  • 0:49 min - What the hell are you doing on the opposite side of the road!? Imagine someone coming around fast Oo

  • Looked fun

  • That

  • Die Strasse ist bei 74246 Eberstadt Germany! Ich wohne da! :)

  • :54 variocam plus just kicked in yo!

  • 2011 porsche recorded in may 2010

  • If it's not to intrusive would you mind shedding some light on the annual running costs for the Turbo S?

  • i like the interior and the wheel!!!!

  • You almost wreck the thing near the beginning!! Haha what happened?!

  • @FireFlamesrocks I wouldn't say that I "almost wrecked"...but thats what happens when trying to find the limit on these cars. I find it safer to test this cars under wet conditions because we can find the limit at much lower speeds than in dry condictions. The AWD system in this car is great! Please notice that the traction control system was turned off...so, if anybody out there interested in this vehicle, keep in mind this would not happend with the traction control ON. ;)

  • @TerraNetworks I'd say just good car control. Nice car!

  • @TerraNetworks I would say it's called FUN :)

  • @FireFlamesrocks just a classic oversteer on wet ground...

  • Beatiful car interior seems to be well kept for the mileage. enjoy

  • @Ultimatecarcare Are you spamming? This vid was posted in may of 2010 and they are driving a 2011 turbo s. Mileage is gonna be low on a pre production car, of course the interior is well kept. It's brand new.

  • camera is too high

  • shame its not a stick shift. shifting without paddles seems more fun

  • @thatboytrent I have to give it up for the PDK....very effective double clutch and super smart transmissions (psychic style!). I love that transmission; it does a waaaaay better job than any mortal with a manual.

  • @TerraNetworks

    true true - some will never learn that the computers are faster than we humans are ;)

  • @TerraNetworks I'd think it would be great to focus on your braking & steering into corners while the transmission controls gear shifts. The speed of those shifts and rev-matching is spot-on. Thanks for posting the video.

  • I like...2012 porsche looks awesome!

  • Was this the automac mode or paddle shift?

  • @marky2112 It was on Sport Plus mode....no traction control, paddle shift, etc.

  • is that your car? it's unbelievable.

  • @cubs563 Not mine. This was one of the first units that came out of the assembly line. Not sure if it was a pre-production, but Porsche let me drive it for a day in Germany. :)

  • Comment removed

  • I wish videos could actually communicate the speed. Sometimes it looks so slow when he's moving pretty damn quick.

  • @TerraNetworks Zach Braff or "J.D.".

  • @onlypedro LOL..agree! But give me a break...it was my first and only time around those roads! (and first time driving the car too!)

  • Wow oversteered 0:55!!

  • Porsche are so down to earth, not in your face,,,,,,,, and that the beauty ;)

  • Can you believe they actually posted this video with a giant review mirror is in the center of the screen? Why put the camera that high??

  • @UltraHarley100 That was the only position I could place it! My camera mount is kinda big! I didn't place it outside cause of the wind noise

  • got the classic red interrior, nice!

  • Looks like the guy from scrubs lol

  • @zZrEtRiBuTiOnZz Which one??

  • amazing car. just bought one in gaurds red, i wish i had roads like that around my house in georgia to drive it on.

  • @The70srockfan You have great roads in Georgia! I've been there before for drive events!

  • @TerraNetworks the road quality is great just the roads around my house at least are all straight and have no scenery.

  • I own an M3 with a gintani S/C and stage 3 tuning , little boy.

  • I realise they are two seperate classes of vehicle but an m3 with a gintani supercharger and stage 3 kit would eat this bitch for breakfast

  • @GodlessMartyr666 You do realize that 911 with similar mods would eat that modded M3?

  • @derbigpr500 thats why I didn't say a GT3... but a standard S turbo, obviously gets its nuts kicked in by the M3

  • @GodlessMartyr666 Ok...you're just wrong. No 911 gets its nuts kicked in by M3. NORMAL 911 turbo is much faster than M3.

