Originally from Liverpool and driving a 911 (991.1 -Racing Yellow) in the Arizona desert for the last couple of years has been quite a dream come true. My friend here in AZ just ordered his 2022 Targa, where I had the honor of doing the spec on the car. I must say I’ve never driven a better car than a Porsche. The local dealer offered me $20k over what I paid them two years for this car. Naturally aspirated car and with a wonderful sound.

Hi. Thanks for such an interesting and informative vid. Especially useful about the wheels and tyres with all the bloody potholes all over the place its only a matter of time before you get a puncture. Would appreciate your thoughts and comments as to how much MORE the GTS gives over and above the C4S???.... Unlike Messrs Clarkson, Harris etc I am not remotely interested in power slide opposite lock exits out of corners. My "Toy" at the mo is a BMW M4 with Comp pack. And if you put it in Sports mode and turn all the gizmo,s off its virtually undrivable in damp, cold or wet conditions. 4 wheel drive would give quite some reassurance. Finally. Any long term issues with the roof mechanism?.... Porsche reliability is legendary but it doesn't half look like a complicated piece of kit. Cheers though. Thanks and I have subscribed.

I use the same OPC and have the coupe but I dont agree on point number 5. The OPC doesnt do damage every time they take the bolt off and neither do I. Just needs the right tools in my case a snap on torque multiplier. Agree for most that a puncture means a trip straight to OPC. Nice the Targa

Roger Bailey the 911 Targa is all about showing off and being seen in and after that perf wise. The sound is tamed on this new turbo version . The only reason a N/A engine in a targa is to hear that beautiful induction noise and exhaust. Sadly thats not happening in the newer models. So i'll keep with previous Targa model: - best sounding engine - no turbo no probl -excitement everytime you fire that engine.

You don't have to talk your fucking boring "only naturally aspirated engine sermon", because it S U C K S ! What about that: just buy a new N/A Porsche 911 Speedster for 300.000 Euros, then you won't have to complain about "the sound" with its GT3 engine in an open 911...?! Boring wannabe "purists" like you are still complaining about the 3 liter turbo engine and "its tamed sound", but in just a few years from now they will certainly appreciate fucking disgusting heavy and almost silent electric "sports cars" with almost 2 tons of weight with a big hurrah..., isn't it??! You are certainly just a boring hypocrite! There are some really good high class aftermarket exhaust systems for the 3 liter turbo engines, which would give the Targa models a fantastic sound, because there's always a solution for these stupid "sound" complaints! But certainly not for people like... you smart-ass..., isn't it?! The 911 Targa with turbo engine is just the better sports car, period! Porsche is constantly making better and better sports cars, even for its open roof 911 versions. Even Porsche itself don't mean these cars to be driven like track oriented versions like the GT3. Especially a 911 Targa/Cabriolet needs "torque", and the new 3 liter turbo engine gives you exactly that! Your "mimimimimi" about its "lack of sound" is so boring... Just stop it!

Miami blue is my favourite color

Good to watch this video! When the roof is closed, can we still enjoy the same music quality inside as other coupe models have without any possible wind noise created by the mechanical clearance of the Targa convertible mechanism? Thank you in advance.

Thank you for this precise reply.

will try and test drive the 992.. if its all that will buy 1

Appreciate that the video is 9 minutes 11 seconds long

Hi, really great video and enjoyed watching the series on the 911. I’m looking at trading my panamera for a 911 gts but do you think it’s a good idea given the 992 is launched in 2 weeks? Of course a gts or targa won’t be our for 2-3 years, but can’t help but think is it a good time to buy a new old model?

Andrew Singh thank you. It's a good time to buy a 991.2 as dealers are open to lower offers November December. The 992 will be priced even higher when it arrives and likely no discounts.

There is another mesmerizing top roof, the Honda delsol from the 90’ I believe . Take a look.
