Test drive of Porsche 911 Turbo S (992 model)｜Differences from GT3 and handling
Release Date: 2021.02.14
My husband was recently given a test drive in a 911 (992) Turbo S by a friend of ours, and he wrote a report on it. Please take a look if you like.
Porsche 911 Turbo S (Type 992)
The flagship grade of the Porsche 911, the Turbo, has reigned at the pinnacle of the 911 lineup since the 930 model year, and is a grade that sets it apart from the normal grade. And this time, we had the opportunity to test drive theIt will be the latest 911, the 992 "Turbo S".

I've lived half of the last few days to see this article, lol.
Thanks for the test drive report.
In terms of appearance, there is a difference in the size of the wings between the GT series and the turbo, but the turbo, being 4WD, accelerates hard without any problem without concentrating downforce on the rear wheels, and therefore appears to have no lift at very high speeds. (Though the speed range where the downforce can be tested is not the same...)
I think the turbo may have quite a bit of change in cornering feel due to 4WD traction.
Even in RWD, tires are often hard to handle with more than 400 horsepower, but I thought that handling a machine with more than 400 horsepower in RR would be beyond the limits of tires in some areas. Depending on the road conditions, you could die lightly, no exaggeration...!
I would guess that the turbo is better than the GT3 in most areas, and in the first place, the current GT3 and GT2 seem to be beyond the realm of what even the most senior humans can handle at the earliest opportunity.
Porsche always states that "structure follows function", but I wonder if an anomalous electronically controlled 4WD like the 918 & 919 will be in the upcoming hybridized 911 Turbo?
The structure of the 918 & 919 is truly beautiful, as it allows front wheel traction only when necessary, without the need to install an extra drive structure.
For hybrid, on-demand 4WD, front-wheel motor + RRorMR is the way to go, so 911 should have a lot of room to grow in the future.
Also, in Japan, the second generation NSX would have had a similar format, but the power of the motor is too different...
And when you buy your next Panamera, you should have a very hard time deciding between 4WD or RWD.
I apologize for the length of this post, and I'm very sorry for the inconvenience!
Whatever it is, Porsche evolution, forever and ever! I am sure you will agree with me.

Thank you so much for the article on the 911 Turbo S. I'm so excited (and laughing)!
The turbo seems to be great, and I thought that the high price was worth it (although it is still too expensive! ^^^).
And thank you for all your enlightening comments!
For me, the bare-bones Carrera is the easiest to handle, or rather, it's still more than enough for me, and I'm still not quite ready to handle it.
The Turbo, GT3, GT2, etc., are really terrific cars.
As you say, Porsche has evolved tremendously.
I am sure that the next 992 GT3 will be a much higher performance car than I had imagined.
Thank you for your continued support!
I always enjoy reading this.
I like luxury and gentle turbo models.
I am very happy to see your review of the GT3 by your husband, who owns it.
I could understand the difference between the GT series and the turbo series, and my desire to have a turbo someday is getting stronger. I am now more and more excited about the turbo!
However, a concern with turbo models is poor resale.
On the used market, even in new used car condition, the price has dropped significantly against the price of a new car.
If the car has been driven even a few tens of thousands of kilometers, the rate of price decline seems to be even greater.
I would love to hear your husband's opinion on the used car market for turbo models.

