2017 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S PDK - One Take
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 июн 2016
- Though the purists may not be down with Porsche's new "all turbo" lineup of sports cars, I have to admit - I'm on board with it. From the base Carrera which is now a legitimately fast car, to the new 4S, which I fell in love with during our week with the car. The Carrera 4S carries a bit more weight than the base car, but packs a 420 HP punch, incredible ride quality and handling, and the kind of practicality that would make me want to daily drive this thing through all four seasons. The Smoking Tire Podcast's Zack Klapman joins Matt for this review.

The more you go down the rabbit hole with the engineering, the more you become a Porsche fanatic. Every single thing is so precise and so well thought-out that it's just astonishing.
Zach was a great idea! Use him for every press car one take
Agreed! He always adds so much humor while staying on point. Definitely enjoy him on the podcast. Compliments Matt VERY well!!
Agreed. More Zach!
This. 👌
Or don't and that would be great too.
I was going to type the same comment, I'll just upvote yours. Zach is a funny guy.
Im really happy you chose Zach to come along, for some reason I really like him. He's a character and also smart.
You really are more than just pie.
+Zack Klapman that's funny lmao
Zack Klapman engine response?turbo lag ?
I drove this car (manual) in Houston yesterday.
Hands down the best car I've ever driven....!
horn was removed to drop the price
Lmao you can tell by his face when he said that
removing the horn is a $2,000 Porsche option because it saves weight (Porsche Marketing)
dont you know it works the other way with porsche? it would cost more without horn
Options: - Horn Removed +5000$ , saving 0,001 Kg for better track performance xD
+Dgpcars1608 exactly :-)
Really glad to see Zack back in the car with you, it's like a mini TST podcast.
The new intro is a nice touch great review as always matt
You guys did good. Love the banter on the podcasts so it's good to see you guys talk about cars. Do more of these.
"Yeah its terrible, its so faaast and still sounds like a Porsche..." Loved that haha. You guys are great, thanks for all of that!
I have no idea what they are talking about but I enjoy these videos nevertheless
+Kenneth Swift sarcasm lol
how are you on this channel, if you don't know what they're talking about...
Zach is a great addition to the one-take. Hope to see more of these.
Great to have Zack in the car to bounce ideas off/keep it going while Matt is driving.
Personally, not a Porsche fan, but this looks like a great drivers car. Porsche really keeps the faith with the 911.
Love the vids Matt, keep em coming. You should replace Leblanc on Top Gear IMO.
LeBlanc can stay Evans just needs to go
***** yep, that too. Leblanc clearly is taking his unhappiness out on the screen, however, he seems flat and bored. But Evans needs to go immediately. Top Gear UK will aways be Clarkson et al, but in their absence it should be perhaps Steve Coogan, Jay K, and Matt Farah as the Yank. Although Matt would be better in US Top Gear, alongside Jerry Seinfeld and Jay Leno / Tim Allen.
+ChaosphereIX all they need to really do is drop Evans for Harris
+ChaosphereIX screw that show. it's complete shit now
amen
Give Zach more airtime! We all love him on the podcast.
As a cyclist, car enthusiast and a fan of your videos thank you for the respect you show towards cyclists.
Every video i watch about Porsche's, the more i love them. Also nice intro matt!
I've driven 991.2 4S PDK Cabrio for a day and just from that experience I have to say it would be a perfect daily driver sports car.
Id buy a $25K Porsche hatchback in a heartbeat.
GTI :)
I typed Porsche not Volkswagen..
+Diego Tobar It's definitely the closest you're ever going to get for 25k. The GTI and the R both somewhat have that "Baby Porshe" feel.
Shwa Andary He is probably thinking RWD hatch with mid engine or engine in the back...which I doubt would happen even if Porsche were to ever make a hot hatch.
I just want to own a Porsche guys ;(
lol
Cool to see Zack on here, he's one of my favorite supporting people in the podcasts.
Would definitely love to see more of Zach. Seems like a cool guy who is really funny and knows what he is talking about
My buddy and I had a car salesman in the back of a 991 Turbo LOL! So much fun! also they guy wasn't that small.