  • @derbigpr500 nah, I am comparing a gintani supercharged M3 with stage 3 kit to a 911 turbo S... I don't care what your opinion is, you obviously don't even know shit when you can't properly comprehend semantics without re-arranging the entire comment to suit your biased and jaded views... suck a tail pipe

  • @GodlessMartyr666 Grow some balls, get a driving licence, spend 30 years flipping burgers in mcdonalds, and then when you earn money to buy a 30 year old car, come back and we can talk about cars. Until then, go play PS3. You clearly get all your "car info" from games.

  • @derbigpr500 you try to call me immature by leaving the most immature comment, you will never own a porsche or an M3.

  • don't get me wrong though, I obviously cannot deny the modern vehicles with launch control are noticably faster off the line... technology these days is impressive. The future will be magnificent.

  • You sir are driving on the wrong side of the car............and the road.

  • Dear Santa...

    

  • amazing car, but buddy takes the corners like he is driving a corolla.

  • Too bad the camera couldn't have been lower than the rear view mirror for a better view of the road. In spite of that, it must have been a read ride. For those of us that cannot afford one yet, I hope you enjoy it to the max.

  • oh no not an automatic again, what's wrong with you people? That aside it's really a brilliant car especially on the track, not bad for a car with the engine in the back :)

  • this is a great car. its one of the fastest porsches... but even though the gt3 is slower, they seem like so much more fun. the gt3 is so much louder inside the cockpit and out. it has a more race car like feel. i feel like the turbo is lacking the adrenaline fun that we all love. like a mercedes amg, yeah they're extremely fast, but going high speeds you can almost yawn cause it feels like nothing. i prefer a car where you can feel every little thing. but i guess its just personal reference.

  • he almost spun out between 0:40 and 0:50

  • @BigBadDefense no he didn't :L:L:L:L:L

  • Can someone tell me why the Turbo S is way faster than the Turbo? Only 30 hp difference.

  • @aqinthe You just answered your own question

  • @aqinthe your mom.

  • This is a very classy sports car!!

  • Don't call this pussy driving. He is going speeds of 100-140kM/h on wet mountain roads with very poor sight. I wouldn't go more than 80, especially not in those corners... You have to have driven on these kinds of roads to know what he does is quite dangerous. This isn't America where roads are made out of straight lines with 90 degree corners and a traffic light.

  • @MrCharming123 Where the fuck have you been in America? Where I am almost all of the roads have curves and a number are a lot like this road.

  • @Musicvidsetc Michigan, Ohio, Texas, Indiana, Illinois.

  • @MrCharming123 Most of those places are almost entirely flat, plains states, especially Ohio, Texas and Indiana. Plus, it's depends whether you're in the city or the suburbs/country. Where I am there are roads just like the one in the video and my area certainly isn't the only place you find those kind of roads.

  • @MrCharming123 hahah so true.

    for all this stupid americans calling little powerslide 'almost wrecking a car', americans calling pretty nice driving on a very challenging road 'pussy driving' - instead of talking continous shit under every car video on youtube, turn your fucking ps3 off, go get a car with stick (yea, i know, sounds nuts!), move to europe, drive in the alps. maybe then you'll realize what these '4-wheel things' are all about.

  • @kujon69 I am an American and I LOVE Porsche. Your childish junior high language and your name calling makes you look uneducated and immature, much like those calling a slight "slip" nearly wrecking the car.

  • Looks great!

  • Wow! Ballsy driving!. power-sliding a 2011 Porsche on a wet road.

  • To those who only drive fast cars on xbox etc, imagine if your last crash had been real. The cost, the pain. Maybe your last breath, with no replay! This car is so well designed that a normal driver can safely handle 530bhp on a wet winding road.

  • and yeah.. you were clocking some serious speeds on what is a wet, 2 lane road.. don't listen to retards here who call you a pussy for going slow.. we all can tell they are the ones who don't have a driving license..

  • nice video, sexy car

  • Why do they have the white markers on the side of the road? Or is this a track?

  • @flanksteak2 Europe roads have that kind of marking.

