Only 6lbs less than an S but the T loses rear seat, power adjustable seats, smaller brakes(?) and has thinner glass.

It's neither an apples to apples comparison nor a review. It's half baked content for clicks.

A 710 mile 75mph range... that is insane. That is great, I hate to have to go to the gas station and fill up, unless I want to stop.

GTS gets me 34-35 mpg consistently at 75-80 mph in 7th. Phenomenal cars.

I have nearly 12K on my T and have driven it a number of times on long road trips. I don't ever experience a "drone" while driving, I just took a 140 mile cruise today over all manner of roads/highways and don't understand this comment. The "Review" isn't a review at all as someone else pointed out, weak sauce.

More a numbers gathering exercise than descriptive road test. Extremely similar in pretty much every way when compared to the same magazine's test of the 991.2 version.

True, but it doesn’t stop the sheep from lapping it up.

I noticed the fine print. It says this is an older article updated with performance numbers. This isn't a full review.

@malba2366 agreed. IMO the T has become too expensive for what it is. Admittedly, I’ve never been a fan of it in the first place.

Hi Guys ...... this YouTube video a while back was the ONE that convinced me to get a T .... pick it up in a few weeks ( and got 1% off of MSPR from Ottawa Canada dealer ) .... I have liked Savagegeese video's in the past ...
