manuals are faster to launch when done correctly as you use both feet while with auto you tend to only use 1 foot. Manual: left foot on clutch right foot on accelerator and then bump the clutch, auto: right foot on brake transferred to accelerator
@@jadamsnz I mean it depends, generationally you could look at V12 Ferraris/Lamborghinis through the years, and the V8s. On the less numerous generations side of things, they've already done the RS6, so maybe an all M5 or something-class AMG race. An all MX-5 race could work, so could an all Jaguar D/E/F-type race. There are so many I want to see
Absolutely loved this vid. Porsche is my favorite brand. As for more generation races, something that goes back to at least the 70s, so Mustang and Corvette for sure.
The 996 with remap, exhaust work and air flow is still pertinent if you get it done. D.M.S automotive will do the lot for around 2K and it will be a missile that will stun new variants. I had mine mapped to a safe 670 bhp with 700nm torque. Wish i still had it, the newer one lacks so much character and is a GT rather than a sports coupe. Viva 996
993 all day for me to mate. My dream car has always been the 959 supercar. And to me, the 993 Turbo is the budget friendly version of that. It comes from the air cooled, analog era, but it has the clever 4wd system, an aluminium multilink rear suspension, and things like ABS and airbags. However, the 993 looks better than the 959, and you can daily it with lots of miles. Parts are available and very affordable, compared to the 959.
I personally can't decide between the 964 and the 993. They are very similar but with subtle differences; the 964 has that iconic, oldskool, chonky bodywork and whale-tail spoiler, whereas the 993 takes those cues and makes them a little more curvy and streamlined. Thank you CarWOW 🙌
Regulations and safety dont make cars good looking but you have to give it to porsche how they keep making them so much quicker but still keep the same design with the flat 6 in the back
Each generation gets even bigger, heavier and full of more unnecessary motors and toys. I don't think I'll appreciate this years 911 for at least 10 years until the next generation abominations are being produced, probably with 2500kg, 23" rims, 3000bhp and self opening doors.
@@robertely686 every cars get bigger and heavier were you been the las 20 years? Porsche is the only proper driver's car that keep making Lighweights manual editions of any 911. And the only one that want to keep the ICE engine, GT3's is the best you can have today for the track.
If you love Porsche's go to your nearest "Porsche Experience". I went to the one in Atlanta and had an amazing time. Drove and raced around in 992 Turbo S and Taycan Turbo S.
@TheMaster_5209 Yeah bro you'll love it. You get to do slalom, road course, skidpad test, launch control and wet pad. You have choice of what car or cars you want to experience. I chose to do the Taycan Turbo S/911 Turbo S combo. You got cars like the 911 GT3, Panamera Turbo, Cayenne, etc.. you can choose from. You do 1 car you get 1 1/2 hours with it. 2 cars its split 45 min each.
The driver of the older Porsches were probably having more fun. Acceleration is fun but is very 1-dimensional, especially with an automatic transmission.
yep! thats why the 997 is considered the "Modern Classic" and will be the next collectable (if it hasn't started already). Best of both worlds! Plus you can get the turbo in a stick!
Mat you legend! Making us believe you've hit the peak and then unveiling a higher peak soon after. As a huge fan of all Porsches old and new, this is simply just a dream come true! Thanks mate!
Only one I could afford at the moment would be the 996 or 997. Either one of those cars with a little tweaking can turn them into a whole different beast👌 The older I get, the more I appreciate Porsche👏
Air cooled vs water cooled 911 , matt you've made it one of the most hyped drag race ever , you allways doing some crazy drag races that never meant going to be.
This must have been a logistical bowl of spaghetti to pull off. Very impressive and great fun to watch. Mat, I’m so jealous. Great that this channel keeps on making amazing stuff to watch!
Now, this is epic. Best drag race lineup i have ever seen on youtube. Actually greatest lineup you can think off in your dreams. Keep on going, mad Mat "UA-cam Hall of Famer" Watson.
Me too, I wasn't into Porsche as a teenager but then two things happened: saw the 996 Turbo into a Need for Speed video game and a couple years later someone in my neighborhood was driving a 996 GT2, from then I was hooked up for life
Having the 997 and 991 be Turbo S models, and the 996 be a tiptronic, kinda skewed that end of the spectrum, but the step from 996 to 997 was probably one of the bigger ones in the car's history.
