@danoconnell247, it's a video showing "launch control" amongst other things. The nice thing about PDK and Launch Control in a Porsche is you can actually use it and not worry about destroying the transmission or voiding the warranty...

@MrHansiping, all of the test cars were equipped differently. However, I think most of the S cars did have the sports exhaust. This one definitely sounds like it's with the sports exhaust.

Seriously GT-R vs 911 arguments need to stop. Yes I'm a GT-R fanboy but how can you be a heterosexual and not like this 911? O.o

[rw5791]

why people like the old porsche so much? Maybe they like to oversteer their ass's over a cliff in the swiss alps?

I've never met a HOMOsexual who didn't like my 911, much less a hetero.

That sound.. I have always LOVED that beautiful exhaust note from Porsche's flat-6. I would drive all day, everyday just to hear that exhaust!! Can't wait until I can own my 911 Carrera

No need to keep money for luxury vehicles, houses and life style...

Terrorism and wars are coming back with crises due to unbalanced situation of world...

I've driven a new Carrera S with Sports Exhaust about a month ago. I was so amazed by its noise. It was amazing and menacing. Didn't expect a sound like that from a Carrera S. And press the exhaust button again it's absolutely comfortable for driving long range or staying friends with your neighbors

The engine sound is just sex and nice driving btw. You really showed what this car is built for.
