Look up the definition of a sports car and there's a good change that a #Porsche #911Carrera will be pictured right next to it. For over 50 years, Porsche has been dominating the sports car market, but the biggest problem with the car has to do with the price. While you can buy a new one for under $100,000, trying find one on dealer lots can be a huge challenge unless you special order it. Leasing a 911 is pretty common so once that vehicle is turned in, a 3 year old model like this 2015 #Carrera S can be a tempting option. Watch the video to find out if purchasing a pre-owned model delivers the same kind of thrills as someone who bought a brand new one off the showroom floor.

Your request for us to review used cars again has been heard! While we tend to focus primarily on new cars, we understand that some of you will just never buy a new car. We will try our best to review a used car from time to time so we hope you guys enjoy this one! Also, we had an audio issue that showed up during the test drive scene and because of that, we had to switch a couple times between the primary mic and our secondary mic. The bad cable has since been thrown out and there shouldn't be anymore audio issues moving forward. P.S. stay tuned till the end for some fun bloopers, sometimes filming in public locations can be a challenge... Thanks for watching guys!
Go back to ur old days reviewing old use cars mix it up

Can you Review a Police Interceptor either Taurus or Explorer?
Can you review a 2010 or 2011 Saab 9-5 turbo4
I'd love to see you review used mid range or compact cars and see how you'll react to the door's sound :P
The 991 are selling like hot cakes since the current 991.2 went Turbo I’d definitely would get a 991 Carrera S with its sweet 3.8 N/A engine 💯
I'd love to see you react to the 9000 rpm 4.0L Flat-6 in the GT3. I think that would be quite something. Great review BTW.
Just do it!
Challenge accepted. Got one I can borrow?
@@Fee.1 I wish. 😂
I love how put together you are, and then how you really let loose with your uncontrollable anger in the bloopers.
Backup cameras are mandatory on all cars sold in the United States now on cars built after May 2018. So every Porsche built after that date will have them. Personally for as much as you pay for a Porsche they should have been standard a long time ago.
I agree, especially in regards to keyless entry.
Turn you damn head and use your mirrors. Problem solved.
sdlausen I know right. Even with things like back up cameras and blind spot monitoring etc, people still can’t manage to drive.
I know if I’m dropping 90k on anything it should have that by default
Agree. Why not add that safety. These cars are going to be driven on t he STREET. In under-ground garages. Narrow streets. why not add that extra level of safety (e.g. front/rear camera, 350 camera view, ..auto park assist.). Don't want to use them turn them off. Pick-up trucks have it (Ford F159, RAM 1500...)...
911's are for posers. Which is why most buy them. STATUS. The engine is in the wrong place. No matter what suspension/engine tech they have.
This is a great video! Love that the redline team listens to us viewers! Sofyan has worked so hard for this channel to pick up, he deserves all his subscribers! Best RUclips car review channel! Thanks guys!! 🥳
That launch was great fun. Almost felt like being in the car. I remember reacting the same way when I tried it the first time. And I can confirm that sports exhaust sounds great in the 991.1 Carrera S.
Nice review. Well done. Agree the 18 way seats more comfortable than 14 ways. Sports Exhaust was a Must for me. I have 45k miles, do my own maintenance and car has had zero problems. Such a fun and beautiful car. Still turns heads and is my daily driver.
I have a 997 and previously had a Miata. I also test drove Caymans before buying my 911. One thing that may be surprising to people who haven't driven a 911 before is that the handling is not as responsive or nimble as you might expect. It has very very high handling limits and can go around a track very quickpy, but you never forget that the engine is hanging out over the back axle. It's not tossable like a Cayman or even a Miata on a twisty back road. However, the engine is truly amazing and makes up for some of the handling deficiencies. It's just a shame that the car is so fast you can't explore the redline that often.
Also, I do carry my kid in the back of my 911! It's very doable. She is in a rear facing car seat and I have a folding stroller that fits the frunk. Porsche actually sells a front facing car seat I think.
16:01 this is why you buy a porsche people.
Spot on brotha!
True that. True that.
That's what I heard!! I just bought one ten minutes ago with 30K miles. Picking it up next week
“Ex wife , we don’t need a sports car”
Keyword: Ex wife
i would buy a porsche for the corners, personally rather than the launch.
