The 2021 Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet is Phenomenal - Review

We like what Porsche says about the 2021 911 Carrera S Cabriolet, "Power athlete. Design icon. Everyday hero. The 911 combines the power of a sports car with great interior comfort and the latest technology to make your everyday life easier." Well said. In this Cruisin' episode, Dave Stall features a walkthrough and tour of this new vehicle in all it's performance glory.

Hour to see you review the 2025 911 GTS T-hybrid...

Nice review, enjoyed it, but not the proper procedure for shutting the front compartment! Have to let it down to make contact then use two fingers, one on each side of the Porsche emblem, to fully close it. Doesn't close like a hood of a front engined car.

[@AGC828]

Excellent points made. Agree. True car was designed for the street for guys with no competition experience. Why modifying cars for Surrey use is a water. The rear seats are just "place holders put there do there's no empty spaces heh... Yes you can still put stuff there.. And maybe your in-law lol

Porsche’s are not for me (it doesn’t sound nice), but I’m fascinated by the engineering behind them. Excellent review!

[@CruisinChannel]

Thanks for watching!

When they are equipped with the sports exhaust and in the higher rev modes they sound amazing. They aren't obnoxiously loud like an American muscle car but the sound has much more dimension and the howl of the flat 6 is pretty iconic. These cars will rev to 7500 and they have a really nice throttle blip on the downshifts that make the car really showoff the engineering prowess that went into building it. You can also keep them pretty quiet in normal mode with the exhaust valves closed and that's what you are hearing on the street 99% of the time because most people who can afford these don't want to sound like they are on a dragstrip.

@@charp150 I’ve ridden in them at higher speeds, you’re right, they do sound a little better. There’s several in my parking garage and they all have the loud raspy sound. In my opinion, the LC500 has it just right.
