I’ve always been a fan of Top Gear / Grand Tour guy James May because like me, he’s old-fashioned and has very specific likes and dislikes about things one encounters in daily life.
So he opens this video with a review of his own 2010 Porsche Carrera, going over his setup and option choices in his usual pedantic way.
Then he tries the new 2025 version of his 911 Carrera T, and gentle mayhem follows.
Take 15 minutes out of your life to enjoy his journey, and its ending.
Here’s the spec sheet for said 2025 911 Carrera T. All I’d get would be the no-cost passenger seats (which would allow for grocery bags and gun cases) and of course, a proper manual transmission because that’s how James and I prefer our cars. Price: just under $140,000 — way too much, needless to say, but for a 911, a “bargain” (excuse me, I appear to be having a small nosebleed).
Anyway, I’m by no means a Porsche 911 fan, but even I might be tempted… after watching that video.
