This one is for you guys ♥

[@keepsoulfree]

Joe, I'm watching you from the very beginning. You had 2 or 3k subs. I subscribed on the first watched video of yours, because I knew that you will grow up and make us happy with awesome content! No, THANK YOU !

[@reece005]

Much appreciated 😁

[@hl236]

What a way to bow out in 2022. The video was perfect. Not excessive spec and technical talk, just pure driving and emotion. Hat tip to Patrick film. The b roll and white balance are perfect!

Amazing filmography!

[@thomasz3192]

For anyone who's wondering the roads are in Portugal around the Serra da Estrela mountain range. At 0:47 you see a sign that says Centro Limpeza Neve. Thanks for the amazing video Joe. It's a real achievement to dedicate 10 years to producing amazing content.

Probably because 880hp AMG GT Black Series, which is blisteringly quick, but had no manual shifter 😛 Love your content, Misha 😍

[@douchetimes]

Hi mishael

[@richiegsimpson]

No. Thank you Joe. Thank you for this exceptional video. Thank you for the emotion. Thank you for the hard work. Thank you and the team for the cinematography and high quality content. This will be, I think, one of my all time favourite videos that you have made. A great celebration of your commitment to your channel over the past decade. Amazing.

[@PetrolheadTours]

What a fantastic way to mark the first 10 years… so many people are so very proud of you and what you have achieved. Well done buddy, very happy for you and very grateful to have been able to be a part of that journey with you. Onwards and upwards!!

[@A15Beats]

Joe, I’ve been watching you for a good couple years. Seeing this special moment really makes me happy for your success and you always manage to make some of the highest quality videos so, this is more than deserved. I wish you even more success and look forward to more brilliant content

[@StefABtv]

Mate, beautiful video, incredible car but more importantly congratulations for the blood sweat and tears you have poured into KZbin over the last 10 years. Genuinely couldn’t be more proud of you for persevering through the tough times to achieve what you have. Inspiring and couldnt wish for a better person to have it happen to. Well done, much love and as usual incredible content ❤👏

[@JoeAchilles1]

Thank you bro that means a hell of a lot ❤️ Great to see you a few times this year, especially for a beer in Rhodes 😅 Sending love to you Maya over Christmas, see you soon xx

[@AutoTraderTV]

Well done Joe

[@AniruddhaNatekar]

Any car that moves it’s driver emotionally the way it moved Joe is a bloody legend!

[@ricardofranco5333]

Outstanding job! Your success is fully deserved. Great effort and outcome, speechless. THANK YOU!!!

[@neillgowans4350]

Joe, really chuffed for you that your hard work, personality and skills are now paying off and you’re getting to review such great cars now.

[@mizzrayman]

Breathtaking watching it, I can only imagine what it must be like in the driving seat 😌. Well done Joe on the milestone, hard does indeed pay off 🤛

[@JoeAchilles1]

Thank you, was a trip of a lifetime!

[@oaekroos1]

I must admit you couldn't have started the video in a better way than you just did. Especially the still shot seeing the taillights of the GT3 going down the road. Fantastic camera work done by Patrick! Congratulations to your decade as a creator, truly inspiring and it's clear that you've got your dream job! I couldn't agree more on your statement that hard work pays off. Hopefully, we will get to enjoy many years to come of your amazing work.

[@TheChismillionaire]

Among the very best videos out there. The sound, lighting, commentary, all of it. Congrats on your well deserved success Joe.

[@derekhanson4215]

I can’t seem to come up with the words to describe how I felt watching this video? It was to me, the purest representation of what it might be like to drive this car. Thank you for letting me experience it with you. 🙏

[@anmu9038]

Thank you carwow for introducing me to Joe, he is amazing guy and you could really feel and see him get emotional in this video and I love it, this is exactly the reason we strive and desire to own such cars, can't even imagine his reaction when he one day buys his own 992 GT3 Touring. Wish you luck in next 10 years Joe.

[@victorkuria8068]

10 YEARS!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉….that takes grit & determination Joe…and the results speak for themselves…it’s why we keep watching….great GUY great content!!! Well done and thank you for making us part of your journey!!!

