Porsche 911 Turbo S review - the ultimate everyday supercar? | evo REVIEWS

[@seattimetv]

Junior supercars? Any car that can do 205mph and 0-60 in under 2.7 seconds is well into the supercars realm. Yes, I am biased towards Porsche but don't disrespect my brand! Good video! 😃

[@coureurdebois]

turbo S over R8 all day long

[@JeDxDeVu]

+justin bouche Id agree but the interior is dated and boring in the Porsche.

[@GTBKS]

Audi ruined the one car that actually looks good on their lineup. Its pretty much a low streched TT now.

[@coureurdebois]

typlo8 i agree on that, shame so many companies are doing that, look at the new NSX, looks so much like all the other models in the line up

[@coureurdebois]

Jesse D true, the audi interior is very sexy compared to this, but i kind of like the spartan look.

[@v_alexiadis]

+justin bouche I must disagree. The 911 is quicker but the R8 has a nicer engine and it's more special particularly inside.

[@Photoandcargeek]

Love Porsches, have driven and raced a few, and probably would love this one. Sport Response Button for overtaking! For overtaking what??? A Bugatti Veyron in comfort mode? :) That being said, I am a GT3RS type of guy and if I wanted an every day super car, I might diversify and get the R8 to not own only Porsches.

[@Photoandcargeek]

Or maybe the 570S!

[@marcnobel3938]

+Photoandcargeek ... than is again a 3.8 Turbo. The big NA V10+ is what you want different than. The pure Sound and how it drives makes there the difference.

[@marcnobel3938]

THE BOSS How good is your German ? Just talking about uneducated ... ha ha ha .. You want to impress the intrenet with your insults? Wow - you must be a very grown and intelligent man. Ha Ha Ha ... sorry ... cant take you serious...

[@twagn]

when I win the big one....my first stop...local Porsche dealer

[@DatingForRealYoutubeChannel]

+Mr M - Me too :D

[@gamerfromspace1040]

i hope the best for you

[@kylerollins6483]

Mr EOS me too! :D I'll take mine in black exterior, chrome badges (including the 911 Turbo S part) with red interior

[@twagn]

Kyle Rollins​ 🍊 looks best for me and I would have every available option😁

[@fcamiola]

Yup!

[@w-james9277]

If you keep making these quality videos then you'll get allot more subscribers. Be patient.

[@oxxXXXMICHAELXXXxxoo]

+Leopard95 they never done something else xD

[@reconic355]

I imagine that these videos aren't cheap to make though so more subs = more money = more quality videos.

[@unbeatable5129]

+Leopard95 your name is funny after looking at ur profile picture. XD

[@w-james9277]

Ilham Shokori Yeah I know its a lion. Its just a nice picture. I took that picture myself actually when I volunteered at a game reserve in South Africa.

[@unbeatable5129]

Leopard95 it is indeed a nice picture of a nice lion.

[@2011blueman]

They put "everyday" in the title, but the entire video is about track performance.

[@MikeMessiah]

+Leggo My Ego exactly!! i really ruffled my feathers

[@acipshah]

+Mike Messiah you did? coo

[@asebaninja]

Perfect, no background music to spoil the engine & tyre noise. 👍

[@charliedanielson6668]

I simply must have a Porsche 911 in my life.

[@SeerTrulth]

As usual, guys, thank you! I have the Turbo, yet drove the S to make sure I wasn't lacking the best! The S seemed to "coddle" me more with the dynamic stuff, and I'm more old-school and want to feel the bit of body roll and flex so that my senses can react better. Just me. I would not trade the Turbo for the Turbo S. The advantages of the minor increases in power are above my head anyway, and the enhanced control stuff is not my style. The only thing that I think I would like on the track is the boost cutoff delay. THAT changes the foot-dance of this car's turbo personality when you slow and then want it back underfoot. I spent 6 years learning to drive hard with a BMW Z4M -- a total monster of a basic sports car. So the feel thing, the understeer reactions needed, and the hooligan factor are part of my habit scheme. So calculate that into my comments.

[@mightyfinejonboy]

I think this guy's pulse never goes above 60 bpm...

[@silh0vettes]

that combined with the fact that he's obnoxiously monotone even when he's praising the car.

[@jerzeydiablo]

+Quin Koele Maybe we've gotten too accustomed to Jeremy Clarkson's delivery methods. But I do agree lol

[@beyshadow]

Quin Koele With pleasure.

[@kantina4765]

Quin Koele calm down gay boy

[@victorcampaz640]

I don't know how Porsche manage to make the 911 even more perfect everytime. It's just amazing! I love Porsche

[@v_alexiadis]

That 2.6 for the 0-62 is incredible. By the way, I wonder what's the difference between the P Zero and the P Zero Corsa. I've only noticed slight differences in the tread.

