[@no_lft_shft]

It's so cool to see high school buddies grow up to become successful in their own rights inside this car community. Absolute legends.

A detailing podcast would be awesome BUT you already do so much. I would definitely listen if you started one up 😄. Thank you Larry, car looked incredible!

[@QuidproMoto]

This exactly. Make your podcasts something Ammo worthy. That would be awesome.

[@rbdesignsnh]

he had one for a while, but it hasnt had an episode in a while.

[@lgalmeida13]

Larry, I love your videos!!! When I'm having a bad day, I always watch your videos they make me happy!!!! Keep pumping another decade!!!! Well done and deserved!!!

[@AMMO-NYC]

Thanks for the support!

[@PaulRozeboom]

Congrats to Matt on the new car! Honestly I have been watching you and Matt for 10 years now and its crazy how fast time goes by. Feels like just the other day i stumbled upon your channel and its so awesome to see how far you've come. I would love it if you brought back the podcast, would love to hear about the business side of things on the podcast too! Hope you meet you someday Larry! - Paul

[@AMMO-NYC]

Thanks so much for the support Paul!

[@kylewithfocus]

I think all AMMO videos are wholesome but this one is extra. Love the car. Matt did a great job and love the detail and video.

[@mayadenton9329]

So awesome to see Larry & Matt driving Porsche’s and making car content all these years later. Keep up the great work!

[@crisholmurb007]

Totally agree with Mat's analysis of the car in the end. This guy knows his stuff! Thanks to you Larry for another great video.

[@PeteKowalsky]

That color is growing on me. Not sure I could pull it off - car looks fantastic in whatever color, I'm sure. nice work as always Larry!

[@yetti96]

Yes, Larry please start up the podcast again. Only if you can fit it in your life. You’re already a busy guy with a demanding schedule and a successful business, don’t forget the family aspect. We will watch and love everything you do regardless. Thanks for taking us on your journey with you.

[@stevansaunders18]

Well said!

[@davidmoffitt981]

This may be one of if not THE favorite video you've made as I see it, there's such a fun and relatable thing with you and Matt, reminds me so much of all the car buddies I've grown up with, and how we still stick together and talk shop / go for random drives.

[@jefferyhicks9782]

Larry I just want you to know I'm a USAF Veteran and I am currently working a full time job but you have been the biggest influence and my biggest detailing role model for my growing small business Hicks Auto Detail ( named after my grandpa's used car lot). I would love to talk to you some time if you would ever have the time to talk to me. Thank you for all your tips and guidance

[@JrVtec]

Hell yeah bring the Ammo Podcast back! Love every single one of them, 50 Cars at Sema, Freedom 1, Answering questions, etc, Gotta have Joe, Jason and Kevin on the first one to kick things off though lol.

[@seventysschev]

Totally agree! I would love to listen to the old episodes and new ones too.

[@timtrask2179]

Love this! The “Larry move” and the call back clip was great! And OMG! Yes!!! Bring back the podcast. I cant be the only detailer that listens to podcasts all day to pass the time.

[@DownUnder_Auto_Detailing]

Yes, Larry! Would love to see the detailing podcast make a return for sure!!

[@carmelshustiel7513]

i love to see this channel and other detailing cars channels. for me it's like a dream, i clean my car in self service car wash and it's bad: with no roof, no foam, only soap pressure water and rinse water. i try to do my best but it's not... perhaps one day i will do a video on that... and of course - Yes!!! i will love that you do your detailing podcast again!

[@joelanucha3929]

Matt is the man. Always answers Instagram messages, and the podcast and videos are great. I started following him after you detailed his Countach. And yes! Please start the podcast again

[@twoclevah]

Keep up the great content Larry! Always love seeing Matt and you pick right back up despite being on opposite ends of the country

[@seandebottis3276]

The backstory with you and Matt is the best, you guys are a great compliment to each other. I thought of Matt’s safari car when I saw this color. I love the color, it’s different. It seems like all the new cars are white, black, or red. Great video, as for the podcast do what allows you the most bang for the buck. There is only so much time in the day and family always comes first. Looking forward to you ordering a similar spec car. Also, I think Matt’s original car was on the ship that sank…..what a wait for a killer machine.