[@williamwilson5125]

Thanks Joe! As a 997 911 turbo owner the emotion you displayed in this video was relatable. Combining the true driving experience of the 911 with life's emotional roller coaster and the exhilarating highs was brilliant. Keep up the great work!

[@adamsherwood2898]

I’m not one to usually comment Joe but felt I needed to say congratulations I’ve been watching every video of yours for a couple years or so now, there’s something about your content that appears more than a lot of others. Hard work forever pays ! You deserve everything you get ! I’m excited to see you grow further over the next 10 years x

[@AUTOIDTV]

Easily one of your best produced video mate. Incredible. What an experience.

[@PetrolPed]

As good as anything I've seen from Carfection mate...absolutely incredible film. Don't really have many more words than that. Hats off to you 👏

[@john-c]

A truly heartfelt video and have complete admiration. It’s inspirational to see all your hard work and dedication come to fruition especially through all the highs and lows. The videos are only a the tip of the iceberg of what goes into producing fantastic content from inception all the way through to planning, filming, post-production and much more. Plus supported by a brilliant bunch of people! Thoroughly enjoy watching your videos and you deserve every success both now and into the future. Well done Joe! 🥳

[@yiannipalassis4243]

Congratulations on ten years Joe I’ve been watching for almost five of those years and you’ve always been honest entertaining and informative. Your emotion truly shows and it’s refreshing. Thank you

[@Eddison548]

The 992 is definitely one of the best looking Porsche’s and joe’s face tells it all. Emotional to watch and touched with sadness. It reminds me of my brother in law,he was so excited when he picked up his dream Porsche Panamera 3 months ago. Sadly none of us knew that love affair would come to a sudden end after 3 weeks. He passed away. RIP Bill.......Thanks joe.

[@jw8559]

Good on you, Joe. Glad you made this video and got yourself in the position where you could make it. Finally, thanks for the reply on Instagram one time. To your point, we all have tough times, we just have to do our best to stay the course. Even when it feels like a very tough thing to do. May you good times continue. All the best.

[@tomashley5869]

Thank you for sharing your feelings with us Joe, on top of this brilliant drive you’ve brought us all along on. You deserve it mate, with all the hard work you’ve put in. Keep it coming. Enjoy. Cheers, Tom.

[@kane0508LCAC]

Phenomenal video. Well deserved success, Joe. You’ve worked hard and provided engaging and informative content for us all to enjoy! As a car nut, I would love to be in your position one day - you’re words at the end were inspirational. Congratulations on the journey.

[@johnbrown3951]

I have watched your content since Lockdown and yourself and Petrol Ped are the only car channels that are always watched. Congrats on 10 years and I am with you on reaching your goals in life. I remember looking at a view of an Island that I promised myself I would one day visit and fish on 20 years previously and that day in question I was also driving my first Land Rover and I thought as I had been made a Manager in my career on that very island that was the summit but then I was on my own and didn't have 208k subscribers to be there with me. It is important that men talk about mental health and that it is ok to have a tear in our eyes. Good on you for showing emotion on camera and keeping it in the final edit. I am sure your channel will grow and grow and you will have other experiences that will top this one but enjoy this one in your memory until that time. Thanks for sharing.

[@swenmeyer6963]

Still one the best emotional best filmed videos and comments from Joe i have seen. I have my dream gt3 touring since end of march 2024 this year. i love it.❤👌

[@jonatanhedberg7377]

I want to thank you for everything you have given to us petrolheads. The GT3 t is one of the gratest for sure and we all appreciate your work that you put in to give us a glimse of what it´s like. You are honest in your reviews and thats why you will prosper my friend, keep it up! cheers from Sweden

[@JordanNichollsYouTube]

I’ve watched your videos for about 9 of your ten years. You’ve been a go to source of valuable advice and entertainment through some great and crappy times. Thank you for what you do

[@paulelliott3056]

Congratulations Joe on your 10 years! I've been watching the channel for years and so great to see you going from strength to strength. Good on you for all the hard work that's gotten you to this point. Oh, and what a car! 🙂

[@chrisgleason7204]

I am taking delivery of my Touring next week. This is the finest video I have ever seen on this car. I commend you for being able to combine the emotionality of the experience for you without getting in the way of the car and it’s incredible capabilities on what look like the most heavenly roads! Congratulations to you and may you enjoy another 10 years of excellence!

