What’s your issue with the Aerokit? The Carrera S is faster than the GT3 and handles supremely well. It deserves to look awesome and it does with that amazing Aerokit.
Plus it gets rid of the weird standard rear spoiler and the big grinning open mouth front.

[truejayoh]

That spoiler though... the looks, sport exhaust. Exact car I want. Can you pls list all the options in that car?

Aero kit is awful. Didn't even know that was an option. Looks completely out of place and either way the wing design is just not that great looking.. Very ricer.

The manual makes the 992 so much more engaging and fun. Love that it exists. Sad the C8 got did of the manual. 992 would be my choice for that reason alone. I would get a Cayman GTS 4.0 with a manual and Sharkwerks gearing if that was an option but its the same price of a 911 after that

Would never fit the sports design and body kit smh. ruins the stunning Carrera shape

The 992 carrera s is amazing so far, personally, I’m waiting on the gts!

Sure going to enjoy the manual in stop and go traffic for an hour and a half in each direction to and from Toronto. Great majority of sports car buyers are not car enthusiasts.

It is amazing that those rare manual at Porsche are getting so good while the entire industry turns to an automatic world. It’s a great privilege to owe one of this.

Perfekt allein ist gut genug: Handschaltung & frei saugender Motor.

Great review! Spot on about the manual being more engaging. I drove this car for 2 hours yesterday and couldn't stop smiling: it really makes one feel alive!😁

Sunroof delete is a must. If you need to see the sun get a cab or a targa. The Aerokit always seems a bit over the top at new build but in the second hand market the kit always brings more.

[theeballer]

The Aerokit package looks so good with this spec. Metallic White, Black Roof, Black Wheels, Red Calipers :D

[arthurkurtzhall]

Do you really drive that far forward? I'd be embarrassed. . . .and I wouldn't own a 911 without a sunroof!

[giveyouashot]

Your review kicks ass! I am most definitely opting with the MT and delete aero kit. I heard it is airy to have the sunroof but I prefer with out. Give the car a more cleaner look.
