Considering the amount of speed bumps & suspension breaking potholes in a lot of our cities, this would make a good daily driver

[@bobcortez9471]

For that reason, I’d have this over my 992 S any day.

[@larsstougaard7097]

Yes and you can live in it full time and start van life with that tent on top⛺️. Home free 😀

[@J-_-S]

@@larsstougaard7097 cant be serious :D

[@larsstougaard7097]

@Julius Sama with the house and energy prices + inflation & coming recession in the UK it could be cheaper just to get a Dakar and live a simpler life ( if you are in the UK) 😅

[@2fast2nick]

Haha I was thinking the same thing. It would be kind of nice driving a 911 that you could just bomb over potholes

[@scottmeredith3359]

I’ve never wanted a Porsche as bad as I want this.

[@whosdondada]

They might make more versions of the Dakar

[@olivergriffiths4445]

The cinematography in the first segment was amazing, well done to the production crew 👏👏

[@marcelmotorzoneza9626]

exactly

[@Frankmejor]

I think it was inspired by the ford raptor's ad. I watch it, often.

[@syntetiskvag4458]

If Rory was in anything else you might have been afraid for his safety

[@nickorette]

Shamelessly stolen from the RAM TRX "Sandman" trailer

[@AutoTraderTV]

@@nickorette I'd never seen that before I saw this comment. Fair enough, they beat me to it. If I'd seen it there's no way I'd have copied it.

[@LH_94]

In an era moving away from combustion engines, it's great to see Porsche and Lamborghini reluctant to let them go, and not just by releasing another regular model, but with left-field variants like the 911 Dakar and Huracán Sterrato. Keep the fires burning 🔥

[@pollumG]

They're gonna sell big time imo

[@JTM610]

@@pollumG impossible because they're in limited numbers

Companies aren’t planning (but for a few) to move away from gas completely until they are forced to from what I can tell. Don’t worry bud, ur gas engines will be around for many a day.

[@theweeknd2725]

Damnn Huracan Sterrato is so good too 🔥

[@lovelehstuff]

My feed just got bombed with 911 Dakar reviews, the embargo is a funny thing 😂. Autotrader will definetly produce the best review of the Dakar

[@ajfreshkid]

Legit the only vid I decided to watch

[@aluszewski02151]

Best Presentation of the 911 Dakar on the Internet so far. autotrader takes it to a new level again. 👍🏼💯

[@shoveI]

I'm glad to see all terrain sports cars finally arriving. There was that Aixam Megatrack in the 1990s... and the AMC Eagle SX4 kinda existed. Now there seems a handful of them so maybe we'll start seeing more affordable cars go this way too (raised 4wd Mustang that isn't also a SUV, for example)

[@EndeavorsDnB]

They’re called rally cars.

[@anthonysmith4072]

I love it, “WE GAVE IT THE SAME GROUND CLEARANCE AS ANY TOYOTA and now it can go ANYWHERE” lol

[@ranger1752]

But it's a Toyota.

[@wheelso2992]

Welcome to Morocco 🇲🇦 we are so proud you are making your video here ❤

[@joeltelfer3147]

Wow this video presentation is beyond sick. Roy your narrative, the videography and your entire production have done an amazing job. I have watched other 911 Dakar reviews and yours is simply several notches above the rest.

[@david7472]

Another great review backed up by some truly amazing photography from Rory and the team. Would really love to watch this on the big screen to enjoy every second again and again; and yes - it does make you dream of owning and driving a 911. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@albrigo_9729]

Even a better intro that Top Gear itself. Scenes, background music and the slow mo pics. You can notice the effort and love for cars as well as the intention of creating something unique for the audience.

[@Bellotheprinceoffire]

Their production quality is better than most shows And it keeps improving with each video

[@chuks_camera]

Reminds me of how good classic Top Gear was. Brilliant to watch

[@sanzalejandroelement]

Rory, you were really made for this, your passion goes far beyond what the screen can show/tell , all the best

[@wanakaphoto]

This has to be the best video I'v seen this week. Amazing story, presentation, cinematics... And the 911.. Probably my dream car. Good job.🎉

[@SuperMauricem]

Amazed by this variation of the 911. Loved the review gave a very clear and concise description of the benefits of this car as an alternative to other off road vehicles- with the height of the suspension etc and something different that you do not see other manufacturers doing in their range of vehicles… looking forward to further innovation from the guys at Porsche….

[@sjismvil]

The cinematography for the intro is off the chain

[@frasermackenzie7275]

This might be the first factory spec bulit 911 off road, but I remember in the 80's/90's seeing people's Porsche cars modded for off road complete with the roof rack setup

[@AlvinWillistonDavis]

Wow, this is even better than the top gear video, amazing work guys, that sandman intro was boss.

[@leangrypoulet7523]

Agreed. Shorter as well. And Rory is the top dog as presenters go. But good to see TG taking it to the snow. Next video for Rory I hope, and ideally near me (French Alps…..). 😂

[@bawintermage8351]

The roof tent and rack is epic. I would love to add all of that to my super pre-owned Porche, and just have fun driving. Go anywhere fast.

[@athix2]

Whoever made the edit needs a raise that was art.

[@ibrahimmoss]

You go Rory. The cinematography is this review is Academy Awards level. You go Rory. Spectacular!

