    Agree about the ACC, Nick. I'm glad I saw your prior videos on the topic, and ended up selecting it in my C4S. Very nice feature on these brutal SF Bay Area freeways, when I drive the 911 to work.

    I wanted to like this video 9 times! First you've almost convinced me to go for a used base 911 and later (once I've saved some money) get it tuned, and two - the Tui cocaine thing had me on the floor! I'm actually trying to decide between a 911, Cayman S, and believe it or not, an M3 comp pkg (love the Sakhir Orange 2), and I had an e92 335 I just loved.

    • @BPawn6
      @BPawn6 6 лет назад +2

      I agree - makes it hard to decide. Test drove a Cayman S and it reminded me of the 944 S2 (with much more power) that I should have kept. After buying a new house (bricks before toys), and a new job - I think - the numbers will say what I get.

  • @fredhassenDogtraining
    @fredhassenDogtraining 6 лет назад +3

    I agree 100% with the adaptive cruise control. I bought a Turbo S in Chicago and drove it back home to Vegas and it had ACC.
    My previous Turbo S did not have it, so I wasn’t sure exactly what the car was doing at first on my drive, then I figured it out and messed with it all the way home trying to trick it etc.
    It’s fair to say it made the drive at least 30% easier. It is also great in bumper to bumper traffic and makes it pretty much impossible to rear end someone.
    Our Dealership rarely orders it also which I also think is silly.
    Once you use it, it makes regular cruise control seem prehistoric.

  • @davidsteinhafel2194

  • @Doublecrimper

    @jabiqq 6 лет назад

    Interesting bit about the ACC. I recently had a rental car, a Peugeot 108. I found a speed limiter function which was quite useful as a cruise control. Just gently floor it and keep it there and the car will stay at selected speed. The top speed I could select was 157mph (seriously). I'm wondering if Peugeot engineers had freefall speed in mind?

    Hi Nick, Thank you for a great Video. May I ask you wish lens you use on your Canon 80d when you film yourself driving the cars. And the mount, or to be more precise, the aluminum frame around your camera, is that to avoid flipping the camera upside​ down?

    I feel like I’m out of line for saying this because no one else has but the Carrera 4 models don’t have turbo chargers…. Right? Only the 911 Turbo, Turbo S, and GT2 RS have turbos?

    • @LEADitOUT
      @LEADitOUT Год назад

      Incorrect. The 991.2 and 992 Carrera's are all turbocharged. As of 2017, the only naturally aspirated 911's are the GT3 models.

  • @ralphpearce1
    @ralphpearce1 5 лет назад

    Nick, I like your videos. I think on the second run you were rolling a bit faster when you started and it seems as if you applied in a manner that would be faster than most people's reaction speed. It looks like roughly 50 hp to me.

  • @robbae9307

  • @TheJohn8765
    @TheJohn8765 6 лет назад +1

    Nick, you might consider befriending a dyno-provider in your area. I'd love to see you test the "tuned" cars vs stock ones. The whole "3-2-1-GO!" "seat of the pants" stuff doesn't really show much except some people have slower reactions or a "faster" car. "Faster" isn't esp qualitative. (not a criticism, just a critique)

  • @hinglemccringleberry5503
    @hinglemccringleberry5503 6 лет назад

    So what’s going on here? Is Porsche giving lower hp numbers on the S than it actually is or is that tune only like 50hp not 100?

  • @tomasz899
    @tomasz899 6 лет назад +2

    I don't think options like ACC should be offered with new cars. This is not self driving car. You still have to pay attention, analyze, react for what is happening on the road. But with devices like ACC and lane assist first thing most people do is to play with their phones to check instagram or facebook...
    I think actually that any device which allows the driver to not pay attention in NOT self driving car is something opposite to safety device.
    And really... Turning and maintaining constant, safe speed accurate for the conditions is actually essence of DRIVING a car. There are no easier elements to whole process. So maybe You should not be allowed to drive car if you need lane assist or radar to keep the same distance to car in front.

    • @NickMurray
      @NickMurray  6 лет назад +2

      Tomasz Paluch I would disagree, the ACC has far superior reaction time to any human and it reduces the fatigue we all suffer on long journeys, you still need to watch the road but these Technology’s allow the driver to stay far more alert. Well that has certainly been my personal experience

  • @Poorschedriver
    @Poorschedriver 6 лет назад +2

    Good video Nick but I think you left out one thing that showed up between the 2 dragraces; power delivery. If I'm not mistaken don't those cars have different turbos or geometry? I wonder if the Carrera is able to hit a high peak HP but doesn't deliver power under the curve in the same way as the CS does because of other engine factors like smaller turbos. Also I'd be interested to see how it drives on a back road since you claim the CS is almost too fast to enjoy spirited, yet the tuned carrera is it's own animal.

    • @luisrosado7223

    Nick, I think a dyno comparison would be very informative in your tests. It removes a lot of subjectivity and may even reveal some 'hidden' horsepower not claimed by the manufacturer. Timed 0-60, 0-100 and drag strip times too please.
    I know this is a lot more work for you but perhaps it might mean more views too?
    Would love to see "that is not correct" shirts in your shop too btw.

    It would seem, that if a Carrera T was just a little underpowered, a tune might be in order. Does a quality tune always negate the factory warranty, or do tuners offer their own warranty? What can a person expect to pay for a quality tune? Thanks for an entertaining video.

      Tuning a Porsche is trash. Unless your name is Manthey.

    First time I disliked one of your videos. You should've titled this "Porsche 911 ACC Review" I expected you to talk more about the tune, pricing, try rolling drags at 20/40/60mph speeds and even a drag from a complete stand still to compare. If I were you, I would redo this tune review video.
