Will actually owned one—specced it, drove it, and sold it after only a few thousand miles. Derek’s driven several 992s and just dropped a full review on his channel, ElevenAfterNine, comparing the modern T to his 1972 911 T.Is the Carrera T a genuine driver’s car built for purists, or a marketing exercise in nostalgia? We dig into:- Will’s real-world ownership experience—why it didn’t live up to the hype- How the modern T compares to earlier generations (991.2 T, 911 E/S)- Rear-axle steering, manual gearbox feel, and the “purity paradox”- What Porsche got right—and what makes it feel a little too digital- Will’s latest garage shake-up and his growing itch for another air-cooled 911If you’re considering a Carrera T—or just love hearing two longtime Porsche addicts argue their way to the truth—this one’s for you.Watch Derek’s full Carrera T review on ElevenAfterNine:https://www.youtube.com/@ElevenAfterNineWatch Will’s 992 T playlist:https://www.youtube.com/@TheRennthusiastTell us in the comments: Is the Carrera T Porsche’s best modern driver’s car… or just a clever upsell?#Porsche #CarreraT #Porsche911 #992CarreraT #RennthusiastRadio #ElevenAfterNine #TheRennthusiast #PorschePodcast #PorscheCommunity #PorscheLife #PorschePassion #PorscheFans #PorscheLove #PorscheAddict #911T #PorscheTalk #SportsCarCulture #PorscheReview #CarPodcast #PorscheDebate Hosted on Acast.
