The Porsche 911 991.2 GTS slots neatly into the 911 line-up above the Carrera S but beneath the new GT3 in terms of driving dynamics, style and price point. It provides daily usability combined with a sportier ride and exciting experience to create an effective balance. Does this mean it is a rounded package that gives you the daily driver balance of a 911 GT3? Let's find out!

This GTS has everything I want in a 911.....no more no less. Plenty of power, rear spoiler that raises and lowers, center lock wheels. I love how it looks!

GTS is the best sounding in the Carrera range!

Big respect for shmee for these awesome reviews!! Been watching tim for years and he is by far better than any other person on KZfaq.

Epic video epic car thank you! Always look forward to a great video from you! Keep up the good work

Took delivery of mine a few months back. Coming from a 2012 C2S, it's very different experience. Very happy with the GTS and agree with your review. I think for those who want a more aggressive daily and look, the GTS is the perfect package. Also like the debadgjng on the door the dealer did, I did the same👍🏻

NICE..... But I love the sound more of the N/A 3.8 GTS.

I like how Shmee has 1M subs & he still reads / responds to the comments.

You probably won't read this but I wanted to say how much better your videos are when they're about regular cars and super cars or your own car stories. I don't tend to watch the videos with the 'one off' cars or with your friends. Excellent content and your knowledge of the cars is great!👍🏼

Do you have a autotrader blog maybe where I can read more of your thoughts ?

Good review mate. Well done.

Hi Tim,good review, detailed description of the car as always!! This model is quite good, it looks beautiful,but probably the only Porsche I'd buy it'd be the "R" version or the GT3 like that you've ordered!! I've been wishing that porsche,very soon will be making for all his models the previous aspirated engine that is more engaging!!

Shmee just stops on the road just to get a thumbnail..

Very well explained. Fresh wording. Good camera perspectives.

It is really a sweet spot car. not too flashy, but still nice.; sort of sporty but still practical, sort of exotic but still reliable.

I'm hi, guys Shmee!

Nice video shmee!

The 997.1s feels pretty fast to me. I took mine to the Peak District a few weeks ago and had a blast. This has 100 horsepower more and is considered pretty tame to modern standards. You are a lucky man Shmee.

Shmee, you always surprise me with your knowledge about cars.

Great content as always! and I would love to daily a GT3 lol

Hi shmee I can really see your yt channel is growing fast

nice review!

Amazing car love the way it’s fast as a gt3 on a track and faster on public roads yet can be a daily driver just fine and with options like burnmester stereo it’s just a perfect car IMO

Love your videos @shmee150

Shmee.. You used to upload later in the day. I'd watch your uploads while I eat supper. Now you upload earlier and I can't help myself so I watch them. I eat my dinner in silence now.

Love the GTS so much!

From Oman .. respect & love DON'T STOP KEEP GOING Peace

Hey shmee can u do a review on a macan Turbo thanks

the GTS is more a daily driver due to the turbocharged generated torque in low RPM areas. But it is NOT a daily driver GT3! I have driven both (as you might know ;)). It's a matter of taste if you like the power coming out of the car with high revs or with low revs. Nevertheless you can use a GT3 as a daily driver too!

Tom - Ex review. The sky blue jumper & red seatbelts is a top look. Nice one. :)

In my opinion one can daily drive anything they can get tagged and insured. The question seems to revolve more around what they are or are not willing to put up with. Great video, I enjoyed it.

I've been planning in the black of y head 991.2 GTS and PTS it in that new turbo exclusive series bronze color, exhaust tune and HRE's and of course manual

Shmee, how the hell do you remember all these figures by heart? I have trouble remembering the amount of doors on my car!

Thank you Tim. Tyre pressures all over the place. Not well prepped. Which OPC?

Beautiful!!!

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="40">0:40</a> i like your style "twin turbo charge flat 6 back there "

Wish you payed more attention to lights and their design both on and off in future :)

Thank you, nearly bought one, but I want a all wheel drive really. Cheers

This thing just looks way to good imo. These rimsss omfg

really nice!

Below the center screen it looks like there is an optical drive and a cassette slot. So retro, lol.

Hi Shmee ,how u doin Your videos are superb

Can you change the driving modes individually eg soft suspention, load exhaust, rev match. Or can you just do normal, sports and sports plus?

what i don't understand is why they make a GTS when you have the Turbo and Turbo S?

I'm ordering one this fall. Either a 4GTS or a GT3 ,both build are pretty similar in price because I have alot of options on the 4GTS. So please tell me which one is better?

My dad just bought one of these. He daily drives it and is happy like a child in Disneyland now!

Hi, I'm about to get a GTS. What do you Think of the SPASM? No too harsh? Rgs

Can you turn off the auto rev matching in sport +? Like my brain is hard wired to rev match especially while driving hard.

