Porsche 911 GTS 2017 review: first drive video

[@w-james9277]

My perfect GTS… 1) Shaphire Blue 2) Black Turbo S wheels 3) RWD 4) Manual gearbox.

[@patrickstarr87]

W-James agree!👍👍👍

[@Marc-nc9yv]

Don't quote Porsche 0-100 time. We all know that's conservative. 0-60 tested many times at 2.9-3.0 with PDK.

[@minibus1351]

It really is the sweet spot in the range. The Turbo models are crazy money and the GT models, you can't even drive them often because you worry about racking miles on it, and thus reducing its value. This is the right amount of sportiness with everyday drivability.

[@koolaidekidd342]

The curb weight is not that much more (100lbs) than a 2008 GTS but with 100 more HP and 150lbs more torque. Curb weight is between 3200 and 3350 lbs which isn't bad for a car with 450hp and 405ft lbs torque.

[@1061shrink1061]

you meant to say "the GT models, you can't even have because if you're not on Porsche's nice list, you don't even get the chance to buy one". GTS is a GT3 for real people that haven't been escalated to Porsche royalty just yet.

[@travis3810]

Why care about the value? Who gives a toss if you lost money on it?! It's all about the memories and the pleasure you got from it.

[@jstoli996c4s]

It's done a sub 7:30 lap at the Ring, it's hardly gone soft.

[@huntychunks]

Top review. The 991.1 GTS is the one to be had, with manual....the perfect Porsche that'll become very sought after in years to come as the last of the NA engines.

[@lbarbato6425]

Turbo cars are far more fun on the road than non turbo especially a Porsche, BMW M, AMG etc. The explosion you get in the lower rev range, on a race track, I don’t know which is more fun.

[@diogoleitao8628]

Love the final. "i just want one"

[@golfbuddy1969]

Why in the world do car reviewers STILL complain about a car that isn’t labeled “turbo”, having turbo chargers?! The last decade has nearly every automaker using turbos in traditionally non-turbo models.

[@TheSkullknight12]

If Porsche solely listened to purist they would be out of business.

[@jstoli996c4s]

Purists just like to hear themselves complain.

[@burgholte]

Lots of These 'purists' cannot even afford a Porsche like that. Everywhere on the internet you find people saying that they would buy a manual but still, the majority of cars are delivered as automatics, so im guessing your statement is very true

[@uknovaaddict]

Please try to do something about the microphone's location next time to try to reduce the amount of background noise when shooting inside the cabin.

My dream car

[@markjurczyk]

Great review

[@Nunopcf]

Good job, really good review.

[@iPein36]

Isn't it a compromise between a Carrera and a Gt3 ?

[@EthanFromLondon]

iPein36 yes this guy doesn’t know much and the recording as well as the review is terrible

[@popothecatathome]

great car, would hope to get this or a turbo s in the future. also, why do you state the power in kilowatts instead of horsepower? just makes things more complicated when they don't necessarily need to be so

[@berniesutton7277]

popothecatathome kilowatts are the measurement used in Australia where he is located

[@michaeljkasnter]

Its the 991-GT3RS you want and need!!!

[@PeterJUren]

I just want one too!

[@vkgiotis]

Yep, me too please

[@malcolmstephenson3840]

Love Love ❤️ it 😎

[@benwatt391]

What actual colour is this?

[@BobbyDazzler888]

Red

[@tiggerlicious27]

Karmin Red

[@dutchchiro]

Karmine Red

[@TheSkullknight12]

How is he a purist and he mispronounces the name.

[@jschauer31]

I was rally wondering how many killiwatts it made. 😀

[@neobourgeoischristum5540]

Just my normal car, its exotic to a prole.

[@TheEchelon]

The only exotic thing for you is decency and humbleness.

[@neobourgeoischristum5540]

jesum christum im the best

[@moneyparhar]

best drivers car $ can buy

[@billallen3696]

Try two things: push the sport exhaust button and learn to pronounce Porsche correctly.

[@EthanFromLondon]

It’s not between a Carrera and a Turbo. It’s between that and a GT3!!!

[@LegendInThaMakin]

Porsches have gotten pretty ridiculously overpriced since the 991.

[@OMGWTFLOLSMH]

This guy seems annoyed by all the brilliant things.

[@saskwotch19764]

Great review
