We review the last model year of the 991.2 Porsche 911 Carrera T. The Manual Transmission version is highly coveted for good reason. In this video, we take a look at some of the technical aspects of this last generation car. Now that the 911 992 has been released we have a basis to discuss why so many people think this car is so great and why others fall asleep looking at it. With cars like the Lexus LC500, Shelby GT500, Corvette C8, M5 all available around or under $100,000 this becomes and interesting purchase.

I’ve been driving Porsches for 40+ years and this may be the best video I’ve ever watched that really explained the reasons to own one. Even the negatives that were mentioned are positives! Great video! P.S. I raced motorcycles for 15 years and tracked Porsches for 8 years...........I’ve always driven the base model Porsches as my daily drivers. I don’t collect cars........I only drive them. So, for me.........if you enjoy driving, a Porsche is the finest everyday car you could own. Yes, a bit expensive, but it gives you the best of all worlds.............performance, great handling, comfort, usability, and fantastic reliability. As the saying goes.......Nothing Even Comes Close!

@@thomaswelcomer8443 ​ Pre - Post, they're all unreliable. I remember back in the 80's, my friends dad had a 911. When I asked about it, he went into a rant about how cr@p it was, and finally he ditched it for a BMW 944/924 Less said the better. I've known a lot of people with these including two of my landlords, and my boss .. who when asked replied "It goes fast ... sometimes" It was always at the shop being repaired. *The Worst Case* was my brother and my cousin who both bought their cars around the same time. My cousin was smart and ditched his as soon as the bills came. My idiot brother carried on and was greeted regularly with £2,000+ bills, a whole load of issues, a blown engine at just over 60k ... and afterwards, a continued slew of unreliability, parts falling off when driving, and more of those lovely £2,000+ bills. After 8 year he ditched it, but by then it was worth less than his socks. And Nick Murry (channel) after two disasters, he wants back in. There's No Fool ... -Like An Old Fool- Like Nick Murray! So VW or Porsche, What matters ore is how deep your pockets are and how much time you're gonna be spending arranging a flatbed truck ... yet again, calling the service centre and getting no reply, some sales manager expecting you to kiss his feet because he says: "we'll do it as a courtesy as its not under warranty" as though you got the car for free. And if you're in the UK, good luck with the Porsche UK head office, 'cause they REALLY don't give a f**k!

Another great piece. I actually love that Jack and Mark disagree about whether the 911 is worth it's price. It's refreshing to see car reviewers not just idolize the 911, but take it for what it is, and evaluate based on how it actually makes you feel. Thanks for the insight, and really looking forward to the GT3 video!

Funny, I've long felt Porsche's were incredibly over priced and essentially over-rated. However, my dream car is a 997 Carrera 2S or 4S because at $35-45k for a lightly used example they are actually a fantastic deal. Even at that price range though, you can afford far more powerful and probably more capable performance cars brand new off the lot. If I had 100,000 bucks for a new car I'd be hard pressed not to buy the new Audi RS6 Wagon lol. That car truly has everything I want and seems actually reasonable price-wise given it's overall performance, luxury, refinement and utility.

I think other channels address the short attention span the most people have. Hands up, I get through a few minutes of an Autogefühl review, and I'm fast forwarding to the driving part. Usually I can't stand the fact that half of a Top Gear, Auto Trader, Auto Express, Carwow, Autocar, MotmanTV, MotorTrendChannel ... reviews nowadays focus on infotainment systems, cup holders and boring "Quirks and Features". But no one really gets technical, because they're all focusing on marketing.

Gentlemen. I’ve owned a 911T for 18 months and it’s been fantastic. But....it’s now up for sale. I’m 60 y.o. next month and my tastes/needs have changed so I value comfort (with quality) higher than performance (with quality). So you’re both right - this is the best ‘all seasons’ performance car, but it depends on where you’re at as whether or not it’s right for you. Incidentally, my next car will probably be an LC500 😉

First of all, top shelf video as always. As an engineer, Porsche fanatic and track rat I can relate to this video on so many levels. I've been reading and lusting after the 911 since a young age but have never been able to afford one. Thanks to Turo I was able to sample a 991 Carrera S (March) and more recently the 991 GT3 (September) and realize my Porsche dreams. When I sampled the Carrera, honestly I felt completely underwhelmed; a case of meeting your hero. During that trip we had an F Type R and a Bentley Continental GT as well. The Porsche was flat out boring compared to the Jag and paled as a DD compared to the Bentley (obviously). The Porsche was certainly the precision tool in the group, but was also as Mark said, sterile and very basic for the money. I did not see the value, especially coming from the Jag which had an absolute sense of occasion about it. The Porsche listens and does what you tell it to do, the PDK was superior to whatever (ZF I assume) auto the Jag had. But the Jag was sexy, it was loud, the interior had more luxury. The Jag was a sledgehammer to the Porsche scalpel but it was thrilling every time I drove. The Porsche was only thrilling in the twisties and otherwise a fairly mundane DD. I also did notice some turbo lag, in a DD environment most will not notice but in something like autox I can see the 0.25s delay and non linear power annoy me. The GT3? Perfection on wheels. I do think you need some track or performance driving experience to truly appreciate this car, but otherwise I cannot recommend sampling or owning a GT3 enough. The best OEM, non racecar I have ever driven. In fact it felt closer to a race car than a street car. The sound at 9000rpm with a BBi exhaust, the communication through the steering wheel, how damn solid it felt after 23k miles and the throttle response were unreal. The GT3 is worth every penny. This time we also had a GT350 and C7 in the convoy. The GT350 is the best mustang I have ever sampled. I can't tell you the GT3 is 3-4x better than the GT350. The C7 is hardly worth mentioning honestly, fast but nothing special or exciting. But if I had the money and it wasn't my last dollar, the GT3 is what I would take home. Every. Damn. Time. Meet your heroes.

