This guy is hands down the best car reviewer. Everything seems like a breeze for him! So easy and natural, just nails every single review! Smooth flow and excellent transitions from feature to feature!
Many months ago. I commented on one of Mats reviews saying "Review the new 911 or the 718". Mat is connected with his fans & gives the viewers what he wants. I think Mat is the most entertaining & also the best car reviewer.
@16:50 .. not true, they don't pipe sounds thru speakers, that' a BMW thing... they allow the sound to naturally work into the cabin by a opening in the back of the car cabin though.
Porsche does not feed their sound to the speakers. They do pipe some behind the rear seats however which is where the engine lies regardless. Its the same as Ferrari's and lamborghinis. Also, the muted sound is mainly caused by the particulate filter. The 991.2 C2S sounded just as loud as is N/A on revs.
I miss the 3.8 flat six naturally aspirated, the sound of that engine after 4k rpm is pure addiction. Like the brits say “not my cup of tea” this new 911
dji zzah I dont get that. I think it looks horrible. I vastly prefer classic Porsche designs though. I dont think premium brands should go for such „modern“ looks.
@A real bisexual petrol-head City driving a Porsche, you can watch that dial go down like there is a hole at the bottom of the gas tank though ;) But highway is amazing... I get like ca 900 Km with a Boxster, including traffic jams, driving a bit like a pig in between etc.
Props to Porsche again for keeping some analog gauges, the tach is legendary, and they didn't screw with it. They could have made it digital, but kept a wonderful yet small feature that will keep me loving these works of art. Nothing like a 911. Glad it's returned to looking more like the last great 911, the 993. The more the 911 evolves the more it's looking like a classic air cooled 911! Perfection.
0-60 times are about as irrelevant as they've ever been. Each gen 911 is less the driver's car than the one that preceded it, that's the only fact worth stating imo. Give me a 993 or 997.2 any day over this
@@fabers92 You do that, with 5 other people with the outcry for "driver's car, manual, blah blah".. time to move on, and keep driving your 25yr old car while I'm in my 2020 ;) PS, the whole car world has been about speed since prolly like 1930s, so go tell Porsche that 0-60 is irrelevant 😅
I hope you enjoy it, it may be objectively superior in every aspect apart from being fun to drive. I like fun. Speed yeah, but what does it matter on the road? Do you really care if a car is 2.8 seconds to 60 vs 3.2? 4 or 5 seconds is plenty.. plus you’ll have to do a launch mode and look like an idiot. It’s just marketing to make the next gen ‘better’ than the last- as I said, it’s faster but more boring, wider, heavier, expensive etc. What’s the point! Corners are fun, going fast from a traffic light isn’t. I’ll join the future when we’re forced to drive electric cars, until then there’s plenty of good cars around from the 80s/90s/00s and a few from 10s but not many.
I've driven this car. It is amazing both inside out. Really really fast. Imagine the turbo.. if I've had the money I would order one now. Porsche, There really is no substitute
Thanks for the review. I just bought a 992 4s. I thought it would just be like every other car, but in a stylish suit. I was wrong. It is... a monster. I'm in love. The dashboard annoys me though, how the steering wheel cuts of the screens. What were they thinking! Other than that, it's perfection.
Do you have GT steering wheel? I have the standard wheel on mine and it's not been a big deal for me at all. GT wheel is smaller. I love mine 2S. Engine noise is not played through the speakers like Mat says in this review.
@@The_Stanman Ah yes, I have the GT steering wheel, so that must be it. Good to hear that no engine sound is played through the speakers. It makes sense, Porsche would never do that, as they are a purist brand.
@@Diirk the view is still somewhat obstructed with regular wheel, but not as badly. I can see fuel level below 1/2 mark. And agreed. They have 2 physical tubes that go through firewall to allow engine noise to come through. Both closed in normal, one open in Sport, both open in Sports Plus. A great solution that few cars do because it's cheaper to play thru speakers (new Toyota 86 has a tube too). I'd recommend Savagegeese's technical deep-dive into 992 Carrera S - tons of engineering detail.
I feel like the touchscreen would only be annoying depending on your dominant hand, if you are in a left hand drive car and you are right handed it would probably be easier to hit the buttons than if you are right handed in a right hand drive car;
My dad just recently bought a porsche panamera, and he’s right about the annoying hidden buttons on the screen, it took us 10 minutes to figure out how to connect our phones to the cars speakers without connecting to anything else.
Right i was thinking the same. It was from another porshe. This car doesn't have labelled drive modes, you have to check the gauge cluster Everytime you change the drive mode.
Drove this on the Gumball 3000 and I can hands down say that it is a BEAST! Didn’t struggle to keep up with the Huracán Performante, 488, etc. Took it down a few bendy roads headed into Venice and the 4 wheel drive makes the car stick to the ground like hell when you’re flying through them! Hands down BUY IT if you can. I actually prefer it over many of the other cars after that!
15:31 lateral parking: when your front wheels get to the rear wheels of the car behind which you want to park, that's your cue to start rotating the steering wheel in the opposite direction. it really isn't that hard.
Great vid as usual Matt. Mega performance. What will the new GT cars be like !! Glad you mentioned the touch screen. It's not just Porsche. All touch screens in general are difficult (?dangerous) to use whilst driving. I avoid using the touch screen in my 991 !
What S class coupe would have the performance for the price of the 911. I'd choose the front speed bump and torque vectoring options and just go for the regular S over the 4S
I have to say this is the best car review i've ever seen and all car reviews should be like this, meaning intensive because after all people are going buy cars and will want to know everything about them includinbg rear passenger space, boot capacity and everything the guy mentioned. Right, overall i'd prefer to have an Audi TT RS to be honest.
I think you'll find just about all 911s have the two outer gauges blocked by the steering wheel, it's just an abnormality of having gauges running consecutively across the dashboard.
I totally 100% agree with u mat! The new 992 is absolutely brilliant! I mean I am a Porsche fan but it is just a great great car! And it looks fantastic!!
Man I got really lucky and got 20k euro off a brand new 911 992 carrera 4, with all the bells and whistles, in a lovely chalk color... but because i just bought it off the lot, the car came WITHOUT keyless entry...a 130k car that lacks the most basic 100 euro extra function 😂😂😂 still love it though, tuned it to 515hp and its a goddamn monster.
Well the build quality, interior, reliability all go in the favor of the Porsche Also the Porsche has better handling and a Naturaly aspirated engine. Honestly, the 911 is an objectivly *FAAAAR* better car. However, the C8 is a great car if you can't afford the 911
If mat skips the verdict then you know that machine is the one
'Verdict: buy it if you can afford it'
How the hell is there no HUD?!
Or he doesn’t want to upset Porsche by saying that a heavier, larger, 911 is not the direction we like. Oh and about $10k more to boot!
@@c0rse buy it if you can afford its maintenance
Im done with carwow
Nothing better than waking up and watching a Carwow video review during breakfast

