Cars with Luke shares a first-drive review of the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (992.1), highlighting its styling, performance, and everyday usability. Finished in Aventurine Green with a unique specification, the car stands out visually, especially with its full-width rear light bar, RS Spyder wheels, and optional design upgrades. While some styling elements—like chrome trim and rear lighting details—may divide opinion, the overall look grows on you.
Inside, the truffle-brown interior feels premium and well-built, though minor issues like a squeaky seat and partially obscured digital gauges detract slightly from an otherwise high-quality cabin. The small electronic gear selector takes getting used to but doesn’t significantly affect usability.
Powered by a 450 PS twin-turbo flat-six with all-wheel drive, the Carrera 4S delivers strong acceleration and impressive launch control performance. The car feels engaging and planted in corners while remaining comfortable enough for daily driving.
Although the turbocharged engine lacks the classic naturally aspirated Porsche sound, its exhaust and turbo noises are still enjoyable. Overall, the 992 Carrera 4S blends performance, comfort, and usability, making it an exciting yet practical modern 911.