Thank you for visiting my blog!
My husband also thinks, "Someday a turbo!" He seems to think that
He was very happy to be able to test drive the car this time.
>The concern with turbo models is poor resale.
As you say, the price drop for the turbo is amazing...
I always think that it is totally different from GTS, etc.
And her husband.
I think the price drop of the turbo is really great, so I'm also concerned about resale, as you said.
But again, I thought that people who buy turbos probably don't care much about resale.
If I were you, I wouldn't be afraid to choose a turbo with the paison green body color that I was allowed to test drive this time.
The owner wanted to drive a turbo that he was particular about.
I thought to myself, "If I'm going to drive a turbo, I need to drive it with a mindset that doesn't care about resale. I have to do my best too."
He said.
I'm sorry, I'm not sure if I answered your question........
Thank you for your continued support!
It's not the latest model, but I'm having trouble with a 991 Turbo S right now.
Today, my wife and I stopped by the PC and there was a Turbo S. What a great response from my wife, and I should be happy to be able to reach the turbo of my dreams...
My problem is that I have to let go of my 964.
In the meantime, I'm making excuses to wait and see and not sell the 964 right away because it will increase in value, but I will eventually have to let it go.
Turbo is an aspiration, but not necessarily a goal for me. My personal feeling is that air-cooling is a taste, and turbo may be like measles. I'm vaguely thinking that when I'm done, I'll be able to settle down in a car that's more like me.
Will I be able to find a similar car in a few years when I want to drive air-cooled again?
Can you find a car that your husband will compliment you on how beautiful your tires look? (Thanks for everything)
It is also troubling that the number of used 991 turbos will increase as 992 turbo deliveries proceed.
Of course, owning two cars would be ideal, but we will report back on the results.

My husband is always at Ashi Ari!
Thank you!
I'm torn...
My husband also said, "The price of a 964 has gone up so much recently that once you let it go, it may be hard to find one in good condition in the future.
We often say things like.
>It is also troubling that the number of used 991 turbos will increase as 992 turbo deliveries proceed.
Yes, it is troubling to see the increasingly attractive candidates...
I would be very happy to hear the results again.
Thank you for your continued support!
It is not the reply that is unnecessary. Publication.
I am sorry.
I've been so busy I'm completely out of my mind... sorry for the inconvenience.

Yes, sir!
I see your comment, sir! Thank you so much!

I have always enjoyed watching your work.
I have been reading this blog for about two years now and am very grateful for the reference I have received.
I have been living abroad for a long time, and about five years ago, when I saw that I was about to retire, I decided to try driving a Porsche and started with a Macan Turbo.
After two years of driving, I realized that high SUVs were not for me, and on the recommendation of a sales representative, I tried a new 911, a 9924S Cabriolet, and I was hooked.
I saw the arrival of the turbo there and switched this month to a 992 Turbo Cabrioㇾ without the age-appropriate S and marveled at how much of a difference it made.
From the perspective of a mere first-time enthusiast, I would like to share a few simple observations about the difference between the 4S and turbo of the 992 Cabriolet, in lieu of a thank you for all you have done so far.
This Turbo Cabriolet without S is said to be one of the first ones to arrive in Japan, and we have not seen it on the streets yet.
Only the main points, but in the current 992 turbo
1. The natural linearity of acceleration is strongly felt and conveys the richness of the car's build quality both sensually and physically.
The increased sense of ground contact transmitted when the 2.5-liter spoiler is fully opened is extremely reliable and provides good support even for a novice rider whose dynamic vision is deteriorating.
3.The comfort of the suspension at low speeds in town and the sense of sensing road surface information both seem to have increased, and this duality is interesting.
4.The precision of handling has been further improved, and in places such as Hakone, the driver feels as if he or she can draw the desired line simply by changing the force with which he or she holds the steering wheel.
In the 5.5 Macan, I was not able to experience the functions and advantages of 4WS and PDCC, but this time, the center of gravity shift felt around the waist on curves is very comfortable and I cannot find the right words to describe it.
(In the Macan, the drivetrain and chassis were full options, but the options for the 4S are mainly chrono, spoex, and spoex and 18-way seats, as the options this time are more standard equipment, PCCB, PDCC, and sport suspension are not added to either 4S or turbo)
To tell the truth, although I did not like the rear wing, the 1900mm rear appearance was one of the reasons I was attracted to the turbo this time. My wife also senses it subtly and seems to be somewhat wary of it.
This is the first time in my life that I have posted on the Internet, and I was a bit lost, but I thought I would post this in the hope that it might be of some help to the owner of this blog, who has provided me with very useful information.
We look forward to your future endeavors and blogging activities.
