Got my 991.2 911 turbo S new in 2018. It is an absolutely awesome car. The all wheel drive sticks to the road so well and pulls so hard way up to whatever the average guy would ever think about going.
You don't need to spend £180k to get into an epic fast daily though. My old 996.2 is an absolute steal and only cost what some folk spend on their brake option. *Porsche, there is no substitute.*
Turbo S definitely under appreciated amongst all the GT hoopla. Also I feel it takes a little more seat time to understand the turbo spirit/experience. I daily a 997 turbo s + sharkwerks exhaust.
Agreed, it seems like every reviewer has to mention a GT car whenever the Turbo S is around. They serve completely different purposes, and tbh as an all-rounder, the TurboS can't be beat.
Great quick summary, 10 years ago I bought a manual 2001 996 turbo X50 (turbo S engine with GT2 turbos 😃) privately for £24.5k. Sold it 2 years later for £22.5k. The car was a beast, especially when remapped. In comparison to today’s 991 prices was bargain of the century, regret selling it, probably worth £35k minimum now. Still my 600hp 2010 GT-R still keeps me smiling after 8 years…
I daily a 991.1 TTS with a soul exhaust and cats. The only downside (once you cure the lack of sound from stock exhaust) with the 991.1 is the lack of CarPlay. You get over that with the exhaust and the throttle wide open!
Today legend such a ride, such a good drive. I always listen to rock and the like when I drive does anyone else also almost only listen to heavy music like Metallica or Delta Parole when they drive?
Can you get the golf clubs in it? What happens coinsurance when the car is tuned? What are the servicing costs? I've got £100 k, and I like the idea of performance, but what about the add ons?
Just another ad for Saxton. His content has died! 900k subs but he only gets max 50k view's now. Absolutely shocking and the worst thing is, he keeps rinse and repeating the same shocking content!
New BMW are absolute joke for example the price of a new M3 can get you a McLaren 540, 911, Huracan, R8 V10+ etc with only few miles done. BMW is going down hill, not only ugly, soulless and sound bad but unpleasant to look at
I always thought the 911 turbo would be the perfect daily driver. But sometimes I feel like its not special enough for me. Where the GTR is more rare, sounds better and just overall more unique.
For one video a week Paul,we expect more than that… Cannot believe you said your “Go Pro” was running out, what else have you been doing as your certainly didn’t run them out shooting this video… How about a walk around, a talk through the interior, tech stats, comparison against the `GTR and Merc AMG, it’s all a bit lazy, have you got a job washing cars or something? .
I had the 991 Turbo S cabriolet, I loved it...until it was stolen in London Only thing about it.... it's silent yet potent acceleration, your soul hits your throat
That will teach you for living in LONDON,, I went there 2 months ago , I felt I was either going to be robbed, stabbed . attacked .. I felt the odd one out in my own country .. I felt very unsafe
The most bland fast car I’ve owned. It’s competent and quick but boring. Too quiet, lacks character and does not offer supercar thrills in my opinion. Check out the number of owners most 4 year old cars have had. Why do the owners continue to part with them after such short times?
They sound good tbh. Obviously not n/a screamer good but ok. I’ve had a 997 GT3 among other 911s and after 12 months with my 2017 Turbo S I’m good with the sound 👍
Way too many McLaren's at sub 100k to consider anything else. Before anyone comments about "reliability" ensure you own or have owned one so you may share your personal experience, not interested in things you have read online. 3 Trouble free years in a 650S Spider, nothing in the price range even comes close

What is this world coming to when Sam is driving a Lamborghini and loving it and Paul is driving a Porsche, lol 😂
Hahaha!!
Lol
Yes this is the car to get. Put a tune and exhaust and it’s perfect.

