To put things into perspective. I used to own a 2017 Camaro 2SS with 455hp 455trq. The base 911 is much quicker and that Camaro felt plenty fast as far as I'm concerned.
I’ve been driving a base Carrera and a 4S this summer. The 380 and 440 horsepower numbers are really not much different or the S worth the money IMHO. I have had both 0 to 60 in 3.8 sec. The 4S can get down to 3.5 sec but is that difference worth $24,000? I would rather drive the slower car fast. The S can only really be used / appreciated on the A5 or A6 Autobahn routes in Germany.
Best review in You Tube.. for a first time Porsche guy this is exactly what I needed to hear! I had a C8 and was going to get a Z-06 but wanted something I can enjoy better. This looks like the perfect build!
The other cars are not significantly faster ... they're about 0.3 seconds quicker to 100kmh ... or a couple of seconds a lap on track! Save yourself a ton of cash and buy the Carrera.
991.2 pdk better. There is a noticeable delay with downshifts in manual mode in the 992 which is not present in the 991.2. It’s why I choose a 991.2 4s
There other 911s are just"... Significantly faster ON PAPER"... Unless you just drove the other middle you won't know what you're missing.. Literally...
It's not selling the car if it's actually good, I review other brands and have good and bad commentry. I'm a Mercedes fan but I give credit where it's due
@@JamesSalvatore He calls you saleman because it’s euphemistic insult. He simply wishes harm on anyone who reviews Porsche. He had 3 accounts banned over the past year.
Well, if he is, he’s damned good ! I’ve been # 1 for an allocation of a 2022 Carrera 4 ( yes…a BASE model ) since Oct of 2021. I think sometimes folks get a bit caught up in the “horsepower” mentality. I bought a 2017 Macan S instead of a GTS and put the money in options. I absolutely love the car and can’t remember the last time I missed those “tenths of a second to 60” times. Have done the same with the Carrera…….and don’t think I’ll miss 60…..or 200+ hp. I’m certainly not besmirching those who choose it. It’s your money, your car.
It's boring..... you review too many exotic cars that most of your viewers are not in the right position to buy..... it's getting boring with all these fancy German cars..... review something the common people can actually afford to buy or want to buy.........
Find another reviewer in your price range. Funny how you watch and complain when there are literally hundreds of reviewers for all types of cars. Move on you dope.
Instrumented testing from multiple outlets reveal that the Base can do 0-60 in 3.5s.

You didn’t enjoy the C8? The base 911 is slower though.
The exact car I’d buy, even the exterior and interior color. My dream car.
Alas, six figures between here and there.
Sadly, the base now starts at $116k
Loved your review keep up the good work
See you at Grass Island
Thanks Joe glad you enjoyed
Great review, thanks for sharing.
Awesome review really love the new dash layout
Thanks bud! I've been trying to change the style a bit short and to the point
FYI-you cannot option a manual transmission on a base 992, you have to move up to the S
You are correct. S model only
Who cares
Thanks……very well done review.
And how appropriate…..I take delivery of my 2023 C2 in about 3 days !
you have convinced me...... the standard 911 will do me 😅😅😅😅
You can buy a base Rolex and avoid to pay for any other more expensive models. They show the same thing 😅
Definitely fast enough. Too fast takes away the fun of driving. C2s would be better; perfect balance.
nice video james

Is that a aftermarket exhaust? Or do the new base models not have the rectangular exhaust pipes ?
I have the 2020s and I can never use all the power!
Hey man how’s it been? Great review
Thanks bud finally getting consistent again, it's been tough getting cars but I'm happy to see your still tuning in! How about yourself haha
@@JamesSalvatore all good . And yeah I’m still a fan of the channel
nice

There's nothing unique about this review .. I've seen reviews like this one before..... it's boring now....