[@jeffreylang9812]

Joe you inspired me to buy my M2 in 2018 with your video driving through the streets of London early one morning. Now I’m in a 2022 GT4 and I share your dream of a GT3 some day. Thanks for keeping it real and congratulations on 10 years. I hope you and I both reach that dream some day.

[@jonathanbeale3978]

Thank you Joe. KZbin suggested your channel many years ago. You have influenced the last 3 cars I have purchased ( M240i, 440i coupe in the amazing Lambo grey and a naught exhaust, and currently G20 M340i. Thank you. A real man is allowed to be emotional, you have built your channel over time and for that you should be proud., I cannot image what was going on in your head in March 2020. When the video opened - no chat, no music I knew it was going to special. Thank you again Joe

[@KeokiDude]

You deserve success because you're humble and are not annoying like so many car reviewers that can't get enough of hearing themselves talk and act like fools. You also seem authentic and reasonable in your assessments of cars. So, thank you.

[@jeg569]

Hit the like button in seconds, stunning video and that amazing flat 6 noise, the production was off the scale. Thank you for taking us along on your journey Joe, such a genuine bloke.

[@dosanjs]

One of the best videos I have ever seen. The emotion and life advice was incredible. A joy to watch. Joe you deserve your success.

[@Notice-aware]

Way to go Joe! Congrats for your success and thank you for your great work that we get to see! Much appreciated!

[@kevinDG7]

So great to see you share this special moment with everbody here on KZbin. 10 years off hard work and epic adventure.

[@G.Charles73]

Awesome to see someone grateful and appreciative for what they worked for rewarded. No entitlement... Happy for you man!

[@craiggiffin]

Joe. I love your work re the Porsche lineup and I’ve watched all of your and now, almost every other GT3, Carrera T plus the Porsche exotics videos out there and this one remains one on my most favoured and special videos on both KZbin and on this car - thanks for making it happen for us and taking the time to share yourself ( and your emotion) and all these great perspectives with your fan group and followers. The GT3 Touring still/ photo profile at the mountain top with clouds behind is most special and makes such a great photo. I’m a big fan from Sydney, Australia and thanks so much from all of us here again. Keep it happening for all of us… Love your work!

[@djshabz6777]

Congratulations on 10 Years Joe! Been watching your content since you picked up your OG M2. Keep it up the great work. Well deserved. #legend

[@thomasjohns13]

I've got a 991.1 GT3 in rhodium silver. It's a common misconception that German cars are souless. But I worked hard. Got the keys to it and had the same wave of emotion on my first drive. It's visceral. Keep patting yourself on the back. You've done a great job.

[@kmh4321]

As a viewer it's not always apparent the amount of hard and dedicated work it takes to keep putting out content continuously. Kudos to 10 years and the well enjoyed treat and thank you for sharing it with us!

[@randomsurfer3963]

When I heard those downshifts at 0:10, I thought it was a PDK, but it is actually a manual, some great shifting there pal...

[@JoeAchilles1]

Incredible clutch and box makes that possible, I will take a tiny bit of credit though ;-)

[@OverlandingwithBruce]

I know I’m a little late but Congratulations Joe. Well deserved and thank you for the inspiration mate. All the best.

[@JSPE13]

unbelievable Joe. I first watched you in the white manual m135. I later bought a blue 3 door manual LCI (convinced my parents to allow me, 20yo, by showing them your “why rwd cars won’t kill you in the snow” video). happy to have been able to watch your journey. long may it continue.

[@mattnewman9330]

Have been with you from the start mate, you are an inspiration to those that haven't taken the brave pill yet. Keep backing yourself, we all believe in you

[@jameswillard1]

Congrats on 10 years! You literally had one of (if not THE best) cars ever made for the journey……992 GT3 Touring with 6speed manual rocks! 🥰

[@Rigla_]

Your best video to date! Awesome cinematics and dialogue! The location is 10/10. Keep up the good work Joe! Youre one of the best! Easy to watch and very entertaining!

[@SunnySTX]

Joe...Thank You...Ive been watching you for years. Thank you for showing the true human emotion, humbleness, gratitude and excitement over the years. This GT3 or maybe the next generation is my ultimate dream drivers car...the one that i want to own and maintain for the rest of my life. I don't think there is another car that is NA, sounds amazing with track car feel...and bravado like this car. Much respect.

