This comparison almost made me tear up a little. The 911 has been my dream car since I was a little kid and this 2017 model is the most beautiful one Porsche has ever designed in my eyes. I hope to get my hands on one before I die :)

[@langamlalazi6803]

Love your detailed reviews, Nick! Your camera angles make them even more special!

[@OzymandiasLP]

Thank you as always nick! No one else out there does the in detail reviews that potential buyers like me need. So I'm grateful and also always enjoy your vids!

[@ladweeb1798]

I just discovered Nick's videos! I really like his camera angles. He must be the only Porsche videos, that I have seen so far, that show more of the car than simply a video of the guy driving the car!

[@rombierto]

This was incredible! All your camera angles make it special.

[@mikeymonty]

Brilliant comparison video as always... Thanks from a 987.2 Cayman owner in Malaysia!

[@Automotivetouchup]

Your videos are always professional and thorough. Thank you for showing us in great detail all these changes.

[@Sandouras]

With the new rear vents and the cetre mounted exhausts i think the 991.2 looks a lot more retro, which i really love. Since Porsche cant follow a space age design like the R8's, then i say embrace the retro. Also, as much as i want RWD, dat rear flared wheel arches and that red line between the rear lights make the 4S so much better looking!

[@John-dl2ht]

Thanks Nick! Great info! Thanks for taking the time to put it together.

[@martinj.b.6696]

O joy, a new Nick Murray video!

[@treborheminway1196]

Nice detailed review Nick. I really like the compare and contrast you did with the .1 model. Keep up the excellent job with the vids!

[@thhall459]

Thank you Mr. Murray. I thoroughly enjoyed this video, as I do most of your videos in which you regale us with useful information. Bless you.

[@thehunter4484]

Man, what an amazing review, and so very detailed. This was exactly what I needed in determining my choice of a new or mildy used 991. Thanks!

[@danmnagy]

Thanks Nick. Your review helped me with a decision making process whether to buy a 2016 leftover on sale, or order a 2017. You also gave a helpful overview of the options. You are A+.

[@NickMurray]

Glad it was helpful Dan

[@scottcowan2127]

That skipping of the wheels at full lock is pretty common. I experienced it a lot when reversing in my yard in both in a Macan S and subsequently a Cayenne S Diesel. I have a base 991.2 on order... Thanks for the very informative videos. Keep up the good work!!

[@timmietz]

Perfect background music selection! Great review.

[@JULEPPS]

Very good attention to detail, Nick

[@trevormacdougall9385]

Great quality and detail as per usual, Nick. Keep well mate :)

[@ArneuTube]

Great review of a beautiful car. Really enjoy your attention to detail, well done!

[@RAJohnson713]

Great video Nick, love the in depth videos

[@alexdb77]

...As usual Great content Nick...plus Just love the Mozart on the background

[@CarGuy11]

Great info and video Nick!!!

[@herwigv]

Great video - very informative and great to watch - thanks Nick

[@christianknellesen7155]

Nice and very interesting comments before 991.2 launch.

[@tbone1493]

Nicely done as always. I am not a Porsche guy but I have a friend who is so it is nice to get caught up on the changes.

[@anbranco]

Just order my 4S last Friday. Your tips were helpful. Cheers.

[@paulsofroniou8372]

Great review, this has answered all my questions of what the diference is as im looking for one at the moment, thanks

[@spence22]

Great vid Nick for those considering the newer 911 - Cheers!

[@lwrennma]

Thanks for this one Nick. I pick up mine here in Stockholm tomorrow:) Will be a sleepless night.

[@stefankoles]

this is why i love this channel...u find out alot ....ty

[@BaconSandwich72]

Thorough look. Thanks Nick

[@p00pie]

I loved this Nick thanks for making it.

[@thecynicalafro160]

i wish all videos i watched on youtube were like this! So satisfying.

