The Porsche 911 S/T is possibly the best driver's car of the modern era; it's a car that many, many automotive journalists are calling "best ever." But it's a full $100k (even more with markups) more than the GT3 Touring, to which it's closely related. Can you feel the difference between the two and does that justify the price point? Matt goes back to back in the new S/T and GT3 Touring to find out!

@z06van21 4 месяца назад

Your explanation of trade-off with stiffness/sharpness VS vertical damping is spot on. I have a 718 GT4 with MCS 2-way remotes and in playing with the compression & rebound settings, you can feel that trade off in one direction or the other. So, for those who want the ST's suppleness but can't get or afford an ST, do not fret. Get yourself what ever version you want and swap out the suspension for 2 or 3 way MCS or KW set-up and you can have the best of both worlds. I switch mine up depending on what I plan on doing with the car and even though it is a manual process, it takes a few mins to turn a few knobs. I have a few different profiles that I switch between.

@markwalton8644 4 месяца назад

I was thinking your exact point and fit a lightened fly wheel and shorted final drive for under 15k and I bet you wouldn't be far behind the experience you'd have in the S/T. 100k is a lot of money for the extras you get. I believe all the S/T's have already been sold, probably to collectors ( who won't drive them) or salesman so they can sell them on for Mega bucks😢

Dear Matt, after delivery I drove my touring and I instantly felt that the rear suspension wasn't good as the front; rebound and high speed damping made the car jumpy after several bumps. For a moment I regretted the car. I contacted my specialist on suspension technic, madeno Racing, and he advised me ohlins ttx dampers on every corner. The oem system is blocked with a cancellation kit. I have to go under the car to change suspension but now irs absolutely the best handling car. Oem dampers where terrible, specially on open roads.

great review Matt. whether this is pertinent, but I have GT4RS, which I absolutely love. I drive my car frequently - 8300kms on the clock. Over the Christmas holiday period, I did a big road trip - Sydney to Melbourne, back to Sydney. I travelled almost 2400kms (1500miles), following the very scenic and winding coast road. The harder I pushed, the bigger my grin became. The roads were almost empty, so I pushed hard, resisting the urge to brake… I had the best time ever. Every car i have previously owned, was a manual, inc my prior car the 981 GT4, however I now truly understand the PDK, and I love it. Yes it was very loud inside (averaged 94db’s), but that’s why this car is so special. To me its the perfect tourer, however my question to you is: How do you think it compares to the GT3 Touring, and the S/T ? Please reply… thanks again Matt cheers Ewan - Sydney Australia

@TheGreekCarGeek 4 месяца назад

The lightweight clutch of the Carrera GT, which I was told by one of the only, if not THE only, Porsche master mechanics to ever work on an S/T clutch (someone in the press already blew the clutch on the black S/T in this very video) is extremely similar to the S/T clutch; which is $34K on Suncoast Parts. Respectfully, Matt, It doesn’t make sense to me to make a comparison with a hypothetical $40K lightweighting package, when it would easily cost that entire sum just for the clutch, which is only one small part of what makes the S/T so special. The massive reduction of rotating mass (in total 85lbs including the PCCBs) and overall lightweighting using CFRP nearly everywhere, is frickin expensive $$ and there’s no cheap substitutions to get such a light and blippable/revvy car. Considering that the next closest high revving NA, ultra lightweight sports car with a manual transmission is the $2M+ Gordon Murray T33, and that $100K extra (+ crazy $ADM), in my opinion, pales in comparison.

@MrOneMOA 4 месяца назад

The Gordon Murray car is TRULY lightweight. Nearly 1000lbs lighter than a GT3. This S/T is honestly faux light weight. A GT3 touring with a 16gal fuel tank weighs the same as the S/T with a long range fuel tank

My résumé is that there’s no relevant difference between the two models. It’s like with most of the limited edition cars of Porsche. They just change a few parts but it’s actually more about to create a special edition car than building a model that stands alone. I still remember how thrilling it was to drive a 993 RS or GT2..

So ~$40k option worth of significant nuance. You combine that with the collectible status, and the insane market for the GT cars and $100k sound appropriate. Jason Cammisa has talked at length at how Porsche has messed up the MSRP on the GT cars and how NA dealers are profiting off that mistake instead of it benefiting Porsche’s GT team’s development budget. I think he makes a good point, even if it just furthers the unobtainable status of these cars at least the money goes to the correct place.

Great review. I have a GT3 Touring and the only complaint I have is that is is loud inside the cabin. So much more „racing“ than „touring“. If the S/T has even less sound deadening than that would be an issue. I also am fortunate enough to have a 997 GT3 RS 4.0 - and that car is still the best Porsche GT car - imho.
