Andy, Lee & Saquib have spent the morning driving the new 992.2 Carrera T alongside two other RWD manual Porsche 911s from the back catalogue: the 997 C2 GTS and 996 40 Jahre.
With lots of talk around the new Carrera T – possibly the last ever manual 911 Carrera – the boys discuss its merits including its bespoke 6-speed manual gearbox. Is it worth the substantial financial outlay over the two other RWD manual 911s on test?
