One of my biggest pet peeves is how similar the terminology and phrasing used throughout so many of these reviews is. It’s almost like it’s a prerequisite to say that “the shifter is notchy”. I’ve seriously heard some twenty something David Patterson clone say “the shifter in this car is vague and rubbery feeling. It’s notchy.” One of the many reasons I watch Mark and Jack. They formulate their thoughts into words extremely well and aren’t always regurgitating the same old car journalist-isms.

@@larrylampshade1734 They've really ruined almost all other automotive reviewers for me with how much more detailed and unique they are in their reviews...and the humor. They also seem to be some of the most honest. It seems like there are so many reviewers out there that refuse to say too much bad about a car because of the fear of those manufacturers not allowing them to have access to their cars, and the reviews really come off as paid spokesperson feeling rather than actual consumer advice. I also think the repeating of key words is a lot of them not being objective enough and just regurgitating what they hear at a press event or from reps of the manufacturers.

Having had both a GTS, GT3, and GT3RS, the GTS is truly the better car for the street. The other two can easily be driven on the street, but they "feel" like they always want to go faster, and you can tell street driving is not what they were built for. In terms of track driving, the RS is by far the king. But I would not want to take it cross country like the GTS.

That extra 30 hp puts 4 car lengths in front of the S in the quarter mile!

Got a new 992 Targa 4s a few months ago. Same color and interior as this one. It is so crazy fast! Have top down as much as possible. So glad the noise when down is not as bad as many said. And the sound of that flat six is glorious.

Thank you for making these shorter. Very good review

Thanks for the review guys. I have always loved Porsches and the 911 is the iconic version. Obviously I wish the price was lower, but I am so glad there are car companies still making sports cars instead of boring, electrified X-overs.

What an amazing car. I wonder how capable a driver you have to be to really notice the front end differences between this and a GT3. 153K is a shit ton of money. Now, you have to wonder what stealerships will be bending you over for one. Hopefully, you can get into a Cayman GTS. If there's a sweet spot in Porsche's lineup, I think that's it.

I live my dreams through this channel. Thank you.

I was looking at these earlier this year and ended up getting a GT-R...which is a 2016, ~800whp, flex-fuel psychopath that I absolutely adore. But, having had the GT-R for a while, it's VERY clear what the extra Porsche money gets you...refinement. The interior of my car is actually very nice...you probably wouldn't guess it was a Nissan if you didn't know (it's a Premium trim with the upgraded leather seats)...and the engine and AWD system are amazing. The transmission, though...yea...THIS is where I REALLY notice the lack of refinement. It's very mechanical (which, being a huge car guy, I kinda like) but kinda stumbles and gets confused sometimes when driving around town. It basically wants to go WoT ALL THE TIME. lol The PDK is a true work of art. I'm a hard core 3 pedal-lover and MT vs PDK would actually be a tough decision to make. It's SO good. Porsche really has created something special. Refined and smooth when you want, track weapon when you need. SO good. My car IS faster, though. 😁

Stock for stock it’s faster? Straight line or proper circuit? Every GTR I’ve driven is so damn big and front end heavy it’s a huge turn off and the whole thing is so dang played out. can’t believe anyone would drop $180 on a nismo edition when it’s basically an update of a car that used to run $80k. It was a steal at $80, but at 180, someone’s high on something. The driving dynamics are absolutely horrid above 7/10ths (but I don’t like large cars, heavy cars, front engine cars, AWD cars or slushboxes). I’d rather have a 360 in a manual or a 997 GT3 and be “slower”, but I tell all my Tesla buddies the same thing

Yes! I was so looking for this!! Got a November allocation arriving in Jan.

The 992 GTS is awesome because its basically an optioned up 992S. The best thing about both is that they are available with a manual transmission.

Final Thoughts. It's a very good car.

Awesome car and it should be for 150K. Unfortunately, I (and I imagine many of your viewers) do not have the driving skills to fully appreciate it. And, as always, a superb discussion (permeated by giggles) that you and Jack had in the car on the track.

Great review thanks

Interesting. I bought a 991.2 recently as I couldn’t get an allocation for the 992. Could have ordered a new GTS- probably cheaper and true that the difference in performance isn’t large. The decision was made to go gt3 because of the NA engine. I’ve owned 2 turbos, they are crazy fast but the sound even with an exhaust change doesn’t match the gt3. You can’t beat 9000 rpm for crazy! I’m also a wing guy, but that’s just me. All in, it was a tough choice to go with the older gt3 and your video presents the points between the cars well. Good job.

Cool channel. Out of curiosity, who are these gents in the context of automotive journalism/road car testing? Well spoken chaps and a great presentation.

This is my dream car. I'm a firm believer in having a car that isn't way too much for the street. While I can totally appreciate a GT3 or TurboS but they are just way too much for everyday type driving and require a track to get anywhere close to their performance level. This or the C4s in a great color and I would never get rid of it. Cayman GTS is a very close second but I'll probably never be able to own either sadly.

The GTS is faster everywhere with all that torque available at 2200 rpm. The GT3 is a great track car but its not a good road car, I drove it for two days when I was in Santa monica. Steering is darty and ride is harsh and I couldnt redline it 9K on public roads. GT3 is exciting though, but I would go GTS if I had the money

How much louder is the LWP vs this one? Assuming same mic as your other LWP review, it sounds slightly louder.

Thank you porsche for your promotional consideration!!

I'm curious what you guys think of this car having a plastic oil pan instead of a steel one? I know the plastic oil pan is pretty strong and robust. I have one on my MK7 GTI, and it's been perfectly fine with all the driving I do, but for the price of this 911, I would think that it would at least have a steel oil pan, unless they tested it and the steel oil pans kept leaking or something due to it needing a silicone sealant instead of a rubber gasket to seal it. I know that happens with just about everyone who switches over to a steel oil pan on the MK7/7.5 GTI/R models.

It’s funny how Jack gets a haircut whenever you two get in a car that’s worth driving.😅😅😅

How does it compare to the Turbo/Turbo S in regards to sound isolation and ride comfort? I tried the GTS its a bit above average noisy, and the ride was a bit on the rough side (PASM Sport Option)

2:45 freeze frame: why do Porsches all have wave pattern on their brake rotors? Ive noticed this on my 981 GTS and all of my friends Porsche 2 doors. Engineers tell me it's normal but isn't this usually a huge issue? I just don't understand the technical explaination to why it appears and why it's considered okay The rotors on this video are new so that wave pattern isn't super visible by based on shade of the colors you can see it start to form. After a year or two the wave pattern is extremely noticeable like little hills on the rotors

I don’t understand Mark’s comments about the GT3 being a better car? Of course it is. However, you just can’t go out and get a GT3 because there is a game that’s played by all dealers. Therefore, if you want a manual the GTS is your best option in the Porsche line-up. It’s frustrating that you can’t just walk in and buy a GT3……that’s why I’m in que for a GTS personally.