[@gp500fan]

That 718 Spyder is an absolute beauty and a beast at the same time! As someone who owns a 997.2 911 TTS, I also tap my feet together to knock off any dirt before I get in to the car.

[@odishoyounan]

I loved listening to the podcasts and would absolutely love to have you bring them back, so long as it wouldn't add too much to your workload.

[@tyler9703]

I heard that people thought this spec was off, and hopefully I'm not the first to say that those people are wrong. Whenever I stop by my local Porsche dealer to window shop it's always the same red or yellow over black interior and black wheels on these, so to see something so different is awesome! Not to mention the light pink and red combo works super well in-general. Props to Matt for being brave and ordering such a cool color combo, and I hope it inspires more customers to do the same!

[@fundamentallybroken4194]

That has to be one of the nicest looking new Porsches on the road today. Top up or down, it just looks perfect.

[@FabspeedMotorsport]

What an incredible color! Amazing to see how much detailing work can be done to improve on a brand new Porsche

[@leonardoluc6362]

STUNNING! OMG best looking car at the moment, the 718 spyder is better looking than the 991 speedster, mid engine 4 liter, 6 speed manual, 8k rpm its insane driving machine but did i say its looking insane beautiful. Even better than a 991 Speedster as dimensions are fabulous perfect. Beautiful color just stunning and different as i am a big fan of the Miami Blue but now not so sure.

[@rickbaker4571]

I love love love you and Matt together... makes me think of the old days. Miss those.

[@grattidude]

Larry I love how excited you are about your long-time friend's new car. You're a real one.

[@dolphinlover1691]

Just as I was thinking to myself "that's a bit of a girlie colour but I won't comment on it", he took the words right out of my mouth 🤣🤣💗

[@joshuakhan5350]

Love the fact you highlighted ‘modified’ as a hark back to his show on the Drive network back in the day. Awesome content as usual Larry, totally enjoyed listening to you on his podcast too! 🎉

A Mentor for detailing industry. Mr LARRY.

[@hauntingeight9453]

I just want to say thank you Larry! I have been a fan for years, love the the work you do, and thank you for inspiring me to open my own detail shop! We are small but the clients couldn’t be more happy, especially with all the little tips and tricks you taught me. Thank you!!

[@jptak1969]

I much prefer to drive than clean, but I also love having a clean car and watching your videos always makes me go out and clean mine (I have a plain-jane white 718 Spyder ;)). I'd love to see some tips, etc. for the best methods when living in an apartment and things like "hoses" are tough to come by. I recently sold my house and am living in temporary housing and it's killing me that my only options are the local pressure wash place!

[@jaykuykendall7660]

I always enjoy it so much when you and Matt are back together. And yes, I miss the podcasts!!!

[@der_kluger_gunther8391]

damn those exhaust are insane and beautiful! i love hearing the "roar" sounds. i don't like pink colors on cars but this is a really interesting mix you got there so i really like it!

[@chrisnorcross3322]

When I saw that modified episode I knew that would buy one of these. I didn’t know it would be pink but I knew he would buy one of these. Great video! You guys clearly won at life!

[@melmalph]

You already do so much, Larry! But if you brought back the podcast, I would listen. Another fantastic job on the car. Love that color!

[@nexus77241]

Great episode! It's really cool to see old friends hang out and work on cars together. Also, I've been to DeMan before (it's right near my house) and the place is awesome! Rick is really down to earth. My 951 was jacked up from a previous shop and Rick fixed it and made the car fun to drive again. Would like to see you do the podcast again. I liked listening in the past.

[@stevansaunders18]

The Pocast would be great…but how would find the time😂? Love the channel and appreciate your hours of hard work and instructing us on how to properly clean (drive) and protect our cars!

[@JeffJacquesmd]

I have a Frozen Berry Metallic GTS 4.0, one of a couple made in 2022. She great on the road, awesome on track and a pleasure to look at. Great job derailing this beauty for Matt. Cheers

[@RealJasonLove]

Yes god please bring back the podcast. It allowed all of us nerdy detailers into the mind of one of the greats and to get behind the science of everything. I listen on repeat all the time! I love the videos but I also want to learn more!