[@KingLoris92]

+ianiva the P Zero Corsa has a much softer compound than the P Zero. Is like F1 medium tire, and hard tyre. The P Zero Trofeo R is the soft tyre...

[@AdamMidghall]

Corsa's can be 2 seconds a lap faster

[@cybertree]

+Adam Midghall **when warm**

[@seinfeld11123]

+ianiva its the compound mainly. its the exact same design thats why the compound is the same. its about 30-50% softer I think. less silica, more orange oil in the tyre which means they wear out faster

[@nameunko]

+jack black and shitty wet performance for everyday use

[@alixrashid]

I've been an evo magazine subscriber since 1997. You've always produced the best printed automotive magazine in the world. Bar none. You have the best road testers, Meaden, Cacthpole et al. Your new videos and production quality is excellent. Bravo!

[@SteveC-Shaman]

I had my Turbo S on the track last night. I have no idea how he can talk, really. The grip and the motor were keeping me half breathless.

[@just.for.the.downshifts]

One of the best reviews of the 991 Turbo S on the internet, amongst the tons of them.

[@mkelebay]

Evo really has taken the role of a quality review, more of a serious tone than motortrend, and more info than a Chris Harris type goofing around video. Production quality is just really good.

[@GunfightersINC]

This guy is one of the best reviewers today.. right up there with Chris Harris and the Top Gear trio. keep it up.

[@bismarchiavelli]

+GunfightersINC I respectfully disagree. He has the facial expression of a psychopath and therefore conveys about as much excitement as someone listening to a Ben Carson speech. Chris Harris is leagues better. Like they don't belong to the same species, better.

[@33staygold]

+bismarchiavelli; so true hahaha

[@dimmacommunication]

+bismarchiavelli yeah chris is much better, just one of the best reviewer ever seen

[@Pr0crustesify]

I love that it's at Kyalami, you know being South African I always watch these tests form other circuits, thanks Porsche for buying the place and bringing it back to life.

[@kreationlaboratory1635]

I like this fella, honest simple approach, and he can drive.....

[@boy638]

I wonder why a huge company like Porsche under the VW group can't make a full carbon tub like the smaller McLaren company.

[@eeterp32]

+boy638 who says they can't?

[@boy638]

eeterp32 I should rephrase that haha. I meant why won't they do so :)

[@boy638]

***** Well if McLaren can sell their carbon tub 570S at 911 Turbo prices, then I'm sure Porsche can too.

[@joako2706]

+boy638 and that purpose of that would be ??? Porsche 911 is fine with aluminium and steel and does not need ultra rigid tubs for an everyday car , oh and BTW a Turbo S is an all weather weapon unlike the gimmick McLaren 540 and 570.

[@eeterp32]

+boy638 but they do. Ever heard of the Carrera GT? The 918? Porsche uses carbon tubs for their hyper cars. The turbo S is based on the 911.

[@adamlippett4293]

Great video guys. Turbo S does seem like a real world every day super car... Would get my vote every time.

[@cwizardS]

This Porsche is an absolute monster, i can imagine what it could do with cup 2 tyres and some more boost. BEAST!

[@jowelMD1]

As always, there may be faster cars or even more outrageously powerful ones but again, as always, the 911 Turbo is still the iconic standard to measure other sports cars by. I still have my old room full of 911 posters most especially the 911 Turbo and to this day I still marvel at that shape and the engineering that backs it along with the stupid fun it relentlessly provides. Thank you for this upload.

[@migueldias1631]

What a stunner! After driving the 911 carrera GTS, i see what an epic all rounder road car the 911 is and there is no doubt this car will make its owners very happy with their choice! Great job Porsche!!!

[@itswhitenoise9607]

I'm not really a 911 Turbo fan but I do love the direction that they're going in. The figures on the 991.2 TS are pretty impressive! This is definitely a 'usable' Supercar, I love the fact that some design cues that have been filtered down from the 918.

[@iLykeCahrs]

What a great review in my birth country. EVO, I love your reviews. I notice that your KZbin videos sound almost exactly the same in my head when I read your book.

[@Kingdonnerkebab]

Utter class this car, want one so badly.

[@thecarbandits7834]

only Evo and Chris Harris do amazing reviews like this. we need a comparison test vs the GTR, R8 and 570s.

[@mariokajin]

Evo, is there any other car manufacturer than Porsche?

[@Autophorie]

Best 991.2 Turbo S Review so far. Great driving footage btw.

[@marc24rennen]

The 911 concept is about this. Its the people who make the most out of one concept and keep modifying it. This is something very rare today.

[@jayman81424]

I want to see the Turbo S with some cup 2's. That would be badass.

[@tan9640]

You cant go wrong with a porsche

[@pat_7267]

You are definitely getting better at presenting Dan...keep it up!

