In this episode of Seen Through Glass, our host takes us on a thrilling ride in the 992 generation Porsche 911 Carrera T. Now, you might think that stepping into a base 911 after owning a GT3 would be a step down, but you'd be wrong. From the moment he laid eyes on this yellow beauty, he couldn't wait to get behind the wheel and hit the road. And boy, did it deliver.

With over 8,000 miles on his GT3, our host is no stranger to putting miles on cars. But the Carrera T proved to be a whole new experience. It's different, it's exciting, and it's everything he could have hoped for. The driving pleasure is unparalleled, with a pure and analog feel that is hard to come by in today's world of horsepower battles and lap time obsession.

But it's not just about the driving experience. Our host also takes the time to appreciate the design of the Carrera T. With its clean lines and iconic silhouette, it pays homage to the 911s of the past while still feeling fresh and modern. And let's not forget that yellow paintwork, which looks absolutely stunning in the sunshine.

As our host explores the UK roads, he can't help but wonder if the Carrera T might actually be more enjoyable to drive in these tight and bumpy conditions compared to his GT3. While they are different beasts, the Carrera T still holds its own, offering a level of control and predictability that is hard to match. It's a true sports car, designed for enthusiasts who want to feel connected to the road.

In the end, our host contemplates the idea of owning both a GT3 and a Carrera T, but realizes that the similarities in their specs might not justify the expense. However, he can't deny the sheer joy and fun he had while driving the Carrera T, and it's clear that this car has left a lasting impression. So, if you're looking for a pure driving experience and a car that will put a smile on your face, the 992 generation Porsche 911 Carrera T might just be the perfect choice.
