The differences between the Carrera and the Carrera S for the current 992 generation of Porsche 911 have brought them closer together than ever before, so is now the time to give up on the thinking that you shouldn't go any lower then the Carrera S model when buying a new 911?
Thanks to Porsche GB for the loan of "A 911" for this video.

@@itguru2037 I also went for the base model, but I did go for a fairly lengthy, carefully chosen list of options. Owning a 911 has been a 40 year dream for me. I finally made it, and don’t ever plan on selling this car, it is a base 991.2. I use it as a daily driver and regularly undertake 1000mile days. It is the most capable, most exciting vehicle I have ever owned.

Great review. I have a 997 gen 2 base Carrera, albeit with a good few optional extras. I do agree, the base is more than enough car for most people and shouldn't be overlooked. It's plenty fast enough with 345bhp for the road, never mind a 385bhp version with more torque that you tested. I would say though Porsche should make a sports exhaust and sports chrono standard on all cars nowadays.

Great review - I've ordered a base 911 Carrera which will be a 992.2 with delivery in 2024. Don't yet know what the new models will be like, how many will be hybrids etc. Very good point about the steering wheel being the touch point of the car. Was considering and drove a Tacan but feel a 911 is the better option as more and more cars become electric, unfortunately the UK just doesn't have the infrastructure with many public chargers aways broken and costing practically as much a petrol. Currently have a Tesla Model 3 and even the Supercharging network is now not an incentive as it's opened up to other brands - too many Audis and BMWs parking poorly meaning you can't access the chargers. I don't have kids, just my girlfriend and a dog will be in the car so I feel a 911 is perfect. Previously had 2 Caymans and a Cayenne so I'm also familiar with the sort of space Porsches offer.

Just took delivery of my nicely optioned C2, on Sunday. I’ve been driving a 2017 Macan S I bought new and an older BMW 330i. Before I get into the car, please pay attention to the dealer. They can help make or break your experience. We only have 2 here in Oregon……my C2 was handled by Sunset Beaverton…..and it was seamless. We won’t waste time with the other. In the short time I’ve had the C2, it has surpassed my expectations in every category. The 3 year wait allowed me plenty of time to hone my options……and I started the process looking at a 2021…..and ended up with a 2023….perfect ! A knowledgeable brand ambassador is essential as they can guide you to options that will make your car yours….and not overextend into Turbo-Land. There are a couple of options I would really encourage and the extended range fuel tank is number 1 ! It will give you about 23 gallons of fuel as opposed to about 16……and that translates into some incredible range between fuel stops. And in second place I would suggest getting the Sport Chrono. I think the first thing that comes to mind is someone that is going to race their car. In reality, it allows a much wider, easier to access vehicle control options. Very much worth the price. And one more to really consider…..the adaptive cruise control. It will be a godsend should you get in heavy or stop and go traffic. I got 14 way seats because of the addition of extending bolsters. You must have 14 or 18 way to get that feature. I think there are other seats that might make you just as comfortable. I did juice it up with beige interior ( Agate Grey exterior ) yellow seat belts and yellow tach ring. Gorgeous !! Those were the major ones that I really encourage you to look at…. And when you begin to put the first miles on your car, your will no longer wonder why Porsche people become so loyal to the brand…..you have just entered an entirely new level of transportation.

You can't get the sport suspension on the base. That's the show stopper for me. I would probably find the the standard suspension too soft, and wouldn't want to go aftermarket on a brand new in-warranty car. So, yeah, they are probably priming the market for the T.

Porsche gets so many things right in their designs, but the one area where they fall down is in the front numberplate, which in this model looks like it's been stuck on as an afterthought and not integrated into the front design at all. Some BMW designs are even worse when it comes to this. It's almost like the designers don't take it into account when doing their designs, and when the cars are ready for the real world the numberplate is just stuck on anywhere and looks hideous.

I initially spect’d a C4……base with all wheel drive. After almost 3 years on the allocation list, the sales manager took me aside and advised me I would probably NEVER see a C4……he’d only seen 1 in about 4 years. He suggested I switch to either a C2 or C4s. I went with a very nicely optioned C2……and had an allocation in 30 days or so…. On the plus side for 2 vs all wheel…..with 2 wheel you can get the extended range gas tank. ( 23 gal vs 16 ) With all wheel, you cannot get this option. For about $230.00, in was a no brainer ! ( and one of Porsches less expensive options. ) The car has made port in Benicia, Ca……and awaiting a transport to my dealer. I think I’m going to like this one !!!

More aluminium was add into frame on 922 is 70% aluminium the rest is steel on 991 is 44% of frame aluminium rest different types of steel so there was biggest change.