[@stevehash158]

Good review He has done his homework and talks about specific details in every aspect of the game very good indeed. I`ve never seen him before. Great driver skills as well looks like Jetro have a competitor..

[@muratk.8296]

Dan - well done! You are getting better in presenting. And 911 turbo s - very nice and capable. Only problem is the depreciation.

[@WorldwideDarts]

If I ever hit the Powerball this would be right towards the top of my list.

[@JefferyQueen]

if i was driving the 911 turbos s i would have a smile on that would not leave my face... show me some of that emotion

[@HectorSanchez92]

EVO by far has the best journalists.

[@user199543999]

Thank you for NOT using the overused/redundant word "experience" even once.

[@MTreddevil12]

Give it GT3 aero and sticky cup 2 tires. Essentially a GT2 but with awd...would be insane.

[@VirusTornado]

+Macus Thomas Well that's what they did with the older GT2s. I don't know why Porsche hasn't made a 991 GT2 yet :(

[@nickhoffman7344]

+VirusTornado I think I remember reading that a designer/engineer from Porsche said that there is not enough they could/would want to do that would differentiate it from a turbo s so it doesn't really have a place in the lineup anymore.

[@VirusTornado]

Nick Hoffman Well the GT2s were manual and RWD, and they were more track focused with much less weight. Basically a manual GT3 with a Turbo S engine.

[@SenszR]

+VirusTornado They are making it now.

[@VirusTornado]

SenszR I hope!

[@HarizHafiGarden]

I like the guy that did the 991.1 Turbo S review WHERE IS HE

[@Magic_Vince]

this presenter is top notch, especially in describing the driving dynamics

[@Sweet_Clod]

looks beautiful in that peach paint job, also looks like it can go around a track quite well. keep up the good work guys!

[@DriveThruo]

it's an incremental change rather than a leapfrog. That makes it special because it's consistent.

[@pope400]

In March, we'll see one of the best 911's ever designed.

[@dzeepndlovu626]

Porsche has transformed this racetrack ...

[@kie-skatemods4141]

I would like to see this go up against the 2017 Nissan GT-R. Since both cars has been given an additional 20hp the comparison would be a joy and entertaining to watch.

[@graemedavies1272]

Porsche tech still killing it! I would be happy with the straight 6 carrera on good tyres

[@longtailgt]

I really like the new 991 Turbo. Both in looks and performance. The new wheels look fantastic. Well done Porsche!

[@RealKaiserBelial]

since top gear is dead i consider watching you guys

[@TheBucketOfTruth]

You say this is the first time a Turbo S has used different turbos from the standard Turbo, but if you remember the 2005 996 Turbo used K24 Turbos like in the GT2 whereas the standard Turbo used K16 turbochargers (unless you chose the optional X50 powerkit).

[@castlazary8706]

Great video, top job Prosser, but I miss the more road-oriented content; a lot of 'Evo' cars are first and foremost road cars which are also pretty handy round a circuit, so I'd love to see a bit more road action as well as the track blasts!

[@tomprebble7708]

Is there going to be a new 911 GTS for 2016??

[@soldieroftafari]

Those are some pretty impressive drifts to be driving a turbo. Nice driving!

[@shakeandbake808]

Comparison between the Turbo S, R8 V10, and 570s pretty please?

[@robinchok]

Drove a Turbo S back to back with my own Boxster GTS, the Turbo is exciting if you have lots of room and speed limit. For daily use, it's dull as yiu can't really use any of the power unless you have Autobahn. The Boxster GTS with the sound feels faster and Raw even at 60-80km/h. The Turbo, fun starts at 120kph!

[@stefanolongdick2874]

I don't know that Porsche could be that fast

[@theflanman1986]

Stefano Longdick well now you know

[@slyck101]

best car review I've seen. great job. the turbo s looks like a total joy ride, sounds good, but not great.

[@ahmf155]

It's the best everyday super car by miles, absolutely love it

[@Nunga08]

You guys have one of the best jobs going around. Great video, great car. I think I'd still prefer a Carrera GTS though with the manual box and standard suspension.

[@CleKoh]

Eager to see a comparison with the 570S and the R8 V10 Plus. But im sort of afraid of the Turbo-911s regarding the GT-Department. The GT3 RS is sharp and pure but the gap to the "allrounder" just keeps getting bigger. Please make a GT3 RS and an a bit softer 911 R that is the new benchmark in that segment.

[@aswinprasetyo3211]

What do u think about the styling tweaks? I personally like the previous 991 Turbo S curved, rectangular LED lights in the front rather than two unemotional bars of lights. But still not a fan of those four-points DRL LED lights.

