Another thing missing from this raving review is that you can run this engine at 6K RPMS all day, every day, and launch it 1000 times, and it will never skip a beat. Tried and true engineering at its finest.

Well having come back from 2 months drive to S of France, Italy and Germany in my Porsche Turbo S I can tell you it made for a brilliant high speed cruiser. And for some reason a drop dead crowd pleaser wherever I stopped. Brilliant early morning drive along the coast road out of Portofino with 3 Ferraris and not feeling second best. The spaces and streets it slipped down would have been inaccessible to Ferraris, Bugattis or heaven forbid Lamborghini. Dream on; but in the real world it will be the Porsche guy in the hotel skybar with his best girl and Negroni whilst the Lamborghini guy frets over his front splitter. Or waiting for a tow.

The factory specs are 0-60 in in 2.7 , BUT everyone from Car & Driver to Motor Trend to independent KZreadrs have hit consistent 0-60's in 2.2 with many getting 1.87 Second 0-60 times after warning up the tires. Additionally the horsepower figure stated by Porsche on the 2022 Turbo S is 640 Horsepower, NOT 650 that you mentioned, however, knowing Porsche, it probably dyno's at near 700 Horsepower

Nice review. I have a 996 Turbo S manual tuned to 535hp. It’s super fun. Also a 987 Cayman S for the non turbo fiat 6 sounds. Both fun. Cheers.

Many thanks for the outlook and commentary lad Porsches are awesome

Porsche is like one of most overlooked and underappreciated car manufacturers. Everyone's just talking Lambos, Ferraris, McLarens, Bugattis, Koenigseggs - somehow leaving Porsche in the shadows despite so many of their cars being such performances beasts.

Great driving and the SF90 Stradale is the best all around performance car. However the 911 Turbo S is the best overall performance per dollar hands down and also the best daily.

I too must weigh in regarding the Turbo. I own a Turbo S Cab, and at 62 have driven millions of miles. I love V8's and torque and engines and SPEED. There are many great brands out there, but Porsche does it SO differently. I regularly commute a 1,000 mile round-trip, with luggage, to my other home. Nothing I have raced or driven on public roads can compare to the punch, forehead banging braking, and gut wrenching cornering of a new Porsche Turbo S. It is the BEST HIGH PERFORMANCE AUTOMOBILE MADE SO FAR! ESPECIALLY WHEN COST OR RELIABILITY IS FACTORED IN So, do you concur Doctor? Dr, do you concur? LOOKING FOR A Z51 TOO! CUZ, I'M PROUD TO BE A YANK AS WELL!

Does the PDK have any cranking sound when you are downshifting or at low speed and it downshifting by itself ?

I’ve always thought Porsche make incredibly well engineered cars but haven’t got near wanting to press the button on owning one. I’ve driven a couple of 911’s and was impressed by the levels of grip and acceleration but wondered how anyone other than a seriously competent driver could utilise anywhere near the limit of its capabilities on the track much less the public roads.

The bit where those two guys in the white Michelin porsche pulled out across oncoming traffic for Internet clicks was awesome. Nice one guys. Super cool!

Owned a 991.1 Turbo S that I modded to 605 wheel hp. Had it for five trouble free years. I cannot think of a better all purpose daily drivable sports car than a Turbo S. It does everything well.

What was the route you guys took? Reaaaaalllllly interested!!

A Porsche is that old silver fox enjoying his coffee, but if you talk to him, his only memories are of racing at the bleeding edge and pushing every limit endlessly. Always a classy, but intimidating guy. A guy not many people can live up too. The 911 is this personality distilled.

Is this your car or did you sell it already?

It feels like Porsche is last brand beside Koenigseg,Pagani that is putting pride in product.They push constantly

Used GT cars under £100k would be a good group review - Continental GT, DBS, 612/FF, Gran Turismo etc

GT3 for the road GT4 for the track!

what happened to your poor front reg plate?

the turbo S for me is the ultimate NEW car to appreciate if your passionate about engineering and appreciate that kind of thing. I would love to do well enough to have one as a weekend treat car. But.... the emotive petrol head side of me still says Ferrari TDF is absolutely number 1 in the modern world. If were still calling more then 5 years old modern lol

Where is that road please?

Yeah, time for me to upgrade.

Where the heck is this i been in uk 10 years and never seen anything like this before, been to so many cities there, nothing like this?

just get the regular turbo..tune it if need be and save a ton of money

Great, another variation that looks the same as the previous. Most people won't know the difference between the trim or finish arrangements. Yes 2.7 sec 0-60 is lightening fast but 1/4 times, the top speed is not so appealing.

Absolute dream car

Mr JWW were you in GOT?

See one yesterday, but it was parked outside a dentists, I'm guessing it's owner was inside

I still personally prefer Audi's R8, but the 911 is faster, slightly more practical. I aim to have either one within the next 3 years.
