Thank you to the doctor who reanimated Nick and brought him back to us ! We've missed you Nick !!
You're welcome.
As a Porsche configurator addict, the addition of being able to see the paint to sample colors on the car was my #1 request. What a joy to have your review to watch to start my weekend. Humor, insight, honesty, Porsche--thank you Nick.
I love this „new“ feature. And I am still waiting to see the deviating stitches again. Still don’t know why they removed that years ago
Same I spent time daily on it. Can't wait to place my order
This video saved me. I have a 991 and was going to trade in for a 992 (C2S). I was preparing to order in early 2021, held off for a while bc of the massive delays, then over the past few months I was thinking "well looks like delays aren't going anywhere, might as well get my order in." But I had NOT considered, after so much time had gone by during pandemic, that it was getting close to 992.2 availability such that - as you suggested - I should just wait another year for the .2.
You continue putting out the most practical Porsche advice on RUclips, and this video in particular may have saved me from making a decision I would regret. Thanks!
992.2 will have all digital gauges which is a huge negative
I was about to type nearly the same comment. I’ve had a deposit down for 6 months and still no allocation but at this point I’m just going to wait until next year. Nick to the rescue!
Get in line for both, and sell the 992.1 when the 992.2 arrives. Makes the most sense in a supply-limited situation.
But even if you order now, it is likely you won't get an allocation until the 992.2 is introduced. So don't wait.
Nick, glad to see you back. We need more content. Love the channel.
I'm still happy with my 2019 Carrera 991.2. I like the analog gauges and a real shifter for the PDK instead of the shaver.
Nick, I'm sooo impressed by your courage to speak the truth! Floating turds are indeed a problem!
Thank you Nick! Things to expect from 992.II so far: Turbo goes hybrid, dashboard goes fully digital with more compact layout and a lifted Safari/Dakar version joins a lineup.
So if you want your analog-ish rev counter, the Mk1 is the last chance of getting it🤗
991.2 still have the best gauges with just enough tech
I love that fact my 992 has an analog tach
@@RNMAutomotiveAddiction agreed 👍🏻
I disagree 911 has always been the least gimmicky sports car out there and hopefully Porsche is smart enough to realize a classy analog rev counter is more pleasant and better to read than digital like a fine mechanical watch it they ditched the analog tach it would be a very bad move at least keep it as a cost option.
@@gtperfection1596 it appears from spy shots of the 992.2 that the 2024 model year will not have an analog tach. Dash will be all digital like the Taycan. 😔
Finally someone I can agree with on so many items - 50 shades of gray, reviewers praising the great gts witout checking if it actually is better then the s, manual gearbox, ugly duckwings and so much else... you are a ray of sunshine on youtube 👍
Hi Nick,
I have been following your channel for ages now. I can’t believe you have been that patient with Porsche. You have a great attitude towards this. Real easy going!
I just took receipt of my new 911 992. I had to wait 18 months. First it was 12 months then got pushed back.i got it in aventurine green with dual colour interior and red stitching. Other aesthetics including ambient lighting, and the Porsche logo when opening the door in the dark (which I know you don’t like that) Also the privacy glass with too.
I got the chrono package, the nanotechnology exhausts lol which I also know you aren’t that keen on, PDK, BOSE sound system an apron on the front., PDLS, Plus some other options like additional stuff like leather on the wheel as and some of the extra power steering stalk plus some other options I can’t recall as of now.
I wish I could send you a photo of it. See what you think of it. might not be your cup of tea but it ticks all my boxes.
Thanks for all,the great content. It’s been really useful for me! Have a great 2024!
I’d love to get your impressions on my new 911S. Do you know how I can share some photos?
With all of the uninspiring Porsche RUclips vlogger’s out there, Nick is a truly refreshing 25-30 minutes. He is NOT a mouthpiece for Porsche but is an obvious true enthusiast that knows what he’s talking about. Unvarnished opinion that actually makes my smile and chuckle. he is the “go to” resource for anyone interested in what’s happening with Porsche! Thanks, Nick!
I quite like the duck tail spoiler. I always thought it would have been a good addition to the GT3 Touring and an option on rest of the range. Really like the heritage design interiors too, looks fantastic!
