I personally like a few specific Porsches, like the Panzerjäger VI Tiger (p) Elefant and the Panzerkampfwagen VIII Maus

[@catfish2]

Oh my god xD

[@frankeewagner]

Lmao

[@joshcorvette]

Excellent taste

[@maxs0294]

The real classics 👌

[@maxs0294]

The more rare ones are a bit cooler tho, like the VK.30.01 (p) or the VK.45.01 Tiger (p) or the non upgraded version of the Elefant (non Turbo/ non Carrera ?): the Panzerjäger Tiger (p) Ferdinand

[@Awesomeman1987]

Right on the button. My buddies brother called me a while back and asked for advice on a new car. His guns were set on a rotary with 150000 km and no rebuild. Car was 5 grand. I told him over the phone I would bet any money the engine has lost compression. Anyhow he clearly listened to me because he bought it (sarcasm). Then calls me about a check engine light 3 days later. I took it out for a drive and it was a total dog, misfiring at idle etc. lmao, I didn't even know what to say. He ended up paying mazda 3 grand for a new engine. Just stupid honestly.

Somebody has to say something: for whom are rear engine cars "wrong"? It is a stupid thing, what Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear (before) popularized. The rear engine layout is not wrong! The thing is, it makes the car only "edgier"! There are advantages to other cars, which let Porsche win a lot of races: the weight is all over the rear-axle. That means, there is mostly enough grip to accelerate! The disadvantage is, that it is not as easy predictable to drive (especially earlier models) as your front engine car. However to say, that a rear-engine car is "wrong" would be the same as saying, that a rear-wheel car is wrong (because mostly a front-wheel car is far saver for most people to drive in most situation).

[@MrLolx2u]

Porsche's lines are easy to remember and their history are full of great recipes. 1948 - Porsche 356. 1st shape that would become the 911 later on 1964 - Porsche 901. The prototype of the upcoming 911 1964 - Porsche 911. The spawn of all modern 911 1973 - Porsche 911 Carrera RS. Peak of the 911 craze and one of the best air cooled N/A collectible. 1974 - Porsche 930. The spawn of the Porsche Turbo. Aka the "Widowmaker" due to the pendullum effect. 1989 - Facelifted version of the 930. Nothing much has changed. 1994 - Porsche 993. Last air-cooled 911. Spawned the infamous GT2. 1997 - Porsche 996. 1st water-cooled Porsche. Spawned the now famous GT3. Aka "Egg-eyes" due to the headlight looking like an sunny side-up egg. Introduces PDK and CCB. 2005 - Porsche 997. Updated version of the 996. Gone with the egg shape headlights and back to round. Saw the birth of the GT3 and 2 RS and the new 4.0L flat-6 engine. 2012 - Porsche 991. New 911 that uses electronic assisted steering booster. Saw the birth of the legendary 911R 2015 - Porsche 911.2. An updated of the 991 line where turbos will be added to the base Carrera. Different from normal Turbo variant which are 4L, 991.2 Carrera will be 3L and GT3 & 3RS are all still 4L N/A flat-6. That's the most condensed history for all different generations of 911 I can give. I did miss out some important ones like the Targa and such but that would be massively complicated to add in so as much as I can condense into an "Porsche 911 For Dummies" guide, this will be it.

[@jirapatthaenphromrat2910]

Jun Kitami Still pretty complicated.

[@MrLolx2u]

Can't help it when that's how the 911 line really works. If you want an even more comprehensive ones like 944, 928, 924, ALL THOSE RACING PORSCHE, 918, Carrera GT, 914 and such, we're gonna have a long day.

I am so sick and tired of hearing about people and their stupid "investment" when it comes to cars. I don't care that I've put $5,000 into a $1,600 car, I love it and I want it to run forever and stay in my hands forever! I ain't selling this thing! What's the "investment"?!?!

[@DavidFlores-wz7uc]

"investment" is a term that restoration mechanics like this guy in the video invented to over charge for a regular job.They tell the customer you are investing 5 k into a pile that is worth 2k, but is ok because is an "investment" ... just sales words.

[@hybridAbsol]

Pouring a 100K into a Nissan 240SX isnt a investment , its a loss cost

[@man_on_wheelz]

Putting a heap of money into a car you love to keep it running is never a lost cause as long as it's not a frequently repeated repair. If you're putting a new trans in the thing every 30k miles then maybe you should consider driving something else. But regular wear and tear that naturally increases as the car ages, nah, if you love it, take care of it.

[@ErwinSchrodinger64]

My first love was Ferrari. However, when looking at history to the present day, Porsche, overall, has become my first love. Their racing heritage, the constant onslaught rivalry they've had with McLaren, Mercedes Benz, Ferrari, and so forth is nothing short of legendary. The driving oriented cars they've released with their GT-2 and GT-3 cars is nothing short of spectacular. Ferrari and Lamborghinis are the cars you like for their looks. Once you've matured, Porsche becomes the sophisticated tasted that you learn to appreciate.

