Every petrolhead has to have a 911 at some point in their life

The turbo S, the only supercar that you can drive in the heaviest of snow and the sunniest of days. Also, the rear engine layout gives the best grip over the rear wheels for acceleration, so it’s a balancing act between acceleration and corner speed. Love the channel!

It's true! Having the weight at the rear helps a lot with acceleration, but it becomes a problem when cornering. It's really a marvel of engineering that Porsche has managed to get such great track cars out of the a RR layout. Thank you for watching the channel and subscribing :) we're almost at 1.000 now!

@@abriatusI agree the rear engine gave the 911 alot of cornering problems on early models however the engine has moved more and more to the center… it’s more of a mid-engine so cornering is much better.

I have a 991.2 carrera S and it’s a very regular visitor to my local Porsche dealership. It’s had new turbo’s , water pump, air con system, brake assist servo and brake lines plus broken rear coil spring replaced with only 23,000 miles on the clock . I would strongly recommend a Porsche warranty unless you have very deep pockets. All the repairs were fixed under warranty but the dealer said the repairs would have been 15,000 if I had paid😢😢.

1:30 "Air-cooled 911's were considered garbage" I'd love to see your source for this comment cause the 911 has always been a desirable object.

@abriatus Жыл бұрын

Prices reflect that sentiment. Aircooled 911s could be had for 10-15k in the 2000s. I still remember tons of people wondering why a “junk” 70s Carrera was selling for 20 grand on forums. If you want actual links: here’s a R&T article mentioning prices back then and a guy on Quora also talking about it: www.quora.com/Why-are-the-air-cooled-Porsche-911s-so-popular-to-the-point-that-it-is-very-difficult-to-buy-one-at-a-reasonable-price www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/a29421/1984-porsche-911-carrera-buyers-guide/

Nobody ever ever thought air cooled 911's were garbage!!!! Prices were low on all cars back then.

@abriatus 10 ай бұрын

Hi! That's not true at all. Most of the 911's rivals were still worth a lot of money back then, it was just the Porsche. And then it soared starting in the mid 2000s.

Why does Porsche still insist on inserting a key fob and on the left side?

@abriatus Жыл бұрын

It’s a heritage thing going back to the Le Mans days. Having the key there allows you to start the car with your left hand and putting it into first with your right hand at the same time