Miss you and your loooong videos!!!hahaha!!! You always bringing Porsche News to us!! Thanks Nick!!! I will be waiting the 992.2!!
Nick, you're spot on. As the owner of many Tesla models I don't go looking at a Porsche for acceleration numbers. If people are talking about 400 vs 500 vs 600, just stop. The Plaid S will still smoke whatever you just paid $300k for. You buy a Porsche for the Porsche driving experience, not to run 0-60 in 2.2. I'm finally coming around to your concept of "400hp is enough", because chasing it in an NA or Turbo was fun, right up until I bought Tesla's. You can already get that warp speed for $60k (M3P) so why chase? Buy that, then buy a car for the experience and you have both.
Mark this day in history, Nick no longer hates speed yellow! A definite sign of the apocalypse.
I may have converted him :)
Wait until Nick stops hating gray cars
It will always be more fun to drive a slow (and light-weight) car fast than a fast car slow. That's why I own a 987 :)
Excellent review, as usual. I really respect Nick's opinions that often go against the general consensus in Porsche world. In particular I agree that the GTS is pointless, and that the Turbo has way too much power to be enjoyable.
Mate I'm trying to finish an edit and keep getting distracted, you have just delayed me another 24 mins! Hope you're well man ♥️
Maybe turn off social media for a while and u will see that your life will be better. Too many people spend hours everyday on it. No? Read what psychologists says about social media.
@@MemoryLaneCinema Bro, he is being ironic, just a bit of banter 😉
@@MemoryLaneCinema RUclips is not social media. But yes, one can spend hours on it.
@@BestCarSound nah. he is a tuber obviously.
@@MemoryLaneCinema Yeah, but do you know they are friends, Joe and Nick? Both great personalities with sense of humor that's not for you.
Just ran the configurator on our 2022. The equivalent car is now $7k more.
wenn i spec an S, i basicly come to the same options as the GTS has standard ...
the front bumper is an absolute must, the stock is sooo hidiously square
so the GTS is actualy cheaper as an S with the same options, and has 30 more HP ^^
.... and beter retail in the end
Great. Honest. Thanks much, Nick. I had a 991 base Carrera, 7 speed. Loved it. Decided to upgrade to a 992 Turbo. Great car. But the 7 speed Carrera was more fun and I liked it so much more. Maybe I will wait it out for a manual Turbo. Appreciate what you contribute to this community!
That's a big upgrade mate. Could you please go into detail of why the Carrera suits you more than the Turbo?
Thanks Nick, I personally enjoy your skeptical and cranky opinions as well as moments of "pulling back the curtain" for this brand. At the same time you're an enthusiast ... we're animals who need to be reminded of the cage we live in I guess. Taking delivery of a 2024 T in the next month or so. Spec'd it mildly. Looking forward to this base version with a few chassis upgrades. I'm sure you've seen IGM now in person, and probably agree it's quite different than Silver. I consider it a PTS alternative without the price - it's a modern, dynamic color looking white, cool grey, and light blue all at once depending on the environmental situation. Keep then coming!
GTS is a Car that you can configure almost like a GT3 especially if you order it with the light weight package and it’s much better for daily use!
Everything you can spec on the gts you can spec on the s
@@manfromwuhan714 You can’t spec the S with the extra 30HP, light weight package, GTS package, Turbo suspension, brakes, wheels, carbon fiver bucket seats, and many other options
Your videos were a huge help when deciding what options to get on my 2021 Carrera S. I love my car and will never sell it. I think. Keep the videos coming. Great info.
I run my own channel, watch hours of RUclips and I always learn something watching your content, plus your delivery is hilarious. I think you might be onto something with the paint to sample, would make the car much rarer and probably better for resale.The S model is £102, 800 in the UK, the paint to sample another £6228 or £8k for your own colour choice, raising to £10,500 for GT cars. Thanks again great content as always.
I agree with every comment in this video! If I made this video I would have said exactly the same lines. Amazing to hear someone else thinks the same about Porsche!!
We should collaborate one day when either of us in the other’s country !!
Thanks Nick!!
