At least unlike another model, Porsche more than delivered with their listed 181mph top track speed for the Carrera T. This guy just casually did 187mph while having a relaxed conversation with the camera! He makes no mention on whether it was tuned, but maybe it is really stock? Impressive run to top speed nonetheless. We all know stock T really aren’t just ~380hp anyway..

187mph is 301kmph. There's a video of a T floating around reaching either 303 or 308 kmph.
Also, APR and Flat6 Motorsports have dyno'd the stock T/base at ~400hp.

That's what you took from my post? That's wild.

I own many cars. I'm not adding a car I don't love. Many boxes must be checked. Aesthetics is one. It's my money (and my garage), so I get to choose the criteria.

Yeah, there’s a disconnect for sure. I find it funny though. People will choose NOT to buy a car because of the way it looks (…like a G80/82 M car, for example)….despite it being a solid, capable performance car, but will turn around and sling indictments for buying a car because of how it looks.

Hey all. Difficult to find time. Markets picking up and going to be a busy year…fo sho. Can’t believe this February weather in New York. ☀️

Catching up…few comments…
- Spent $1,500 to PPF front bumper, hood, fenders and around door handles. My $ estimate for point of diminishing returns. @Mike818 If u really want, I’ll get one of my Ivy League car freak analysts to do some detailed modeling lol.
- Standard design works nicely on black because so much black trim up front on 992. If I got any other color, I’d probably get sports design. However, said this repeatedly in our early days here, both designs look gr8 in different ways. As long as we all get that wide booty!
- @Devon Racer - That’s a very special Shelby u have. Just FYI, my bro named his daughter Shelby when he had her and was working at Ford, ha.
- ​​@dassArse - good to c u ain’t dead yet bro…

Pic from my drive this AM.


It fits! My Dogtown Bigfoot…it’s a big board 😄

Not only that. I am even more enthusiastic after so many miles! The car is just insanely good and I really have no idea how this can be beat. It’s just so good at so many things. To me it’s just the perfect car with the perfect power. Probably only a GT product after this again. But man the T is just a great machine giving fun all the way.

See my picture below. And yes just stock. Driven break in period to perfection.

That was me remember? Just a photo. But that’s what you get when you run the car in properly

I went through the 30.000km last week. Had it all prepared since 29.000km to make something special. I even made a remark towards @Pivot his picture. I wanted to make it 992.1 km and then 29.992 below total and then driving 99km/h in second gear giving another 99 2. Even put it in my agenda when I had only 20km left to go drive specifically for this task.

992.1
29992
99 2

And then still managed to f### it up and completely forgot about it when driving this and just having fun and saw I already passed 30.000 so not even a picture of that lol.

Can blame the car but what an idiot

I'll be daily driving my 911 T when it arrives so I suspect I'll be updating this thread. On my 19 Carrera T I put on 20k in a year and literally used it for everything.
