What do you think of the 991 Porsche 911?

@kaiwestensee 11 ай бұрын

I think the 991 is (with the 964) the most beautiful 911! And the naturally aspirated engine is amazing!

@lblesbowden6748 11 ай бұрын

I own a 2014 991.1 C4S with under 60k km (about 37k miles) and the sounds emanating from the flat six is otherworldly! I have a few more options than the model you test drove (PDK, Sport Chrono Sport Design package, Sport Design exterior mirrors, 20" Sport Techno Wheels for example). The 911 will forever be a timeless model. Really nice review!

I have a C4S and I agree with you about the EPS being overblown on the internet. The car is so damn good and not forgetting it being the best looking modern 911s of all.

I'm picking up one of these up next week. There aren't a lot of options for people that want relatively lightweight, high horsepower, and a smaller car, which will also be reliable. For the twisty and narrow back roads I drive on those are the attributes I wanted. My last sporty car was a E46 BMW M3 with the competition package. I loved that car except for it's weight (~3400lbs). The 991.1 C2S being 300lbs lighter with ~70 more horsepower and ~60 more ft/lbs torque seems like a sweet spot for someone like me. I could get a 992, but the size and weight increase makes it less appealing to me.

@davidreyes4231 7 ай бұрын

Just bought a 2015 targa 4s with 16,000 miles on it a few months ago and I’ve put 6,000 miles on it in three months. Porsche is a great daily driver and can’t imagine paying that much for a car and not driving it. 150 miles a month is just crazy. Its almost like what’s the point of owning it

@casketking 11 ай бұрын

Porsche is superior and the 991.1 c2s is the sweet spot.

@Osamabeenleanin210 4 ай бұрын

Hell no, my e90 looks mint🤌🏾😆 It's has the "stripper" package so there's no dated navigation system in it which is a plus. Updated headlights is probably the biggest game changer, along with updating to the lci truck and taillights, some nice wheels, and keep it clean no one can tell what year it it. E90's and E92's (well maintained) can definitely be timeless. The F80 will soon be on the list too

Best looking modern 911. Great sound. Driving experience in an S was a bit underwhelming compared to both a bade 991.2 and 718. The newer 911s are just that much better at doing what the cars are designed to do - a daily biased sports car - and the 718 is much for fun to toss around canyons on a weekend. For the $70K+ asking prices, the engine performamce, e-steering and handling isn't worth it and I strongly encourage anyone to either buy a proper daily and separate sports car or get a 911.2 and up if it has to be a 911.

@JamesWoods-o8f 5 ай бұрын

Since we are all swinging testicles, my 17 c4s will hit 78k miles this weekend, and it isn’t even my daily driver. I track it 4 days a month, and still goes head to head with the new GT4 RS. You can’t go wrong with these things.

The 911 has always been a very well built vehicle (996's interior was not of high quality). The 991.1 / 991.2 has continued the high quality trend and very reliable boxer engines.

Damn….don’t quite understand winding it out to 7800 when the redline is 7400…..sure, it’s not going to grenade the engine…..but it ain’t your car, lad. Show some consideration for the owner. This is a prime example of why I would NEVER consider buying a demo or press car when it comes to performance vehicles. There are morons out there that have absolutely no business demonstrating these kinds of cars…….NONE !!! I wouldn’t trust them with a KIA.
