Porsche 911 T: Purist's Delight
The Porsche 911 T is a driver-focused take on the iconic sports car. It sheds some luxuries for a lighter weight, sharper handling, and more engaging experience.
Highlights:
Engaging Drive: Lighter weight, sharper steering, and a glorious manual transmission make the 911 T a joy to drive.
Stripped-Down Focus: Less sound deadening and the option to forego rear seats enhance the connection between driver and car.
Performance: Still no slouch, with a 0-60 mph time around 4.5 seconds and a thrilling engine sound.
Trade-Offs:
Bare-Bones Interior: The focus on lightweighting can make the cabin feel a bit basic compared to other 911s.

The Top 5 Reasons to still Consider the MK6 GTI today!
For my decent lifestyle aged at 53 years young.. I'm very happy with my Carrera S 2024 ... I love driving it with a smile
All that matters is that YOU like it 👍
I've had other 911's with the manual, and I still say PDK is the way to go. It's just a better transmission. And you can focus on the road or track and go even faster. Also 18 way seats are awful either go 4 way or full buckets.
Couple of weekends ago I was at the track with another Porsche enthusiast. He was in a turbo S. By the end of the day, do you know what he said to me? I love my PDK but I wish it was more involving like your manual. I think that’s the point. Anyone can have a preference whether it stick shift or PDK but at the end of the day, nothing is more involving than a manual.
I get ceramics just to avoid brake dust. I dont track my 991.2 4 gts, so they last "forever."
Didn't you have a chance to drive one first? Perhaps Porsche experience or another owner? Tgats a lot of money to gamble its your best fit. Sounds like a gts would better suit your taste.
lol test drive? This was one of the first deliveries on the west coast. So no. I had 1 hour decide if I want the allocation. If you try and buy a high end Porsche, you will have a better appreciation for my gamble ;)
@PointShiftDrivsubscribed. Didn't realize no one in your club or at Porsche Experience had one. I drive a 2019 991.2 4 gts. I personally wouldn't take the gamble without a drive in a new model--especially at that price, but in your case given the market, it worked out well to say the least. Glad you're happy in your gts. I enjoy your vids and have sunscribed.
Im not sure if the trans will handle it
The transmission has no issues.
Thanks for showing exactly what goes into raising a car with QJ - man what a faff! That just a lot of back and forth and checking around and in the end you get just a few inches off the ground :(
It’s a bit of work but still worth it.
This video --> “you’re probably gonna have problems but I have had zero.”
I wouldn’t call grinding gears not a problem.
I've had a lot of nice performance cars as my daily driver, but my Giulia QF is the one I miss the most. Too bad they're being discontinued.
Now you can buy it back used at a discount;)
Nice review, thanks!
Gorgeous car and beautifully optioned!!! For me, I'll stay with my 991.2 4 gts. Just prefer that generation for lots of reasons. Can't go wrong with any Porsche imho.
Thank you
Truth at 9:54 I really think Porsche turned the exhaust and internal cabin noise to the driver rather than the public. My selfish to the driver, which, in the end, who is the experience really for? And totally agree that we want our cars to sound good to others as well. 😊
I think the T is about the driver. Sure you can upgrade the exhaust, tune, wheels and suspension if you want. But out of the box is amazing for like 99% of owners.
The Carrera T is obviously a very good choice indeed. With the manual box of course. I would add the front lift. 😎
The T feels like an improved 911 driven fast. Its a great experience
I might have missed it but can you run 87 pump gas or do you need high test? Also, what is the MPG like compared to stock? Great video!
Unfortunately you need to run 91 and up octane. As far as gas mileage I typically see about 1-2 less (mpg).
back in the late 1980s i had my toyota 4x4 pick up truck now that i am a senior i want to be a kid at heart again this gr corolla is great
me too.. My GR is just like this one.
i want one bad. time to get rid of the cobalt and step up bigly
That will be a great upgrade! Do it!
I will say your comparison review on the CS is the best ive seen!👍 However, I think there’s just too much missing from the CS for the premium price you gotta pay to get one. 👎 No center armrest No park assist cameras No rear A/C No adaptive cruise No sunroof option A cheaper priced Xdrive comp can be had with all those options the CS doesn’t have AND you can get the CS steering and CS transmission software upgrade added plus a tune and you’ve got a better optioned similar performing car for less money. CS is a collectors car, nothing more.
I appreciate the sentiment. I do agree that its one of those, "get more from less" situations. This is the car for M lovers that care more about performance than value.
That green is mesmerizing no other car can get away with such color except a Lamborghini also italian
I agree. It’s beautiful in person
Keep
That thing won't last for sh!t in the sun.