When I was younger, I daily drove a two seat roadster for 4 years, and I can assure, backseats matter even if people can't realistically ride in them. The seats in the 911 are great for stashing backpacks, groceries, jackets, and whatever else junk clutters your car.
All that and golf clubs.
Great review Sofyan. I really enjoyed this review of a used 911. This iconic sports car is the dream of many common people who will never be able to experience this exceptional automobile. Nice work here, keep up the good work!
Excellent video. I bought a 2 year old 2016 C2, I didn't need the S living in LA, and I was not going to track it. I saved a pile of money not buying the S model, but got a lot of excellent useful options. Great value, Great car,
Hey man great review! I love to see your new car reviews, but I really appreciate that you reviewed a pre owned vehicle & would love to see more! I'm one of those guys that prefer to purchase a pre owned vehicle over a new one. Would love to see more like this!
Don't know how I've missed your reviews until now. Great review; gives me a good sense of the car and your joy at the point of launch control - and when you trounced it in sport from stop, was fun to watch. As an owner of a 987.2 Cayman S I'm off to see your review of the Cayman. Well done.
"That noise!" - Scares and excites equally!!!
You don't like the external colour. I don't think its that bad. The interior however is my first choice!
Nice review! Actually very nice to see somebody review a "used" car from a buyer' perspective. Informative without the Porsche fanboy attitude. Also like your fresh perspective vs many of the older traditional reviewers of new cars who seem bored when they are not struggling to be witty.
Excellent review; very thorough and viewers will be hard pressed to find a better review on the 991.1 Carrera.
Porsches are my favorite if we are talking German cars. They offer a good blend of style , luxury , performance , and technology (I mean what's not to like 😳).
Volkswagen bros
Then Audi
Price of their options.... but beyond that, my favourite car brand bar none, along with Mclaren and Tesla
But they look like frogs.
@@tlf361 kind of weird that you like McLaren and Porsche and still somehow like Tesla. Post fans of the first two brand hates Tesla.
I was driving to work this morning and a 2017 Carrera turbo S passed me and it got me thinking about looking into a new Porsche 911 again as I had a 1987 911 and a 1989 928 , but the prices are way out of this world for such new models , but thought to myself a nice used 911 would do fine for the right price and then you posted a video on just such a used vehicle ...... awesome, thanks SB
V B so have you purchased one yet it’s been a whole 2 days 🤣
David T not yet but it’s on my list 😜.....it would be just a weekend toy anyway my current day to day is a ‘ 18 CTS-V ! 😝 and I remember SB loving the ‘17 that he test drove.
V B nice, get some video up of it could potentially grow a little fan base with a car like that.
David T was thinking the same thing about making a video just not sure because I’m not proficient videographer and would like to make it a polished video .....we will see . Thanks
A used one would be perfect provided you get a well maintained beast. I have a 2013 with 24,000 km...bought it in 2017...
Daily using it and me smile ear to ear every time I turn the key...good luck bro
Color is so important to how a car ages. The less trendy colors are IMO, usually going to look better longer.
Fyi. Back seat on the 911 have been like this forever and my kids love it..and also my golf clubs enjoy it! Never get rid of backseat!!!!
The back seat is VERY useful for young children, until probably 10 or so. My kids LOVED to ride in our 911s.
Any used Porsche for a good price, is always a bargain for performance!
MaxSpeed in Europe maybe
Imo, a lightly used pre-991.2 is one of the best sub-100K luxury sports cars you can get right now. A perfectly balanced sports car that won't cost a fortune to maintain, still looks and feels brand new (or still very "undated" if you go for a 997), with all its N/A glory, and a hefty discount.
Great review as usual. For sure I would like to see more pre owned cars. In 30 years of driving I’ve only bought 3 new cars. The real value is in a lightly used car after the initial depreciation has hit.
Porsche is the OG Enthusiast Car. Change my mind.
Nah you're right
More like the official European car of a mid life crisis
I'd say it's the corvette camaro and mustang. This is more of a car that you buy to be different from those for more money
@Keynesian Economics lmao and what do you drive Mr exotic? Anything faster than low 6 seconds in the quarter mile? Becuase if not I have a shitty peasant car that will walk the everliving fuck out of whatever super or hyper car you have posted on your nightstand 😁
@Keynesian Economics loool someones a little insecure. Whats wrong little guy? couldnt afford the m5?
