I remember buying the dvd years ago and still have it. I was finally able to buy a 996 turbo a few years ago.

[@shshh-fw9eh]

Congratulations on getting your hands on a 996 turbo. Enjoy one of the finest sports cars to have ever come from Europe.

[@keomo]

Fellow owner here, totally understand your feeling!!! Perhaps one day auto journalists will give proper attention and respect to the 996 Turbo

[@emilpashov1040]

Kevin Boucher how is reliability, and how do the running costs look?

[@golf1diesel]

I wish I will be able to buy one in the future . Been a fan of it ever since its debut.

[@keomo]

This is by far the best review of the 996 Turbo. It is unbiased and factual... shows how bad ass the 996TT really is!

[@herberttuck2170]

Agreed, I can't find another video where the 996 Turbo is being driven so hard around corners

[@Alps6408]

Probably the best designed 911 of all time. Can't really get much more praise than from those of the BM guys, they BEAT the piss out of every car.

[@shshh-fw9eh]

All those tests or reviews from the US and UK feel like bullshit compared to this. These guys really drive. Fast. And know what they're talking about.

[@realyield]

Detailed, unbiased, fact-focused reviews. I wish we still had these! Love the pedal-cam also.

[@turdferg9703]

I used to have this dvd. Back when Best Buy had all sorts of cool stuff for sale

[@tserzz]

The 996 Turbo a sexy design with the famous rock solid "Mezger" engine. Love the Le mons style racing lights awesome. The rear end is of pure porsche character a power haus design. The best Turbo, way ahead of it's time. Really is the ultimate aggressive porsche a total road all weather urban icon.

[@keomo]

This is like the only thorough review of the 996 Turbo at the time of release. Top Gear really disappoints in their lack of interest in the car. I feel that they should have given it more air time.

[@YUSKHAN]

Clarksons top 100 cars it's was the best car in the world in 2000

[@alexavina7960]

Top Gear is (was) extremely biased towards euro and UK cars. To each their own though...

[@keomo]

@@alexavina7960 after watching the show for so long, I realize that it’s actually a complement they made for the 996 Turbo. The car was just too well rounded... they couldn’t create an interesting narrative around it. For some, it may appear lack lustre or boring, but in reality... it’s brilliant!!!

[@nighthawk0077]

The Japanese really do love and know their cars. Meanwhile John Davidson is blathering on about "excellent body control with just a hint of under steer"

[@alexavina7960]

Very good video on how this beast performs when its pushed hard

[@armin1022]

I just love the 996🥰

[@jasonhepton8024]

Great video and commentary, these guys know how to FULL SEND!!! Way to go Porsche🤙🏼

[@sheffmb]

Watch that PSM in the wet. It'll kick pretty hard and sometimes compound your mistake if your in a drift. If you get into a big drift(in the wet), it'll be late to the party and gives you a nice surprise. Then you find it working against you, while regaining control. First hand experience in my daily driven 996.

[@bcut]

best review i've seen on here!!!

[@johnrb9397]

This is the narrator from Iron chef. Very good show. I too love the 996 turbo.

[@cgoldens]

He destroyed those tires! 🤘🏻

[@kmlckd]

Allez cuisine! Pretty sure voice over guy also does original iron chef. Great video

[@FEGTTTSDH]

This type of test are a reference... I want a lot see a test like this for example GT2 RS vs 720s

[@KrustyKlown]

996TT prices have taken off !!! .. did you miss the boat?

[@shshh-fw9eh]

Usual Gan-san doing over 280km/h without a helmet on. He has balls.

[@roshaanhb1675]

6:27 that hand though

[@iltmort]

Very nice test. congratulacions. i love the nxs but the petrodolar german ist to power to Honda Americans csr...

[@dut129]

Damn these guys are fast,

[@KORTOKtheSTRONG]

There can be only one.

[@elia8900]

What is the Adidas shoe model he's using?

[@sainttacobell7264]

Couldn’t really tell it could either be Campus 00’s or Gazelle’s. But Betting my shoe its the Campus 00’s

[@Sajmik6]

are there any video test like this with newer vehicles?

[@bypeyote]

They just release a YT channel.

[@Krezo200]

Izzo Reyes ?

[@thomashumber9762]

SO INFORMATIVE....NOT LIKE JOKEY BRITISH MOTORING REVEIWS.

[@electricfan3243]

Wtf is that an engine under the car? 4:28 how did they do that?

[@onealgifford3722]

mirror bro

[@electricfan3243]

@@onealgifford3722 Oh... makes sense

[@bcut]

@@electricfan3243 lmao! ;)

[@smacdiesel]

That Porsche dominated the competition in its day. Too bad it had those headlights. They should have compared the headlights as well to make fair.

[@sherparoyale]

The headlights are growing on me. Is your view evolving? Just curious if it ends up becoming an isolated classic.

[@jasonandrews457]

now imagine 3x the hp

[@surewin1773]

I wished they tested the GT3. That's the only race worthy Carrera.

[@thof8287]

Bullshit the turbo and GT2 are both capable racecars/trackcars even the 996 Carrera is. People like you know just like to hear themselves talk! You ever been on a track with any of them? Or even driven any of them?

[@Eidrian111]

T Hof yeeesh relax! It was just an asshole commenting bullshit.

[@ebaysell294]

here is a clip of my 996 turbo going up a canyon in malibu last week kzbin.info/www/bejne/oaKyoKBshLykicU

[@frotttiopm8668]

To all american people out there: Please DON'T say "Porsh" to a porsche. It sounds sooo annoying -.-

[@ArchOfficial]

Nakaya's driving in the Porsche was rubbish. I think he made it understeer and then it snapped into oversteer, by himself, not by car design.

[@alimehrozi2828]

Yeah he's only a professional racing driver! what does he know

[@ArchOfficial]

J F A Japanese pro racing driver who might or might not have had a lot of prior experience in RR cars. Just because someone's a pro doesn't mean they're automatically great at everything they do in that field.

[@dendrov]

Nakaya always complain about none japanese cars, its just pride talking not the cars

[@pearlkun27]

He used to be a F3000 driver.

[@Spartan168]

i agree with that. if he was a little more patient and clean, it couldve been just as fast