how much does it cost in your country?

I can't even afford the Nintendo Switch which is like 3 times cheaper
One day Matt will be so rich that *Carbuyer* and *Doug* will come to review his cars
He wishes 😉
Or he reviewing every new car and old car in his collection, even better
Doug that type of guy
Not as long as he own that piece of shit Porsche nobody want to see it.., get it off the screen... unlike a car theif...
@@Andeng wrong channel bro😂😂
Many months ago. I commented on one of Mats reviews saying "Review the new 911 or the 718".
Mat is connected with his fans & gives the viewers what he wants.
I think Mat is the most entertaining & also the best car reviewer.
he's obviously going to review these cars they're extremely popular, had nothing to do with ur comment lol dont be daft
gigi emadi way to shit on him jesus
@16:50 .. not true, they don't pipe sounds thru speakers, that' a BMW thing... they allow the sound to naturally work into the cabin by a opening in the back of the car cabin though.
“This is lovely. That is lovely. It’s all lovely.”
Wow, what a great review.
It was a lovely review.. 🇬🇧
Haha
Man you give the best reviews, only the information that matters. Great job, love Porsche
The best car review channel
...is The straight pipes!
Very articulate
Matt: "It doesn't plow fields as well as a 2002 John Deere 9630. Click here to check out our video on that."
Haha gold!
When Matt says 'Absolutely', my mind knows 'Blumming' is the next word coming my way
10:20 come on Matt, you modified that exhaust on your 996 😆
No its not
@@nolandderlugner1351 yes he did
At 13:27 they showed the footage from another Porsche, the new 992s steering wheel is different.
Good catch
ishaan aggarwal was looking for this comment lol
it´s the fuking same hahahahahaha 10:01 check steering wheel
One has black finishing and other one has chrome finishes on the wheel. It’s a different car
@@misterpablo14 that is the button for the power boost which lasts for 30 seconds for more acceleration during overtakes.
‘911 2012’ for the Empire State. Reminds me of the Dictator.
Porsche does not feed their sound to the speakers. They do pipe some behind the rear seats however which is where the engine lies regardless. Its the same as Ferrari's and lamborghinis. Also, the muted sound is mainly caused by the particulate filter. The 991.2 C2S sounded just as loud as is N/A on revs.
Old 911 has custom exhaust do its not fair to compare.
Matt said that it comes from the speakers though which means its digital not piped
Wrong.
991.2 did not sound as good as 911.1.
@@eventusvantos2770 maybe it just sounded like that. They have some trick with exhaust to make it sound better inside.
@@Ishaq_Vally it's not fair to compare stock and custom exhaust.
Your dorkiness is brilliant mate
I miss the 3.8 flat six naturally aspirated, the sound of that engine after 4k rpm is pure addiction. Like the brits say “not my cup of tea” this new 911
i have the 2013 911 Carrera S 3.8 L, would never give it up for a turbocharged one
real men drive NA
It will pish prices for 997 down a bit, which is good news
Redemz 😴
I see mat with Porsche I click
Or anything with wheels really
the best looking car ive ever seen, style, speed and class all wrapped into one..peerless
dji zzah I dont get that. I think it looks horrible.