[@allenmmcfarlane4977]

...heartfelt congratulations! ...a visual feast, watched the sister video to this one. Together, a testimony of spirit and an exemplar of determination to strive for and live by... with a lovely GT3 soundtrack.

[@stevecade857]

Stunning video. That opening segment gave me goose bumps. The quality was so good I bet Porsche want it for promotional material.

[@step0601]

Years from now when we're all buzzing around in electric vehicles, with the ICE ban still fresh in our minds, we'll look back at this footage and wonder "what have we done!?" What a car, what an amazing road and what a great video. Thanks Joe. I'd call this a fitting tribute to the age of the ICE and also to 10 years of your content.

[@andyohara1393]

Joe. well done on 10 years. Another great and emotive video. The 992 GT3 Touring is probably the only car I would change my 981 GT4 for.

[@frtorres87]

Absolutely breath taking video and cinematography. Congrats on ten years.

[@CFS0717]

The best review ever! What a fantastic and well spoken guy you are. You have an impressive balance in how you do this! Very comfortable listening and watching you!

[@jtthebrick3]

That last minute made me emotional. Hearing that GT3 roar down the road while thinking about the EV world that we are charging towards...was too much for me. It's as if a you are permanently breaking up with the person you love and you'll never see them again. Bravo, Joe! You are the man. More Patrick please. Joe and Patrick = Chris Harris and Neil. Cheers mate!

[@srodigital]

Totally genuine huge congratulations to you Joe for this one hell of an achievement. What a brilliant video about a brilliant brand and car, and what a stonking way to celebrate this special moment of yours. I think I first started watching your content due to my love of the RS6, you were vlogging about one maybe three generations ago, something like that. Some of my all time favourite videos have been you, your friend and the owner of a previous generation grey RS6 driving around the countryside, enjoy the sound of the upgraded and tasteful exhaust. Your M5 Competition videos (is it two or three now, not the CS, not a fan). The M760Li with Tats, brilliant. Then the ultimate video, watched many a time...the Alpina B7 with the boss of Alpina driving...AWESOMEx10. Your reaction and his calm typical racing car driver approach while showing off the two personalities of the car, casually talking to you, as well as being a car fan indicated by his interest in a thought to be M car coming up behind him. Just a few which quickly come to mind. Thank you loads for all the content Joe, and for serving it up in such a straight forward, relaxed, level headed approach that's so comfortable and easy to digest. Continued success and happiness, and here's to you achieving the next big milestone of your dreams. S

[@gorviv529]

The quality of the video was immense. The car is phenomenal. Most importantly though, congratulations Joe. So proud of you and your success. This was emotional. You've worked so hard for this moment, to be in this position. We've seen your progress over the years. Long may it continue.

[@itaybutavia1204]

Wow ! Joe Achilles, You really moved me ! Thanks for all your review and information here on this channel. Good luck to for At least another 10 years. And allows remember ,You are living the dream of most of your fans ! ❤️

[@NathanMannin]

A truly spectacular and heartfelt video you made here Joe. What you have achieved with the amount of hard work you’ve put in is thoroughly deserved. It’s been incredible to watch you since the M135i days, to see how far you’ve come now. The message you delivered about keep going to reach those goals, really resonated with me and it’s so true, keep up the graft and your faith will be rewarded. Your journey is inspiring to me and I’m sure it is to others too. Keep up the tremendous work Joe, and thank you for the excellent content and the endless amount of entertainment you’ve provided us over the years! Thank you ❤

[@charbelgourie]

I have been watching your video. Becouse im a BMW M and Porsche 911 fan. Im so thanksful for your great and proffisonal video. And this last one, that you told your hard work story. Im like you, i love when people work hard. And get what they want. I hope you are coming to Sweden one day.? Have a great sunday and take care

Congratulations Joe. You have been such a legend man! Thank you for the inspirational words. Keep on keeping on, just as you are! Well done Joe!

[@mitchelleverly628]

I got to see a 992 GT3 in person for the first time today and opened KZbin to see this in my feed. Beautiful words from you on a beautiful video. Congratulations on your milestone, and thank you for helping us experience just a little of the magic of driving that car on a road like that.