05:12 I think the word Matt is searching for is "refinement". The Porsche 911 is, and always was, a really refined sportscar.
Definitely think this is the way to go for reviewing press cars or newer cars like this. Always nice to hear a second opinion or other people's comments. Zack is a great reviewer on his own too.
The way it burbles and pops on almost every overrun is fantastic. Huge fan of the entire soundtrack.
The car seems pretty good. I never got to drive a Porsche but I imagine it's a bunch of fun and even passion that comes with it. And the sound is just awesome man! Well, good video like always :)
Oh...and really nice new intro you've got there!
Oooh new intro!
Nice me like it :)
With Zach in the car, it adds a great commentary to the video. Really enhances the video, he should come along as many press car reviews as possible. Both of you guys have a similar viewpoint with cars, and you both have a good knowledge of the spectrum. Great video, keep it up.
Before the video even started I wanted to comment that you should bring Zack or any of the other podcast guys with you when you get press cars like this, then the episode started and..... Pleasant surprise!
Crazy to watch this video while I signed a contract for a 991.2 carrera 4s three days ago. 29y old, grinding hard, paid in full. A dream come true for sure.
Congrats! 👊
I love to hear it! Congratulations dude! 🇿🇦
Nice, these are still $90K+ in good condition, you are ballin 😂
Bring Zach along more often!!
Really good with Zack. Adds a nice element. Like the new graphic entry as well. Good job!
Really enjoyed the video. Whats not to like..carving canyons in a Carrera 4S. I agree with other comments...you should do more "One Take" videos with Zack. You guys have some good back and forth banter.
The 'horn doesn't work' on a $142K car? Seriously?
Weight reduction bro. It probably was an option lol jk
It works, but it's a tone that poor people can't hear
omg lol
HAHA!
one day
For that price tag you could get a 997 GT3 (assuming in that time it doesn't skyrocket), better buy maybe?
+Ryan Cooper better fun for sure. But at the end of the day the 4s can do pretty much anything
And that is a huge part of its appeal for me and for most others who choose to buy the car. The Carrera can basically be your daily driver.
one day , I'm also hopeful for a good 997 manual transmission
work hard my main man don't let your dream be dreams :D
What a great review Matt and keep the vids coming! :) Greetings from Finland
I enjoy Zacks humor and witty comments on TST podcast
Porsches are almost too nice. Great review.
Quality information :)
All I need now is 140k. ..lol
Well you can get an older Carrera (2000 to 2005) for chump change nowadays.
>30k is chump change
No.
+headcas620 um yes
headcas620 Compared to 140k it is.
Matt- my Viper has a Prius laser gun!! Zack- you voiced my opinion about Porsche, exactly! I love that you can drive the car at 10/10's and not feel like you're gonna die...
Enjoyed having both commentary, Zach should come along more often!
more Klapman!
I thought a Mercedes SL550 would be the perfect car for SoCal?!
Yaaay! Zack is back! Thank you, Matt, for your consideration on this matter :D
Hope to see some insane cars. I really enjoyed the amount of fright the 335 "drag car" made you have!
that interior is absolutely gorgeous
I'll buy it in two years when it's only 40k... Just kidding, I still won't be able to afford it.
lol maybe in 10 years itll be 40k
***** Haha yeah true
It's a 911, not a 7 series BMW.
The bank probably owns 95% of his . Dumb way to live
+Ben Chesterman tell that to Donald trump
Great review. I have been looking at maybe buying one of these for a little while now, and I think this may have helped me make my decision!
Wow, one of the best vids you have done in the last years imo (I don't comment usually).
Wouldn't the Carrera GTS or Carrera 4 GTS be the top in the Carrera line?
There is no such thing as a 991.2 GTS yet
Not out yet for the 991.2
+TheSmokingTire +powaup Oh ok I don't really know Porsches. Was just looking at the Porsche website and saw the GTS stuff. This is like a 2017 version or something?
games0124 yea that's the last gen model on the Porsche website
Ah I see ok. So that's why this is special then.
Would you have this over a 991.1?
In my opinion definitely not. It drives better and is more dynamic and the new PCM is better, but the naturally aspirated engine just sounded so much better and is in my opinion a lot more emotional to drive.