Looks like Mat has been gyming!!!!😁😎🙄
Yummy!!!
I was about to say this myself
Yup.

Your intro reminds me of Doug DeMuro, "THIS, is the new Porsche 911."
I am here after thug bhai bought it
14:36 911 are designed to be daily driven, it's perfectly fine in town
also 14:36 *low gas indicator*

Hey Matt, love your videos. Can you review the Cayman 718 please?
Regards
I did an Review with new 911 Carerra S also on my channel. Here it is : ua-cam.com/video/uUrA1a4eAoU/v-deo.html
I've driven this car. It is amazing both inside out. Really really fast. Imagine the turbo.. if I've had the money I would order one now.
Porsche, There really is no substitute
Your pop up banner is like the infotainment system on a porsche👍😂
Pot kettle and black.
That launch! So clean, and there will be faster models! Wow
I think if you own a Porsche it is hard to go to other can brand after that
It is so lovely to drive and to own

Did this man just said FWD.... Four Wheel Drive? 😂😂😂😂
Front wheel drive
A real bisexual petrol-head Still, the license plate should read AWD
But Four wheel drive is a thing and it’s different to All wheel drive
Yeah i have never herd that said b4 about AWD referred too as FWD being the same
7:22, Ohhhh, Matt is flexing on all of us. lol
Dan S sexyyyyyy
I feel like the touchscreen would only be annoying depending on your dominant hand, if you are in a left hand drive car and you are right handed it would probably be easier to hit the buttons than if you are right handed in a right hand drive car;
Minute 12:18 … you should do that butt kick guys every time you mention the Nürburgring :D

@A real bisexual petrol-head Road Licence and Insurance / year "free" as you wrote it, right? Might be cab passenger or funeral... :)
I'm going to buy one of these when I have too much money!

The clip at 13:25 isnt even on the 992, thats from another car 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Right i was thinking the same. It was from another porshe. This car doesn't have labelled drive modes, you have to check the gauge cluster Everytime you change the drive mode.
I agree with your verdict, this car is flat out amazing!
18:13 Years past, your channel got popular and you got the money 🎉
Oh and don’t forget, if you want your 911 to come with a steering wheel, you’ll need to purchase the “Drive Package” for an extra £2300
Doesn’t FWD usually stand for front wheel drive? 4WD or AWD would have been more suitable
1:18 that's a spider
I do agree with your review and verdict. Just took delivery of my 21 992 C4S two weeks ago "what a freaking car".
10:16 reaction is so funny
I love Carwow
Hey that yellow 987 Boxster is the exact car i had back in 2006!! same wheels and everything ! lol good to see such an old car still on the road
8:15 talking about childseat in a sports car 😂
Fr like I’m trying drive fast !!!
Next time you do a video on Porsche plss show how it deploys its wings when it fly especially the Porche Panamera
I wonder how much preformance the 911 Turbo S will gain....
In 20 years: 0-100 in -0.3 sec :O
@Matthew Hutchinson So 0-100-0 in 0.00 sec then.. That's fast :)
This "Banana" is QUICK 🤪
S class for luxury sedans and this for luxury sports cars . Total benchmarks of their respective classes
Rolls royce for luxury not merc s class according to me
Oh !
He owns a S10 +
That's my favourite.!
Shut up
Okay, I was sold at the launch control start. No sway, no stutter, just absolute perfect clockwork.
9:49 those gear spokes into the leather...