  • @flanksteak2

    You will find these kind of black and white markers on every often used country road in whole germany. They have a rectangular white reflector on the front (in germany you drive on the right side of the road) and have 2 circular white reflectors on its back. So when you drive at night (the countryside at night is very dark) or while the weather is dark and rainy on such a country road you can better see and follow the road.

  • dream..car!

    

  • THANK YOU for not putting shitty music over this video--LOVE the sound of the engine.

  • Ever since I played Need For Speed 5 Porsche Unleashed, I've always loved the Porsche sound........!

  • Beautiful carrera red interior. Does the relection of the dash on the windshield bother you. Do you wear polarized sunglasses while driving ?

  • You taht say the vid is boring should try driving a very powerfull car with the engine all the way back on rainy roads. Youtube twats.

  • that interior is the fucking bomb

  • those roads remind me of costa rica

  • hi, can you let me know you fixed the cam? i bought a GoPro for my 997TT cab, but dont know yet where to fix it well. thanks for your answer!

  • you are driving 113 when the speed limit is 70! haha.

  • Hello, nice video, i've always wondered how a turbo drives on a normal road. Nice you didn't put any music in the video, so we can hear the sound of that engine. Just one question: Can you her the blow-off sound when you lift the throttle? :)

  • @Jury1111111111 Yes you can! Not too much...but you definitly can hear it once in a while

  • Just got mine and its crazy fast.

  • boring as shit....you should leave that car to REAL drivers.

  • OMG that was the fastest driving of a Turbo S ever. 

  • He was up to 180+kmh - 110mph at the 2 minute mark , not bad for a "Girly Man" on a wet 2 lane road....The Governor could do better...:)

  • Nice drift 0:53 

  • damn put the bitch sideways around those corners

  • He chickened out the second he came up on the highway.Pussy!

  • 0:53-0:56 so where did you get your racing license?

  • @AntDX316 Skip Barber!! :)

  • @TerraNetworks seemed like years when I asked this lol

  • amazing video, amazing camera position, thanks.

  • just make a video of you looking in a mirror holding your dads bank account,

  • @arizonaboy77 LOL

  • @arizonaboy77 LOL...Porsche's car..not my Dad's. I hope you don't look in the mirror while you drive :s...I can assure you I was looking at the road!

  • sucks

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • wtf automatic.....

  • perfect, thank you..

  • BEST Turbo vid on the web.

    Best sounds of real driving.

    A++

  • Even though I had to turn my speakers to max; the gear change sounds nearly as fast as the 458's.

  • My favorite car for sure but given the price ill stick to my 2007 z06.

  • BOOOORING :))

  • porsche is the best !!!!!

  • Pretty awesome, although the red interior seems to be the common thread (PUN!) in the used section of 911's.

  • 0:52 nice

  • wow you did 190 kph on a country road that's insane! the camera makes it look not as fast as it actually is, i'm sure.

  • @TerraNetworks hey man, I thought it was a great video. Keep posting videos though, bc I'm gonna be buying one soon and would like to see more. Thx.

  • @TerraNetworks BOOOO!! i agree w/ suprattkk. very boring.

  • @suprattkk He is driving a 170 000 € worth car on wet weather. Electronics is off, and the car has 530 hp. You would have balls to drive it faster??

  • @suprattkk Way to be a dick. lol...

  • @suprattkk maybe hes trtying not to crash it and drive it like a normal human being? just watch the video and if you dont like it watch an other djeez !

  • @suprattkk Enjoy the drive or dont watch it. Stupid.

  • @suprattkk That's because unless you're actually in it it doesn't seem fast.. I nearly passed out when I rode as a passenger in a launch controlled 0-100 time attack in one of these things, the PDK is so fast.. I just wasn't use to or couldn't even imagine acceleration like that!

  • @suprattkk lol so true i drive faster than that in my z4 m coupe and im 17

  • @LInebacker998 ... maybe you do so on your xbox, when hitting a tree means that you just start over... and btw, your comment shows that you are not even mature enough to be sitting on the co-driver's seat... so I am actually surprised you that you ALREADY are 17.