[@nateisright]

Agree 100%.

[@zeblackboi]

[@NeXMaX]

Classic Porsches still look mighty great years later. I’d love one, specifically a 911S but they’re probably going to be über-expensive by the time I finally get the time to enjoy driving

[@hybridAbsol]

Vintage 911S can go as low as 50K , i wont call it expensive

[@griffins750]

Save up and go for an 80s sc, you can find them in and around 30-50k and with, granted, alot of work, they will last forever (that work is a problem with the engine that of which I cannot remember the exact name of however I know that it can cause your engine to need a complete tear down Fitment Industries did a video on aircooled 911s and they mentioned it there), that said, if you want the truest 911 experience possible that won't kill your wallet so long as you do preventative maintenance and buy one with a good service history there probably nothing better than the 80s sc.

[@squeakychairproductions6813]

Recently purchased a porsche 944 and live it! Would like to get an air cooled 911 some day! Very true about no such thing as a cheap porsche. Purchased my 944 and had the transmission go out 20 mins after buying it... 7k later she is pretty solid now. Its the price you pay though to drive around in a vintage Porsche and I love it.

[@nls8520]

Porsche to me is a marque that once you get bitten you really fall in love with their cars, until that happens you might not "get" what is so special. They have such a rich history and also prove their worth on the race track, its a rare combination. While they branched out to other vehicle concepts to stay economically viable they are always about their sports cars/racing in the end.

[@midnightfuture]

There is no particular virtue in an air-cooled engine. What is being sold here is romance, which is perfectly fine if you're buying. "Enthusiasts" arbitrarily select the parts of automotive technological advancement they wish to subscribe to, then invent stories to rationalize their preferences. I've never seen a comment on KZbin or car site forums/comments calling for bringing back the manual starter crank because it's a "more authentic motoring experience." LOL. Fuel injection is 100,000% better than a carburetor. If I buy an older car, I'll mostly embrace the technology it was fitted with at the time of its manufacture. If I'm buying a new car, i want it water-cooled, hermetically sealed, automatic transmission, power-everything. I love cars, and I can appreciate every point in the range. Enjoy what you drive-drive what you enjoy-and don't let anyone make you feel "unwashed" because you don't venerate the same things.

Why would you feel sorry for him? That's his fucking job. That's how he makes money. If there weren't those people, he would be fixing Prius.

[@ShootAUT]

Jeff Lio That's one way to look at it. But if you have a real passion for something it just hurts to see someone buy one of those without even knowing what it is, let alone appreciating it. It's just another car to them, and they only buy it because other people find it cool. It will either get wrecked, because they don't care about it, or locked away and not be driven at all to increase value, because they don't care about it.

[@ShootAUT]

Donut Media I know, sorry. You made it very clear in the video that you don't know anything about Porsche. And it's ok to ask questions. It's just...that...it hurts sometimes. 😁 When you know a thing or two about Porsche, and have been a fan of the brand for years, such beginner level questions from a car enthusiast are baffling. No hard feelings, though. 🤘

Porsche was for a while the people's affordable super car. But not anymore, gone are the days where you could get a G model or even a 964 for around 15 grand. Porsche nowadays is slowly going from the people's car to the elite's car, like Ferrari or Lamborghini. A 200.000 mile 964 Carrera 2 is now 50 grand, that's out of reach for most enthusiasts.

[@mateuszzimon8216]

[@Octopus502]

Bunch of those around, just google it mate. Just try searching Käfer Carrera and Super Beetle.

[@michaelczesnozki1671]

You can get it the other way around. The 912 had literally everything except motor and transmission from a 911. So to make a budget 911 to gain interest in the US, seen as the 911 was there only car and expensive, they released the 912. It was the same body, suspension, interior, etc. but the cut costs, slapped in a 1.6l air cooled flat 4 out of a VW and early Porsche 356 with transmission and slashed the cost. It made only 102 horsepower. It outsold the 911 by nearly 100%. It was discontinued after the 911 took off. The 911 remained their only car for a few years until the 914. When they killed the 914, they brought back the 912 for 1976 with a 2.0l air cooled flat 4 out of a VW making a gigantic 88 horsepower. I’m not joking. 88 horses. It was then discontinued for 1977 and replaced with the war crime of a car the 924. Eventually it returned again as the Cayman 718, which was introduced in 2005. Despite not being rear engines like the 912 and 911, it was still heavily inspired by the 912, being a 911 Jr. Interestingly the 718 was a rear engined race car from the 50’s that had been retired for about 45 years when it returned.

Great video btw.

