911 T owners club
#2086
I'm not sure how the 992 Carrera T could hope to compare to the 991. It will be bigger, heavier, and necessarily include a lot more tech (even further away from analog), all of which is patently antithetical to the character and essence of the Carrera T. And the 992 T will surely be produced in greater numbers. I'll go on the record now: History will look back on our 991 Carrera T's quite favorably, especially the enthusiast builds.

My Porsche dealership took back on trade a Carrera T they sold from a friend, car was absolutely babied, never tracked. Orig MSRP $126,990, they are asking $108,597. Mileage is 1648. Great car if someone looking. PM me if need details.

Any idea why the front air vanes were removed?

Man, I almost didn't want to post this since it's in German. It's so good though. Wish it had subtitles. But for those that speak German, here it is:

As with Henry's earlier review of our cars, I think this is spot on to the concept. Particularly the end sentiments ...
Either one gets the T, or they just don't. I'm glad I fall into the first batch.

Just watched that earlier myself. Good video.

I must admit, I don't think the world needs a Cayman T. And I'm disappointed to see Porsche watering down the T badge so quickly, though I guess it's not surprising given the watering down of the GT badge over the last few years. Between the 718 (racing) moniker and now the T (911) badge, it seems Porsche is desperate to make the Cayman relevant and desirable. Our Carrera T's have 911T heritage (and some would argue Clubsport heritage, as well), but this has nothing to do with the Cayman. And a lot of what makes our Carrera T's so great is that the T is a special edition -- or improved edition -- of an already outstanding and underrated base 991 Carrera. I don't consider the base 718 Cayman to be an underrated or particularly exciting or inspiring car (indeed, I would never consider one), so to transform it into a T version does nothing for me. I suppose I just don't get it.

Hopefully they can make the next gen 718 a 3.0 NA engine with 275 - 325HP... every review comments on how bad the 4 sounds.