Nah I don’t see it beating the 991, impossible. I’ve roll raced a 997 turbo, 991 turbo s and 992 turbo s in my 992 C2S and I can tell you there’s no way.
Finally a video that can show the decades of progress in one video. imagine in another 50 years -60 years of Porsche will make the newest generations look like the older generations in this video.
You can really tell how much the 997.2 Turbo S was ahead of his game back in the day - sams as the 992 is nowadays. Just imagine it’s a 1/4 car with 10.9s in 2010.. I really love the 997.2 but went for a 991.2, the drivability is on another level
Just how good do the 964 and 993 look??? Fantastic aircooled 911's. New ones have lost their 'flair'. Fastest is not every thing, driver emotion is everything which the 964 and 993 bring in bucket loads. Owed a 993TT for 10years.
930 Turbo without hesitation. All of the others I see almost weekly. GT3, GT2 with massive wings and such. But the 930 is so integrated from tail to fender flairs. Far from perfect, the 930 for long time Porsche fans is so cool and raw.
The most reliable sports car out there , both the regular 911 and the 911 turbo . No other brand of super sports car can match the reliability of these cars . The acceleration of the last 911 turbo is still one of the fastest . Porsche will come next year with completely new and revolutionary designed turbos, which pick up even faster and deliver even more power than the current ones. I think that the 911 turbo built in 2023 will be the sports car with combustion engine to beat in terms of acceleration.
Loved this! I am a rare one that really likes the 996. Kind of wish Matt’s 996 example wasn’t a tip so it could compare closer to the 993 and 964. The 997-992 are on different levels with their gearboxes. Great race! One of my favorites, if not my favorite.
Do a Japanese classics drag race. Imagine. Celica, Supra, Integra, WRX, Civic, Skyline, etc may not be a close race but boy seeing those together just would be a wet dream. Obvs I mean these at their heights not the newest ones.
Guys you should use a drone for your drag-races.. imagine following all these cars and looking at them from above while they race each other, wouldn't that be amazing?
These cars are for more sophisticated people, who like the performance, the comfort, the styling and the speed. Noise is just noise, not performance. Sometimes is good, but not everytime.
@@luisnabais Nah, whomever owns a 911 and has the slightest passion for racing will slap on an exhaust. Exhausts do help with performance and noise is one of the most exciting things about having a nice car and engine. Sophisticated owners are usually the boring dentists and lawyers.
911 is my favourite car ever, doesn't matter what year. Though if I had to pick one, it would be the 911 classic they made, top gear had one on. That was the old school looks with modern-day tech. A dream.
I don't care about the acceleration. I'd take the 930, 964 and 993 Turbo any day of the week over the bloated new 911's. The air cooled are the real thing. They're beautiful and have the original Porsche spirit.
You do realize Porsche started because Ferdinand was unhappy with what he could buy, and thought "i can make a better one". Exactly that is visible here. They get better and still have a fantastic build Quality.
@@marisasob Sure. The new ones are much faster and much better in every aspect. But they are not even nearly as beautiful and classic as the old ones. Just my personal opinion. Cheers.
Huge Porsche 911 fan, and I'd be hard pressed to pick a favorite. But it would probably be the 930 or 964 but I love them all, 993's are cool because they stick out in a very early 90's way, 996, the one none wants is still cool as well! There was a 996 Carrera S for sale here for just 20000€ or slightly below a few years ago, if only I had been in a position to strike, I would have in a heartbeat, it was blue. Was waiting for my father sometime mid 90's, an old couple come walking by heading for their garage behind me. They open the doors and inside sits a stunning all black 930 Turbo, will never forget that! They backed it out and drove off... They where probably easily in their late 60's or maybe even 70's if I recall, pretty awesome! :D Might been owned from new, I will never know. Thinking about it, I think Becky's 930 is the winner, it might not be the fastest of the bunch, but yeah, best looking... and thats hard for me to say, such a Porsche fan, I love em all too much! xD Hope this did not turn out too expensive for her! :O
I’ve always wanted a video like this but for Corvettes. You could also have some interesting and cool little line-up comparisons Every base model, every stingray(C7 and C8 base models would be in both of these races), every Z06, every grand sport, and every ZR1. I would love to see all, or even just one of those. That would make my life
Always have been a huge Porsche fan. As much as I love the new Porsches and the speed, grip and comfort they have, my absolute dream car is and always will be a 1986 Porsche 930 Turbo in Guards Red / Black.