love the colour OMG!
i bought the 996 S new in 2007. It seems a totally different animal now - 0-60 1.5 sec quicker! but only 95 hp more
Great vid as usual Matt. Mega performance. What will the new GT cars be like !! Glad you mentioned the touch screen. It's not just Porsche. All touch screens in general are difficult (?dangerous) to use whilst driving. I avoid using the touch screen in my 991 !
5:40 to ... Why would you compare the feature to that of a Mercedes?
I think the exhaust sound is relative to the individual
Surf Shop aye, some people don’t like the loud exhaust as it gets annoying over time.
Using this as motivation for med school
If only Porsche wouldn't purposefully cripple the Cayman with long gearing, just to sell more 911s...
I did an Review with new 911 Carerra S also on my channel. Here it is : ua-cam.com/video/uUrA1a4eAoU/v-deo.html
What S class coupe would have the performance for the price of the 911. I'd choose the front speed bump and torque vectoring options and just go for the regular S over the 4S
I have to say this is the best car review i've ever seen and all car reviews should be like this, meaning intensive because after all people are going buy cars and will want to know everything about them includinbg rear passenger space, boot capacity and everything the guy mentioned. Right, overall i'd prefer to have an Audi TT RS to be honest.
So what is Matt basically saying is that if you want a new Porsche 911, then you should buy the new Porsche 911. Cheers for that, mate!!!
I think you'll find just about all 911s have the two outer gauges blocked by the steering wheel, it's just an abnormality of having gauges running consecutively across the dashboard.
Love the hear your review`s, you have a very nice calm tone, its really a pleasure to listen to, and of course very well explained :)
I totally 100% agree with u mat! The new 992 is absolutely brilliant! I mean I am a Porsche fan but it is just a great great car! And it looks fantastic!!
The old one is so much smaller! And it sounds SO much better.
Prefer a gear stick , banana yellow mmm , loved the one in BB for life
Matt have you been working out?!
He gets bigger every video
Dan Parry yeah man.... my kind of guy
Matt forgot to mention the 18 lines with 2 led red lines saying 9 11 from both sides on the boot
10:37 do drag race for those cars
Man I got really lucky and got 20k euro off a brand new 911 992 carrera 4, with all the bells and whistles, in a lovely chalk color... but because i just bought it off the lot, the car came WITHOUT keyless entry...a 130k car that lacks the most basic 100 euro extra function 😂😂😂 still love it though, tuned it to 515hp and its a goddamn monster.
I know for sure I’m going to own this car very soon ....
Always awesome, Typical 911 but the Stering Wheel is on wrong side!🤨
It looks great if the color yellow
Pierre From sweden Like your videos much. you are fun and really check the cars good.
I'll wait for the new midengine Vette with 700 hp for under 80k usd over this
you cant compare the craftmanship of a Porsche with a Vette , alone the interior design .
Well the build quality, interior, reliability all go in the favor of the Porsche
Also the Porsche has better handling and a Naturaly aspirated engine.
Honestly, the 911 is an objectivly *FAAAAR* better car.
However, the C8 is a great car if you can't afford the 911
Seems like you've lost one of your cameras at 17:28
I disagree on the wide-body. It moves away from the classic sports car look and now looks and feels like a luxury car.
"Who cares, it's a nine eleven," is the one phrase that says it all.
It’s a nice car... but it’s a Porsche. Lol na I’m joking it’s interior is is fabulous
Nice video. One mistake, you displayed a 991.2’s steering wheel when selected Sport Plus before display8ng launch control.
Tim Cook + Stephen Colbert = Matt Waston
General Aladeen just ordered 20 of these.
Hmmmm. The 850i is still the perfect blend between the 911 and s class for me
The new 911 looks totally different to the old model?.. how do Porsche do it LOL 😂
I agree your verdic mat
Great review team. Thanks.
I thought FWD meant Front Wheel Drive? And 4 wheel drive would be AWD (All wheel drive)