[@johnyoxley4715]

Sam yeah but if the car was never modified then all the different models and different years of porsche would be exactly the same and never change. But each to their own.

Odezy Beckhummice janior iv never heard of that but there are alot of unknown things about the yoshida special 930, the speed hunters article would probably tell you, but I highly doubt it was a turbo from an f1 car simply because street cars had better turbos available and f1 turbos are more complex and most f1 cars were naturally aspirated in the years it took to build it.

My father had several Porsches when I was growing up.....a 911, a 912, a Targa. Absolutely loved those cars. What I loved the most about them was the chrome trim, just added that extra little touch of class to that wonderfully understated classic body. Sounded like VW's for obvious reasons, always loved the feeling of solid traction in the rear....but then that edge of flying off dangerously into space in a tight turn. If I was into acquiring classic cars, I'd definitely start with a 70's 911 Targa.

[@ZDY66666]

We love it for the sound, playful rear end, the rawness of a car designed in older pure car design philosophies, such as very connected steering feel, playful chassis, oil smells, hearing every mechanical part, feeling one with the car and being connected with it. We love the charisma of the car, the fashionable looks, also the nostalgia. The older air cooled cars also reminds us of how car design philosophies and laws / norms have changed (to me for the worse, and I'd imagine for many driving enthusiasts as well). Cars are soft, big, easy, heavy, and becoming less and less playful. The air-cooled 911s screams an era of the past and defies all such boring philosophies and reminds us what driving should be all about. PS It is NOT for picking up chicks. As matter of fact, the interior carpets smell like shit and reminds you of your old grandma's piss bucket crib with big old red carpet smells (oh...Just my grandma?)

Few nowadays are raced. Collect is true. Maintain...They are reliable but is wouldn't say we LOVE to maintain then necessarily. They are unique mechanical pieces.

[@fukkinkana]

ZDY probably not even old enough to get their license.

[@hybridAbsol]

Im old enough to drive , and i driven a few before , they arent tricky to drive fast , till today im still hoping to drive Singer and Bisimoto Porsches

[@michaelharvey8021]

Very informative commercial guys. Like most of your episodes now. Got to do what ya gotta do. I remain subscribed.

[@HeidiandFranny]

Because they are entertaining! Drove the 993 to work yesterday and got to listen to that great sound in the back and experience that amazing 993 ride. The car is a companion, not some dead machine you can't feel, or hear. Don't get me started on the 356... If I was only allowed one possession in the world it would be our '58 356A Cab. It is that profound.

[@jmgz_]

Kind of like the old carrera GT

[@ubayyd]

Let's see what "people" have to say about the Porsche Mission E Taycan Cross Tourismo!

[@thomas_nl_]

The Taycan looks pretty good

[@hybridAbsol]

I rather have a pet Toucan instead

[@OwenBuckingham11]

From the first day I saw the 911's shape I was in love, it's a dream to own one some day. Just a great example of beautiful German engineering.

[@shouryaparashar6920]

Interviews like this are awesome keep doing it more often.

[@ShumaBot]

"Porsches are reliable" * Spends 10 minutes explaining the need for constant maintenance and expense*

[@roachstj1]

Most reliable brand out there

[@Dzonssi]

@@roachstj1 Most reliable German brand*

[@TimothyCow23]

I don't think Jeremy likes beetles...

[@hybridAbsol]

Cuz he kept losing to it

[@aquateen77723]

Great episode guys! More shop talk segments would be awesome!

[@RabbitArms]

Bit late to the video but honestly Porsche’s just hold a special place in Lotta people’s hearts. For me it was the first nice sports car my father ever brought home, I remember him letting me take out my girlfriend in the car and everywhere we go “I love the car, nice ride” ect. It’s elegant, sleek, fast, but it’s not a huge attention grabber. It’s that quite kid in the room who you don’t know is secretly the #1 boxing champ in state. Prior to driving a Porsche I never found the appeal to them, but after experiencing everything these cars stand for, I’m obsessed. And can’t see myself owning any other sport cars as long as I’d gladly own a 911.

[@christophersantiago5327]

They forgot about the 944’s 968’s and 928’s?

[@alexstromberg7696]

aren't those Porsches for people who don't like Porsche? Like why would you get a Porsche that isn't rear engine?

[@alexstromberg7696]

just get a real one.

[@hybridAbsol]

944s are basically a german RX7 928s had too many electrical problems , fed up with them yrs ago

[@maxs0294]

Alex Strömberg Well "real ones" cost min. 30k for a SC in shitty condition. A 924 (which still is a very classy and good looking car in my opinion) costs 5k for one with a few flaws and 10-15k for one thats A+.

[@alexstromberg7696]

and? costs to be on top.

[@deathraydave]

Me with crown vics

[@Achilandia]

Love the shop visits guys. Let's get more of these happening

[@EliteJovenAgent]

I love it how John's passion with Porsches just overflows every time he speaks.

