2020 Porsche 911 (992) turbo S review. Is this the ultimate 911 turbo?

With 650hp and a top speed of 205mph is this new 911 turbo S the ultimate 911 turbo of all time? In this video I compare it first to the original 911 turbo of 1975 and then drive it on road to find out.

[@Beer_Dad1975]

When my kids were this age I took them to a country back-road on a weekend and did burnouts, drifts & donuts with them & they both reacted like this. My wife was not impressed when one of them spilled the beans - but both of them still remember it years later and ask me when we can do it again - I guess they can probably keep it secret now so next time the rear tyres are due for replacement... I hope Henry's mum is understanding!

[@fastdays_1]

I was about to cry with that baby reaction, that's a pure reaction of thrills and enjoyment. Cars are such powerful tools, not just with hp but with real emotions connecting people and creating bonds. And that's why I love cars.

I’ve watched just about every video review out there on this car. I can’t really describe how Harry reviews cars but I will give it a go, Harry has a very subtle way of presenting that doesn’t leave you feeling like you been screamed at for twenty minutes. I get all the info and specs on this car plus demonstrations of its performance without the drama and antics of other reviewers. I’ve been waiting for Harry to get this car for review and in typical Harry fashion he delivers giving you everything you need to know without the manic ramblings from so called automotive experts. Cheers Harry....

Harry nailed the essence of the 911, a supercar you can use every day with two-year service intervals and practicality.

The last minute Henry made my day. Reminds me of my dad taking me out in the old Saab Turbo’s growing up. My first experience of a blown engine that I’ll never forget.

[@steeltrap3800]

I still have my 1988 built 900 Turbo 5 speed 3 door, running ~15psi boost LOL. Love it. About to have 395,000km service and runs as well as ever, a real pleasure to drive. I've had other cars of course, but I don't plan ever to get rid of the crazy old SAAB no matter what else I have alongside it. I was lucky enough to drive that "infamous" 3.3 Turbo 911 in my late teens on many weekends over a few years as the father of one of my closest friends had one (and a 2.7 Carrera) and used to let me drive them (what a great guy he was).

[@johntechwriter]

My Dad was a motorhead but never drove fast with me in the car. Except once, when on a serpentine river road on our way to the family cottage in his Jag Mk. II. This enormous Mercury got on our back bumper and after a couple of minutes of aggravation my Dad downshifted the Moss gearbox and dropped that hulk of pig iron like a bad habit. Squeals of delight from the 10-year-old riding shotgun.
