Just taken delivery of 992 Carrera and sounds like a bag of spanners on the motorway. Test drove 4S and Carrera T and drove Base 992 at Silverstone and took that car on the road on the day before I ordered my car and they were quiet by comparison Both test drive cars had only done a few hundred miles. So will do a few 100 more miles in my 992 and see how it sounds.

Great video! Would have been nicer if Porsche mimiced VW/Audi and put the soundaktor at the front windshield. Although that would make it seem extra fake since no sound should come from the front. On VW/Audi it can be coded at 10% increments, and I found 30% to be nice.

Thanks for the great video. I have a question about the Sound Symposer, if it is Vacuum activated, could you not just clip that small vacuum hose shut and it would prevent the valve from opening?

Probably? But the other method of stuffing the hole is just simpler and less destructive.

@@JetFuelOnly Thanks so much for replying, it’s great to be able to interact with someone who puts such effort into amazing videos and is knowledgeable about the subject! Just to make sure I’m not getting this wrong, I meant that tiny rubber hose hooked to that vacuum actuated valve, not the whole big plastic hose. I’m still waiting for my car to get here from European Delivery so it’s hard not to be able to actually go out and look at this. Ps. Great review for the ultimate cup holder, I saw pair come on eBay the other day and jumped on them based on your review.

why do people keep saying it sounds like a Subaru, when Subaru based its design on the Porsche engine? The SUBARU sounds like a Porsche, not the other way around.

If you want one of the weirdest sounds you can make with the Spyder, it’s possible to use just enough throttle to keep the engine in the wild bass drone of cylinder deactivation, but also to activate the sound symposer. 🤣 Both at once is a unique experience. 🤣

@@JetFuelOnly just go out on the freeway and turn off the auto start/stop… make sure to hit the PSE button. Then keep a steady enough throttle for it to get into cyclometer deactivation and the crazy drone that goes with it. Then add just enough throttle slowly to get the sound symposer to open a little. I’ve mostly noticed it when going up a little grade but not as much on flat ground.