Did anyone notice that the key fob is shaped like a car?
That is really cool.
Yes, Tesla also did this too.
I own a 991.1 and a Vette; these cars are almost identical in exterior dimensions - almost the exact same length, width and height. The Vette's wheelbase is larger by about 10". The Vette has grip and grunt beyond expectations, it's a MOSH PIT where the 991 is graceful and more like a symphony. Both are a joy to own and drive.
What's cool is that Porsche's was able to reproduce the sound of rusty ball bearings and broken glass in the exhaust note.
Aptly said bro
chewsir agree. As much as I love the 911s the exhaust sound is underwhelming
Are you kidding? The exhaust Sound of a Porsche flat six is among the sweetest sounds on earth !
@@Dexter_19 ..you gotta hear it from outside.
This is one of my favorite car review channels. Keep up the good work!
Thumbs up for that launch control reaction.
Holy cow 3.9 seconds for.a NA v6 is fast as hell! Wow ! I see some used 2015 911 careers s under 80k and look great ❤
This review is probably why all the used 911's I've been tracking are being snagged up lol
Why the hell are there so many negative comments? It's a review. A good, long review with LOTS of info for someone considering a purchase. Smile more and enjoy youtube. :-)
You can actually upgrade the PCM system in the 991.1 generation Porsche’s to have Carplay and to add in a backup camera. Had it done on my 2013 911 recently and it’s awesome.
Can you share where you got the the goods or dealer parts and Install?
As long is it isn't over a decade old a used Porsche is a decent bargain.
Yes. The cost of maintaining an older Porsche is outrageous.
993?
Its relative...Still depends very much on how the car was used...and maintained...my two pence
Have a very nice aftermarket warranty on my 2008 Carrera S. It’s covered a few items but less tech means less to go wrong.
It’s 10 year old car but I track it and drive it as it was mean to be driven. Maintenance has been affordable vs the Audi S4 and BMW Z4 M Coupe I had before.
Um no it's not.
Love used cars review like this! Can’t wait til you do one on a 718 Cayman. I know you have the GTS but for us folk who have the base model it would be appreciated since it technically knocks 2 birds out w/ one stone being that it’s just review on the base 718 in general. Anyways awesome review and can’t wait to see the one one the upcoming 992!
Eric Ocasio id also love to see the base cayman 718, i think itll be a great value in a couple years once it drops to around 45k preowned. 0-60 in under 4.5 sec and midengined sports car handling... mmm
VERY clean designed Porsche 911 and a car you will not be ashamed of over the years. Great video and thanks for sharing!
😢 Sold my 2017 S back to Porsche 16,000 miles agrate gray blk interior.,
Mint Not a Scratch or a mark inside.
On waiting list to order New one. Year to year half out!!
I loved that Car! Birthday Gift from Son!
Still like the look of inside over New.
Lookin at same model if not, GT3 Touring or Turbo model. Lines are amazing.
Great Video
Brought back Memories 😞
Whoever buys my Car is Getting a Great Car!
The 2015 is a great buy...but a 2005 is a REALLY great buy. But that 2015 is so beautiful you can't help but fall in love.
That was fun. I think it made a good subject for a review because you can compare it to your Cayman. Love both cars!
The Porsche 911 has been (and will always be) my favorite sports car. That Flat 6 sound will never get old at all. My first two 911s were 996s, never owned a 997 nor a 991/992 in my life.
It's time for you to up grade my friend.
"I borrowed from a good friend" are they still, after seeing your review.
Porsche is the ultimate nickel and dime machine
Bro you have the best launch reactions haha
This guy is so critical he makes me sick. He's acting like this is some inadequate old car or something. I am currently looking for a 991.1 and will never look at this car being a compromise to a new 992.
With proper analog gauges! Love it. Don’t want an iPad screen in front of me like the new models.
Its worth it simply because of that naturally aspirated engine
Zatharos I love this generation.
So how much would this car cost if you were to buy one spec'd like this CPO ?
edit: did some research and they run about $90k still, not much of a bargain considering a new cayman s is just as fast and is more nimble. Not really a bargain compared to the new 911 either which start around 95k - even the base model of those are turbocharged and pretty much as fast as the naturally aspirated 3.8.
Low mileage 2012/13 carerra S's are probably more reasonable and can be had for under 75k. 90-95k for a 3 year old one is still too much for it to be considered a bargain compared to the prices in porsche's current model line.
