Thank you for the highly informative video. I was swirling in the purchase funnel but extricated myself. I am going to go with jack rails on the Boss 302 Laguna Seca. They protect the pinch welds so regular steel jack stands can be used without harm. M.E.T.A.L. There is no substitute in an otherwise plastic world. Just subscribed.

Colliding with wild animals in that looks extra dangerous!

The perfect 911 - nothing balanced the 911 DNA with modernity quite like the 993…..

Beautiful car! I owned a 1986 944 Turbo (951) for many years and whish I still had it. I must caution you, however, to never slam the hood (bonnet) or the rear glass hatch. The rear glass is famous for delaminating near the hinges at the top of the glass. Just bring it down slowly and then gently push it shut, as you would with a 911 bonnet. And please don't tell me you slam 911 bonnets closed to!

What a crap name for a business selling Porsche...'911 Virgin' I am surprised Richard Branson has not sued your arse!!

Considering there is luggage capacity in the rear, this car would be perfect if it has rear access like the McLaren GT instead of one breaking your back trying to feed luggage through the front seats…..??? Sensational vehicle……

I can certainly vouch for the speed of this car having been a passenger when new. Blistering performance. Just incredible.

What a great video. All of the history. Everything spot on. Nothing misquoted. Well paced. Amazing information. Have my manual GTS 4.0 coming in August. Traded in my 996 turbo. Had been set on getting a 992 Carrera T but it just felt too polished and too big when I sat in it for an hour at the dealer. When I sat in their floor model GTS, all felt right in the world.

These original Caver One are going up and up in price. Phenomenal beast ! But sadly most of fortunate people can only afford these. PS. You should not be scared as it cannot fall . STEP ON IT !

This car should have orange front and fender blinkers. Those clear ones aren't original. Oranges look SO MUCH better. Cheers. What a fantastic car!

Great presentation. Nice to hear from someone who knows their stuff. Totally agree with all. 944 in addition to sporty fun and nice looking car, the rear boot makes life better. I switched to Boxster and immediately missed the back seat and folding rear seats for gear as you said. I like a car that works well with life, Porsche 944 compliments life it doesn't compromise it.

PSE was not standard on the 40 Jahre. I’ve just has Porsche OE switchable exhaust fitted to my 40th.

Excited that I’m one day away from collecting my own 40th Jahre. My wife insisted we go by train so that we both get to drive the car back home.

Your face is as slender as the Carver car compared to a regular car, akin to how Tom Hanks appears from a distance.

With regard to the handbrake,. Porsche have always got things arse about face, they did the same when they introduced the PDK gearboxes, pull to change down, push to change up. While all of their customers were lusting for the proper logical systems that they could get in the 360 F1 and the BMW E60 M5,. Porsche said that their customers prefered it this way!. That's Porsche arogance for you!. It took Porsche a couple of years but eventually they bowed to customer pressure.

"Newton meters l"

Nicely done Henry. That little car punched well above it’s weight

Thanks. Was curious what was inside of them.

Great video. I have a video request or a simple reply would be appreciated.I know that people that can afford these cars don’t have to ask, I’m not wealthy but love cars that I shouldn’t buy and will stretch to get them. So my question is what are the running cost of a GT3 or Gt3RS. I’d like to know a rough guide of servicing costs, thanks

Thank you for the video! Already hat them in my basket. Seems like I have to continue searching for a alternative.

Had one black on black. Was a minter. One of the best cars I ever had.

Love the video. Thank you. Doobie brothers was a nice addition.

I never watch 25 min videos all the way through but I did with this one. Lots of good info making me want one of these. Great content.

Pro Tip: never touch bare metal with your bare hands...

I like the video. You need to not speak so much when Steve speaks. no need to talk over or interupt Steve when he's giving good information.

964 Carrera4 Cabrio - since 1992 the best car I ´ve ever owned!

Timeless beauty. I don't think that the transaxle was a major success as it made the car a bit tail-happy. But it had style by the bucketload and it was (dare I correct an expert) a PORR-SCHA.

Oh wow! I can't believe it, but you are the first reviewer that I've seen that addresses the park brake switch error! 😆

As you mentioned, there are tons of videos unboxing these and using them for the first time. Hope the company makes good on a warranty claim for those because I would not use them further.

