- The 911 Carrera T is the lightest from Porsche. On the outside you will find special grey wheels, mirror caps, black side stripe and sport exhaust. On the onside you will find unique 911 T seats and a rear seat delete. Powering the 3.0L twin-turbo flat-6 mated to a 7-speed manual gearbox.

I own a 22 Carrera S Cab with a 7 speed. I just took delivery of my Carrera T last week and drove it through the Georgia mountains. It feels so much sportier than my S. The feel is much more connected to the road. My S is more powerful in the upper rpm range only. I thought it would be a hard choice to pick between the two! I’m selling the S. Great accurate review!
Give your T an ECU tune, and you will certainly not miss the S.
If it makes me smile watching Joe drive it, I could imagine how happy I'd be driving it. Beautiful machine
Always an excellent review delivered with Raiti’s rides ! 911 timeless design ❤️ Porsche .. there is no substitute!
Thanks fir having my back
What a machine. Save the manuals.
I love the way you think
I love the Porsche cars the sounds, the looks, the performance all wrapped in one car!
Porsche. There is no substitute.
You nailed it!
Incorrect but whatever works for you 👏🏿
@@gaara4667 That’s their slogan me and Joe get it. You missed it 😂
Its nearly double the price
That’s what they say. But as I get older, I don’t know about that.
I love, love, love the Carerra T. Especially in manual guise, which is the ONLY way to have it. It's one of my favorite 911's in the lineup. With a simple ECU tune, and you are at 992 GTS power levels and beyond.
I have never been a Porsche fan, but I do respect them. That car sound good "on throttle". Thanks for the video Joe!
Thanks for keeping an open mind
I never liked Porsche either... But then I test drove a GT4. Now, I'm hooked. Wanna step up to a GT3 and eventually GT3 RS. The benefit of Porsche is they've refined the same exact car for almost a century. Helluvathing.
@@Viporghini It's more of a looks thing for me. I own a Corvette C7 Z06. Performance wise it may not be able to compete with a 911, but I just love the looks and performance it gives. If I had the money, I would definitely own a Porsche, but I had to buy the one I wanted. By the way, I have never had the pleasure of driving a Porsche, so I don't know what I'm missing. Haha!
@@terryrutherford2114 I traded my C7.R for a 991.2 4 GTS and love it!
I was hooked after less than a mile of driving. The connection to the road is something you have to experience to understand.
Have owned lots of cars, but this is my first Porsche. I think I'm done now.
When you need a great car, who ya gonna call?
911
That’s the right number
Took delivery of mine today, looking forward to putting some miles on it!
I was on the fence about the T.. now I am sold.. great review… Thank you.
Thank you for everything Raiti’s Ride🙏🏻
You are so very welcome!
Just beautiful what a beauty I would love to be on an empty road and go on full throttle 🔥
It is glorious!
Absolutely love the gunmetal with the white. These colors really complement each other.
You have great taste
Of all your videos I’ve watched Joe. I don’t think I’ve seen one where you were genuinely so excited about being “on throttle”. Thank you for showing us the tears and laughter from the joy of driving a T. I’ve had a Corvette C5 Z06, a C6, and a Porsche 991.1 S. I absolutely love the Corvettes but the 911 is just another level of fun and refinement you can’t go wrong with either. My 992 T (7sp and bucket seats) is coming this spring and I can’t wait. Thanks for the awesome video and your genuine sincerity, two thumbs up!
…….bucket seats ? No kidding…..BUCKET SEATS ???
Fantastic.
Wish I’d known that when I spec’d my 2023 911 !!
( just poking you a bit….nothing serious.)
Traded my C7.R convertible for a 991.2 4 GTS and couldn't be happier. No desire to change in future. I prefer that generation
@@dirkpalmer1067 That’s awesome there’s a car for everyone. I had a 991 and it was a great car. But I much prefer the wide hip 992. The bucket seats just elevated it to another level of sensation and experience.