I got a call that my allocation was coming up for September. I'm taking your advice and pushing it out for the 2024 model instead.
Love Nick! His honesty is so refreshing. Don’t agree with him on PDCC (I love it on my 992 C2S), but otherwise, he’s spot on with everything. Porsche should just build the 992.2 GTS with the GT3 engine. They would sell everyone they could make. Mike
I had PDCC on one of my cars and I found little difference but what I have found is that people are far my likely to get motion sickness in cars with PDCC
Re: removing options - we just took delivery of a 992.1 GTS only to be surprised about the lack of a power adjusting steering wheel. We were glad to receive a $500 coupon to our service department. Truth be told I’d prefer an all-manual setup for weight reduction so it’s really not a big deal.
I haven’t gotten through the whole video yet but a friend who sent me the link claims you have unkind things to say when comparing an S to a GTS. Well, whatever you say, boss. I’ll see you on the resale market 6 years from now and we’ll see how that goes. Cheers ✌🏼
Thanks, as always, for your authentic style and honesty. I appreciate your industry insider knowledge but more than anything you’re a Porsche guy; which is a love/question/resent relationship. Still loving my 2013 Boxster S.😊
Respect, Nick. With a face made for 144p, you continue to put out 4k videos 👍
Good call on the GTS, it's an options package.
One more thing: The reason why Nick's reviews are so much better is because this is not his full time job. Many other reviewers do youtube as their job, and thus depend on being in the good graces of the manufacturers for continued access to their cars. That explains why so many reviewers who put out entertaining content are, at the end of the day, just fanboys and advertisers, not really independent reviewers. Joe Achilles for example makes fun videos that I enjoy watching, but they are little more than BMW and Porsche fanboyism. TLDR: Nick, keep it up!
Great to see you Nick. Would be great to have a link to the entire 911 range over the years. Nice to see higher prices and the added possibility of your 911 spilling into the ocean…
The GTS has the turbo chassis, turbo brakes, stiffer sway bars, helper springs, reduced sound deadening to say a few you missed. Is that a ton, no, but enough to make a difference.
So the S is more comfortable to drive than the GTS ?
And optional lightweight package…
@@JUFFAIR101 yes
Remapped gearbox
Good info! thank you! Sport Classic has the best EXterior (except for rear bumper, that one is the best on base model)
Dreaming of a Oak Green Turbo with the Sport Classic interior and a manual transmission 😛
So cool they added the sport classic interior in a turbo/carrera.
Can’t agree more on the Turbo. I owned one with a bunch of aftermarket parts and tuned. It does 0-60 in 2.7sec. It was blazing fast, for a week…then I have to constantly looking for cops on the freeway and it wasn’t a whole lot better than a Carrera S on the track (yes, I did track days with it). I couldn’t be happier to have sold it and got a ‘95 993. Car is slower than a Camry but it was fun and more head turning than the Turbo. No regret.
Love the 993.
Holy cow, look at that paint-to-sample Viola Purple Metallic! Beautiful.
First video of yours I’ve seen… subscribed!
I think you saved me a lot of money. I was looking at a 911 Turbo S Cabriolet. I currently have a 2016 911 S Cabriolets in black and was planning on selling for the turbo. I do want a newer 911 and in blue but I think I will look at it differently now. Thanks, and my wife thanks you even more.
I'm in a minority and like getting the last model of a car in its run, there's usually some cheaper options plus all of the major issues/kinks are fixed. it sounds like Porsche are an outlier and just try and get more $. I love watching these videos but will never be able to buy one of these without burning my kids college fund. I might rewatch this in 10 years when these are second hand.
CPO in a few years?
Love how bold you are and is not afraid to voice your opinions
Nothing as exciting as a new Nick Murray video
Great video as always Nick. Glad you like Aventurine Green as this is what I have on my new 718 GTS and with silver wheels!!!
Dear Nick. Thanks for all your recommendations. Good to think about. Best, Johannes
100% agree about your favorite model picks. Used the same logic to land on my decision to get a 991.2 Carerra S. Have never regretted it. :)
The base is the best besides the fact you cannot get the manual, also the base is selling for 15 - 20k over MSRP USED! Also, there ARE NO S Allocations...or not very many, good luck getting one!
