How have your impressions of the new Porsche 911 (992 model) changed after 9 months of delivery?

Porsche 911 Cabriolet (Type 992)
Reviews & Test Rides

I haven't driven a 911 Cabriolet (992) in a long time.

We have a 911 Cabriolet (992 model) and my husband has driven it about 5000 km so far, while I, on the other hand, drive it only occasionally. My husband has told me that "Why don't you get on more!I'm often told, "I'm not a car person," but I usually only drive the car to the supermarket a few minutes away from my house or to pick up my children from kindergarten, so I'm not a "car person."What a waste of time to bother with a 911 at this distance...I think, "I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do.

Since the 911 is a "sports car that can be driven both on the track and in everyday life", I guess there is no need to pay that much attention to it....

And if you're a bit of a rider and care to ride, you could probably just go for a ride in the Ashiu Driveway and drive as far as you want, but I'm like my husband, "I'm not going to be able to do that.I would like to drive a car if I had a little time.I am a very normal person, not that I am a "good person"...W, saying that, I can't help but have fewer opportunities to drive a 911.

Then the other day, when I was picking up my child from kindergarten, my husband said to me, "Why don't you try the 992?I was told, "I'm not a good driver. So I drove it for the first time in a while and was surprised to find that it was very easy and pleasant to drive.

Every time I've ever been in a 911.It's totally different from when I first took delivery of the car," "The ride has become more comfortable.and so on, but this time may be the most surprising so far.

In fact, not too long ago, my husband's brother (who is also a car enthusiast) drove this 911 Cabriolet.

I'm like, "Oh my God, it's so good! It feels so good and it's so easy to ride, I wish I could ride it more every day!"

My husband told me that he had said.

At the time, I was like, "Yeah? Yeah?The bare 992 has a fairly stiff suspension and a strong air-cooled feel of a solid body vault.I had been thinking, "I don't think it would be easy to ride it since it's so small..." But after riding it for the first time in a while the other day, I could understand why my brother said so.

The ride was clearly milder and more supple, and even the car itself had a milder sense of vaulting and stiffness. I tell my husband.

Yes, it has certainly become much milder and more supple. I think it has become easier to ride. To be honest, when I rode the car on the day of delivery, I thought, "Oh, I might sell this one soon.I didn't have a very good impression of it because it was so hard to ride. But as I rode it, it became more and more supple, and nowadays I can ride it without any stress.
The last time I went for a drive in Ashiu, the car was so easy to drive that I thought it was a GT3, but it didn't suddenly turn on its fangs like a GT3. It was really enjoyable to drive.Is the sport mode enough, and don't we need a sport plus mode?I'm so high performance that I'm thinking, "What the heck is this?
I am impressed every time I drive it that it is such a well-balanced and well-designed car.
It's not a pentagon of nutritional balance for corn flakes, but I think 992 has a good balance of those pentagons, and the values for each item are insanely high.

911, changes between immediately after delivery and now

And when I tweeted on Twitter that I hadn't driven a 911 in a long time and it looked so much better, I got this question.

Have you changed a lot compared to when you took delivery of the car? I test drove a Carrera 2 Cub (with inch up wheels) on a PC the other day and thought "the thrust and road noise are much greater than I expected..." and I'm wondering if I should stop ordering.

And.

I asked my husband about this.

Well...compared to when I took delivery of the car, it has really changed. The uncomfortable thrust is almost gone, the corners have been removed, and the car is now mildly supple and comfortable to ride in. However, it's still a bit of a pain to drive.Overall, it is more muscular than the 991 model, which gives the impression of being stiffer.I wonder.
Also.Road noise is normal.The 911 is a sports car, not a quiet car like other luxury cars, so I don't think it can be helped. So, if you imagine a car like AMG, it is a little different.
However, if the engine is properly revved and the suspension is properly loaded, I am sure it will get better the more you drive it. Come to think of it, I have heard that the 992 from MY2021 has an even better ride quality.

He said.

In the case of a new car or a car with low mileage, the car's character and performance will probably be very different depending on how the owner drives it. In our family's case, we are fortunate that my husband is aGrowing PorscheI ride with the sense of "I am grateful that the 911 has grown in a good way, and I am able to experience the process of change as I ride it.

    I always enjoy looking at your site. Thank you ^_^
    I have been wanting to know for a long time but have given up because there is no way to know, but I was wondering what percentage of you have purchased a 911 Carrera with 19/20 inches.
    (If you buy a Carrera S or larger, you are automatically limited to 20/21 inches, so you are only bound to buy a bare Carrera.)
    From the viewpoint of GT, I think 19/20 inch is totally possible with emphasis on ride comfort, but I wonder if there are many people who choose 20/21 inch? ^^;

      Thank you for visiting my blog!

      About the 911 Carrera wheel size, yes, what percentage...!
      I asked my husband about it.
      I don't know about that... I think the best way to find out for sure is to ask the dealer.
      I think it would be a good idea to ask the dealer once.