Great video. Really dig this channel and the partnership with Tri. I own a 911 T as my daily driver. It’s pretty damn flawless and very practical. You don’t sit in the car as much as wear it, like a crafted Swiss watch. It’s also a very fast car, which isn’t really mentioned in the video. If you keep it in the rev band, you have all the usable torque you could hope for and that great Porsche flat 6 howl. So, it’s easy to drive it with visceral emotion. And the car can handle that spirited driving 100% of the time while remaining reliable very day. It’s an amazing car, and I can’t think of anything else for 100k that offers rear-engine grip and fun, with beautiful classic looks and bullet-proof everyday high performance. It’s a bargain at that cost. Congrats to whomever wins this one.

Take this car to a track and you will fall in love. I also drove the GT3 while I was there and I enjoyed the T more. I'm not a professional driver, so the T was much more manageable and fun at any speed. Porsche got the T recipe perfect, hoping that the 992 version is even better.

Well, I just bought a 2018 911T with 4700 miles and in a manual. It's my 7th 911 since 1979. My last was a 2012 GTS4 and it was wonderful. I had a 2008 C4S that I found out after selling it was a real one of one car. RS Orange, Factory Aero, Ceramic Brakes, Sport Seats and a LOT more options. MSRP was $125K in 2008 and it wasn't even a GT3. This 911T is gonna be my new favorite. My first 991 and its the 991.2 with all the updates. I still have a 1975 G Model Carerra with 21000 miles that has been relinquished to "show duty" only as it become too valuable to drive around because of wearing all original paint.

One of the best reviews of the T I've seen. About the emotional aspect though - I've been fortunate enough to have cycled through a number of interesting and emotional cars - including an NA1 NSX and a CTS-V Wagon MT. Most recently, I sold a GT4 and went to a T (around the same time I started going to the track less). Most internet commentators would scream bloody murder for trading ANY of those cars for a T. IMO, these cars are great "first, second and third dates", but they wear on you over time -- GT4 too stiff and low for crappy canyon roads ... hit a compression hard enough and your strut towers will blow (... google GT4 Strut Tower). CTS-V Wagon has tiny fuel talk and consumption of a Saturn V rocket ... more range anxiety than a Tesla. NA1 NSX impossible to find parts for, and all the master techs are retiring. The T feels like "the keeper". If you put Rear Wheel Steer on it and throw it into some really challenging mountain roads it comes alive. For that type of driving I'd rather have it than a Red Eye or LC500 or even any of the other aforementioned cars. As Porsche moves to digital cockpits, hybridization and eventual electrification (all in wide-body format only), I think this "last of the narrow-body base manual 911s" will most definitely age well.

As a 911 Carrera T owner I was so keen to watch this as I think that savagegeese create some of the best car content on youtube. I get both points of view and in a way it's why I love my car - it's powerful but not crazy, the handling is sublime, yet it is still practical and it is not too flashy. For me at least, it is the perfect sports car.

Dude I love your videos, I watch it to the end. Your reviews are detailed, and unbiased. Your reviews are nostalgia, you bring in the new people who are interested in card and people who have been driving that model for many decades. Cheers mate power on. What I like about is the Porsche still sticking too manual gear box. Fucken Porsche mans so godly good! I love Porsche my grandpa had a Boxster S back in 2003. For sports car for me it’s hard, Ferrari is a typical people no1, Aston Martin, or a Porsche. It’s hard. I like my e36 bmw manual gearbox box, and I take care of it since I bought it used, actually me and my dad. We worked on it my god it’s amazing. I miss my grandpa’s boxter s Porsche. After him having a stroke 6 years ago, and he is still alive I still want to get Porsche. It always remind me of him when we he took me out to go drive after his work as a lawyer. I was so thrilled of how fast and nimble the car was. He sold it years before he had a stroke so that my parents can have a Cadillac Escalade.

Yep - this is a great formula - the Jack/Mark combo, and Turbowski in there when he can to be “Kramer”. I drove the 911T and its one of the few modern cars that excites me but at the end of it for a hundred grand i too struggled and, for me, ill take a boxster Spyder for that cash. Seems out of left field the lc500 discussion but i do not disagree with you. Like you Mark i want to be over the moon excited for 100 grand but modern cars can do so much while being a bit boring. But I wouldn’t fault anybody for buying it - Porsche’s are expensive and the chassis highlights show where the money goes but the 911T is one of the better “values” in Stuttgart’s range.