Thanks Nick. Great coverage on all topics discussed. Very much appreciated.
Good to have you back Nick, always love Porsche Content :)
I like the hump on the back. Reminds me of my mother-in-law. 😀👍❤️
Thanks Nick, it’s always good to listen to your “feet on the ground” balanced view on the 911.....yes I’m still hoping one day (soon) to buy one. Well, I’m losing my faith in BMW - even though I have my weak moments and think “ahhh the M8 coupe looks quite good” but then remember how BMW has totally let its European customers down in regards to the new 7 series (length, engines) never mind the looks!
I went for the 4s... You've never experinced a UK wet winter!
Nick, you’re appointment viewing for me. Love your fresh and unapologetic takes, count me as a huge fan.
You’re nuts about the SC and the ducktail…but to each their own! ;)
Matt Farah, from The Smoking Tire said it best, "The Turbo S just gets you in trouble faster", lol
Very interesting that they’re just now putting a dash cam option on the 2023 configurator.
In the market for a 992, and really appreciate your candid comments on the S / GTS / Targa, etc. Thank you!
In two years time every car will be electric and Nick will still be asking the same question, 'does this come in a manual?'.
Electric=no noise. No way. Never.
Nick I'd really recommend driving a 992 Turbo S. It's completely different from older generations - it's em envolving and a very rewarding driving experience. You couldn't be more wrong on this one and you'll see as soon as you touch one of these new ones :) the PCCBs had a much welcome upgrade the PDCC is a part of why these new models are so great. I'm smiling while writing this because I'd fully agree with you if you were talking about the 991 (.1 and .2) cars, but couldn't have missed even more while talking about the new car, it is truly revolutionary for the Turbo ethos. Even Mr Porsche GT Andreas Preuninger agrees!
You are a funny guy and have alot of class.
Great stuff Nick. I ordered my 2022 Cayman GTS IN August 2021. Was just told by dealership that no sports car allocations will be made for 3 or 4 months and that it will be for a 2023 at the new MSRP, about $3600 more on the base price. If i am lucky i will get delivery next March.
Thank you for the updates. I really enjoy all your videos. On a personal note, I ordered a base 2022 Cayenne heavily optioned last January with delivery in (originally May) June. In April, my dealer notified me that Porsche unknown to them dropped the Premium Plus and the ventilated rear seats to only the Premium package. So, we reordered the Cayenne now as a 2023 Platinum edition with all my options for delivery in mid-August. Per my dealer, the vehicle is in 250 code and appears Porsche hasn’t deleted any options. Hopefully, the Cayenne will arrive as ordered. Crossing my fingers. We are trading in our 2018 Macan S as we require more space for grandchildren and car seats.
I just ordered a 2023 Plat edition as well(arriving ~November). Apparently the 2023 model year Cayenne is receiving a facelift? There have been a lot of leaks online regarding it.
Nick, you are alive!
Love your opinion on praising the S model. Not sure about the PTS though. The configurator update is a good thing but the problem is, who is gonna pay over 11K USD for just a paint??
I will have one .So happy !
Another AWESOME Video! I’m waiting another year for the 992.2 options to be released. Keep up the great work.
I missed these breakdowns. Great job Nick!
You may need to update this @nick, with the new Carrera T now "unhobbling" the base engine with manual, sport chrono, PTV, sport exhaust, PASM+ and S wheels all standard and rear wheel steer available. I'm on a one year waitlist, hopefully an allocation pops up.
Actually it became a one month waitlist and now I have a June '24 T build. Of course they jacked up the prices.
The Porsche Contrarian - entertaining as ever!
Racing yellow for the win!
17:00 Speaking of colors...
I've a 1996 993 C2 IRIS BLUE METALLIC, 60,000 miles, 6-speed manny tranny. No CEL. No oil leaks.
Superb video as always, thanks Nick, love that green.
Excellent advice as always. You’ve helped tremendously as I narrow down opps on the wish list 👍👌🏁 Thank you Sir Nick.
