- Hey all - welcome back to CMD
Recently - Tom Hale and the team at Porsche centre Nottingham invited me to test drive this example of their used stock.
The Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS.
Join me for a drive to discuss the good, the bad and the depreciation!
Cheers for tuning in

I have one of these. They are unbelievably good. Best thing I’ve ever bought. Thanks for the video btw, nicely done.
Oh awesome - thank you
Some days it calms you, some days it terrifies you, most days it makes you smile A LOT.
I often find in my manual you become so focused on how the car works with you, you forget about cup holders, the Bose speakers, outer dial visibility, depreciation. Makes you feel like a driving god! I could see it in your eyes too LOL.
There were a few great moments chap yes 😛
My buddy you should be a Porsche dealer cause you just sold the car for me, now a Porsche is my dream car lol
I’ll take that chap - thank you ☺️
Agreed. As an all-rounder, the GTS4 is tough to top. The level of sheer speed, cornering and confidence...well, as a kid from the '70's, I wouldn't have thought this even possible.👍
Thank you for the view and comments chap
Absolutely Incredible. Picking up one next week. Beyond Excited. Great video.
I bet you are chap - enjoy new car day
Great review again 👍 I’m booked in to test drive one in a couple of weeks, looking forward to it even more after seeing that. You should be able to walk into any dealer in the country and ask for the keys to anything you want to review with the good causes you’re doing!
Thank you for the view and thoughts chap - enjoy the test drive 👍
Sounds awesome! Great video as always CMD. :)
Thank you
This video has smashed it, keep it the good work!
Thanks for the visit x
This is the car i need in my life, on reflection of what you were saying about depreciation, if you take out a PCP deal, and never pay off the finance, then we might as well rent a car like volvo are starting to do.
There is that chap - think eventually we will pick them up like boris bikes!
Great video again boy!! 👏🏼
Thanks again!
Has 5 Porsches my past was a brand new 992 S next is the GTS Ive test driven it many times
Great to know 👍
Lovely video Dale ........keep up the good work
Cheers Vic - appreciated buddy
Fantastic as always
Keep it up
Ps what are your lenses
Like the blue tint
Can you tell me make please
Tim
Cheers fella
Lenses have blue tint to help with screens as I look at monitors for a living - any optician should do them
Great video. Enjoyed it. I have a question for you. How much of a difference does the sports exhaust make on a 992 from inside the cabin?
Hi Tobi
Hard to say as I have not driven a 911 without this. I would say inside the cabin is noticeable difference - however radio on / music going you wouldn’t notice too much
Interesting. I have a 718 GTS4.0. Pressing the sports exhaust button transforms the car. If I ever replace it with a 992 I was thinking about how important sports exhaust would be. It doesn’t sound like it makes the same amount of difference. I have only test driven the 992 without this option and it was fine. But it’s nowhere near the 718 4.0 experience when it’s on boil.
I would say the sports exhaust is an absolute must chap. Improves it enough to warrant cost and will defo help with resale
Have the last of the 991.2 GTS and that is quick can only imagine the difference. Tho now looking at 992 turbo s just for the unmatched rapidity need that in my mid life adventure.
Yeah good pound for punch there now too…
thank you for your charity
My pleasure
Fellow 992 s owner here.. How did you find the ride quality compared to your S? Did you jump out of it straight back in to your own? It really does look firm from your video. I am wondering if it is worth taking the step up but as I use it as a daily not sure if keeping the S would be a better option.
Hi there
Yes jumped straight back into my S
In truth - I didn’t find the ride much different - depending on usage and what your after would dictate your decision here but if you have any doubts I would recommend testing yourself.
For me - no major differences - the road I drove was HORRIFIC and the car soaked up a good proportion.
If rode comfortably is a high priority - maybe I would avoid it.
They are definitely the sweet spot. I’ve had 991.2 C4 GTS, Turbo S and now GT3 but the GTS somehow combines and compromises the other two
Great feedback- cheers
Thanks for making me want a GTS next! 🤦🏻♂️ I have the 991.2 C4S and the AWD is just so confidence inspiring, it’s cheating according to purists, but I really like it.
Your very welcome 😛
I have a fair amount of time behind the wheel of an almost identically specced GTS, and it’s just too firm for me. I also hate the way the glass roof ruins the silhouette of the car.
Thanks for the view and thoughts
Coupe is not pronounced “coop” 😂
Common as muck me chap - “coop” for me
Giga is pronounced jiga too
Anything else 😛
Hahaha coops for for chickens 😂 It’s a French word pronounced ‘Koo-pay’
