18-way seats are for the old people buying a 911. It’s not an enthusiast spec. It’s a very heavy option with all the added motors and mechanisms. If you want to spec a GTS right, go with the 4-way sport seats plus or even better, the full bucket seats with rear seat delete. Also, what’s with the Spyder RS wheels? This is a GTS and should be configured with the Turbo S centerlocks. I like those PCCBs though.
Love my '23 4 GTS. Went with a little more subtle Aventurine Green Metallic. Debating getting a Turbo S but honestly the GTS is probably more than enough performance for public roads.
Great review! The acceleration of this model with a PDK is faster than most "super cars." But it is a car you can daily drive. I prefer the Carrera S for a daily driver because of the ride quality. But I am not as hard core as most drivers looking at this model.
I find your comments on the thrust similarities (and differences) with a Turbo/S interesting. But you accelerated several times on straight stretches of road, which in my opinion is of limited interest, in as much as a 911 reveals its DNA on mixed roads (twisties in particular). If you are just interested in drag race capabilities, then the Turbo S and the 991 GT2 RS are unmatchable in the 911 range.😎
I'm sure it is about your mic or not but the engine sound isn't as good as I expected. I'm considering 992 GTS and 718 GTS 4.0. I still prefer the engine sounds from 718 GTS 4.0 - flat 6 NA engine sounds far more better.
I owned a ‘23 C8 Z51. FAF car. But I sold it and just ordered a ‘24 911 GTS Coupe with the seven speed manual. Should be more engaging to drive. Report back when it arrives