  • @CheGuevarsi Youre so right. I play xbox and I dont have a z4 m coupe. Oh wait, I do. I can send you a picture. I'm pretty sure I'm mature enough to be sitting in the co-driver's seat considering I've been in cars that are faster than the 911 Turbo S.

  • I just like that in the first 2 minutes there is a hole in the railing around every corner where someone went too fast around a corner

  • shite shite shite

  • The 911 Turbo S is my ultimate. If i could only own ONE car to drive every day...This is it. Understated, practical (ish!), supercar performance. Just brilliant.

  • il take a GT3 (although dont get me wrong this is still great)

  • I bet my ass this car is faster than the F458. Not to mention if the F458 catches fire during half way of the race. LOL...

  • @halim181276 I don't know about faster but it's definitely quicker. Probably 2.7-2.8 0-60!!

  • @halim181276 Porsche anyday, at least the heat shield doesnt overheat and catch fire.

  • @halim181276 its not faster but its not that much slower, the 458 could pull about 1-2 car lengths depending on the driver of each car.

  • @halim181276

    This IS faster than Italia . There is a video by Drag Times somewhere around here in which the Turbo 'smokes' the crap out of the Ferrari.

  • @sohaibthephilosopher It cant really smoke the crap out of a 458. Thats retarded to say, since they're both about similar on straight and in the corners. Ferrari is probably more fun to drive, and IS faster, but Porsche is more usable because of 4WD. Anyone could drive Porsche almost to the limit, while 458 takes some serious skill to drive it on the limit...like all ferraris.

  • @sohaibthephilosopher Besides, how can 911 smoke the crap out of 458 if 458 is faster around any where both cars were tested, and quite a lot faster. The only thing where 911 beats 458 in terms of performance is 0-100 because of 4WD grip and launch control. Any other acceleration test, top speed, or lap times, 458 is faster. Besides, most test drivers and reviewers said that 458 is currently by far the best sports car in the world.

  • @derbigpr500 Watch this :

    /watch?v=xSHL5_yIvII

    Only in top speed 458 is better . I also think that a lot people are biased towards 458 (Car reviewers /test drivers). The 458 is a ferrari , it has to be good ; but for half the price of 458 , Turbo S is not bad at all .

  • @sohaibthephilosopher Nobody's biased towards ferrari. Its just how it is. Ferraris feel special. They're more fun than Porsche. By the way, who the hell give a damn about drag racing? I never understood those who judge a car by straight line speed. Do you know how TINY the difference in that drag race was? The Porsche only won because of 4WD, and Ferrari had a very bad launch. Watch any proper car review (fifth gear, evo magazine, top gear) and they all say 458 is THE sports car.

  • @derbigpr500

    About being biased it was my opinion , its OK if you disagree. About the fun part ; I've never driven Ferrari ; also keep in view the difference in price. Drag racing ? Remember it was 1 mile drag . Winner would have better traction + acceleration .And for Gods sake , the difference was NOT tiny ! :) All these car reviewers you've mentioned are mere entertainers IMO. With the exception of Evo magazine ; to me the opinions of the other two might not be fully credible .

  • @sohaibthephilosopher By the way, if you think people are biased towards 458....then watch these 2 videos, from 2 best car reviewers in the world today, who are actually proper ex-racing drivers, and know what they're talking about. When a british guy admits that italian car is better than brand new british car, then you know it REALLY is better, since british are usually extremely biased towards their cars.

  • @derbigpr500

    The car in question is Porsche 997 Turbo S ONLY !

  • nice interior.

  • Nasty zigzag road! But really nice sounding car indeed, and beautiful interior

  • guys go streetfire net and search for 997.2 PDK Turbo S 0-210kph

    look at his figures , i was shocked

  • thanks for not putting a song in the audio...god i want one of these

  • is this the fastest accelerating production porsche ever?

