Casually going from an 812 superfast to a GTC4Lusso and now ditching those for a 991 GTS.

Although I have been a Porsche fan since I was 10, an Italian friend who was born in Italy, lives in Italy, owned a car parts business in Italy once told me in Italian, "Ferraris are beautiful to look at, but if you want a real sports car, get a Porsche". His words, not mine. I now have a mint 993 and a 991.1 GTS, both in manuals. When you have the right cars, you tend to keep them much like my BMW motorcycle, now at 30+ years of ownership.

Love the intro, sold the Ferrari Estate and the Beemer Touring because I needed a bit more space....bought a 991.2!!

3:40 its not like you need to change a wheel simply because the GTS or any other 911 does not come with a spare wheel. The forums make such a big deal of Centerlocks when they are not an issue at all. I mean how often do you need to remove a wheel...to do a brake flush, change the spark plugs. Thats every 2 to 4 years.

Lovely motor bar the wheel colour

Hi Sam, just looking at the GTS models at the minute 991.1/.2 but I agree, I’m not a massive fan of the black wheels either so will go GT Silver. What did you decide in the end… did you just repaint the wheels or change them?! Any issues with the break dust. Thank you 👍🏻

Nice! Not me unfortunately today

I have had two 911s with the center-lock rims, OMG they are such a problem when you get a nail in the tire. Never ever will I get a Porsche with those center-lock wheels. I was hit head-on by a truck in my 2016 Porsche 911 GTS. Took me 3 years to get back to normal after a broken neck and broken lower back and both bones in my leg were broken. 5 surgeries later I purchased my 17th Porsche; a 991.2 Turbo 2019. I wanted a Turbo S but Porsche would not allow my order to go through with the 5-spoke non-center-lock wheels so I settled on the Turbo. Love the 5 spoke mag rims with the normal 5 lug-nuts. Good video and I owned 3 GTSs in past. They were all amazing daily driver cars. Also prefer the PDK over manual especially in Washington DC traffic. My Corvettes are manual but looking forward to the new ZO6 with Tremec Dual-clutch. Like your color blue. I will never get another steering wheel in alcantara because it gets matted down and looks awful after 6 months. Hard to restore it if you don’t stay on top of the care of the alcantara or now called “race-dex”. Enjoy your GTS. I think the 991.2 GTS is the best thus far daily Porsche! I do really enjoy my 991.2 Turbo as a daily driver. After a tune & headers & intake my car is 720 hpw at the crank. Extremely fast, quick & drivable‼️ Cheers bring on more videos!!!

Oh wow, sounds like you had a rough time for a while. Glad you’re better now. I totally agree, Centre locks are a pain (I even bought my own torque wrench so I could take the car wherever to change stuff) and alcantara steering wheels…fml

Congratulations. Lovely semi sensible sports daily.

Best car for the money you can buy. Hands down. I have a 991.2 Carrera 4 GTS for the traction, this one is lighter. There is something to be said for both versions. I like the light bar on the 4 as well.

Agree that a leather wheel is better than alcantara. I do however like the black wheels. Good review.

Yeh very very nice fella, huge Porsche fan and I have the 2011 997 GTS, the original :) I wanted it from the first time it was released, couldve got a 992 but this is what I wanted and I didnt want to get a 992 and still be looking at 997s if you know what I mean. Anyway nice blue it looks bright and lively, I agree with the wheels, centre lock is a bit much for just a daily road car so I waited and got one with the 5 stud option which turns out is quite rare as I dont see any on the road with anything other than centres, its good as I can get some winter wheels and have more variety when it comes to choice and I can swap them over myself. Again agree with the lower ride height, I have to brake for the majority of speed ramps which is a bit irritating. Did your 991.2 come with the raised suspension button? Not sure if it was an option in your version tbh. personally the Bose in mine is a bit pants, I grew up in the DNB era so I need punchy bass and its not even close, mine has the pcm carplay hack but still glitchy though. Cruise control is a good option but again no one specs it, Im getting the retrofit at around £700 from Porsche but its been on back order seems forever. In all fairness you made a decent choice enjoy her.....oh and forgot to say, the centre locks can be removed and the 5 stud module replacing them, its not a much of a faf tbh

The annoying thing for me with PDK in the Uk is the direction you push the stick to go into manual mode. Here we push it away from us but in left hand drive countries like Germany for instance they pull it closer to them for your more engaging manual shifts. Yes I can still reach it but it would be better if they reversed it for us brits. I have a 997.2 C2S PDK and the Bose is pretty crap to be honest. No where near as good as the middle upgrade in my old 2011 X3. Maybe it’s the insulation?

I have one of these cars and although a good review the mistakes grated on my sense of accuracy. The centre button on the mode button is 20 seconds and a Carrera s cannot be specified to GTS level the horsepower is different and the suspension setup makes it a different prospect.

@sammooresphoto

Thanks for the feedback. You can however spec a power kit for the c2s that bumps the power up to GTS levels but you are correct about the 20 seconds. On the 991.2 there aren't tonnes of differences in the suspension, it's just 10mm lower isn't it? and actually an option you can remove if you want.