@net2jon yes. Something for everyone.
There are many reasons I prefer last generation. I have a wide body, but car is a bit smaller. I prefer all analog, the tech is enough for me, extremely well built (I think better than new one--there are videos on this), new one is just not "sports car looking" enough inside for my tastes--piano black, more plastic, gear lever ... I could go on.
I'm happy we're both happy! 😀
M4? Who is cross shopping a 911 with the M4? There is literally $46k price difference between the two!
There are many people actually
Someone who wants the same performance or better at a cheaper price.
It's hard to find anything that competes with the 911
Joe, just stop it already. Get yourself a Porsche.
Amazing review Joe.
Yup!! Joe really wants a Porsche!!
You are so very right about that
Awesome review and filming & enthusiasm !
Yes, no question. Once you go 911, there's no substitute - I own a 2024 Carrera T now.
thank you for the review, love all yours ! Passion.😍
911's are still the bar for a sports car
You crack me up. You bring the fun with your videos along with honest impressions and witty comments. Love the 911T. Want one. For me as a buyer I’m looking at the Corvette, the M4, 2025 CTV Blackwing, the 911T. All bring something different to the table. All have pros and cons. 10 years after purchase I think the 911T is still in your garage and loved, where the others will seem antiquated. My 2 cents. Thanks for bringing fun buddy. Cheers!
As a BMW guy who has a BMW channel, the answer is… yes the 911 is the way to go (unless you have children). BMW does not make a “drivers” coupe anymore. The new Z4 manual will be as close as they’ve gotten in many years, but the 911’s reputation precedes itself.
The M2 Competition (which I own) is easily the best BMW alternative to the 911 and hosts 2+2 for kids. Daily this car and love the ability to take the family on speed runs to dinner.
Thank you for that great honest feedback.
@@jonathanwinston9958thanks for sharing your honest opinion on this one.
@@jonathanwinston9958 M2 is more of a competition to a Cayman.
The iconic Porsche!! Epic!,
You are so very right Angel
Both bmw and this is great. I do love that front end on a bimmer tho.
Everyone is going to have their favorite
Just wish the BMW didn't look like a beaver
I don't know why, but the little designs marking the model of Carrera on the doors is unnecessarily cool, especially compared to the 991's tiny little logos on the doors that might as well never been there
Porsche is ALWAYS a better performance car than the competition. I don't care what anyone else says!!
MAGA 2024!
but its not, this Carrerra T is way behind a M4, and is over 45k more expensive
Hey Joe! Loved this review, man! Stick all the way ! I'm glad they kept the tradition for the folks who really enjoy their interaction with the car. Still waiting when you get inside, a Koenigsegg!
Awesome review
🎉thanks you two!!!❤
I will go Porsche
You are so very welcome Tim
Porsche, no question
I would take any 911 over an m series. No boxsters.
Great job mate
Sweet ride. Very clean look
In Australia, the Porsche price is ridiculously higher than BMW.
The 911 T is expensive as 2.5 times of an M2 price.
Drive this car and feel your endorphins.
You better believe it
Hell yeah!!! I get my T delivered in April. This video pumped me up for my car.
Manual??
@@lancepeterson1975 Yep!
Hows the car? Hope you're driving the snot out of it.
It’s better than what I expected. The handling is sublime and the HP is more than enough for the street. The 7-speed manual is delicious as well, especially the short shifter
I love it Joe! I have the 2019 and I love it
Hey there! Love the vids. If money wasn't an issue and you had to get a manual, would you take the 992 T or GTS?
One of my favorite cars by Porsche I can buy.
Porsche PS count double.
The Carrera T is the best 120k € driver‘s car you can buy today.
The 992 has five relevant trims:
Carrera T - best drivers car on a budget
Turbo S - the best speed beast for the Autobahn
GT3 Touring - best drivers car on a bigger budget
GT3 RS - best race car for the streets
S/T - best car money no option
My dream car
Dream big
Joe and Lori and Steve keep up the good work real true and I love the video real true and I love Porsche 911 look good car
M3 and m4 are faster but id get this anyday it just looks so damn good. Also the sounds the revs the downshifts. Just so 🔥
Your comparing top trim BMW to base engine Porsche?
