[@richdelgado3405]

Honestly, the only decals that belong on a 911 are either the cool retro "PORSCHE" decal you see along the bottom of the door or...well...that's it. Unless you're driving a rally car, that's about the only decal the car should ever have.

[@skillfulgoose101]

You kids clearly dont know about motorsport. You must think all those Porsche's with decals on are ugly too huh? Do you know the point of decals? Representation of a brand? Do you know that Porsche cares about their lap times? Only does production cars to further fund their ambitions in racing?? Its not Ferrari where they have a stick up their ass and wont allow you to personalize your car, and can punish you by not allowing you to purchase their cars lol. It looks like a proper race car. Awesome. You're more into fashion/aesthetics than motorsport. Not being mean, but motorsport is different man, you dont watch Porsche supercup?

[@BladeRunner-td8be]

With a machine like this you don't need to put decals all over the place to garner attention. But yeah, they look absolutely horrific. Decals are usually a sign of somebody who wants everyone to think you have the fastest car on the planet. In reality you very much don't. Well, except in this case. Cheers

The turbo/s is not boring. Standing quarter mile in a tad over 10 seconds and handles ridiculously well… fabulous cars…

[@richboy900]

When people say it's boring, I think they mean the car is too good as a whole. As in so perfectly engineered with little or no shortcomings it somewhat lacks a soul or character. Personally I'd prefer the 911 Gt3, but the turbo is the better more rounded package. I really do like this gen turbo though

[@F1ll1nTh3Blanks]

That's what it is for me. It's kinda perfect and doesn't particularly have a character, that's what I thought about this and the 720S but it's not true. They do but I think they do need some mods to add a touch of flair because as they are, they don't particularly amaze me to look at or hear.

[@Fzr005]

mate, love these kinds of reviews. Realistic and can help ppl like me who are a few years away from getting one of these. I have been so confused about the turbo s vs ferraris/lambo/mclarens. I own a boxster S right now, and it is a huge plus that it doesnt crazy stand out in a car park and so i dont have to stress about using it for road trips. I would love to see a video on what your experience has been with the Pista as a car for overnight road trips or longer. My current assumption is that most Ferraris Lambos and McLarens cannot be used for overnight road trips or longer because you cannot guarantee good parking situations and people not being arseholes. With a porsche, people seem to be more chill..

[@thedudeabides1443]

Here’s the problem with not only supercars in general, but even with “less powerful” cars like an older Porsche Carrera with a measley 385hp: you really can’t DRIVE them anywhere without either getting a ticket or outright losing your license and getting tossed in jail! Plus, too much traffic, too many slow drivers. Heck, in this car, you’d be at 100mph at half throttle merging onto the freeway! Great car, just NOWHERE to drive it to it’s potential except on a track.

[@bluesky9093]

The new Turbo S is absolutely amazing, it is an absolute beast when you mash your foot to the floor. And those brakes, you are absolutely correct the stopping power is unlike anything you will experience in a car. I was worried about maintenance costs on the ceramic brakes, but a Porsche mechanic I spoke with said I will never have do any maintenance as long as I own the car. He said unless you are tracking the car on a regular basis, those brakes will outlast the owner. When the new Turbo S ultimately arrives with the new electric boost drivetrain I’v been told it will shock the automotive world with its performance figures. It’s hard to believe they can make it better than the current version. Porsche is really hitting it out of the park with the 992 platform, can’t wait to see what comes next.

I think the penny has dropped Tom.....Supercars are all very dramatic but seriously flawed to drive in an overcrowded country with bloody awful road quality, plus a lot of your driving is in town. This may seem a boring 'default decision car' but you really couldn't need anything faster, and just look at how useful it is....look at the great visibility you have - you can even see behind you! When you look at it like that, the price seems more reasonable.

I am actually really pleased to hear you saying your are not bored of this car and it is more all the contrary. When somebody has to possibility to drive and own as many cars as you it might be quite easy to get bored. This car is fantastic, it looks fantastic, is sounds fantastic, and it's as you say an all runner. You can drive it anywhere at any moment of the year, a thing that you can't do with the Pista indeed. And to all people thinking it is just another 911... so what ? Yes it is and that's why we love it. From all your garage this one is in my top 3. Congrats ! Hope she will stay in your garage for a while !

[@RcReventon]

The great thing about the porsche is that it is the ultimate driver's car. It is nothing to be pretentious about or be obnoxious. It just runs and performs exceptionally. The only benefit of the pista is bragging rights and showing off money. But the Porsche makes sense to be driven and to be enjoyed to its fullest.

[@the61822]

Ultimate driver’s car? Not a 911. Definitely not a turbo s. The Ultimate driver’s car would be mid engined, rear-wheel drive, naturally aspirated and preferably with a manual gearbox. Which means its the Porsche 718!

[@carlfrederick8433]

I concur with your views that the Porsche Turbo S has real advantages over a Pista. Thinking of reliability, residual value especially with more miles on odometer, everyday usability with less stress from road hazards, envious people, etc.

I have a 50 mile commute to work one way, so I want something I enjoy driving but also can take all the miles I will put on it.

What a pleasant review to watch on the new 992 Turbo S.

I have to agree, and I smiled, as you rattled off all of your points on the overall advantages of owning the new 911 Turbo S. My friend has had several F and P cars, which I have been lucky enough to have driven and spend time in. Our opinion is we love the styling and sound from the F cars. However I am not a flashy person and for many reasons, several of which you made here, the 911 Turbo S is the perfect all around sports car, and for my use the ultimate Daily Driver. I see myself in a year from now trading my 991 Turbo S for the new 992. Thanks again for the great laid back review! And let me add after reading several reviews from car journalist, Porsche has made a big attempt to tie some of the GT DNA into this car...