[@adrianlee2357]

Love your channel Nick

[@JH-zy1dj]

Hi Nick! I'm a long time Boston terrier owner and big time Porsche lover. I watched your older videos when your car had a pool in it. Reminds me of my first car the BMW 2002. Even with the water and no heat or defrost it was so much fun to drive. Lets see little more of your dog if you can. Cheers!

[@ItalianDDS]

Hey Nick thanks for pointing out that issue with the front wheels being misaligned when backing up full lock. As an owner of a 2016 Cayman 6-speed I can tell you that same condition applies to this model as well. I can rest easy now knowing its a natural occurrence. Looking forward to that moss green 991.2 your building.

[@sdcair]

I have eagerly waited for this video! Thanks man!

[@K1dPhresh1]

Beautiful cars!! I really like the gray on the 991.2.

[@hrcanda]

Great and detailed review, as always. Porsche should put you on their payroll, for always delivering essential information for prospective buyers who care for more than just the P badge.

[@v8ssf]

Hi Nick, thanks for this review on the 991.2. I really enjoy your insight in the Porsche models and your videos certainly influenced me when specifying my 991.1. I have had the chance to drive the 991.2 Targa S and thought it drove really well. Because I have recently bought my 991.1 / 4 GTS I didn't want to like it as much as I did, but the new turbo engine just makes the new gen 2 model so easy and responsive to drive. I just miss that engine noise though. I have registered my interest in the new 991.2 / 4 GTS with my local dealer when they get more details. Who knows I could be persuaded.. Keep up the good KZbin videos

[@mreddieotis]

Thanks Nick. As always a very well done job... At some point would be nice to see your thought for someone buying a new car. BMW,Porsche,Audi etc... Thanks Again

[@alipontiac]

well made video Nick very good details.

[@sebianoti]

I couldn't care less about the cars featured here and yet I'm here watching it, nick knows how to make good content, hopefully more aircrafts in the future!

[@mark10601]

Fantastic review thanks. Really thorough. I'm about to order one so this has really helped.

[@diulei2385]

YES A LONG REVIEW! LIKE BEFORE WATCHING SQUAD ANYONE?

[@2VintageRacer2]

Well done Nick.

[@David-nw5fi]

Great video Nick!

[@CaptainCarl8]

Great job. A nice summary of the differences. I have a 2015 991.1 S Cab. I'm not going to get the 991.2, but this was good to know. Keep up the good work!

[@mercfan382]

Nick, you didn't talk about the PDK lever's manumatic function! Porsche reversed the direction of the shifts, so it's pull back to upshift versus the 991.1's push. It feels so much more intuitive now.

[@NickMurray]

+Pangata I did not know this! I will make sure I mention in an upcoming video. Thanks for the tip

[@goons123flofy]

Great review! One more interior change, the direction of the Pdk shift lever has changed. It is now tap forward for downshift.

[@romanteslya2077]

Lip on the side it is because you have AWD version, on the old one c4 991.1 was same lip :)

[@NickMurray]

+Roman Teslya Good spotting. Thanks

[@callefalk6557]

TURBO!!!

[@erock1983]

Great review! Thank you so much for videos... I find them very insightful and enjoyable. The comment that you made about the rear steering was incorrect however. Honda wasn't the first car company with the rear steering it was actually Porsche in the late 1970's. The Porsche 928 was the first car with this technology. It was called the Weissach Axle.

[@fredrikjonsson6410]

Nice one, Nick.

[@johnomahoney7755]

Love your videos keep them coming. Thanks for your effort. John O.

[@TommyLGarage]

That gentle turbo spool is amazing. I prefer this over 6 cyl...better torque too. Oh and the steering wheel is so sexy. Makes the older one look like a BR-Z. Great video Nick!

[@tehshins]

One of the nerdiest car videos I've seen in quite some time. Love it :)

[@Poorschedriver]

That was a fantastic video Nick. I had no idea the 991.1 and 991.2 differed in so many ways. Personally I think the 991.1 is the better car in every way, especially the way you spec'd your car (loved the deviated stitching). You should see if you can get ahold of a GTS model porsche for a video. They are in my opinion, the highest evolution (in road going terms) of the porsche brand, and after driving the cayman and 911 gts variants I can tell you they are quite special. Keep up the good work!

