After watching this all I can say is, what and absolute pleasure to view something real, tangible and satisfying...I loved every second of this. One of the nicest short pieces I have seen in quite some time...BRAVO and respect 🙏

[@matschwarz9261]

"You dont know if you gonna break down. I love that." classic car guy

[@dailydriven991]

Cars, coffee and bjj. This guy has life figured out 🤘🏻. Terrific story.

[@stubbk3]

lives in the right place that makes it easier

[@CurtiMado]

Nico & Mia are special people. They’ve done a lot to bring people together in different car communities. Cheers to them and long live 4.

[@chadbailey7038]

Where is their shop located?

[@Jeffmartinfilmscapes]

Ben Bertucci is THE MAN!! Wait till you see his Naito doc :)

[@aleksandarjonjic1768]

I love it when I see likeminded people treating their old car like it was meant to be treated. My daily is from 1969, and it has not stopped being the family daily for 54 years and it loves it! Yes its underpowered and basic, but man i get into that thing in winter when its minus 20C and it just cranks right up, and goes. Kudos to this dude he gets it!

[@RodrigoKaspary]

gave me goosebumps

[@doca8792]

Ok kiddo. You have a new fan. I love old cars. I love coffee. I love Jiu Jitsu. I love Veterans. Can’t wait to stop by your spot next time I’m in San Diego.

[@twistingterrain7748]

Whenever I’m in Scottsdale I stop by

[@rhgrabowski3855]

Great story, man, business, and 356. Passion begets all.

[@julien7206]

As always, pure car passion beautifully filmed and shared. Thanks for this moment ! Keep going

[@KeithShafer]

Wonderful short film. Nico & Mia are awesome people. They both make the trip to enjoy some great coffee, conversations, and cars even better. I’d go every single day if I lived closer.

[@pd-mh7vy]

So wonderful words. Bravo Νίκο. Greetings from Greece!

[@jonathantrot]

[@berponteberponte3231]

simple, why can all be simple? , love it!! We get really complicated sometimes , and yet there are people out there who are natural , simple and honest to their life's commitments.

[@joshuadockery5386]

Love the FourTillFour Porsche and VW get together in Scottsdale, AZ. Some amazing cars show up!

[@JC-oz6xn]

Beautifully Done. Thank you.....

[@christopherbellisario9195]

Love this spot, didn't realize you did car meets...I'll be there. Thanks

[@damador19]

As always, epic production by Type 7. And for the love of everything holy, someone give Ben Bertucci tons of money to make more films!!!

[@Timothylaing]

[@nelsonclub7722]

"You don't know if they are going to break down!" I had a Dino. Oh I knew. It would be every time.

[@cjpriustt]

Would love to see you open another shop up in NorCal too. I’d go into biz with you. Also a roaster and Porsche guy myself.

[@997WeRKS.]

Well done, once again 🎉

[@aaronedgeart]

Great work, info, vibe and music!

[@gutembergwendell]

So Inspiring!

[@thomassanio8745]

Known Nico and Mika for years. Ever since they invited us and our old Landcruisers to coffee on Saturday mornings in Scottsdale. Good people, great coffee, excellent community👍

[@jrfsailing07]

Very Nice film! I love 356's! I used to drive a Super 90!

[@fotisskaris9041]

Bravo Nicola!

[@jfgkzfrttew7402]

Beautiful video. hello from Moscow

[@jorgecristovao5642]

Excelent!

[@ericmckinley368]

Hi Nico, great video and very well mad, great looking C Car, lots of patina. I am in the process of placing an AMCO luggage rack on the rear of my C car, very similar to yours, I do not have the mounting hardware and it's difficult to find. Is it possible to remove one and take a few measurements of the bolts, spacer and the retaining nut at the end, I know this part is quite long. A picture of how it mounts under the grill, what it grabs onto would be great if possible.

[@nickpappas4133]

Excellent

[@Timothylaing]

I want Naito!!!

[@drink4711]

I love the 356 and the cinematography. Absolutely beautiful. I don't care for coffee, but that's okay.

[@jackjackson1857]

Imagine being able to say having a 365 is the baseline for who you are. Hella cool

[@FfortheT]

The way martial arts people move is so telling. Seems like a good bloke and place to be around.

[@felix_patenaude]

Yes.

[@ChrisSaddlerSam]

Γειασου συνονοματε... Greetings from Greece!!! ;)

[@mamba4711]

Great film! Great cars, what would you need more? 🔥

[@turboZ3]

nice!

[@csmarkham]

I’m here for the 356. Had it long? Recent CA plate.

[@davidiglesiasgomez7616]

Nice trailer. When is the full lenght movie coming? ;)

[@endlessbender]

Amen

[@marioskardambikis8480]

Hello!do you know if niko is of greek origin?if possible tell him that in Greece we also drink fredo (cold) espresso and fredo (cold) capuccino,which are really good!he should try them!

[@airlanggabhumintaraamitaba8363]

Porsche and Coffee...what could be wrong ? 😊

[@dundee12]

Where was this video shot? Big Sur?

[@50zoomie]

The initial tree lined curvy road looks like it may have been 89A North of Sedona, a great drivers road.

[@themichaelemami]

Type 7 could easily produce a video like this once a week. Filmed in 1 day. Need to pick up the pace.

[@GlitteratiLive]

Lovely video, spectacular 356. The story could have used a little more context. Not quite sure what he was talking about, exactly.

[@francescosalvioli8073]

this 356 engine sound is 100% Volkswagen Beetle's

[@xxduker11]

Is the other red 356 in this film owned by Lorenzo? I believe so

[@jasonmorales7527]

Porsche and Volkswagen's, coffee

[@valdurmagi230]

COFFEE is an old OIL.

[@marktweet7395]

Could have bought several of these cars except the iron steering column is pointing straight at your chest!

[@toniwonkanobi]

Dude dresses like Ben Clymer lol

[@hillcevan]

California is an island

[@josephsu95]

the music is a bit out of place

[@esr243]

This was so American. A cliché wrapped in a cliché, and served with a side cliché.

[@colemancalgary5260]

Probably be more interesting if he just talked about the car, no need to include the topic about coffee just sounds too hipster.

[@NoPrivateProperty]

meh

[@herobear]

miracles even envy you :) cheers
