I have the big 237 miles on the T now, seeing up to 5k revs. I just came back from a drive. I am amazed at the shift quality of the 7 speed. If you compare this to what the manual version of this gearbox felt like in 2014 it's remarkable. In fact, to me it now feels equal or better than the 6 speed. I only say better because some of those 6 speed GT3 gearboxes have tremendous movement of the shifter when applying throttle. It's been a while but I think it was fourth gear in the one I had made the thing move around like crazy. So much so you could see it out of the corner of your eye. I never liked that. This seven speed doesn't move at all. It feels perfect.

They have also tuned the exhaust really well. Can anyone confirm if the 992.1 has equal length headers? It sounds like it. I have not looked under the car. It"s quite a GT3 tone in the cabin. Also remarkable to me given how the similar engine previous generation sounded stock. Partly due to the sink header design I'm sure.

I have yet to drop some air in the tires, they came 37/45 and it's clearly too high. The setup feels really nice all around. It's amazing how they have refined it from the previous gen, which was also a great car. I don't know how they manage to pull off the stuff they pull off. Almost never misstepping. It's a special car company.

No, not equal length but seemingly optimized. According to @M Engineering no aftermarket headers have been able to make more power and most of them lose compared to OEM. As far as sound... if you think it has a GT3 tone now, wait til you hit 6,500...

Oooof what color is this??

Saw these yesterday am at C&C, that green is soooo good, thank goodness all three are PDK or I'd have a dilemma or buyers regret on my hands.

So I just got my T with PDK - trying to find out if it was ever confirmed whether the PDK model has eLSD and PTV or does it have the normal one as the base.

What are those acronyms? eLSD and PTV?
I also have T coming with PDK as well.

porshanut

T has PTV, not available on the base, regardless of transmission.

Mr.Bourne

What are those PTS colors? unterberg green? Shark blue?

ELSD: electronic limited slip differential
PTV: Porsche torque vectoring

sk911

T 's come with PTV+ and eLSD for PDK
Standard PTV and mechanical LSD for manual...none of these T standard features are available in a .1 or .2 base.

Awesome! Thanks for confirming - one more followup to that, what’s the best way to get a feel of either of those systems at work when driving? Based on the description it’s something that helps with speed in and out of corners but is there a way to feel or see it working?

eLSD: electronic limited slip differential
PTV: Porsche Torque vectoring (I remeber this used to be a paid add on in previous generations)

Congrats! Welcome to the club, I’m supposed to take delivery today for mine (after final detailing and stuff).

There is also a NATO Olive (89) PTS T with carbon buckets. I bought it halfway across the country last week, and drove it 2k miles home, and it is completely covered in bugs until I wash it tomorrow, so no pictures yet.

Thanks and congrats to you as well!!
take some video of the delivery ☺️

My car just showed up in Baltimore at the port.
Hopefully I’ll have my car next week!!

Maybe we should have our own sub-forum? Would be easier to separate out different threads and not run into the thread limit?