Jake Stoler it’s because you’re paying mostly for heritage. Get a cayman. Usually the most expensive maintenance item if you really take care of the car is the tires.
2 years ago I bought a CPO with 29k miles for $78k
RealtorRhodes you got a hell of a deal my friend, carrera s or normal?
you pay to not have a turbo 4-pot. interior is also a bit more posh. it's a car with decades of pedigree. I could go on. as eric said it looks like you should just go with the cayman if you don't care for what the 911 has over the cayman.
Most Porsche models hold their value. Some even increase depending of what it is (rare or "special"). However they are one of the most reliable and well built outside of a Lexus, but you get the a much more exciting vehicle to own. SO all in all, you really can't go wrong, with picking up even a 10 year old one. SO if a fairly new one is way outside your comfort zone, then I would get something 10 years old like a Cayman s or Carerra S
Back seats of my 911 were VERY useful for my kids, up to about age 11. Then it was time for a Panamera.
Great review. I just purchased a 2014 Carerra. I have owned 912s and a 911sc. Each car has its highlights but the 2014 is light years ahead of the 912s.
This is going to be my next car, thinking of putting around 25k down, making the payments manageable. Can’t wait!!
Great review!! An older 997 turbo is my second option but really like the more modern interior.
I truly believe 997 911 and 981 Caymans are going to be very desirable cars in the future due to the NA flat 6 howl. NOT classics, classic tag likely belong to limited models (EX. Spyder, GT, etc). Similar to like how we see on the road 993s right now. But limited stuff like an air cooled RS is another realm and can be a classic.
reason the seat wouldbt go back wheb you sat in the back is because whoever sat there adjusted the seat in the higher position. if the sest is in low, it doesnt have that problem. and my 6 year old loves riding in the back of mine with a booster. been on 2-3 hr drives with no complaints from the little one or the front passenger
A symphony of mechanical resonance. I just watched Motormouth with the jaguar svr. It's my favorite but this is a very close second to it over the best sound ever!
Lmaoo @16:00 I literally bursted out laughing at your launch control reaction lol
oh fuck!!! Rofl
It's amazing how fast cars are advancing in the last 5 -7 years. Improvements these days are significant, from a 991.2 to .1 to a 18 to 17 Mustang.
You are my second best reviewer behind Doug Demuro. Keep up the good work!
You're supposed to flip the center part back up on the cup holder. So they don't swing around when you are driving "aggressively"
Can you start showing interior/exterior lights at night?
Second!!!!!! Awesome video! Definitely will get this as my retirement gift to myself. Porsche build quality is second to none. Would have them take a look at those rattles in the cabin though.
Very good presentation and a very beautiful car.
Great review, Sofyan! It would be interesting to hear your friend's perspective on your car. Make it happen!
Thanks for the review. I actually like the anthracite brown being a not dissimilar shade to the turbo I saw back in 1975. Wish they had this option these days.
911s stopped being bargains 10 years ago. If you can afford it, it's a great car, but anything close to a bargain is some sort of 996, and if it's a well maintained 996 I doubt it will be a bargain either.
Price of a good used 997 £25k starting price of a Skoda superb £26k. Whats a bargain?
tf is he parked in the mid of the road?
I love this generation I hope I got one before the end of this years .
I’m looking for.
I can’t wait 😊
Very good video good job 👍
People complaining about 911 back seats are missing the whole point of the genius 911 packaging.
A stunning set of wheels, I bought one two years ago and have never looked back.
When the refreshed 991.2s drop in price, those will be the performance bargains. The turbo motor guarantees easy hp gains. If I get a 991, it's going to be a dot two. But from a purist perspective the 996/997 911s are the way to go. Just don't get bitten by the mod bug.
Thank you for all your hard work.
Most exited dude has ever gotten at 16min in!
My dream car💔
Buy one then,arent you arabs all rich?
Great video. Just bought my 2012 991 Carrera S Cabriolet. The previous owner put some Bilstine Coilovers, headers, air splitter (forgot name) between air intakes, and overly quite Fabspeed exhaust no loud button 😒. But had the nice carbon for the tips. Still sounds incredible after about 4000 rpm’s..Oh and step 1 tune by a company Called FVD I believe? Car is incredibly fast!
