Jerry Seinfeld and Jay Leno Admire a 1958 Porsche 356 A Speedster | Jay Leno's Garage

[@timchapman5567]

Two good guys -- not just funny, but aware of how important it is to preserve automotive history.

[@kaygeebee]

Have to admit, I really enjoy watching these two together talking about cars. They are the most genuine they can be sharing something they both love.

[@SilvesterHumaj]

Right? I'd watch this video if it was 2 hours long

[@IanPunter]

my 2 favorite comediens post 1980. I was really into comedy in the 70s, had woody allen and george carlin records, the best years of SNL, the most inspired comedy ever by Brits Monty Python and Marty Feldman. Since 80 kind of lost interest but Leno and Seinfeld were among the best, good to see their such freinds.

There was a short in the steering column and every time I made a right turn...the horn would honk!!...lol...I was one of the most popular undergrad student on a campus...lol The drive back to my hometown was right at 400 miles...on a 9.9 gallon fuel tank...I couldn’t quite make it home.

I can't even be jealous, even though I'll never be able to afford one. The closest I came was my '71 914 in college. To me, it was driving perfection. I'll never forget how it felt to take it through turns, heel and toeing it. Thank you.

[@DonTruman]

I'm amazed at the quality of the paint of all of them, even this faded blue one, but especially that one that still shined and only had a few cracks in it, nothing peeling off. I realize they were kept in garages most of the time (and it shows just how important that is) but still, 60+ years is a long time. And that was 1950's paint technology. And likewise all other petroleum products: seats, seals, gaskets, adhesives, etc. All of that is disintegrating in my 1994 vehicle, even when a part was sheltered from direct sunlight, such as engine and transmission gaskets.