Yeah. While I had this press car I drove a modified 991.1. The turbo car would walk the NA car so fast it's a joke. Once you try the turbo motors the NA motor feels like it's dragging ass
But do you really need the extra power? I mean, there are speed limits everywhere, don't you much rather enjoy the sound of the .1 ?
Wow! Maybe it's more of an enthusiasts thing. I mean we just drove the 991.1 4GTS head to head against the new 4S and none of us chose the new 991.2 because of its lack of sound and emotion. It doesn't give you that smile the 991.1 did. But it was quite impressive how fast the 991.2 reached 200 km/h on the Autobahn.
+Kaipeternicolas if I didn't know the extra power was possible, I would say no I don't need it. But because I know the car can be that fast, there's no going back. The new Boxster/Cayman is the same way. The Turbo motor is so much faster it's ridiculous, and it's faster in ways you feel on the street more so than the track.
Excellent format. Really dig it!
I'm digging the new intro, keep up the good work!
I would get a license plate frame that said "Lol at Your Evo"
The car alone says that. No need to spell it out. Well, I suppose for the knuckle-dragging Evo owners you may need to...
You can't compare them. They're at two VERY different price points. Only thing they got in common is 4WD.. What a dumb comparison. Dump the cash left over after buying an EVO and trick it out, then what?
That shit is only an open invitation to get ridiculed. People who buy these cars are supposed to know better and not have to flaunt some virtual sense of superiority. Plenty of evos out there fast enough that they won't have time to read the lols on your plate.
That's like a Corvette owner who calls out Mustangs. It just makes you look like an idiot.
yet evo will smash this with money on it...
and still have enough to buy a few more evos lol
that freaking malibu/impala
You two together are always the best and entertaining. :-)
I had the same exact feelings about the 997 GTS I did a video on! I did not want to leave the car. I wanted to live in there, I wanted to keep on driving it until I ran out of road, and then build more road so I could continue driving it.
The most shocking part of the video was the Prius driver who actually moved out of the way. I'm seriously shocked. I live in CA and Prius drivers are notorious for being the most oblivious people on the road. (notorious among people who don't drive a Prius, don't shop at whole foods and didn't vote for Bernie).
:)
Haha, Zack is such a character. You guys make a great duo. +TheSmokingTire
Greetings from Stuttgart :D
At work I drive around all kinds of Porsche Parts on a Pellet Truck (had to google that word lol)
Differentials, bits and pieces from the Inside, Transmissions and even Windshields.
I'd say every morning I got parts on the pellet truck and forklift worth around 1.25M$.
So in a way I am actually driving Porsche haha
A little question: What do you think of RWB Porsche? A lot of people seem to hate them which I don't quite understand
Personally, I love the RWB Porsche the same way I absolutely LOVE Liberty Walk Ferraris, Lambos and what not. I know you weren't asking me, but I thought that I'd chime in. lol
WikdSeafood I deleted the comment of the guy who answered to you. Not because I don't respect his opinion but because wishing death upon someone is just not okay. So glad YT has this feature..
Awesome! I have been to Stuttgart many times and even the Porsche Museum. Greetings from Luzern, Switzerland.
l33tnobody1337 One of the reasons that I love the LW kits are reactions like his. It seems it's either you love it or you hate it.
Can you please stop filming these films in USA and get somewhere where you can actually overtake people and drive it properly?
Sure! Wanna buy me a business class ticket to Europe?
+TheSmokingTire hahaha
LOL
TheSmokingTire Can't you fit in an economy seat?
Easy to say, isn't it?
two words 'amg gt'
I have a 991 Turbo and a Merc as company car, so Merc gave me a AMG GT for testdrive in the hope to replace my 911. The AMG GT is a realy nice car, but the 911 has a driving style wich no other car could match. The 911 is like a tailor-made suit, everything fits perfectly and therefore you trust the car and can drive them realy sporty without nasty surprises. You always feel at were are physical limits and can drive the car at that limits. The 911 drives extrem direct wich only can be compared as touching something with and without gloves.
