Finally a man who knows how to drive a 911 turbo, so many reviews and testers simply do not drive it to its full potential, it is a different car to the other mid engined cars and should be treated as such, just goes to show, when you know how to use it, the 911 turbo is untouchable.

I'm a 997.2 Turbo S owner and i can personally tell you these cars are fast as hell every where. No need for a track, no need for reving to 9000 rpm and no need to outfit it in any special fashion. It is very well adapted in the city and on the highway plus gets great gas mileage for a Super Car. I think its "the best 911 at being the best all the time. "

As a daily driver of the turbo, I can say this thing is absolutely the best super sport car I enjoy driving. I've driven it in very wet streets, rough roads, traffic and always gives me what I'd expect from it without a single issue. Hands down, and hey you want to race its always ready and wont let you down regardless of the other car or driver.

I love how you summarized the car so well, and then, when you ran the fast lap, you just--were silent--and let the car do all the talking.  Outstanding review of an outstanding car.

If I could choose any car, and I wasn't ever allowed to sell it, I'd take this one.

I love Ferraris (the cars) but Ferrari (the company) could definitely learn something from Porsche... Total transparency: no special software tweaks for a specific lap, no special tires, no special anything. Just a bog standard Turbo S and the confidence it will beat anything this side of a million pounds. Brilliant.

"This Turbo S have no technical support, no extra tires to throw at it, and not a single engineer's laptop went anywhere near it."

HAHA! Sounds like a jab at Woking and Maranello. Stuttgart has this hands-down!

Wow. Porsche is an engineering FU to everyone it competes with. I love it.

[gareththwaite]

I can only see one problem with owning a turbo hold of your driving license :)

[rootsmanuva]

Damn evo. Damn. Damn. Damn. Best reviews in existence. Quality Driver/Journalist, videography and editing. Love it.

[darrenloke]

The 991 Turbo S is just epic. Definitely the car of our time. The only supercar you can have now that is not compromising anything.

[vivalaphill]

That moment when the german Gran Touring car beats the sh*t out of the super track focused, stripped dwon  italian supercar.

[EvanderSmart]

Anyone who talks smack about a Turbo S has never driven a Turbo S

[amygal]

6.2 to 100 MPH ..pretty much nose to nose with a MacLaren F1

Incredible!

[mrcompatable]

Wow! Was not expecting that to be honest. Great car. Plus you could drive it to work everyday in the rain and be perfectly happy :)

[surajjohn]

0-60 ins 2.6 secs ?! the turbo never gets the credit it deserves. The GT3 gets all the credit. the thing is if any of us one day could afford to get this, most of us would be on the road most of the time. This is a great gt car and I love it !! Now let the gtr fanboys fight begin !!!

[James-xrix]

I come back to this video regularly. This car on this day and with Jethro at the wheel- it all aligned. So, so, quick

[sanu]

I didn't expect that. What a car. Phenomenal review as always.

[Goontrader]

This is also hands down the best daily driver from that list....What a car!

[brocky]

Porsche is just remarkable. They're owning the racing circuit in LMP1, GTLM, and GTE Pro. Their pre-race preparation is supremely organized and readied second to none. It's just remarkable how perfect they are from top to bottom. No wonder the 911 Turbo's are nearly perfect. So impressive.
