In this thrilling episode of Seen Through Glass, we witness a showdown between the iconic 911 Carrera T and the exclusive 911 St. The Carrera T, with its six-speed manual gearbox, stands out in a world where manual transmissions are becoming a rarity. Meanwhile, the limited edition 911 St pays homage to 60 years of the 911 legacy, boasting a GT3 RS engine and a lightweight flywheel for a truly raw driving experience. The St's unique visual features like carbon fiber doors and magnesium wheels set it apart on the road.

Behind the wheel of the 911 St, Seen Through Glass experiences the raw power of the GT3 RS engine and the thrill of the manual gearbox with a shorter gear ratio. The lightweight flywheel adds to the excitement, allowing for quick revs and a race car-like vibe. Despite its performance prowess, the St surprises with its exceptional ride quality, thanks to redeveloped damping software that enhances comfort without compromising on agility. The lack of driving modes adds to the purity of the driving experience, making it a true driver's car.

As Seen Through Glass navigates the roads in the 911 St, the car's usability shines through, offering a blend of performance and practicality. The updated steering ratio and absence of rear-wheel steering provide a more predictable and stable driving experience, making it a joy to drive both on the track and during daily commutes. Despite the acclaim surrounding the 911 St, comparisons to the GT3 touring reveal that while it excels in many areas, it may only offer a marginal improvement over its counterpart. Ultimately, the 911 St stands as a testament to Porsche's ability to create a unique driving experience that combines power, precision, and everyday usability in a limited edition package.