[@henrya1051]

Best car on the planet by a country mile…..Still pinching myself after I was advised that I achieved an allocation of a GT3. One of the best if not THE best vid of a GT3 in its natural habitat..👌

[@jons3923]

Really great video Joe, I’ve been watching for a few years and I’m glad you got up there to the top of the mountain. Well done and thanks for being honest. The external shots with the sound quality was also immense!

[@steveberridge4648]

Cheers Lee, really appreciate your long term support buddy!

[@alastairsayers195]

This seems a very fitting time to write the following Mr Achilles; 18 months ago I bought a 2017 335D touring, for the engine, largely because of what you've said about that engine. Every day I get in my beemer she makes me smile! I thank you (and a young lady who said "if it'll make you happy, get it!") for that Joe. 😊 Exceptional video mate; respect. One day I'll progress on to the Porsche mark! Happy Christmas to you, your family, and all your followers.

[@sascha.2001]

Hi Joe, this video was also really emotional for me. I have been watching all your videos since many years and I just want to let you know that I think I have grown a friend in you even though we haven't met in real life! Please keep doing what makes you happy and stay safe, my friend :')

[@ASM6888]

What a treat! The subject, the cinematics and the scenary are top notch. Congrats!

[@blazradej1286]

Joe, This is one of the top 3 reviews I have ever seen in my life and I‘m breathing the air on this earth for quite some decades. Your dedication, passion and down-to-the-earth attitude are seen in every single of your videos. If will be lucky enough one day I will own and drive my hero as you name 911 so in the mean time I totally enjoy watching your reviews as I really relate to your driving emotions. This is what makes the life sweeter, so I wish you will keep on living your dream life :) by the way: thank you from the bottom of my heart for your great reviews. Great cars are brought to us closer thanx to you… cheers and all the best, Joe.

[@coachexperience4073]

Well done Joe. Quality work and impressive achievement! You are rightly proud and so you should be! Love the emotion too

[@johnslater2488]

Joe, Happy New Year. Beautifully constructed and filmed with love and respect. This captures the essence of why we all do what we do in all its forms. IMHO no car company wraps it all together, distills and delivers it quite like Porsche. A first class effort, thank you.

[@alimack5489]

The sound and experience of motoring like this is a dying art, it’s fitting to see it shown with the sunset 😢, only the rich will be able to experience it soon. No more noise, no more combustion engines, just soul less electric motors

[@andybance7546]

I’ve watched this before but had to come back to it. You totally deserved this and are the reason why I had to explain to my other half why I’d bought an M135i and later and M2. Keep it going chap

[@samchisholm2088]

Came back to watch this again....still one of the best videos that's ever been done in this space. My master plan is to not be feeling great, go buy this car and max out the loan with credit protection and then go get my diagnosis and smile

[@hasan.baksh1]

Joe, it's been an honour and a pleasure to watch you and your channel grow over the last 10 years. Your hard work has very much paid off and will continue to do so. Plus, it keeps fools like me entertained and for that, we thank you. Well done sir.

[@michaelschneider-]

+1... Longtime subscriber here in Gawds ski country Vail, Colorado .... Herr Joe,,, you Dog! A '22 GT3 Touring,, damn..

[@TheStigmeista]

Thank you too Joe, THANK YOU!! And the sound alone should be a soundtrack, which I would keep on repeat... but hey, I'll just replay this amazing video over and over:) Somewhat reminds me of my first experience with a Honda S20000 passing by close to the rev limiter. Later bought myself a Civic SOCH VTEC, but doesn't come close to this at all... My 2016 Golf GTI is a manual, and the closest I've come to the sound of the Civic..I have seen 117 km/h on 2nd gear once, that EA888 revs far beyond 7000 rpm, and harder all the way as it is a DOCH (to my knowledge at least). But that Porsche, I believe, is an absolute dream for most of us watching.. need it. NOW;-)

[@pearsebarrett2660]

Delighted for you Joe 👏 Great emotional video and well deserved mate 👌

Thanks for your words Joe. I'm going through a low at the minute and I can take joy in the celebration you've experienced in making this video. It gives me hope for better days ahead. Congratulations on your 10 years. Your videos are made with honesty and integrity, and are always a pleasure to watch.