  • @JimmyChannel1 - I would think so. Porsche says 0 to 100kmph in 3.3s. They are known to be modest about performance figures. The normal 2010 Turbo version has been clocked at 2.9~3.2s so i am guessing this should do it in about 3s.

  • @GeorgeOfDubai thanks for the reply, so does that mean the turbo s has a faster 0-60 time than the gt2? i would be quite shocked if so.

  • @JimmyChannel1 - The Turbo S is faster than the GT2 (530bhp) and even the all new GT2 RS (620bhp) in the 0 to 60 tests. The 4 wheel drive allow for added traction off the line. But in every other accel. test say 0 to 200kmph and 100 to 200kmph the GT2s are faster. Also since the GT2s are purposefully built track cars they clock faster lap times on tracks such as the Nurburgring. Timings are as follows Turbo (7min 39s), Turbo S (???), GT2 (7min 32s) and the mighty GT2 RS (7min 18s).

  • @GeorgeOfDubai thank you

  • @GeorgeOfDubai

    long story short if you want a good street car get a 911 turbo s

  • @GeorgeOfDubai GT2 rs faster than a carrera GT on nurburgring, Such is progress. Turbo S is definitiely more of a daily driving porsche, one for 4 seasons. I'd still hold out for the new 998 model, since all of these cars are usually made just to sell what's left of the current design. But knowing porsche, the base and S models will probably only be available in 998, and turbo will still be 997 for a while.

  • @GeorgeOfDubai Only thing is GT2 is remarkably difficult to drive fast. This would be much easier... a lot more accessible performance... depends on what you want though

  • @GeorgeOfDubai i would love Porsche to drop the gt2 rs motor in the turbo. Also, if they dont already have it, to add tourqe vectoring diffs. It would be absolutely wild. Some weight reduction too. Would be a crazy car. :)

  • @GeorgeOfDubai i feel like you just copied and pasted that off of a car article

  • @jordan6infrared - Thanks! I'd take that as a compliment. I do a lot of reading and I am an amateur auto journalist myself.

  • @GeorgeOfDubai thats great man i love cars too

  • @GeorgeOfDubai you will never make it to me a true journalist. nobody wants someone to simply read them boring numbers. numbers are only interesting to a select few like you and i that love and are obsessed with cars, not the general public.

  • @GeorgeOfDubai Around such a huge track at the nordschliefe, 7 seconds isn't that much. I'd say that if you stripped out a turbo and added some boost it'd be just as quick around the track whilst having far better performance off the line. :) Anyway, in terms of real world performance the 0-60 times are probably more noticeable.

  • @GeorgeOfDubai AWD has noticable lag off the line, yes traction is better but there is a slight ( less than .5 of a second on a fine german sport like this ) lag when you floor it off the line. It's not just the turbo either, as I have experienced such lag on an audi a4 and a mercedes benz e500 4matic as well

  • @GodlessMartyr666 - AWD bogging down at the start lines are a thing of the past. Launch Control has eliminated that bit.

  • @GeorgeOfDubai I agree but for the most part no matter what happens the transmission still has to power two drive axles instead of a single one... While modern supercars can achieve ridiculous 0-60 times even with AWD , and given that using launch control provides optimum conditions for launch in the desired vehicle, you can understand that all modern super cars are fast off the line, to begin with. The engines produce more horses, but obviously instant torque eliminates the effect of physics...

  • @GeorgeOfDubai Motortrend tested the turbo with manual gear box and they had the fastest 0-60 time of any manual geared car ever... 3.0s. I would guess the PDK would be 2.8s and the turbo S 2.6-2.7s.

  • @GeorgeOfDubai just got car and driver mag and they tested Porsche turbo s 0-60 in 2.8 seconds thats insane 0 -100 in 6.4 thats faster as hell wow

  • 70 ist angeschrieben, die Herren! Wo seid ihr den da schön rumgefahren im Schwabenland :p

  • Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the EVERYDAY supercar!

  • Wonderful automobile! Wet roads...no problem! AWD for the win.