Hi there, just a small point. When Matt says 'Mezger goodness' after the revving of the 997.2 he's actually incorrect. The 997.1 turbo had the Mezger unit but this looks to be a .2 which did not use this engine.
Hi Mat here! So if you could have one of these 911 Turbos which would it be?

Legit though the same thing when I watched
Every gereration geht's more hp, and more control. But better? The nicest one is the one that still has hydrolic steering assist. I can't believe they've ditched that.

Not even the most fun Porsche. A Boxer S 6 cilinder is so much more fun.
Huge respect for all 911s despite not being a car I lust over, but this is one of the best videos you have done Matt.

The 993 driver had the most skill. The way it launched better then the autos is nuts.

This should be shot with a drone... would love the bird perspective with a overall view
And just one race, start to finish, with no fucking edits !

Do a Japanese classics drag race. Imagine. Celica, Supra, Integra, WRX, Civic, Skyline, etc may not be a close race but boy seeing those together just would be a wet dream. Obvs I mean these at their heights not the newest ones.
Impossible to even get one of these that's stock or close to stock.
@@jeezitsmad4373 wannabe cars ? Hmm...... I highly doubt it.....obviously not comparing with other cars
@@jeezitsmad4373 that's just ignorance you Muppet. These cars are just as iconic both in Motorsport and as benchmark setters for road cars.
@@jeezitsmad4373 not even just expensive to not much more than these lot
@@jeezitsmad4373 hating for hating's sake. Sad life for some. These cars inspired some of your favourites today so idk what you're on about
The 930 and 964 are beautiful cars.
Guys you should use a drone for your drag-races.. imagine following all these cars and looking at them from above while they race each other, wouldn't that be amazing?
Future YT classic.. Well done to all who made this vid.. 993 and older are for sure the best looking. 997 for the daily out of all of them.
It's amazing how so many high performance sportscars can sound like vacuums. Really cool idea though, good job on the video!
Ya they have massive mufflers. If they get straight piped, they are the loudest cars ever. Flat 6’s make crazy noise👌
If you put a nice exhaust they sound litteraly Incredible. The classic Rowl of the Aircooled is one of the best sound, just need a exhaust.
These cars are for more sophisticated people, who like the performance, the comfort, the styling and the speed. Noise is just noise, not performance. Sometimes is good, but not everytime.
@@luisnabais Nah, whomever owns a 911 and has the slightest passion for racing will slap on an exhaust. Exhausts do help with performance and noise is one of the most exciting things about having a nice car and engine. Sophisticated owners are usually the boring dentists and lawyers.
U obviously never rode in a porsche its like a go cart shits so loud too its down shifts so nice
4:56 that’s a hell of a gear shift 😂😂😂
That was the most scientifically accurate brake test I have ever seen
😂👌
10:22 the way Mat said that laughed my socks off! 😂😂😂
The best video ever created ! We’ll done Matt! ❤️❤️❤️
@e dont copy my name you 1 year old
992 is gonna win no matter what but they look cool af also such a nice race
That 993 is beautiful 🙌
911 is my favourite car ever, doesn't matter what year. Though if I had to pick one, it would be the 911 classic they made, top gear had one on. That was the old school looks with modern-day tech. A dream.
4:32 the movement on the 991 exhaust is a thing of beauty
That 964 sounds so amazing!
This video is a 'wet dream' for ANY Porsche lover! I would take any one of those cars...to own, to drive, to stare at!! Great job all!!
Would’ve been interesting to see the 996 difference to its predecessors if it were a manual vs auto (pre-PDK)
Manual is much faster, and would probably keep up with the newer ones. That 5 speed slushbox is junk
@@villepekkala - my thoughts exactly
@@villepekkala The 997.1 tiptronic was almost a half second quicker to 60 than the manual.
@@ericjohnson3332 Irrelevant on the street. It's simply not the same driving experience.
Absolutely AWESOME drag race! Matt, you're SMASHING it recently with collabs, first Misha, now Becky Evans! Keep it up ❤❤❤
What a lineup, I love them all. I picked up a 997.2 Turbo S last year.