[@joetacchino4470]

Love this car, although I'm not wild about the combo of that interior / exterior. I like both, individually. But it's Matt's car and he's the only one that needs to appreciate it. Certainly that engine is a BEAST and this car is going to rip something fierce. Can't wait for the driving videos once he gets it broken in. Yes, would love a podcast as long as you're not working yourself into the ground!

[@mgriffin12]

Yea, I can't get behind the frozen berry especially with the red. But if you can buy a Porsche you deserve to do whatever you want

[@leonardoluc6362]

Agree it takes balls to decide on this color but it is insane beautiful for sure.

[@jackbaumeister9389]

So I've been listening to your podcast for a while and was thinking about seeing if you would be interested in starting that up again. I listen to it when I'm at work. It's awesome, hilarious and educational.

[@J_S209]

Larry should be the host of “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” rebooted. What a car and what fantastic detailer Larry is.

[@MrW8411]

I’ve been waiting for this video to release! I recently listened to TST podcast when Matt was picking the car up. As usual, a very enjoyable listen and a very satisfying watch.

[@nichijou56]

My local Audi dealership sends their higher end models and super picky customers to my shop and I've definitely noticed the weird hazing from the factory film too! It almost always goes away after a single step polish but I've only seen it persist on a couple cars. I have yet to hear back about the marks on those vehicles so i think its entirely superficial. Great work as always!

[@Laspatoadv]

My dad has a 190SL and my dream car is the 718 Spyder. It was crazy seeing them side by side here. So cool!

[@derektiedke1605]

If you start the podcast up again and get it on Spotify, I will listen through the ad reads and listen to every episode. Can’t get enough of what you do for our industry.

[@ryansandberg7261]

I recently discovered your old podcast. I love to listen to it at work detailing for a dealership. I use it as motivation and education for my own detailing business.

[@patrickgarrett6498]

Incredible businessman and always the perfect gentleman. What a pleasure to watch and learn.

[@CFChristian]

Sometimes I regret listening to my brother who talked me out of starting the detailing journey. No regrets though. It's obvious you work your ass off, and it shows. Appreciate all the hard work you do!

[@gregcrook6940]

You have my vote on the podcast! I love all you do and sell.

[@lifeislucci]

Yes, Larry! We miss your podcast

[@thomasjrinnus9935]

Yeah those squiggly lines on the PTS Porsches are a pain. Worked at a dealer a few years back and we used a heat gun to melt/blend the lines into submission. That was a recommendation from a factory Porsche rep.

[@nichijou56]

Did that only happen to PTS Porsches in your time there?

[@okkaybender]

I work at Subaru and detail all the new cars that come in straight off the trailer. those white paint protector sheets are a pain sometimes. I feel like they do more harm then good. i've had plenty of times where the glue from the sheets will bind into the clearcoat or scratch it when you take them off. you have to be super carful with those!

[@gloomyxyz]

This video cannot come any sooner!! Just a jaw dropping colour and setup.

[@thomasthornton5125]

This was a great video. When I get my next new car, it's coming to you first! And I love Matt Farah. One of my favorite car guys.

[@bradleythompson7722]

Yes, start up the podcast. The tips you bring to the table have helped me so much. When are you going to start the classes you have spoken about? May you and your Family have a blessed Thanksgiving. Take Care

[@curtischiswell]

If you have the time, the detailing podcast would be gratefully received 👍🏼

[@benjifronk6312]

It's funny to see that when Matt walks in, he says what's up and immediately talks about the car. I love his enthusiasm.

[@jimbenedict1257]

[@tatethein1802]

Once I found your podcast I probably watched all the episodes in a week. I would love it if you started that up again!

[@DaveWrightKB9MNM]

I detailed cars for a few dealers and always kept the sticky papers with the car. Isnt it amazing how 1 incident can change the way you do things? I love watching your vids.

