2023 Porsche 911 Carrera T
« on: October 19, 2022, 12:46:03 pm »
No surprises here, really. This is a base 992 Carrera with some standard performance goodies, unique aesthetics, and a standard manual transmission that is otherwise not available in the base 992. No rear seats either but they can be added back in as a no-cost option. Thinner glass and a smaller battery result in a 100 lb weight reduction over a base PDK model. PTV, PASM, and the sport exhaust are all standard. See the configurator here.

I actually think it's a pretty fantastic addition.  Not able to get a manual in the base model would automatically cross it off my list.  So for me, I think I'd go with this over a basic Carrera S.

I love it when a plan comes together.

You'd save some bucks too, which is nice.

This really is the perfect "entry level" 911.

It would be nice to see someone do a thorough comparison with the GTS, similarly equipped.

Wish you could get the race seats - which currently you can only option on the GTS.

They're not on the configurator, but they're supposedly available.
