    This was "actually" a pretty good review of the 992. With the exception of hearing that guy say the word "actually" 23 times. True. After I was about half way through, I started the video again, and "actually" counted him saying the word "actually" 23 times. Dear host of this video: do please try to modulate your use of this word, or of any one word, so many times in a short time span. It will make you seem more intelligent.

    I think they've subtle improved the looks substantially, it looks more rounded, more like the classic 911 and the rear doesn't look as long a on the previous models. I really like it.

    Thanks for sharing. No one has mentioned the lowered position of ventilation vents on the centre console which seem far from ideal. Are the vents on top of the dash adjustable and is there much air flow through them?

  • @treyquattro

    it sounds good for a twin turbo car. If only they'd put a decent 6-speed manual in the S or GTS cars (i.e. the one from the GT3) then it'd be perfect since mortals can't even get a sniff of a GT3 without decades of shoving money at Porsche for lesser cars

    If you are doing a comparison between the 992 and 991 appearance, it would have been useful to have both cars side by side. "I don’t know if you remember the old gear selector” - what do you think people are using every day!

    I want a 992 review where someone doesn't say "More evolution than revolution"; trotted out no less than twice here. The stock footage from that test day have been used everywhere too - Would be nicer to see some more original video but I guess time is limited so probably not easy to do.

    This is a 2020 Porsche that is only available with a PDK transmission and won’t be at your dealers until late August or September. It is not the 2019 Porsche. That cup holder in the middle maybe a real pain when they come out with the manual trans and the new gear shifter looks like a miniature electric shaver. Ugh!

    991 no active vents?..... What about the 991.2 ? No mention on the "fake" exhaust pipe in the back, they are not even connected to the tips... No mention on the rear steering, it's not the wider body at work that make it feel nimble. Why the S first? Porsche just increased the price and the best way to camouflage the increase was to shuffle it into the S with PDK package.

    I have a near new '20 992 911S cab which is perhaps my 20th or 25th Porsche from Zagato bodied '60 356 S90 thru '65 911S(yes!) coupe thru early Turbos, Later Turbos, ' 97 Turbo S, CarreraGT(2), 918, GT3(3), & some rarefies '60RS61, '65 Bergspyder 906 004, '73 Carrera RS, etc etc many more! My 992 is simply too big and a bit unhelpfully heavy and very ordinary
    inside even tho pretty well put together as usual. Price? TOO MUCH!! And absurd at what is missing at $150K: no folding mirrors, no FM radio (HUH!?), awful controls confusing & hard
    & unintuitive to find many things like resetting odometer, etc etc. I'll be looking elsewhere next time just about up now?! NSX?

    sich gegenüberliegende Zylinder hat (wie bei einem Boxermotor,