Course you do mate
997 loud and very uncomfortable for a daily

Porsche....There is NO substitute!
For a dailye it's hard to beat, so fast, smooth, comfortabele, and that gearbox is out of this world!
I daily a 991.1 TTS with a soul exhaust and cats. The only downside (once you cure the lack of sound from stock exhaust) with the 991.1 is the lack of CarPlay. You get over that with the exhaust and the throttle wide open!
Why carplay that beneficial though. People with carplay still generally have their phone mounted right ? Spotify and Waze ?
Get yourself a Turbo S then take it to ES Motors for some serious HP. Have a look at Officially Gassed to see what he’s done.
You will never in 20000 years see a person so enthusiastic in a EV😈🤘🏽
So true
I daily a 2017 R8 V10 plus, I bought it for £90k a year ago. Wouldn’t look anywhere else for sub 100k
It's a great 'all-rounder'.
1:28 so Paul actually reads the comments? 😂
Today legend such a ride, such a good drive. I always listen to rock and the like when I drive does anyone else also almost only listen to heavy music like Metallica or Delta Parole when they drive?
This is my dad's old car, he sold it couple of weeks ago to get a vantage,
and hows he like it?
And now you can buy one for £75k so pretty good value. The 992 turbo s price overs are well and finished, over supplied now everything has caught up.
If its a Porsche with centrelocks, well, it can only be excellent.
Does anyone feel like it has too much power? I just got a 996TT and feel like it is too much car for me (vs. say a 4S).
I get what you're saying
Cheapest I can find here is $310,000 or £165,000 for a 2014 in white with 57000kms. Gotta love the Aussie tax
Beautiful looking car from the outside and looks fun to drive however the dash mount view gives off a dreary drab grey interior that's non-appealing.
Why do people say it’s a great daily the boot is tiny and it only has two seats
Extra luggage space on back seats 👍
Would you have this 911 or a newer GT4?
this 911 hands down
Had the GT4, then a 991 GT3. Just changed the GT3 for a 991.2 Turbo S and it’s phenomenal
The Turbo S is a masterpiece no matter the model year...
Although they are crazy fast, they don't look the part imo. I'd take a slower lambo or ferrari with the added engine noise and looks
Wait until you’re 20 and your mind matures a bit
@@Unaboner 20? Still a child at 20 honestly.
Yeah it's 100k car in England and a 200k car in Ireland cause of vrt robbery at its highest level
Demand is on all used cars atm
What about the NSX, the underdog and also around the 100k mark... if not a turbo S then rather an NSX not an R8... see too many of them
Can you get the golf clubs in it? What happens coinsurance when the car is tuned? What are the servicing costs? I've got £100 k, and I like the idea of performance, but what about the add ons?
Turbo and not even a question
Not driven one before. Take my stock 991.2, and compare. GTR compared to Turbo s, nahhhhh never. Porsche all day every day
Get it!!
Paul should get an AMG GTR
Your GTR is better in every way! The GTR has way way way more character and definitely more exciting than the 911!
I see, a jdm fanboy
Username checks out
That looks great at 30mph
AMG GTR with opus 777hp package
Could be
Every f video saxton 4x4 its a joke how many subs you have and your content
Just another ad for Saxton. His content has died! 900k subs but he only gets max 50k view's now. Absolutely shocking and the worst thing is, he keeps rinse and repeating the same shocking content!
Saxton charging £100k for that. I’ve been looking at better spec 991 turbo s for around £86k. Totally agree he’s an advocate for that car dealership
New BMW are absolute joke for example the price of a new M3 can get you a McLaren 540, 911, Huracan, R8 V10+ etc with only few miles done. BMW is going down hill, not only ugly, soulless and sound bad but unpleasant to look at
Huracans start at 120 decent ones 150+
R8 for sure
Saw this on auto trader and was interested in buying until I saw Paul rag it around the country roads
So you'd drive it like a Yaris? Sad person
Me sitting here in 2023 6:32
For £100k you could get a 991.2
I had a gen 1, 40k later, a couple of sensible cars between, then purchased.991.2. Sooooo much better and quicker
991.2 turbo s or 991.2 turbo because if its latter not sure how that can compete 991.2 Vs 991.1 turbo s ...
I always thought the 911 turbo would be the perfect daily driver. But sometimes I feel like its not special enough for me. Where the GTR is more rare, sounds better and just overall more unique.
* 580 BHP. and that’s Porsche BHP 😉
For one video a week Paul,we expect more than that… Cannot believe you said your “Go Pro” was running out, what else have you been doing as your certainly didn’t run them out shooting this video… How about a walk around, a talk through the interior, tech stats, comparison against the `GTR and Merc AMG, it’s all a bit lazy, have you got a job washing cars or something? .
And maybe give the tyre a kick…😀
SuperCool
Look up the dimensions for the 991.2 Turbo S vs the 992 Turbo S and you'll find they're exactly the same size.
666th view :)
I was surprised when he said 992 is a lot bigger and this is go kart size lol
992 is a little bigger
Honda NSX
Think you have done this video twice before
R8 V10 over that turbo. Just sounds like a golf r
Nah its the audi r8 v10 plus 16 plate (new shape)
They were 80 now 90 due to all cars going up in value
Take a audi r8 all day over the turbo s
GTR is chavvy
I'd rather new 992 Carrera S, bit slower but who cares?
86 comments wow
👍👍
I had the 991 Turbo S cabriolet, I loved it...until it was stolen in London
Only thing about it.... it's silent yet potent
acceleration, your soul hits your throat
That will teach you for living in LONDON,, I went there 2 months ago , I felt I was either going to be robbed, stabbed . attacked .. I felt the odd one out in my own country .. I felt very unsafe
Does insurance give you a fair price when your car is stolen? I bet insurance is a fortune now
@@markthoughtswithukrainemas2072 not enough of the white man, I take it?
Looosers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That aint no supercar. it's a great sports car though.
Issit really easier to say posh instead of por-sche? 🤣

That has got to be the most bland looking turbo s.
Supercar with no sound and fun = useless.
They sound good tbh. Obviously not n/a screamer good but ok. I’ve had a 997 GT3 among other 911s and after 12 months with my 2017 Turbo S I’m good with the sound 👍

Finger nails....
According to me research, Porsche is supposed to be pronounced "Por-sha", 2 syllables.
R8 is way better than this vacuum cleaner.
People will be kicking themselves in few weeks if they miss the opportunity to buy and invest in bitcoin
Investing in cryptocurrency is one of the best chance
Stocks are good crypto is better
Sorry R8 V10 plus for me mate . Turbo s isn’t a super car either but great sports car .