[@ozemsadventureofrandomstuf252]

Mann Mann the videos are getting better everyday well done to you and the team.🙏🤞🏾😩 A 911 for dirt is just crazyyy😅😮

[@newtagwhodis4535]

Amazing doc as always! Thanks Rory

[@TheHooniverse]

Damn Rory… that intro was epic 👏👏

[@DuulHomes]

Thank you for those wholesome videos man

[@zak_258]

I was surprised it was filmed in my homecountry! Outstanding video!

[@davidbillberg2203]

Nice! Really enjoyed every minute of this.

[@TudorBratu]

Traditional YT/TV car reviews should look like this or not look at all. Amazing work, one of the best in the automotive media, ever. Also, new dream car unlocked, because of this review. I want one.

[@juliusbrown7985]

I saw every 911 Dakar review so far. This is the best one! I also like this spec the most with this fancy green and not the retro stylings.

[@alexmaddox2255]

The roof tent can hold up to 140kg and can hold two people. That's two very slim people.

[@Chad-hh7xm]

this video really reminded me of Richard Hammond’s reviews in top gear

[@blackforest2527]

Good review as always ... but AMAZING filming!!

[@nelsonclub7722]

There is a fine line between madness and genius - This is both

[@mrharry8466]

I absolutely love this car. If / when I'm rich it's a definite buy. A rugged Porsche, that I don't mind just using day to day. Speed bumps, pot holes etc....no worries However I would really like them to do a every day version as such. No role cage and just a bit more luxury orientated.

[@therankingworld7627]

definitely it should be more livible to live with

[@Robin-rp3xe]

The quality of this video, im blown away !

[@markastor6740]

I hope they make this a regular model, how awesome is this car.

[@rimtasvilnietis2991]

They must do it, it will be a huge hit. Not many years left till complete electrification, so they should go all in and after 10 year to continue adapt this style in new ev

[@johnbris5]

Wow! Enjoyable as always. Great videography.

[@iSuavemente]

Well done Rory ! Superb presentation 👌

[@letsoverthink2548]

[@thomashorneman563]

awesome video guys the intro was fire

[@4thManonCross]

nice intro cinematography & song, great overall video, most appealing Porsche to me. in that exact spec, if I'm ever rich enough to own 1, i just might, but it'l prol be distant memory or classic in an electrified world by then

[@fullselfcontrol]

Unique car and fantastic cinematography!

[@pooryaradpoor3156]

This is crazy. Thanks about this. I love it.

[@RealLaone]

damn these clips! 🔥🔥went all out with the production on this one.

[@polikarposkarasavvidis9334]

Open your mind and think about it... It's the best solution for someone who wants a Dakar rally car, a WRC car and a highly capable sports car all in one and without having to pay for their extreme cost to buy them and also maintain them... Well played Porsche!!! Fantastic presented for one more time Rory and the whole team!!! PS I'm poor. Time to have a spin with my humble Hyundai and dream for a Dakar...

[@russellnersesov7524]

Awesome review!!!!

[@MWUHAJR61]

Rory is by far one of the most brilliant presenters in the automotive industry!

[@CarlHancock]

I've watched a bunch of different videos (Top Gear, etc.) on the 911 Dakar after the press was able to get their hands on them to test drive them in harsh conditions but I have to say that this was the most beautifully done. Kudos to the team who put this together!

[@xelaander8429]

Another good video as always

[@tasosarpoudis1604]

i love it. They have rally heritage and also, the five spoke classic wheels !!!! awesome

When I first heard of this I was like why? But now I see why and it looks great and you do some of the best videos my friend

[@Avishek85]

Curious to see how this Dakar would fend in the harsh Canadian winter since the nearest sand dune I can find is at my elementary school’s playground for little children and I think the school staff would have a thing or two to say about me doing drifts there in my Dakar…nonetheless great video as always. Rory for Mad Max 2!! 💪🏼

[@leangrypoulet7523]

Watch the Top Gear review where they take it high altitude in a German winter for some fun in the snow. I think you’ll be impressed….👍

[@mramed8448]

Love Porsche, great review sir. 👍 from morocco

[@fvandrei]

I really hope that this will start a trend among all the manufacturers to bring back their estates with high ground clearance. I myself would love any Allroad, Allterrain, Alltrack, Scout or whatever they will call them before having an SUV. These type of cars, like the 911 Dakar, have so much better handling than an SUV, but they don't lack the ground clearance needed for rough roads.

[@sumuqh]

Rory is going places !

[@philjohnson725]

It's perfect for a daily driver in South Africa. We used to drive on the left side of the road. Now we drive on what's left of the road.

[@daleashby4599]

Hey Rory! Question not car related.. my hubs loves your channel and while watching this video he has fallen absolutely in love with your Lakers Legend jacket. Being an LA born Laker fan I am kindly asking if you could share where you purchased that jacket so I can attempt to bring him joy. Thank you for your time.

[@n1x0nn0w]

Thank you for creating a story rooted in history, emotion, and magic. Makes us all feel like kids again. People may say there is no reason for its existence. But there absolutely is. It’s important to create things that comfortable, “rational” people find irrational because it puts a smile on the faces of everyone else that didn’t follow the script in life as well. And in this case-when the crazy ones out vote the suits-beautiful things can happen. Just waiting for the upgrade kit for my 991 GTS 🤣
