Porsche is on a roll. But seriously that yellow! It's gorgeous!! At first i was thinking they should've used more carbon fiber instead of gloss black. But the gloss black works blends in quite nicely with the yellow. Beautiful and powerful machine! Speedy recovery, Joe!!🙏🙏🙏
Appreciate you making this vid. even though you are somewhat under the weather! Porsche remains the standard by which sports cars are judge. I can tell this one was special for you!
Growing up in Melbourne, Florida, I worked after school in a body shop that had the minor repair contract for new cars damaged in transit. My boss sent me to the dealership to pick up a minor repair car, a friggin' 1980 Carrera with whaletail, out of their minds and it's been my favorite sports car from then until now. Love the review Team Raiti!!!
7 manual gears. 7 levels of fun. The only cars with 7-speed manuals are this, the Aston Martin Vantage/Vantage AMR when the new gen came out, and all of the C7 Corvette trims. It's a shame more manual transmissions aren't getting an upgrade, meaning 1 more gear. I really think in order to save the manual transmission in North America, it needs to be elevated, whether it's a naturally aspirated 4-cylinder, turbocharged 4-cylinder, a naturally aspirated 6-cylinder, turbocharged 6-cylinder, naturally aspirated 8-cylinder, turbocharged 8-cylinder, or supercharged 8-cylinder. Side note: I had thought the CT5-V Blackwing was going to get the Tremec TR6070 7-speed manual from the old C7 Corvettes. 1 more manual transmission gear would never hurt anybody to have. If I'm being honest, 7-speed manuals should be the norm in today's market.
Nothing short of phenomenal. I do feel more connected in a Lotus, but that's probably me. I have taken plenty of Porsches in trades, drove them all and couldn't sleep that night with an aching gut of yearning and lusting for that car.
@@02hreblue30 Id recommend that you drive an Evora 400/GT. It’s not close on engagement unless you’re in a GT3/4 or on the track. Their financial situation is fine now that Geely owns them.
Anybody here own a Porsche ? Just asking….just asking….. It never ceases to amaze me, the number of “experts” that get their education from behind the page of a magazine, not from behind the wheel of a Porsche….! ?
I know that California has struck the perfect balance between pure engagement and overall performance driving with that Angeles Cress highway :) Great video! 👍
Wow Joe! You know you've truely made it in life when you're THEE Apostle to the Sports Cars and I love the way it looks. The Porsche 911T will be called [THEE ULTIMATE APOSTLE TO THE SUPER CARS] and you need to mention it in your videos.
Wow.. this is truly impressive. I have a '21 Panamera GTS which is a total beast but just a bit on the heavy side. Was looking at a C4S next year but the T just might fit the bill. Thanks for the awesome review !!
The ONLY option missing in the line up for the T is PCCBs. Porsche should offer a 'front PCCB' option with 400 mm rotors. Then again what do I know? lol Porsche. Kicking ass with tiny little flat sixes for over 60 years!! Impressive. Cheers and great review.
Graphite Blue 2017 911 991.2 PDK owner here! A little tweaking of those twin turbos gets you 500 hp as mine…. Love it at 17,000 miles since new and it’s a keeper
If this were a C7 Corvette,then this would be the Grand Sport. This is impressive,but I'm intrigued by the coming 911 Dakar that promises to blow up off-roading as we know it.
Yeeeeeeeeeeeees maaaaaaaan!!! Absolutely worth every penny!!! Gonna go right ahead and ask you to load this 911 on that expedited Massachusetts bound transporter please and thank you very much!!! You and Lori are the best!!! Theeeeeeeee bessssssst!!! Amazing review here!!! And call me crazy, but you hit 911k subscribers on this 911 review!!! This. Is. Awesome!!!
Another great review, Joe. I have had every (base or close to base) model of 911 starting with the 996 but the only one I really enjoyed was the 996, particularly the 2004 40th anniversary in manual. The most recent 992 (2020 Carrera S PDK) was too big, rather brittle and quite uninspiring. I have enjoyed Caymans and Boxsters generally much more.
I have driven quite a few but not all the Porsche’s and also felt the same way as you, that the Cayman in its different versions was the best. I have yet to drive the GT4 but I am guessing I would like that one the best.
JOE ~ you are a wild car man, tearing up those twisties, racing it like you lost the title, 3rd gear all day, butt really dude - you are one hell of a driver, you are good = plus you look kinda cool with a helmet on. (on your track days) your bro/cuz tony
Just love Raiti's Rides' reviews. It's like watching Matt Farah level of detail delivered with the excitement and vigor of John Belushi's Animal house character! Cheers from Charlotte, NC!
The iconic 911 model is still a fantastic sports car. Its too bad they have been priced into the stratosphere in recent years. They are literally unaffordable to most drivers. Even their used 911's are too expensive for most car enthusiasts. I owned 3 Boxsters in the past, they were fantastic handling cars. They were somewhat affordable. Good review Joe.
I consider the 911t a touring car that you can take across Europe or cross country here in N.A. It is also a usable everyday car. Much usability. So I ask... What does it mean "you're not drinking in my 911"?. You buy a car like that to keep in the garage?
For all those wanting to order a new Porsche. You may get a completed car delivered only to have it sit at the dealer for months waiting for a Bose or Burmeister amp. Both Bose and Burmeister are on backorder. My new Turbo GT delivered minus the Burmeister amp. The dealer says Porsche won’t allow the cars to complete delivery till the amps come in. Could be months! So it sits at the dealer lot for months awaiting a plug and play part.
Another great review Joe! Love your enthusiasm! The Porsche 911 has always been my favorite car. Now it’s time for all Raiti’s Rides subscribers to go ON THROTTLE with some turkey and dressing!!!
If you order bucket seats, plenty of companies can offer you the inserts for a couple of grand or so. CXX would probably cost you an arm and a leg tho...
IMO, the Porsche 911 is the sexiest and most practical everyday sports car pretty much around. What an amazing ride Joe, thanks for your great reviews!!
Purchased a 996.2 almost a year ago. Obviously not near the level of this car, but there is something special about 911’s that you have experience to understand.
Thanks for the Video..Great Job....Looks like you were really enjoying the ride...I'm debating between a Corvette C8 and the Carrera T. The T looks and sounds great but its got a bigger price tag...Its a tough decision....Keep the Videos coming...
@@RaitisRidesI watched your video on the GTS and it had pops and crackles from the exhaust. I didn’t notice any in this video. Were you in a different mode?

Happy Thanksgiving Joe. Greeting from Venezuela. My family lives in Clearwater Fl. Going to USA Next year and buying a 2014 Porsche 911 C4S. Can not wait!👍
Ok, honest question... Who would pick this carrera T over the new z06? Both cars will retail for more less similiar price. While the carrera T is a very nice spec, the new z06 will be more comfortable since more advanced magnatelorogical dampers, flat plane crank v8 pushing naturally aspirated 660+ hp, redline to 8k+ and you can take the top off (targa) when you want to for open air experience. I just don't see a scenario when given the choice picking this 911 over the z06. Sorry. But curious to hear what others think? Thoughts anyone?

6 speed is already gimmicky enough. More gears leads to weaker shifts
I like the 718 myself as I am a Boxer engine fan. Not the same class of car but so much fun
I like VW the 718 as well
Nothing short of phenomenal.

Go C8. I think it is the better car but I personally don’t like the look of either car.

At the time of writing this comment Raiti has 911k subs. How fitting