That’s amazing bud!
Great choice
Amazing car congratulations
Broke fool I pick up a Bugatti Korean edition 320 mph
@@KimChi4Life that’s too poor for my taste tbh
0:02 Instead of "oh my god" I understood "I don't like cars" and I was like wtf
The 993 is a beautiful classic 911 shape.
Great to see Becky on Carwow, can you get her on more often pretty please
993 or 997 (or maybe 991) for me personally.
Although to be fair, while the non-Turbo 964 isnt that special, the 964 Turbo looks GREAT!
Only Mat Can Do This . Hats Off To You Man
The only difference on look is the wing getting smaller over time 😂
And the rear window.
Facts! And the hips getting wider each gen
That 993…..😍
I don't care about the acceleration. I'd take the 930, 964 and 993 Turbo any day of the week over the bloated new 911's. The air cooled are the real thing. They're beautiful and have the original Porsche spirit.
They all have the Porsche spirit. I have had 3 or those and they are all Porsche through and throuh.
You do realize Porsche started because Ferdinand was unhappy with what he could buy, and thought "i can make a better one". Exactly that is visible here. They get better and still have a fantastic build Quality.
@@marisasob Sure. The new ones are much faster and much better in every aspect. But they are not even nearly as beautiful and classic as the old ones. Just my personal opinion. Cheers.
@@detonator2112 in that aspect i completely agree!
Any Porsche 911 variation is my dream car but Becky's sounded the best for sure, they all performed wonderfully.
964 & 993. Best 911 turbo's ever. Raj is a lucky man 👌
As a 996 owner and just a 911 fan, this was the best video you’ve ever done Mat
THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO FROM CARWOW, PERIOD.
Huge Porsche 911 fan, and I'd be hard pressed to pick a favorite. But it would probably be the 930 or 964 but I love them all, 993's are cool because they stick out in a very early 90's way, 996, the one none wants is still cool as well! There was a 996 Carrera S for sale here for just 20000€ or slightly below a few years ago, if only I had been in a position to strike, I would have in a heartbeat, it was blue.
Was waiting for my father sometime mid 90's, an old couple come walking by heading for their garage behind me. They open the doors and inside sits a stunning all black 930 Turbo, will never forget that! They backed it out and drove off... They where probably easily in their late 60's or maybe even 70's if I recall, pretty awesome! :D Might been owned from new, I will never know.
Thinking about it, I think Becky's 930 is the winner, it might not be the fastest of the bunch, but yeah, best looking... and thats hard for me to say, such a Porsche fan, I love em all too much! xD
Hope this did not turn out too expensive for her! :O
That 993 though 😍
I’ve always wanted a video like this but for Corvettes. You could also have some interesting and cool little line-up comparisons
Every base model, every stingray(C7 and C8 base models would be in both of these races), every Z06, every grand sport, and every ZR1. I would love to see all, or even just one of those. That would make my life
can you do more of these? Every Golf GTI would be cool
No
They aren't exclusive
@@guycha0s380 neither is your mum
@@guycha0s380 so what?
@@guycha0s380 Like a Porsche 911 is exclusive?🤣
Definitely the coolest and sexiest drag race by far what you have put on carwow Matt . Loved them air cooled Porsche’s they looked amazing 👍
993 is still so gorgeous ... perfect balance between retro and modern 911´s
The best looking Porsche ever
Always have been a huge Porsche fan. As much as I love the new Porsches and the speed, grip and comfort they have, my absolute dream car is and always will be a 1986 Porsche 930 Turbo in Guards Red / Black.
Congratulations for atleast 10 million views already...
Hi there, just a small point. When Matt says 'Mezger goodness' after the revving of the 997.2 he's actually incorrect. The 997.1 turbo had the Mezger unit but this looks to be a .2 which did not use this engine.
You need Becky on the review team. Love manual gearboxes on drag races.. best one ever! 👍
Let's admit that mat is the best car reviewer ever
Yes
He's good but not the best.
This is pretty awesome having all the generations together
This is the best video ever, i just bought 997 turbo and I’m soooo happy 😃.
Although slower, I'd definitely go for any one of the older three Porsche's for their sound, looks and rising position.
Exactly what I was going to type... It's the spoilers for me 😍
