    Porsche pricing is crazy

      Yes, it is so much cheaper, don’t know how they manage to achieve this.

    We reckon the manual Carrera T is the pick of the new 911 range – partly because it keeps the price respectable but also because modern 700bhp supercars are becoming just too fast to enjoy on the road! 🤷‍♂

    Do you agree? Would you take this manual 911 over a PDK Turbo S? Let us know your choice in the comments below! 👇

    Cup holders?
    If I’ve spent that much money on a car nobody will be drinking in it

    Why spend £200k on a car, when you have to beg a dealer to please let you buy one? VAG can do what they want, I’m never buying one new.

    Well, the walnut knob is very nice, but I’d much rather have a walnut whip 😮😮😮😮

    Fabulous review ❤. I bought the convertible 911 T, done 6,000 miles almost all of them with the roof down. It’s nothing short of phenomenal, it catapults out of corners, handles superb, sounds great, stops great and looks great. This is my fifth and definitely the best I’ve ever owned. I just love ❤️ it. 😊

    I definitely think that Porsche 911 is the ultimate sports car currently on sale with their whole lineup, especially now that Audi R8, Jaguar F-Type,… are gone.
    Maybe closest to 911 is the new Aston Martin Vantage or actually Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray?.
    For me still the best Porsche 911 version was simply awesome Dakar, hope we get it back again 🤟🤩.
    Great video and keep it up in 2026😊

    German/ manual transmission/ convoluted cup holders = perfection.

    A good review and one that resonates. I have an older 400bhp 911 and I agree that this feels about right for UK roads – I’ve had more powerful cars and they’re a bit unusable to be honest. You can never get anywhere near their performance potential, but with 400bhp you can floor it occasionally. The split personality thing is most definitely a thing too – docile and easy and then fairly manic when pushed.

    They would charge for air in the tyres if they could.

    Great review! No more power needed on the public road and you’re right to say that the stiffer damper setting is the more comfortable on undulating British roads (the standard setting allows for too much vertical movement). The T’s only real weakness is tyre noise, but it shares this with with every 992 generation 911.

    Good review- more regular Porsche content would be welcomed 👍

    Loving the 1980s strip on the bottom of the door on this Volkswagen – matches the 90’s coke dealer wheels. Particularly impressed that you can request coloured strips on the dash – and the passenger gets a Temu Cup Holder for free ! Unfortunately, at £120k that would encroach on the owner’s annual Viagra budget.
    Noisy inside? That’s not a valid complaint – as we all know, sound-deadening materials are so heavy 🤣😅😂

    I have driven a number of 992.1s and any Carrera over 450hp was too much for public roads. The GT cars are essentially track cars. The base 911 was nice but felt like a grand tourismo. The T felt and sounded like a sports car. I’ve had mine for two years now and it seems to get better every time I drive it. No plans to upgrade.

    I had a base 991.2 7 speed manual and felt it was too capable and fast for the roads. The only time I enjoyed driving it were on the track, and during a closed hill climb. I had much more fun on the road in my older 997.2’s and 981 base Boxster 6 speed manuals.

    I prefer the 992.1 C2 RWD with no turbo lag and has the perfect amount of power and it’s one of the best 911 ever made so far. The 992 generation has a combination of refinement and right amount of power for enjoyment. The 992.2 is nice but I prefer the analog dials and the classic turn on power key.