I'm confused I thought all 911's had their ignition key slot on the left regardless of whether the car was right or left hand drive?

Shmee150 where's your Mini at? Haven't seen it in ages

Tim does the new Carrera have the Weissach package options??

Where do you life while you were Germany with the zagato ? you drove through my home Town :D

Digging that yellow Carerra GT at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1002">16:42</a>

It blows my mind how tight the roads are out there even outside of main cities

How is the gt3 a diiferent 'ballpark' at 500 bhp vs 450? The torque off the gts makes up for the hp diff - as shown by the gts ring time on cups

Why are the b roads so narrow and I noticed you prefer the Sony action cam over the go pro ?

I like the GTS better cause Im a salty dude and I couldn't get the allocation for a GT3

dream car right here.

Shemee, would you choose pdk or manual for this car?

One thing that the smoking tire as well as nick murray mentioned is that the optional lift system is an absolute must for this car. Because of the lowered suspension, the new front splitter and the long overhangs you 'll scrape everywhere otherwise.

WOW that color

The Porsche is the ultimate driving machine. The manual is great for you when your GT3 come to your garage brother. But I can't wait to see your new GT3 delivery. Congratulations brother.

Question re the head unit - what's the slot in the middle that looks like a cassette slot :)?

The GTS is design wise and in terms of the required performance the best 911 model!! The alcantara in the inside, the black details and rims look so attractive :) I wish I will be able to drive the new 911 GTS someday **

Well I got the drive the 991 119.2 GTS GT3G² X with the optional Flux Capacitor

Very cool 😎

🤦🏾‍♂️ omg am i the only who gets really confused with porsche models. Like there are so many different kinds

Are those the simple chairs in? In a gts?

Can’t really go wrong with a new Porsche.Very nice indeed 😍

Could you do a video on the new cayman GTS?

Anybody think that by putting an aftermarket exhaust on this that you would lose the overrun cracks and bangs?

I'm always an hour late commenting after the video upload lol

It's considerable how much more "car" the GT3 is over the GTS. Both are sweet but the GT3 is just another level with that NA 4.0. Thanks for this Tim, looking forward to your spec.

Shmee150 ! ! ! ! Keep up the amazing work! #teamporsche

cool colour

I guess it's a good sign when Shmee's only critical point is that the car is a bit too perfect. Pretty interesting supercar owners like him expect something else to not make it boring or something like that. :) Wished my daily driver would be flawless.

I get the comparison between the GTS and GT3. But how about the Turbo or Turbo S? Price tags aside, would you rather go for a Turbo or stick with the GTS?

Big up Tidmarsh!

Think this is worthwhile over the Carrera S? Going to get one of them in December

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1002">16:42</a> that yellow CGT though :D

Where is the column on autotrader..?

Can auto-blip be switched off?

Some say he has a fleet of dusty supercars, including some limited editions that we have only heard of, all stored in a garage in central London... All we know is, he's called the Shmee!

perfect car

Why is the steering wheel on the wrong side?

Is Shmoo starting too look like a little Jay Leno with his Blue sweater outfit ? :P

Tim this is a random question not related to the video but what would you buy in this day and age as a first car for new drivers?

Are you still sold on the PDK?

Good thing that it is available as a manual :)

you understand he's in England when it rains in the half of his videos :')

My Dad has the Carrera Cabriolet in Guards Red. Its an absolutely fantastic car, I love the sports exhaust combined with the spool of the turbos, very cool!!!

That is one cool car

In the long run i must say that i prefer a more standard looking 911 over this GTS. Specially the shown spec with black wheels, headlights etc

Hi Shmee, may i know where to get the x3000 holder like yours?

Great presentation on distinguishing the difference between the 911's three car line up, and great insight on what to expect from them. I will order the GT3 simply because it is the right fit for me, and the fact that Porsche didn't limited it like its siblings, the 911 R or GT3 RS. I've already create the color I want, (Blue) and drive train that I know a lot of people will disagree with me on picking, the PDK over standard. For me personally, the PDK's take off is much faster than the standard. The fact of the matter is that I will never use it on the top end, hitting a fraction of a second slower at 197 mph vs standard 911 GT3's top end at 198 mph. However, I can still be involved with this incredible machine's PDK paddle shifts, thus giving me a clear win :-)

I love this car ... thank you for the video I hope I can own one of these one day.

was almost first haha love your videos shmee

Today spaghetti tells us which sauce has just the right amount is spice

This car is my dream.

While I love and prefer the GT3 I think that, in the hands of the right tuner and in the right spec, the GTS will obliterate the GT3 in a straight line and perhaps even around corners. It has so much potential