@@trigganometry168 obviously that's the car that's in question. Not a gts or a turbo s. If that's the case then the porsche would be faster. But this porsche isn't faster then a m3 or m4 xdrive
You don't get it, it's not always about the speed.
@@truthserum5310 u realize this car has a worse lap time then a m3 and m4 competition? Also i know what ur saying but it doesn't apply for this specific porsche model . This is the lowest tier 911 u can buy
@@G82WattsThis T was faster on Tracks in Europe than a M3 or M4. You can read it in many Car Papers!
The 911 is amazing and even looks great in that white. Looks, performance and handling through and through, even if the M4 has more power/torque, no thanks on the BMW.
It’s the real deal - Holyfield !!! 😂
Your the best Raiti ❤
As an EV owner… The wife and I are legit shopping around for a Porsche. Carrera T, and 718 Cayman GT4 (in 6MT). Sold the twin turbo 370Z. Completely different cars, but, it’s for backroad driving, and having fun (not hooning).
I would be so busy enjoying driving that I wouldn't want a sunroof.
I’m right there with you
One word sweet!
You got that right!
Thanks for not being a coward in the corners! Finally someone who knows how to drive. 😂
M4 on this one for sure. This is still nice as heck though.
Thanks Joe
18:14 = eargasm, thisgasm, thatgasm all at the same time! 😆
M4 for me all day long. M4 comp 510bhp with a ultimate pack is for me the ultimate driving machine.
I want 1, but happy with my ZL1 1LE right now.
That totally makes sense to me
Joe amazing review, just don’t even see how this can ever compare to any bmw m series, maybe an m8, even then, just different price and performance points, the m series is based off a family sedan, Porsche is performance performance performance
How beautifully you convey your feelings about a great car to the audience, Joe
I love it ❤❤Thanks a lot.
Awesome video Joe! Just a heads up, but it's Carrara White, not Carrera. It's named after the white marble in Carrara, Italy.
Doesn’t matter……you can’t get it anyway !
Something tells me you want to one of those cars excellent video joe
Eargasm!!! TO THE MAX!!! BEAUTIFUL EXHAUST NOTE! 😍
I see Raiti rocking the Adidas. I got those 3years ago for Christmas and still use them as my daily drivers. Even when going on-throttle with them. They are amazing shoes.
I bought my Dad's 1970 911T. It was a fun car, however, it pinned the smog meter in California, and it always left an embarassing puddle of oil wherever it went, because it had a rotating shaft in an oil bath. Somehow the engineers have managed to squeeze in two turbochargers, which makes the car much more complex and expensive. I sold my 911 for $8k when i was done, now the sales tax is way more than that. The 911 is too expensive now for what it is. Not much point in a car where you are at 65 MPH in first gear.... America doesn't allow us to use this car to even a fraction of its capabilities. A great looking shape, IIRC, the 911 is the second oldest car design still in production (after GM Suburban).
Thanks for sharing your experience
Joe, you have the best job in the World. On throttle!
Of course, and ive never driven either. A sports car built from the ground up is always going to be better than a souped up family car.
The elephants in the room, the Boxster/Cayman does it even better, mid engine, sounds better (981 gen).
Having owned a 992T for two weeks now, I can corroborate everything Joe says. Best 911 in the range imho.
OMG this is IT! Unreal! The only thing is that even this trim needs a back seat (for me) without it looks unfinished. oh and manual. FREAKING BEAUTIFUL! That shifter is insanely comfortable.
love this man! Quick question. Did that particular T have rear axle steering?
I’ve never seen him that excited.. it is a masterpiece like no other
Fantastic ! 🌟
Do you love this car more than than the Civic Type R you bought!! Lmao 😂😂
Great review, what are your thoughts on this vs. a GT350?