Came from a tuned built up WRX and this 911 is better in every sense of the imagination. I was into 60k on that Subie, but a major waste inbcomparison. Porsche is 40k more. Subies rock if you don’t upgrade anything but what matters. Don’t expect the car to look like it’s in that price, just it it to engine, brakes, and suspension! Not seats, and stereo’s like I did. Haha. OhI went for this 991.1 not .2 becouse it had on 10,000 km’s, with those upgrades, this is my dream come true.
Buying any new car is the worst thing you can do. 3-4 old cars are the best bang for the buck.
The back seats are the “Girls Don’t walk Seats”! It’s only to transport two girls half drunk from the Neighbourhood bar to your apartment!
i'm only here to watch you @sofyan for the failed outtakes lol!.. "THIS IS BULLSHIT!..." haha great review my friend!
While I'm not a fan of that color or Porsche in general I have to confess that is a gorgeous car.
Love your reaction on the launch haha!
I own a 991 and the steering definitely doesn't feel numb ,but harsh with that !
a video like this on the 997 would be great!
Great review as usual. I would take a 911 over any supercar. I know the pdk is faster then a manual but I wouldn't buy one unless it had a manual. Turn off all the electronic nannies and hit the road. Older 911's are slower but possesse more charm. At least the 911 still detain the flat 6, Caymans and boxsters have to make do with engines sourced from Subaru. Seriously when the best sports car producer has to have Subaru build engines for them, you know something is definitely wrong in Stuttgart. Definitely go 911 over the Subaru sourced twins.
I love the 2015 Porsche 911 but the 2019 looks better!! I can't wait for your next video.
Grate choice I’m car guy I m ready to pull the trigger on 2017 I know the cars out of all in price range 65k the best choice I like turbo 3.0
It needs a 6 speed manual!!
My last 2 Porsches were manuals. I wouldn't even consider a manual now. I'm tired of shifting, plus the PDKs are faster.
Agreed Porsches should always be manuals.
@@OMGWTFLOLSMH Tired of shifting? psst. Manual is not for you.
Your having way too much fun during this review. I am envious dude, great video!
The problem with Porsches, as with most German cars is the lack of standard equipment, and the huge cost of options. At my local dealer it is rare to find any car with less than 30% of the base price added on in options (many of which are fluff, like leather on the key fob), and some are nearly 100% over the base price. The problem with used Porsches is the cost of maintenance - even routine maintenance like an oil change.
Ha ha! The conclusion was really funny. Great review! Those roads look familiar, MD stand up!
Depends on where you live .. Here in norway a base Carrera S is 185k, and that is the BASE model. A used 991 from 2012 starts on 105k and up.
Yeah but you get to live in Norway.
The engine is good enough reason to buy older Porsche’s. The new turbos sound muted. Even a 13 Cayman with aftermarket exhaust sounds like a race car.
The only thing wrong with this car is the PDK transmission. Other than that it's perfect. I love the interior and exterior colors. Thanks.
I mean, if you want to pick up a used 911 of this gen, you should pick one 2016+ because of the redesign which fixed quite a few problems.
Really enjoying your reviews.
I just noticed that you remind me of a much younger version of Mr. Han in “Enter the Dragon”.
Love your car reviews!🙂👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
911 Carrera S is about 100k right now. It's pretty expensive.
Pretty good review. My car is 2 years older but equipped almost identically to your review car. Mine has the steel sunroof and doesn't squeak or rattle. In fact, I don't have any rattles. I did in my 997. The only difference I'm aware of is the newer cars have rear steer. Does your Cayman have rear steer? It makes a significant handling difference (I'm told).
Good to hear! Porsche does not offer rear wheel steering on the 718 Cayman or Boxster. We're guessing its a cost thing or maybe the chassis doesn't need it because it's mid-engine.
Some day I will own a car like this
Good luck, you're going to have to work extra hard for a Porsche, because they're not cheap.
I have this car. A PDK is good but you must own a manual. He knows what Porsche ownership is like. ;) It looks new, because the never change the model. Surprising. A 4S and the Turbo is wider. (Cayman....Pffft) No Porsche logo on the headrests :( When the recession hits later this year, (Hopefully) these will come way down in price.
Small kids fit in the back seat just fine. I’ve fit my entire family of 4 in my 991.1. Granted we aren’t the tallest people around!
