Good lord this woman! 😍
you always seem to test convertibles in the rain!
Bought one thanks to Rebecca!
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.
This is the couple perfect for me! Rebecca and turbo S
Rebecca ❤️😍
Would love to see Rebecca team up with Matt Watson again, over at car wow
Is that miami blue in 16? If so, the camera does is ZERO justice. In person miablue is amazing...
Rebecca for Top Gear presenter.
No chance.
rebecca...I fall in love with you every time. :'(
Add a D in your name
Wow; Rebecca; just the best for Car Review; just beautiful!
Needs a track review. ;)
nice car
So did Bush so this car?
Nice colour!
That colour is just ghastly! 0 - 60 in just 3 seconds, wow!!! Great performance.
Rebecca is the best
Bravo the Porsche...
WOW!!!! 5 ft 4 and a half of loveliness 😍
alongside Christina Schmid, the only other lady actually qualified to drive and review this car on the tube.
But, as always, the rain in UK.
I think about the 911 much the same as I think about Rebecca: believe I'm supposed to like it more than I do.
Gorgeous car... JUST STOP LEANING ON IT!!!
Gorgeous. Car is OK too.
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.
aha i had an ad for the 919 before this
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.
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.
"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
Lo que es de mal gusto son los 4 leds por faro delantero, no se integran a la línea del vehículo... no corresponde.
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.
cool
Baby, damn ...
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.
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...
papoopa5800 lmao that's some funny shit man...😂😂😂
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
Does England ever have sun?
Nope.
Nope.
The wedding ring is a bummer
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 !
0:23 SAVAGE.
9 grand more than the Turbo S coupe? Whaaat!
her voice is more like a high pitched squeal.
Sexy af.
it would get annoying on the daily, and nagging haha
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
Damn I’m usually able to focus on the car but not today.
I've learned, that hers are called "knock knees".
UsperKrephus in my country they're called k-leg
Be my wife Rebecca!
ill take one in white with black ascents hard top. this blue is a little bit barbie.
headroom is limitless, just what you want when you are 5 foot 4& a half.
you r so pretty i love you
Never understood the need for a 500+ hp convertible!
It seems like every review she does it's raining. wtf?
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.
Advise change that old school TV style, this just isn't what you want on CZcams.
"can get quite tiring"
Did Rebecca just make her first funny joke? xD
why on earth would u buy a convertible in a country where it rains 364 out of 365 days in a year????? why
we love natural asp. porsches. hate turbos !
the ultimate car turbo s what pathetic review was looking forward to this as well
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.
1:00 yet it should NOT be counted as a drawback on a car like this.
If it flipped over, those back seat passengers would be flattened or decapitated
No practicality review?
Sounds like Brittany Spears doing Top Gear.
Why would you bring such a beautiful car and driver to a wet, muddy farmyard?