[@Vincent_Gambini]

Excellent review, Nick. The 991.2 is absolutely gorgeous. I'm just wondering if your friend Peter is now going to trade in his 991.1 for the 991.2.

[@3dScience8]

Nice music at the end Nick!

[@dennisdamenace214]

Great job Nick...Thanks

[@banestock]

Great video Nick! Can't wait to hear your thoughts on the absolutely desirable 911 R that was unveiled recently!

[@NickMurray]

+Kirtan L I very much doubt I will ever get to drive one sadly. They are collectors items so very few of them will ever be driven.

[@banestock]

+Nick Murray Well you never know. You've got enough of a fan following to ask Porsche to let you try one out!

[@BPsnowdon]

Excellent review!

[@thomasmcgahan889]

Great video! Please keep up the good work!

[@MrPerfectPepe]

I love your Porsche vids. Num 1 KZbinr! hope you order yours soon!

[@ryanchau8609]

Excellent quality video!

[@petermcgibney]

thank you so much you solved a problem for me, I thought there was something wrong with my car, with the knocking noise when reversing with full lock cheers

[@hansklostermann117]

Minor changes indeed but surprisingly many. I love em both haha

[@Veyronp87]

love the detail!

[@erikvive]

Great video, very informative!

[@TheCarista]

If you weren´t that great Nick, I would never watch a video with such content :D But you are great so I had to watch it :D

[@bigtimeposters5963]

Great stuff Nick! Keep 'em coming. Like you I am planning on a 991.2 in the near future as well. I'm back and forth between transmission though. I love a manual but shifting through gears with the PDK transmission is better than sex. I'd love to see a vid on the two options, especially from you.... and Chewie if need be ;)

[@moonster2323]

I like your videos. Just got switched to 991.2 myself and drove it for a week. Overall I like it over 991.1, especially now more torque is available at lower rpm. The GT steering wheel has a smaller radius (360mm) than normal one. Only problem I have noteiced so far is that the car jerks (like you are in the wrong gear) sometimes when you drive uphill at very low speed. I don't know whether this is due to some program logic error between new turbo engine and PDK or something else. I asked my dealer and they have not figured it out yet since the car is just out.

[@3chrismc]

I agree with you completely Nick on the GT Sport Steering wheel with the multi function being too busy.I have the multi-function on my Macan S and it looks much better!

[@jaybushman4930]

nice job... enjoyed the video.. I test drove the 2017 C4S with the 420 HP... total package = $130k... very, very nice..

[@jancovanderwesthuizen8070]

I think I like you and what you're doing. Subbed

[@zari114]

Wow! Great review! Now if I only had the money to get one...

[@iFumoffu]

Great video as always Nick, really enjoy your comparison/in-depth review, so, are you going to get the new 991.2 sometime in the future? P.s. What do you think about the new W205 generation C63S, personally I love the new look especially in the coupe form, can you do a test drive on that too when you have the chance? Really keen to see what you think about that car

[@CraigHaldane]

Nice video, I picked up my metallic white 911.2 last month. one point to note, on the PCM the flap u lifted also houses the slot for a data or telephone system

[@NickMurray]

+Craig Haldane Normally I don't like white cars but yours is SHARP nice work!

[@EdGeyy]

Nice video, chap.

[@user-kf3pi1jm5u]

Great vid with comparison

[@RUF911]

Hi Nick, Nice video, thanks for the review. I know that you previously owned the older model at some point and had major issues with it. is this one giving you trouble?

[@lucab.5944]

Awesome review!!! Very detailed, even for me as a non-plus-ultra fan ;) You could have mentioned that you can only get PDCC with the rear axle steering, which makes it extremly expensive o.O

[@seinundzeiten]

I like the changes in the 991.2017

[@Slimothy]

I see those laser jammers ;) @ 1:20

[@zeke2095]

What really? Inside the middle grill? Wow I've never seen jammers placed there before

[@callefalk6557]

OH REALLY!!!

