I have a 992.1 but I would not have been any less excited about the 992.2 . However, I prefer the .1 ignition, gauges, and rear turbo vents. Oh, and also the 992.1 price.
@@mattsellers1925 I was lucky enough to get an allocation and I paid MSRP. My dealers only stipulation was that I finance the car and not pay cash. PCNA is fairly strict about dealers charging the sticker price but most dealers will honor that but rather than having a standard ADM they will have stipulations like you have to also pay for them to do PPF in house or some other add ons. Every dealer is different but you should be able to just go and buy them now regardless of the stipulation
The only change that is an actual improvement is the front bumper. Literally every other change doesn't matter or sucks. The rear bar looks cheap and ugly. The rear fender contour is unnecessary busyness. The engine cover is extreme unnecessary busyness. Lazy redesign, just making something busier doesn't make it better.
Obviously minimal styling changes that won’t affect one’s driving experience much particularly for those that haven’t experienced older 911s. What will affect your daily driving experience will be the EU speed nanny in the vehicle. Enjoy the upgrade.
Porsche should let the client/driver decide at the configuration, if they want the digital or analog display or the start button vs. turn key. Yes, they could charge again more….
I really think Porsche will be an even smaller volume brand with these big price hikes and EVs. I had a new 992.1 that I sold as after a while it felt kind of boring and overpriced for what you get and it had quality issues. I think the Lexus LC500 is a better value if you're ok with the styling. I like the new 992.2 T offering but the price at $150k with some needed options is asking a bit much for what you get. I might be in the market again if and when they dip 7-10% below msrp, which I do see happening in the coming future.
@@mikerusznak If they use the same 3.0 twin turbo from the .1 it will almost certainly come with a manual. If they use a detuned version of the GTS hybrid, there's no way it will come as a manual as it's not possible with the hybrid system. If that happens, they'll probably create another T model that will come with a manual for the old schoolers like me. :)
Pure marketing gimmick. Changes to make it new but actually ways for them to cut cost. One change to tachometer and push start can save them hundreds of thousands. Cars are getting cheaper in quality. Designed, built and favored by Gen Zs.. 😴
The car is wack not sexy and the outside looks outdated this is old white republican car that love trump im sorry this car is overpriced and boring to look at pls get to the design center

As a 992.1 owner, I'm biased, but I think the 992.1 is a much more sophisticated looking design. The 992.1 is peak modern 911 IMO.
Very impactful review. It’s great to see all the side by side visual differences
Thanks Michael. 👊🏼
Copy that .. agreed.

great spot on the wheel offset, i was always wondering why the classic wheels on the .2 just didn't seem to have the same concave look as on the .1
I have bought a 992.2 and I´m really happy. Is a lot nicer.
Did you order it or was it just available to purchase? Did you pay MSRP?
@@mattsellers1925 Hello. I ‘ve just ordered. One new. What is MSRP?

All the cosmetic changes are simply different, not an improvement. I prefer having the turn signals in the bumper.
I agree. There is plenty of room going towards the center to make the intakes larger

Really? Is it a warning tone or does it actually limit the speed?
No speed nanny on my 2025. I’m in California.
I work at Porsche and I like both, however I just got my own 992.2 and I absolutely love it!!!
Awesome congrats 👍🏼

Also stop touching the piano black trim. You can sweet the scratch marks from it. :)
I have a 992.1 and had PPF done on those areas.
Great Review. But please invest in a mic
No thanks - I prefer the 992.1
sure, the same was with 991.2 vs 992.1…….
I like my new gauge cluster on my 992.2 I can actually see all the gauges.

Time will tell. Thanks for the input. 👊🏼
When will 992.2 Carrera S will be released? Thank you in advance!!
Haven’t heard yet. Should get another couple trim levels soon though. Hope it includes a manual.

Good video thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
Why are some 992.2 coming with yellow signal lights and other with clear? My shows clear on order. Will be her in about 5 weeks.
Clear side marker lights are an option. or I should say a tequipment option that you can purchase afterwards.
Amazing comparison
@@mikerusznak. Interesting. Amber is a US requirement but seeing the same. You want the clear ones - better looking
@mikerusznak can you please do a driving review vs 992.1 ??
Coming soon
@@mikerusznak looking forward to it
Beautiful changes
Lol no, that push button is disgusting. Cheap plastic looking like it's on a 2010 Kia lmao!
Whens the gts coming
Pushed back to Feb.
@@mikerusznak is this for the us only or around the worlf

The world keeps advancing, if you want old, buy a 1920s car.
Good points
992.2 better. no question
Mic is so bad.
For God's sake please invest in a proper mic lol great review otherwise
Thanks and thanks. 👍🏼
Disagree on review. 992.1 much better. Analog tach alone is deal maker.
Overpriced
People will only exchange money for an item or an experience if its value is worth more than the money is to them.
The car is wack not sexy and the outside looks outdated this is old white republican car that love trump im sorry this car is overpriced and boring to look at pls get to the design center
this is a sad attempt at rage baiting