My '24 "t" arrives in under 7 weeks...! GT Silver/Blk w/ minimal options (full leather/bose/I'm a sunroof guy/manual of course/added the rear seats in (for all the chicks)). Can't wait !
Viva Porsche!
I’m glad you like this one Luis!
@@RaitisRides Yup
Joe, it all comes down to taste. It kills me how people diss the M4 grill. I have a new 24 M4 competition convertible and I LOVE the Grill! To me, it reminds me of the intakes on an F-4 Phantom jet, not a pig snout. I love the looks so much that I bought an M4 instead of an M8, as I love a V8 over the inline 6. As for porsche, they all look alike to me, a jelly bean look. Never likes a rear engine design either. Again, it all comes down to taste.
Some people like fat chicks too. There is an a$$ for every seat.
1 minute man is a good thing here....., guessing YES~ Taking some deep brea..lol~ Maybe I watched too many episodes of The Office.
Oh yes
Its $150,000 USD. Most people are completely broke. Its a waste even for high income people. Car industry has imploded by greed
24:30. 😂😂 oh boy, he’s finally lost it. He’s braking character folks! 😅.
It’s a beauty
The only flaw I have ever found with Porsche is the price and the weird Honda sounds some of their models/trims make. Rari, Lambo, and big ol American v8s get the sound down so good.
Would make a good getaway car after emptying fort knox.
Now we are talking!
If you can't get an ST or a GT3 Touring or RS, which one would you get?
I’m going GT3 Touring with a 6-speed
Porsche: It Just Makes Sense.💡
I would have optioned a carbon fiber roof. This is an excellent car. I would get one in dark blue.
That would have been a nice touch!
Gentian Blue is my favorite Porsche color.
Very little weight savings when the CF roof is optioned given that the standard roof is aluminum like the rest of the car. The CF roof is for aesthetics which I can appreciate.
Porsche 911 ALL DAY! EVERY DAY! My dream car and of course it will be a manual! As always great review Joe!
I would really love it if that rim color would be as common as gloss black rims have become. Absolutely beautiful in color and design 😍
The only thing that stops me buying a Carerra T is the overinflated Price $15k too much, and the lack of sound deadening.
💯🙏keep doing your thing
You got it Jimmy
Porsche. There is no substitute!!!!
For some reason the 911 in any current iteration doesn't trip my trigger. Everyone has their taste in cars, but these just don't do it for me. Most 911's don't, with the exception of the 1997 Turbo variants.
Thanks for sharing your feelings on this one
@@RaitisRides I know they're solidly engineered and built to last. I owned two 928's in the 1990's and they were great, totally different cars, but very well executed machines from a company that builds drivers cars.
I am one of those that still sees 911's as highly engineered Beetles. Thank you for the reply and keep up the great reviews!
911 T all the way. Curious what they are going to do with the T for the 992.2 line this year. Great video!
Possibly will not be one for the 992.2 at least my Porsche SA of nearly 43 years believes. We’ll see… 48v allegedly coming for the S/GTS so highly possible the manual option for those will be DOA.
If they cancel the T for the 992.2, the value on these 992.1 T’s will skyrocket !!! Grab them while u still can - IF u can still get an allocation.
@@The_Ultimate_Driver I saw a video saying they are getting 3.6NA engines
@@elaineacedo I think it really depends on what the next base Carrera becomes. I don't think the T should be a turbo car.
It will probably be a smaller displacement engine with hybrid assist. Hopefully Porsche will still continue the T.
that sound! wow...totally understand removing sound deadening, remove more.
Z and 911 are my favorites 🔥
You have great taste
@Brian_Eugene_Leethat will be great if they did
Lightness is everything.
Joe really is pushing the car in those corners 😱
If I had to choose Porsche or bmw Porsche always
I can see a 911 in the Raiti garage soon …
Best car journalist in the game
In a word… yes.
