Default For the haters... (T content inside...)


"But please don't be put off. Since when was it a crime to give customers exactly what they want?"

Not sure why TG is just putting this out on YouTube, but some good stuff inside. No surprises on the final call IMO...

Haters? Are rennlist posts living inside your head?

With all due respect, it sounds like you need justification for your purchase and it sounds like you lack confidence in yourself by making a post like this.

To each his own. Enjoy your car. Take care of yourself.

Wow is this really necessary? Nothing positive here and IMO should be removed.

The Carrera T is my favorite variant of the current line up.

They just pub'd it on YouTube today. Did you see it on broadcast? Glad to see the cars getting the love they deserve...

Yes, but a thread with a title like that sure won't stir the pot right?

They're all good cars with their respective pros and cons.

There are no T haters on this 991 forum. A T is a 991. 991 is why we are here. We all do have individual preferences, which is why Porsche offers so many 991 models in the Configurator with so many different options. But that doesn't mean we hate another 911 model

I just watched the video. It was a nice comparison of two very nice cars. I'd pick the GT3 Touring over the T, but I don't hate the T. I'd pick a Turbo S Cabriolet over either of them, which is exactly what I did. Does that make me a hater?

I just don't understand the need for "For the haters" part...

I hate when people use the word haters...totally insecure and not appropriate. And to think there are several threads about people defending their Ts.

FWIW...
I've had 2 991.1 GT3's, a 991.1 RS, A 991.1 c2s, a 991.2 c2 cab, a 991.2 gt3 manual, a 991 GT2RS, and a 2018 carrera T manual with rear steer.

I have driven every one of them hard in the mountains and / or on the track.

If I could pick one car to keep forever, the Carrera T is the one. It's the closest I've come to all around automotive perfection. Easy and fun around town, an absolute blast in the mountains. The base brakes are weak for track work. The PCCB (which my car doesn't have) might be worth it with the weight reduction and brake improvements.

Yes, but making a judgmental call on another users confidence level regardless if they are defending their recent purchase is really not necessary nor productive in this forum.
