Thanks guys for making this possible! Because so many of you subscribed to our channel, companies like LCE are giving us unforgettable cars. LCE and the owner deserve a very special compliment for letting us show the Carrera GT like this in stead of letting it sit in the garage.

A timeless classic. Like you said, one of the last "old school analog" cars, with its awesome engine and manual gearbox, and without any safety nannies. This will always be one of the greats, unlike many of the modern 2 second 0-60 smartphones on wheels.There is a reason why even today many prefer for example old school mechanical wristwatches over a smartwatch.

[@KingBanter]

It’s an awesome car. One thing I find strange is that this is considered a hypercar, but the 911 (997) turbo that was available at the same time , had the same 0-60 time and was only 7mph slower top end is only considered a sports car by most people?

[@s..a893]

@@KingBanter hypercars are even more expensive and exclusive than super cars and the turbo s is a sports car so yeah, performance doesn’t make a car a hypercar. A new hot hatch would probably give the cgt a good run for its money but you can’t call that a hypercar

[@recipoldinasty]

@@s..a893 tbh no new hot hatch would gove it a run for his money lol

[@s..a893]

@@recipoldinasty I don't mean on a track or anything but on normal roads. Look at the new rs3, 0-60 in the low 3s, same as the cgt plus it's not manual and is 4wd so it'll take off better. So until around 100mph, which is already way over the speed limit on normal roads, even hot hatches could compete with cars like the cgt. Of course on track it would be different though

My mon and me just stood there and he was so happy the car made me smile he took me for a drive in the GT and it was literally the best thing that ever happened to me. I met him last year with the GT and he still remembered me. He took me for a drive again and then he handed me the keys. i will never forget this. this car is a dream.

Thats so cool, my neighbor at my holiday home showed me his red carrera GT last summer. It was purely insane, i still am looking back on that memorie sometimes.

No, hard work doesnt get you anywhere. Idk why everyone says that, its a myth the politics will tell you. There is no cryptos, there is no earning money any other way. Its only hard work!