They did account for Sun. It’s supposed to be UV resistant. However the sun does eventually win.
this reminds me of my 1st time getting it in 😉
Ya not easy the first couple times doing it 😆
mines 2-3 weeks out from delivery. i specd with buckets and aerokit, rear axle etc. cant wait!
Sounds like an awesome spec
Clicked off the video when he said “Porsche. Carrera. 911. T. “
Good call 👍
Lastfit on my 4runner, great lights and prices are great compared to other over priced companies.
Lasfit is great... especially for the price
ρε i love this car
It’s a good one.
What did adding that do to your MPG on average?
Brought it down 1-2 mpg
@@PointShiftDrive thank you. I've been wrestling with the idea.
@@fulghja it’s not cheap but I like how it adds power without too much compromise
How does it compare with the GTS? I sold my GTS and currently waiting for a T, so I'd like to get your perspective since you've had both! Thanks.
Both great cars. And honestly kind of similar to drive. However the GTS always feels like there is more under your right foot. And you almost never use it. With the T it’s not the case. Also maybe it’s because the T trim is sold in lower numbers but it somehow feels a bit more rare. I Guess I’d say the GTS is a touring car where the T is a where you live car. Either choice is A+! But the T costs so much less, which I really appreciate
Great and informative review!
Glad it was helpful!
Fantastic review man. Very well done! I cant wait to take delivery of mine in August! Think I got one of the last T allocations tbh. I got it in white, black gloss aerokit, carbon roof, carbon bucket, rear seat delete, no RAS, 7speed, no leather package)
That sounds like a track spec, congratulations!
Maybe you can help? I have a stock 2006 Tacoma TRD Prerunner 2WD. The shocks are bad and I will be replacing them. Do I need to replace the strut springs or can I use the old ones? Also, What shocks do you recommend for the truck" I am thinking about getting the Bilstein 4600's. If I want to raise the front level Should I use the 5100's?
You can reuse springs but you will typically want to go with what comes with your new suspension. Also if you are adding weight to your truck, you will want a higher spring rate to compensate
@@PointShiftDrive I will probably be hauling about 100 to 200 lbs in the truck bed. So do you thing the Bilstein 5100s all around with stock coils will be fine? Those coils are like another $300!
@@14mtaylor 200lbs is nothing. Any suspension can handle that. Personally I’d go for Fox over Bilstein. Easier company to deal with should you need customer service
Cadillac ct4 and ct5 are great. V models are fantastic. V Blackwing models are insane.
Love them. Probably the only caddy’s I would consider owning.
Light came at the expense of light weight glass and more interior noise is not worth it. Couldn't understand why so obsessed with lightness since 911 is not that heavy anyway. Car sturdiness is much more desirable. Bought a 2023 992.1 c2s. Solid and not heavy. Love it. Will never buy a T.
If you don’t drive in on a mountain road with lots of runway, you won’t ever understand that lighter is better. So this isn’t for everyone. And that’s okay. 👍 But I don’t understand what you mean by “sturdiness.” The T is no different than any other Carrera for sale today if you mean chassis stiffness.
This model was aimed for people like me that had a 911 with pdk in it, and it just gets boring. You do need a manual for this type of vehicle. Thank you for the video save your money and get a manual 911 folks
I drive a manual T. It is truly a great drivers car. Little bit big and wide, like all 992s. Honestly, these weight reduction stuff is a kind of marketing gimmick. But it maybe contributes to the emotions. Things like light weight glass and light weight batteries are not practical in a daily or weekend driver and expensive to replace. You do not feel 35kg in modern 1500kg sports car anyway. The T is road not track oriented. It really feels like classic Porsche with more of that analogue feeling. I think those is the true sense and the big achievement of this model. I would skip RAS for that reason. But if you like it, go for it. And if you are after performance you should definitely go for PDK or a stronger model.
For sure a road focused car. However you can track this and enjoy. It’s just never going to be a GT3
Good coverage. This is a well engineered car, it reminds me a lot of older 1970’s-1990’s 911 cars, analog (love the manual Trans). If more power is required, a tune is a no brainer.
Is stage one tune is probably fine. I’d argue. It’s not not necessary though.
Love my high country …….
Great truck
Check out the midnight edition!!! ….high country!!!
I don’t mind the hard plastic because it’s an off road truck. When I go hunting or fishing or to the beach I don’t want to have to care about my leather or anything. Just wipe and go
It’s perfect for someone like yourself. Enjoy!
Own a 24 T and love it. I concur with your assessment. The key is to keep it as option free as you can.
That’s hard to do, right?
Those GT 3 skirts were never offered on the 911 T. Great retrofit however
Nice catch ;) It’s so perfect in person. And they’re better than the sport side skirts that cost more than double.
