How significant is the $10,000 lightweight package for the 992 Porsche Turbo S? It subtracts 80 lbs from the overall package, resulting in 0-60 times in the low 2's and a quarter mile number in the 9's at 140 MPH. This is an insanely quick car, especially for only (I know, "only") $200,000. The world's most well rounded daily driver supercar has only gotten better, and faster accelerating than any 911 before it.
Porsche provided the vehicle, insurance, and a tank of fuel for this review.

I purchased a Carrera T, which is at the lower end of the spectrum. I’ve owned RX7’s and some fast Mustangs, but this Porsche is a whole other level of perfection. It does everything so well, and even for a “base” motor it is very strong and more than enough to have fun in the Canyons. I know a Turbo S or GT3 is faster, but those cars cost 2x or even more the cost of a T. I’m sure they don’t provide 2x the fun. Get into a base 991.2 Carrera with a manual and you’ll have a fantastic time, and it’s a much more obtainable goal in life for those of us clawing up from the bottom.

@@JordanPayneLV the new turbo motors have amazing performance, the low end torque is intense but tuned to be manageable. There is nothing like putting the power down with a 911 coming out of a turn, you just use all of the power possible to accelerate. Yes, the sound is different, yes I prefer the wail of a GT3 too, but I’ve also always loved turbos on my cars (from my past cars: RX7 turbo rotaries are the jam, and a turbo V8 is how you win races). The newer turbo motors sound cool to me, and the overall experience is exciting. Keep saving and when you can trade up to the newer car. In the mean time, your current Cayman is a beautiful car with handling dynamics that serve as a benchmark to all others, living with it for a bit longer isn’t the worst thing in life 😊

I had the same thoughts. But try finding a GT3 or an allocation to order one. 1-2 year waiting list and average dealer markup of $100K. So last August I ordered the next best thing, a 911 Turbo S (TTS) and optioned it as close to a GT3 as I could, and got it with the Light Weight Pkg (LWP) just like the 911 in this video. Skipped on the frills that add weight. Waited 8 months for it and paid MSRP which is actually a great deal since currently TTS usually have a $20K markup now.

Utterly amazing car and good review as always Matt. Just curious why the inside shot in the car appears to show the older version of PCM? I have a MY2022 992 as well (just a lowly Carrera) that was built over the '21 holidays and arrived in the US in March 22. It has PCM 6.0 while this appears to be the previous version, was this car built prior I guess?

Man, you are definitely a singular car reviewer!! Also, you have such a terrific ability to describe the machine and sensations wonderfully well!! Congrats for your job and contribution to the car enthusiastic world. However, (always there is an "however"...hahahaha) my friend, frankly I miss out something in your testimonies: Comparations! You already have the opportunity to drive cars in the same spectrum, in this case, 911 T + AM Vantage + MB AMG GTx + R8 and etc. Maybe use percentages to express your comparations, like: This 911 992 T S does yourselves feel 30% faster than the AM Vantage. Or: This 991 992 T S is around 50% less comfortable than AM Vantage bla bla bla. Do you know what I am saying? And please please please, don't get me wrong!! This is just a humble suggestion!! And again, CONGRATULATIONS for you Channel!!!

@yyyyyeeeee4060 2 жыл бұрын

Per my dealer - the wait list is already 3 years long, so a lot of people are interested, mostly buyers who didn't get a GT2RS allocation and want the absolute fastest Porsche they can buy. They already have Cayennes, other 911s, and Macans for daily duties. This seems like a good package for the kind of Porsche owner who wants a sports car, but never tracks their car. A GT3 is kind of a waste if you never track it, and this is definitely the most extreme road focused Porsche of the bunch.

Unfortunately this insane level of performance is just unusable here in the US. You’ll be in jail if you try to use it. A base 992 is all you need, or get an S if you want a manual.

"Lowest factory horsepower car in the 9's" Yeah, when you report your wheel horsepower as the factory rating for crank horsepower, flexes like this come a bit easier don't they PORSCHE.

@JCviggen1 2 жыл бұрын

Actually when strapped to a proper dyno like a MAHA that is the standard in Germany you find out that they make pretty much exactly rated crank power. The US tuners generally aren't equipped with the type of dyno that would give an accurate overall measurement. They're mostly useful for before/after comparisons. It's also absolutely imperative that there are no correction factors applied to a modern turbo engine run because the ECU is already compensating to have rated power in all conditions.

I've said this before, but the 911 is a ringer in certain metrics. Look at where the engine is located in a dragster. That weight way out back over the primary drive wheels means it doesn't have to wait for weight transfer before it can hook up. And in braking, the rear end can take on a greater percentage of the work because of the rear weight bias. That's not to say Porsche hasn't defied the laws of physics in turning the widow-maker sports car into a tame daily that simultaneously makes its drivers into track heroes. But AWD + PDK + twin turbos + rear engine + 315 section rear tires is a recipe for rapid launches.

Such a perfect car. I wish they made the Turbo S in a manual, they have the Sports Classic in manual only, but it's only available in RWD only, only other feasible option would be to go with the GTS, but then you can't order those wheels I like, and everything gets blacked out(and you're down on power from the Turbo S, even moreso if you drop down to the Carrera 4S.....geez!!!!!

10 DB louder is a lot. FYI, volume doubles every 3DB, so for example 63DB is double 60DB, 66DB is doouble 63DB, 69DB is double 66DB, its exponential, not linear. so yes, 10DB is a LOT louder.
