It may have a base engine, but the 2023 Porsche 911 Carrera T has all the right performance parts to appeal to the sports car purist.
The T isn’t the quickest 911, but does it really matter? It still hits 60 mph from a stop in just 4.3 seconds with the manual transmission and reaches a top speed of 181 mph.
Porsche throws its PASM sport suspension, which includes adjustable dampers and a 0.4-inch lower ride height, onto the T, and the dampers adjust at the touch of a toggle. While I left them in their softer setting, my drive partner opted for Sport mode. Both settings control body motions without ever becoming too firm or jittery.
It features a 911 Carrera T graphic along the lower portion of the doors and a badge on the rear end. The mirror housings are a contrasting Agate Grey color, which would drive me crazy as dark colors attract rock chips . The staggered 20-inch front and 21-inch rear wheels are painted Titanium Grey and sport 245/35 and 305/30 rubber in the form of grippy Pirelli P Zero tires.Inside, the dead giveaway this isn’t a base 911 is the lack of a rear seat.
The standard Sport Chrono Package, which is an option on the Carrera S, adds additional drive modes, a drive mode selector to the steering wheel, an analog and digital clock to the center of the dashboard, and active engine mounts.Porsche swaps in a GT Sport steering wheel that feels natural in the hands and sports a classic look. It’s the perfect diameter, not too small, not too big, but just right.