I’m glad you brought up the Z06. I’m sure I’m not the only one crossshoping these two. Yes one is clearly faster and yes one has a better community, but the Z is the last NA high revving V8 and this T may be the last manual 911 without hybrid. Both will be keepers either way.
Great points. Buy what you like. I still think the test drive will help a buyer decide versus just reviews. Drive it and if it speaks to you, god bless! I also think about resale because I don’t keep cars that long. You don’t lose that much with Porsche.
dude its an overpriced freaking Volkswagen with less metal, more plastic, and a way more delicate engine. you wanna go shopping drive in traffic and drive on country roads at speed limit, buy a Volkswagen and see how many more smiles you get thinking you saved 120.000$ PORSCHE , THE CAR COMPANY THAT SELLS YOU PLASTIC AT FINEST EATHER PRICES. recycle quick
I have owned many VWs. They don’t deliver in the same way a Porsche can.
@@PointShiftDrive buy 5 ay once,... and what delivery you need exactly? try a lamborghini...u cant fid as recent good used one at these price tags.... and you know what???.... they actually cone with interiors worth the price
Guilia all day it’s a Beauty
I also have a 2024 T in Ice Grey - love the car but I do think it could use more power. The great thing is these cars are built to handle lots of power from a tune without issue or additional upgraded needed - engine internals are the same for the GTS model and if you are willing to swap the turbos you are at 600hp. The chassis would not be upset at all going to Carrera S power level with the same exact suspension as Carrera S...
I agree! These cars can “handle” lots more power and easily. But the once you add significant more power, the brakes start to show their weakness. So the balance is what gets affected. From the factory the T is pretty happy. But yes, you can tune it and get more if you want. But a track day would be where you notice the unbalance more than anywhere else. Normal everyday driving, no real difference
I like the T but calling it lightweight is gimmicky. The difference between a regular base Carrera and the T is around 30 lbs. That’s less than 1% difference. If I fuel up 4 gallons of gasoline (roughly 30 lbs) less to a Carrera, can I call it lightweight equivalent? Will be there a noticeable performance difference? Some of you reviewers are like Porsche programmed robots. i.e. 9000 rpm!!! Like some miracle. My motorcycle does 14,000 rpm. So what.
I don’t disagree with you that the difference in weight is really not that much between the T and other trims. However, Porsche’s marketing department wants you to believe otherwise. My perspective is that this is the best value in the lineup, regardless of weight. Because it’s the lowest cost manual that you can get. And if you are a drive enthusiast that can afford this price point. You have to put this on your list of cars to evaluate. So your point about lightweight is not really my point. My point is this is a great car that is being offered at a value and we should have more options like this in the industry. I apologize if that point gets lost in the video. That’s on me. Thanks for watching 🙏
Another variant of porsche 911. Omg, seriously??? This is strait out of Apple play book. Mac book m2, m3, m4 same shit different day. You want cruiser ? Buy cayman, want street cat gt3, want off road get roaster want track car buy gtrs. ALl this could have been solved with one car and 4 buttons.. All of this cars carry same flat 6 engine with different tune.
Welcome to the world of Porsche. A 911 for everyone.
Best 911 I’ve driven! And I’ve driven many of them
The T makes sense, even with PDK because it’s still faster than a manual. Also, it comes standard with PASM, Electronic Slip Diff, able to option RAS, and Sport Chrono. You have to option those on an S and can’t get RAS on a base. I personally think it’s the sweet spot, especially if you really love driving.
Can’t agree more! Save money while getting all the important bits
RaceChip weights nothing! Love the looks but for comparable priced, Z4 M40i now with manual.
Not the same driving experience but I get there are other cars for cheaper that offer more.
I totally agree with your take on tuning . I drive a base model g80 m3. I won’t tune it. These engineers are pretty good at what they do. Plus you can only use so much power on the road. Give me a manual and a little bit of power and I’m a happy camper . Cool vid. I honestly didn’t even know about the “T”.
“Upset the balance of the car” Agree to disagree… perfect car to tune Porsche only tuned it this way to not step on toes of S or GTS. Tune is 2500, if you can afford the T you can afford 2500.
I think a stage one tune for the street is no big deal. But if you would’ve taken it to a track, then you start to see if you’ve created some weaknesses primarily in the brakes. Don’t believe me check it out for yourself and get back to me.
Plenty of track over here; well aware. You can do a stage one tune on this car and change nothing else. Even stage 2 tune your not going to change out rotors and pads. If you tracking your changing out pads and rotors anyways. Stage 2 you’re doing filters on this car and thats it. Once again the car is 140-160k anyone buying this car can afford that.