[@NickMurray]

+Matthew Sharpe You always ask questions on my videos which I can not answer because you have reply disabled on your account. No the lane change assist is camera based.

[@peterbradshaw8018]

+Nick Murray I remember that feature on the [prelude. Wow it was just like yesterday.

[@sokete7]

Like your videos, good luck with your channel. I'm in the market for a 997 x50 turbo coupe automatic ,but all the ones I find are cabriolets manual in red. Oh well , on with the surch🤞🏾

[@alanbooth7280]

Nice review thanks

[@adamguggenheim2375]

Nice review. Would love to hear your pov on the Cayman gt4.

[@andrewmoorhouse687]

Interesting video as always Nick. Look forward to seeing what choices you make for your new 911 at the end of the year. In the meantime I hope the garage get your current ride fixed. They should give you some compensation for the extra hassle they've caused. It's bad enough when you prang your own car, but when some other ***hole has done it that really sucks!

[@NickMurray]

+Andrew Moorhouse Oh they offered me 2 free car wash. Like I would let a dealer wash my car!!

[@andrewmoorhouse687]

That's generous! I'm the same - prefer to do it myself. That way you avoid damage to your car's paintwork. I've been lucky with the BMs I've had - my dealer - Sandal BMW (in Wakefield here in the UK) - have been very good to deal with. I'm changing my M235i for my 1st Porsche (a Cayman GTS) though in 2 weeks, so hopefully my new dealer will be as good or better. They've been great so far, but they normally are when you are parting with loads of cash! It's how they deal with you after that's the test. Why is it so hard for some dealers to provide good customer service?

[@richboy8800]

love the show

[@nicklove2011]

OOOOOOooohhh that 60hz. Thank you so much.

[@AutoAmateur]

Nick, great video!! This is a Porsche-lover's DREEEEAM. :-) Makes me want to trade up my 996.2 for the 991.2.

[@robintobin3506]

Cracking job.

[@topdawg1692]

great content

[@martinw3265]

That turbo spool sound is so real. Love it. A pro over the old engine. Even the small 718 has it. Legend.

[@DM-ye9mm]

would really like to hear your opinion on the new boxster and boxster s. thanks for the great reviews. keep up the good work.

[@ikaustralia]

+Drew Merkley There's a video on that.

[@DM-ye9mm]

+Австралия Без Купюр can't seem to find it.

[@stdenis25]

Nick, one comment regarding the sport steering wheel. I agree with you that it looks very busy, but those rivet nut things aren't the only difference, it is also a 20mm or so smaller in diameter as compared to the regular multi function wheel.

[@NickMurray]

+Shawn St. Denis Yes good point

[@tommypoi]

I really like your videos. i’m not a current Porsche owner but look to purchase one in the fall of 2019. I’ve watched your video on preparing a sample build sheet reflecting the options a used Porsche has, pricing those options using the Porsche build your own tool, checking market values of similar cars and finally applying some discount I want on the prospective car. In your opinion, is that still a viable way to approach a purchase?

[@iparrott]

Great video. Production just gets better and better. A camera question - what lens/adaptor do you use on the GX7? I am just buying one and the package lens are said to be poor for video. I want to invest wisely in the best lens/adaptor for 4k and HD video for this camera. Thanks.

[@NickMurray]

+Ian Parrott Yes the package lens is poor for video. I use the Olympus M Zuiko lens. 7-14 mm f2.8 or the Lumix 12-35 OIS

[@vikd4292]

Not sure about the multifunction steering wheel hate, i loved it on my m56 . you can drive sporty with a multifunction steering wheel. It makes it a practical car that can hang with bimmers and MB's with the porsche driving experience. Currently with my 991.1 i miss controlling the radio and the phone from the wheel it keeps ur eyes on the road. You really need to get a 991.2, the m4 is great but you are porsche man!
