James and Thomas are great and the key reason why so many of us come back for more, but I wanted to say props to the editors and production as well. I know production quality has been steadily increasing over the years of watching you guys, but something about this video made me realize how far you've all come compared to the videos from way back when. Props!

Huge sudden forces on drive train components instead of smooth and gradual do take a toll on things. Cars are delicate complex things, slamming drivetrain units back and forth 20 times, even if it will not immediately break it, should make mechanically inclined people cringe.

When you have Jason Camisa on your channel, it’s because your channel is a good one. And I’m sure that Thomas and James arw proud to read that they are “compared” to THE reference.

14:50 I would actually argue that you don't have to buy a 911 S/T to get this kind of experience, because a new ND Miata at 2,300 LBS offers a very similar drive to this car. Extremely light weight, a revvy NA engine, soft suspension, little sound deadening and a fantastic manual gearbox. But apart from that, this really is it. What a glorious machine.

@@AI-qd4vb I can guarantee you haven't actually driven an ND if you call the engine "anemic" or the chassis "fragile". There's very little cowl shake to speak of, only over rough train tracks, and the engine is a wonderfully responsive unit with throttle response like a motorbike, and revs that drop the instant you go for an upshift. It is true the Miata is not a laser-precise machine, but if you watch the S/T review again, neither is that in comparison to the GT3. If you actually boil down what makes the 911 S/T special, the Miata offers pretty much the same kind of experience minus the horsepower, but even then the power it has is enough for someone that doesn't care about the number on the dash, rather how the car actually feels to rev out. For a tenth of the price, that's pretty damn impressive.

My son and I went driving this past weekend and one of the dealers we went to was a Porsche dealer for a 2014 Cayman S. Firstly, the Cayman was a good driving car, the flat 6 sounded amazing and the PDK was the fastest I've driven. Having said that Porsche pricing is insane. This 10 year old Cayman S with upholstery damage, fender damage and PPF needing to be replaced was $45k. They had candy colored almost new 911 turbo S's in the showroom for $299k and $280 respectively, for used sub-1000 mile cars. Umm Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren, Aston Martin... I'll take a Z06 for almost 1/3rd the cost or a Lotus Emira for 1/3rd, F-Type R, SL 63AMG... Too many drink the Porsche Kool-Aid.

It’s about 3k pounds and if James and Thomas can say that’s light, no one has the right to complain about the Emira for weighing the same just because the previous Evora and Elise was lighter
@alistairwillock7266
@alistairwillock7266 8 ай бұрын
If you want to pass modern safety standards, and hit Porsche's performance _and_ reliability standards, and _not_ cost millions of dollars like a GMA T.50... You end up weighing around 3000 pounds. Note that the McLaren 750s weighs about the same... And that Ferrari couldn't hit this number if the company's life depended on it. As for Thomas's 50k stripped-down manual, RWD, 300HP dream car... That's just unrealistic car journalist mouthings. You absolutely can _NOT_ engineer an uncompromised platform to base a car like that on and hit anything _near_ the 50k price point in 2024. Absolutely not.

People do this just to be able to choose the spec and to get future allocations. In reality it's probably cheaper to buy second hand even with huge markups! And I bet some people will sell the S/T because they only bought it to get an allocation for something better in their eyes, like a Speedster or the 918 successor!