[@anomalousresult]

Looks amazing, would love to hear a bit more about its "everyday" credentials vs the purported ride quality of the 570s. Does 4wd mean much in conditions other than snow when electronics are so capable now?

[@MikeKleinsteuber]

It's a monumental car and the most fun I've had for a long time....

[@viximano]

the waiting for this video was worth it. just great!!!!

[@HesteBremse]

What it think is what you think, I have never driven on of these so I do not have a clue how good it is in comparison to an older Carrera 4S or the likes. Good solid first take review - Dan Prosser is a really great reviewer IMO. A little tiny more bit of fun would crown the cake. Thanks a lot :D

[@v8monster186]

There is nothing better than this

[@peoplewhotalkshiteonyoutub4055]

Good on the guy doing the review, the Evo blokes are mag journalists who aren't used to tv like Clarkson for example but they are doing a good job. You can compare the 911 to an R8 coz the stats are similar as is the price. I know what you mean by saying can't compare Audi to Porsche however it's not a 1.6 A3 it's an R8 so it's a fair comparison.

[@mha2263]

This and the gt3 rs are on another level in terms of performance

[@NuclearGrizzly]

I have a '15 Turbo S. If she has any shortcomings I haven't found them. Everything from a track day to a cross country road trip. And rain is just a minor annoyance.

[@SpeedFreak0122]

EVO in South Africa! I Love it:)

[@porschefam6269]

Courage changes everything..Porsche rules, My Day driving super car 911 turbo s

[@Tousanx]

I would of like see how you would review the car in every day settings like street driving, or you thoughts after spending a week in the car coming and going to work since the title said everyday supercar, but I love the 911 turbo S anyways. Thanks for the video.

[@SimonvRdn]

Great Video, mental car! I'd love to see a 0-120 mph between the 918 and this Turbo s

[@robertchalmers8487]

Looks gorgeous, and pulls like a train, I love it!

[@rupersters]

I keep living THE 911 when THE money is there, I want an 1987 and most recent version, THE sound is better in he years

[@Aireisor]

How does it drift so nicely? Is it rwd or awd?

[@madalex26]

wow what a car! i love those drifts in the corners!! I wish I could test drive a car like that!

[@carrionremains926]

still love my 1977 911S targa but all 911s are great!!!

[@eea1119]

Could you take it to Anglesey so as to compare its lap time with the 991.1?

[@100vasiliy]

there is many awesome things about this car, but one thing that really stands out is the awesome steering wheel

[@jayh5641]

awesome video. in this category in my opinion the turbo s takes it hands down. Porsche engineering is second to none and the turbo possesses real world pace the others won't match. 😎

[@SuperSimmy01]

We need a track battle! Turbo s vs Audi R8 V10+

[@rgassaf1]

Possibly the best car money can buy on a usable category.

[@TechTrader108]

just has to be The Best in the league.....a car u can thrash on a circuit, and then drive down to a shopping mall..... the Best Car ever

[@darkmist977]

I must say i really used to hate this presenter, to the point where i nearly unsubbed. Glad i didnt, he took the feedback and now he is pretty awesome. Car is beautiful. I'll take two.

[@IsiahHD]

Probably the best all-rounder on the market. Slap some tires from the GT3 RS on this thing and it'll probably hang with pretty much anything you can throw at it.

[@jimfastlane28]

New 911 Turbo S vs Audi R8 V10 Plus track battle coming soon including drag race??!

[@masqueman01]

Sweet slides. Enjoyed this

[@adamlippett4293]

Need more videos guys.... Surely Focus RS up next?

[@christianmhoffman4138]

Dear EVO, can you make a video with all Porsche related cars. I'm confused which one is entry and which is top of the range. Turbo or TurboS or GT3-RS or GT2 or GT2-S literally I have no idea. Thanks.

[@FreshlySnipes]

I'm trying to decide between the Turbo and Turbo S. Is the S really worth the extra price tag???

[@elliotjames158]

what did you end up getting?

[@rangermaverick85]

you will get the S in your next dream

[@ChewBacca2339]

Are they reviewing the new 911 turbo s or the old one?

[@petardenchev75]

It is so perfect, that it becomes boring. One of the best sport cars today, but I would still rather have a Ferrari :)

[@athlete35392]

For my money this is the one to have. My spec would be body colour side intakes and delete the rear wing. As a daily I enjoy 'subtleness'.

[@leehartshorn1479]

those o-62 times are stupidly quick but I'd love to see how extreme Porsche could make a 991 gt2 or even a gt2rs!

[@dschonsie]

what i think of the 911? don't know, i've never had the pleasure to drive one. it looks gorgeous, that's all i can say.

[@Discoboyaka]

just wanted to see the launch control instead of more drifts ......good job tho evo

[@najimmomani5699]

That's how Porsche keep us a big fans of it .....👍. God I love it 😀