+Rick2010100 that's your opinion... and at a starting price of 115 k it's an option for some . I feel like the Benz has more of a presence on the road plus a better interior
Donny Rino You say "presence on the road" but finaly mean show effect. The 911 has not this show effect, but more convincing inner values wich matter if just the show effect bores you after a while.
+Rick2010100 again that's your opinion! I believe. the Benz is faster in a straight line and I would be shocked if it was as fast on a track
Mercedes would get destroyed by the 911 Turbo and the Turbo S is in the top 5 fastest accelerating cars on the road.
Matt, Great video on how to whack off, uh, Porsche options ;^) It's nice to see you doing more of the Porsche brand new release press cars!! It's amazing that this power is now equal to the old 996 Turbo. Does sound great for a turbo car. Less darth vader then most turbos, which is a good thing! Great hearing your 1st impressions on the new turbo engines and how much you enjoy driving them. Looking forward to seeing the drive review of the base model too. As much as I still love the naturally aspirated sound, there is no denying the advantages turbos give to the torque curve! Great job Matt!
Great to see Zack here!
Cool car, but I think the new Corvette Z06 gives you more bang for the buck and, in my opinion looks much better than the Porsche.
Faster, definitely.
Probably less practical for daily driving
+851995STARGATE I agree.
Juan. Lega
But your still right, I'd rather spend my money on a more raw z06 with z07 package
corvette fanboy spotted
Really like you guys doing one takes together!
Nice to see Zack back in a TST Video!
Matt, you got this one by the zach.
Excellent! The 4s sounds lovely!
You guys pair nicely together for in-car reviews :) This car with an exhaust that goes to volume 11 would be my automobile wet dream.
thanks for the ride. absolutely brilliant.
The Carrera 4S is the ultimate all-season semi-exotic daily driver. I hear you Matt...all I would want to do is drive this too. No excuses needed.
Hey Matt upload more vids!!! Great stuff and keep em coming. Thanks.
I'm loving this format for press car one takes.
I love the configuration and color choices. I like the exterior color, the interior color choice, the Carrera s wheels. I might go for the RS wheels if I ever buy this car.
I'm glad you like Porsche and enjoy driving them, I think you need to find a new road to test on tho! Great video! I am subscribed so I don't miss any of them!
Love Zack's sense of humor
Great video, great camera angles. Makes it more enjoyable. I wondered between a targa 4s or one of these....
once you hear the new 991.2 in person with the turbos, the sound is incredible for the turbo motor and you won't think as much about the previous 991.1s. And i tend to be more of a NA kinda guy (except for the 90s jap sports cars)
At the end when they're talking, what's going on with Zach's seatbelt? (You can see the logo but it doesn't line up with his shirt....)
love the new intro. give a great fell of professionalism.
ayyyy zack has returned
Zack is cool, more of you two together please. :)
Sometimes guys who are driving in front of you won't even notice that someone behind want to pass,
In addition of that with all my respect to you Matt why do you think everyone should let you pass?
hows the eps? did they improve it more and make it feel better? also how would you rate it in comparison to the old 997 hyraulic steering cars? back 6 years ago i drove a 997 carrera s and i remember i being a much more "raw" car than the 2012 991 carrera s i drove. whats your take on it matt and how do you feel about the sound of the turbo carrera s of today?
More Matt-Zach vids. You guys have a good dynamic.
When you get stuck behind someone and have to take a "pause" do you just overtake them while the camera is off?
Drove my first 911 today and all I can say it the Baddest car out there!
that flat 6 sounds amazing! wish the 992 still sounds like this
Like how you have the camera on you and the passenger in the bottom corner and have the road ahead as the main view. So many videos have just the driver, I hope others take note.
I like this format.
I love the spool up sound of the 991.2 engine's turbos.
I like the little podcast at the end.
great great vid as usual, thax guys!
I like the one takes with just Matt a lot more!
That guy was great! You can tell he knows his stuff.
I love the intro!!
I like seeing Zack here for these press car One Takes. It's like having a video podcast!
Oh hey the M3 8380 labs shirt dude.
Rene Hourian =D
I like the addition of Zach. :)
good to see Zack again
Zack and Matt in a One Take is a real dream come true. I understand it isn't always feasible for him to join you (Matt), but if you have the opportunity, I hope you take it! Thanks~