Great video.

In order to prevent future corrosion due to electrochemical incompatibility of iron and aluminum you should apply ceramic paste (non conductive obviously) between the joints to prevent or at least prolong the next corrosion period. (Drive a 997.1 build in 06/2005)

Sorry, but 924 doesn't have Audi 100 engine... it looks like, but it isn't.

MIne has 363000 miles on it, used all year round every day, its just give up so in need of some T L C . amazing cars.

I love my T! It’s a car that I can’t stop driving and gives me so much satisfaction every moment behind the wheel. My only complaint would be is that I wish it had a bit more power, but I guess I’ll have to move up in the 911 range for that.

This look amazing and fun machine to have, going to work and not having traffic headache

Interesting video amazing operation, quick and smooth. Would be interesting to see the glass targa top operation when you have one in stock.

My favorite of all times is the 40th Anniversary Edition.

Great vid packed with useful information and without any romanticism so often shrouding the reality of ownership 👍

This particular model the 911.1 gt3 had finger follower issues after the engine fire issue. This is the reason why porsche granted the car a 10 year warranty which is not mentioned in the video. Porsche made many new engines models under this warranty but the finger follower issue kept coming back. Users on the rennlist forum, which is where the issue have also been documented by many owners of the car, discussed a design flaw with the hydraulic lifter system of the car. This is why for the 991.2 gt3, porsche switched to solid lifters to avoid another finger follower issue and warranty extension, as well as a lawsuit.

The year I turned 50, coincided with the same year I was promoted to Navy Captain. I had always admired the 944….a friend of mine in one of my commands, had a red 944Turbo….I was driving a Mazda RX7. Fast forward, I turned 50….and found a pristine Baltic Blue 944S2 Cabriolet. Fast forward to today? I’m retired from the Navy, and retired from federal law enforcement. The kids are gone, a couple dogs gone, the world is almost unrecognizable from that of the early 1990s. I still have the 944. She is stored 5-6 months of the year, has just a hair over 60k on the clock….I keep up her service…and still love dri ping her. And when out on a trip, it gets compliments from all age groups: older people reminiscing….younger folks questioning. Great video, brother. Thank you!

Whatever happened to this car?

I great review and a fair appraisal. I own a 1990 944 coupe S2 myself, I would agree the car does need to be driven harder, its quite a lazy engine at low speeds and it seems to come alive when over 4000rpm; the engine takes on a much more aggressive character which the video doesn't convey. Its one of those cars that also feels very different when its fully warmed up to when its cold. The build quality is very high and the sound the doors make when you open them and close them is a thing of beauty. I've had mine 11 years now, I was lucky I found a low mileage example that had been well cared for and I've spent a lot on her too. They seem to be getting more love now that people have recognized that they are great cars in their own right. I think its a great design and still looks good today!

What happens if you eat Häagen-Dazs ice cream whilst mashing the accelerator in Sport Plus mode?

Denzel Washington has a beautiful black 993 Turbo that he has detaile regularly, and he claims it's one of his favorite cars to drive And he has quite a few other cars.

Keep up the good work Henry! Love your videos with lot’s of nitty gritty details and facts! 0:00

Brilliant video - love the 996 Cup’s, but it’s a rare thing to find a video showing the car, never mind taking the time to run through all of the details and explaining the reasoning behind the modifications. Thanks 👍🏻

Less is "more" when Porsche needs to sell them and was having trouble. And "Less is more" when their baseline car and the "T" version have increased drastically in price over only a few years especially when you add any options. They are no longer "more". They are "Less". Less desirable, Less worth the price, Less Impressive. Even though the opposite is being propagated

You never mention the internal differences between the 3.8 and the 4.0 engine but l suppose that's been done to death.Ipersonally find flicking a paddle pretty boring after a while.l wouldn't have an automatic for the road only for the track.I find the bucket seats great but need to be lifted at the front.Seat recliner brackets can be purchased that helps.Hard to know what to replace the four litre with its pretty special.

Ever since I experienced my mates 997 Turbo at Spa I want one ! It was absolutely brilliant. I drive a Cayman 718S which is a great car but I think a turbo would be a good upgrade. Had a B5 RS4 modified to 500bhp before the Cayman so I miss the power

Thanks for the video, I was just considering buying them