[@i.am.adrian]

Beautiful car, beautiful sound! I gotta be honest, i've never thought Porsches sounded very good. A standard 911 sounds like a grumpy sewing machine...no menacing burble, no deep growl, no racy scream. Just brrum, brruum. Maybe it sounds better from the inside but they are very uninspiring from the outside. This one has a GREAT sound!

[@switawivr6]

Frozenberry Metallic... Dammit, Matt! Stop making me SO JEALOUS!! And Larry... You just keep fighting the good fight, my man. Love these videos. Love the cars you bring to us. Love listening to you ramble on about the cars and the people. THANK YOU!!

[@Standupnfall]

So great Larry, thanks. Had to take some time off from your videos recently but so glad I came back to this one!

[@lyric9902]

Honestly I've been wanting to email you about my friends 1978 Chevy Malibu, it really needs a good detail and definitely needs some love to the interior.

[@charlesberry4958]

Spectacular car!!! Matt’s got some really great stuff in his garage.

[@mraggressive]

I would love to watch/listen to your detailing podcast! You and Matt are both an inspiration to me. I know you're very busy, maybe like once a month? Lol.

[@15super1ford]

Pod cast yes please it’s always filled with lots of information that I didn’t even think about I’ve gotten a lot of info that I have put to work

[@GearheadDaily]

I think it would be really fun just to hang out at Matt's garage and see his collection.

[@GlenBarnett]

Absolutely AWESOME! Love every inch of it, and the fact that you chose the Demann motor swap…! Respect man 💪

[@KevinFlory993]

I noticed some imperfection in my Taycan under the ppf that I convinced me to have paint correction done on my 992 fresh from the factory. I had it trailered home and did the maiden wash, and about 40 miles of driving on a nice, safe, isolated road before sending on a trailer for paint correction, ppf, and ceramic coating and will finally get to pick it up in two days and will finally get to drive it. It wasn't until after seeing Matt with his car at Air/Water (aka Luft 89da 2)0with this car, that I understood what everyone was so gaga about.

[@BrianK04]

It would be interesting if you could get a tour of the new car paint process, everything done from initial application to customer delivery, to figure out where some of these things happen.

[@M1LAD81]

Great work, Larry! When can we see you work on that Volvo 850R? Fab content as always.

[@dionnefycf799]

It’s such a good looking Porsche and a good sounding one too. Porsche has not failed me with their body designs and exhaust notes

[@CyberNacho]

Such a sick detail! Would you know how Matt requested for the dealer to leave the car like this for delivery? Feels like the best way to avoid any sketchy dealer washes.

[@wesd991]

You can request it. Most delears are cool about it as their still going to charge you for the pdi. Plus the delearship detailer will love you for it as it's 1 less car for them to clean. You can also request them to not install the front license plate bracket for y'all that live in those states

[@CyberNacho]

@@wesd991 Good to know about both of those! Especially that front license plate comment since I saw someone post a video with a misaligned front plate on a Ford Lightning.

[@hitnorcal]

Matt is hilarious. Bring him around more often.

[@LeJohnz]

Wow can't believe it's rly been a decade Just pure joy & pleasure in all of your videos! Pls never quit

[@glendennis7866]

I managed several different detailing crews at our various dealership accounts back in the late 90's through the early 2000's the shipping protection on Mercedes was a pain in the you know what!! Specially black peeling off the white film left chucks of glue all over.... Also on the bumpers they put what looked like cheese cloth man that was worse than the white paper lol.. Awesome video as always Larry!!

[@glendennis7866]

Also Larry 100% it's condensation that gets trapped under the white paper and seeps into the clear

[@bstewartexecutivecarcare3797]

Matt’s laugh while driving to me says it all. Congratulations Matt‼️

[@breniawallace]

Please start a podcast; you have so much knowledge us detailers would love to listen to and learn from.

[@OGC1970]

Had the largest detail/reconditioning shop in a state in the 90’s. Wasn’t a auto, boat, semi, sales business that didn’t use my shop. I would probably still be doing it if KZbin existed then. I had a lot of fun. Factory paint quality, procedures, products sure ain’t what they used to be. “Orange peel” is now SOP right from the factory.

[@lorenzocabrere]

The stickers a good fit and it looks so nice and I agree with Matt absolute slap in every way