Respect your opinions, but will differ on buying a last year model. I bought a late production 991.2 C4S (Florida rain) just a few months before the line was shut down for 992 retooling. Wanted to keep the analog gauges and no piano black surfaces. Figured by this time 991.2 bugs were squashed. So far, so good, 3+ years/20k miles and one hiccup, the rear lid struts failed. No rattles, and engine seems smoother with the miles. To your point, I won't buy 1st year production new or significantly revamped models due to bugs. Keep up the good work, always happy to tune in.
Amazing video. Good man. Thank you for doing these videos. 🎉
As a 991.2 Turbo owner I can say that the speed never gets boring.
I drove my buddy’s 991.2 turbo and when I merged onto the freeway I was nearly up to triple digits at not even half throttle! Super fast but I’m worried I would lose my license in short order. Even with my modest 981 Boxster S tuned to 360hp I can’t come close to exploiting the full performance of the car and I don’t have access to a track so I’ll stick to NA cars! But the turbos are wonderful cars, for sure. 👍🏻
Thanks for this Nick - I value your opinion!
Good info - thanks. Also, Mamba Green is the best PTS color ever!
Just got a 981 cayman s. First Porsche and I’m over the moon
Welcome back Nick, hope you are well. Cheers 🍻
Welcome back Nick!! You’re always missed
Hello Nick! Hope all is well with you and your family.
Hi Nick. Love to watch your videos while having my coffe. Feels like having a chat with a friend. Can I request a similar video with the taycans? Loved to hear your thoughts about them. Cheers ✌🏻
waiting for the 2024 model sounds straightforward - but realistically - at this stage with their current production schedule being 1/2ved - the 24' model will be delivered in 26........... no joke !
If an allocation becomes available for a 2024 at this rate it will be a miracle.
The S and Touring are MY two favorites from the range… are we agreeing on something?! Oh no wait… the Sports Classic… LOVE THE DUCK, NICK! Love. The. Duck.
Great job as always! I think the PTS is the best approach for color options. The viper green is my favorite. It would be cool to see the S vs GTS comparison video. Thanks for the good content!
Hi Nick,
Are you planning to do a 2024 updates video?
Love your perspective!
You had me agreeing with most of your points right up until you said get the Plaid over ANY Porsche. That thing Tesla is a one trick Pony with build quality issues I'd expect to see on an 80's GM/Ford/Chrysler product. Nope, no way, I know too many people with issues with Tesla's, the company, things just falling off, to pick any of them over the quality of a Porsche...nope. Now, bring on the 911 Turbo S with a manual!
Nice update! My IT boss is quitting and you'd be a perfect replacement. You'd get less pay, more bureaucracy and generally more headaches. But on the flipside you'd be working with me! Just send me your resume and I'll get you in.
Hold on……….Nick, did I hear you say ……..” I actually like Racing Yellow”👍👍😂😂
Really enjoy your videos Nick, and have done so for years. Just placed my order for a 992.2 in Aventurine Green with tan and b&w hounds tooth interior, having driven Porsches only since 2009. Keep it up!
Mark.
PS. Get Gorillas in your shop! I’d buy one … along with a … “Gorillas do it in the back seat” t-shirt.
I have been obsessed with paint to sample and now they have them available! I am spending way too much time dreaming for something I’ll never actually get 🤣
I like the big wing on the GT3. I don't understand the love for the touring package that makes the car look like an ordinary 911.
I ordered a 992.1 Carrera S that will be delivered in September. I probably have one of the last 992.1 manual transmission to be built. I totally disagree with buying the last year of a model year. Especially since the manual transmission will be much harder (in not impossible) to get in the future.
🚘 Nick, thanks for this review. I’m in the market for a 911 & this has me thinking twice about certain models. THANK YOU!
So many opinions! whoa!
The Sport Classic is not ugly. Also, deletion of the Heritage Design Decal on the doors is an option on the configurator.
About 3 months into a 5 month wait for a '22 Macan S I received an email from Porsche. It said, your Macan S will not have a power adjustable steering column. We're giving you a $500 credit. There was not going to be a negotiation. Take the deal or cancel the order. Some day consumers will have the negotiating leverage again. Edit- to echo Nick's claim, I did get a little bit of a discount on the Macan S (even before the power adjustable steering column situation).