[@MichaelDavis-cy4ok]

I love to hear people talk about the things they are both knowledgeable and passionate about. Even if it's not what I'm into, it's always educational and engaging.

[@dudley7540]

Porsche knowledge lacking? Could we have a tour of the cave you've been living in?

[@DarkIzo]

porch porsche

[@jgripen969]

DarkIzo It’s pronounced Porsche, not Porch. It’s German not French.

[@ogmudbone2334]

Porsh-a

[@DarkIzo]

J Gripen saw that no one mentioned it so i had to spark this conversation ps: im german

[@jgripen969]

DarkIzo Yea, it wasn’t angled towards you. I was sort of agreeing with you ;) We never pronounce it like ”Porch” in Sweden, we know the car comes from our brothers in the south hahah

[@axial27]

J Gripen Porsch is just short for Porsche, so people dont have to use two syllables.

[@enoc2432]

Great video man, hope to see one on Dinan soon. Keep up the great work!!!

[@JmanOver90000]

4:00 - 4:38 is the exact reason i want to drive a manuel, collect records and want to own super old wild cars. I have never had it said into words more exact then these right here and he is so right!

[@RgW00D]

Visit Singer next.

[@hybridAbsol]

300K Porsche 911S is a bit too much

[@rengoku8852]

Wow 1 Dislike, That person havent even finished the whole vid

[@edwinmedina4338]

Axlerated Z must've been that one person that wanted an LS on the Porche 🤣

[@codingmorrison7957]

Quality content, keep going at it!

[@TheOnlyZpet]

One of the best videos from Donut yet

[@zulkiflipaul7887]

The porsche is meant to be the best sports car ever (in my opinoin)

[@felixli4306]

Azra 02 uve got the point..... "Meant to be"

[@trance9158]

And it is.

[@payamyazdi7672]

why people love Porsche?they are Chick magnets

[@broja4387]

if you're driving an air cooled you're going to have a bunch of middle aged men interested and not a lot of chicks, my dude haha

[@tribeking84]

Payam yazdi cringe

[@hybridAbsol]

*MID LIFE CRISIS*

[@mikest667]

When you drive one, you'll know... It'll just click.

[@ZDY66666]

L O Fucking L. That is not on the list as a reason for 100% air cool drivers.

[@justindtackett]

Always good stuff from Donut

[@lennyde2878]

This video was really nice I would love to see more of these style of videos.

[@erickcazares7592]

That’s my dad

[@Mr6Sinner]

Not sure I enjoy the big words flashing across the screen every few seconds.

[@project_bluescream7767]

Uriah Siner You must be new to Donut media...

[@KITTER298]

Really just terrible and awful. Really distracts from the content.

[@dr.mahfuzaalamchaklader6403]

Hmm... I disagree. That's their style. But opinions :)

[@RealNameNeverUsed]

Tbh, I didn't even realized they were texts until I read your conment. Sub-conscious mind at work huh?

[@ilya.b]

Yep. And that was my first and LAST video I watched from them, only because of those flashing words across the middle of a shot. Thanks, no more.

[@derkasehasser2132]

more interviews! really enjoyed this one

[@martinlavare1938]

Nice job! I liked this interview..

[@dna129]

I had to reread the title, thought it said White People Love Porsche

[@mattm8642]

Black humour, lol

[@lucazevedo46]

[@vench112]

Great episode. I will definitely watch more like this if you make them.

[@ejwall]

Love it! More shops! Love the local feel!

For me in late 2016, I was learning about wide bodies and throw a forum I learnt about nakai

[@DiegoGarcia-sp2ln]

Wheelhouse has grown so much and it’s one of my favorite series form donut

[@lotusraptos]

2:00 Daimler is not pronounced Damler. It's pronounced like Dime-ler, like a dime if you need more reference. Not pronounced DAM-ler, not DAME-ler, DIME-ler. But this channel also pronounces kei cars as key cars, so it's like talking to a brick wall.

[@SupaFly1238]

LotusRaptos ok

[@rocketn8]

Dame-ler

[@imacfrye3372]

LS swap the Porsche

[@minoassal]

There is an LS swapped Porsche somewhere, its wrong on so many levels

[@vuriby]

How to ruin a Porsche

[@johnyoxley4715]

How about no.

[@anthonygalon8981]

No not literally everything thats criminal and LS is only for tuner

[@brodiebramwell-johnson4779]

there is an ls swapped 996 Carrera. Supposedly it was the cheapest 991 in all of America ahhahah. And I know there is an rwb 964 that was LS swapped

[@1cdelay]

Good questions. Very insightful guys. Top 10 episode for me.

[@ginder77]

I love the last part the guy said! He is right on point about not cheaping out. Do it the right way instead of the cheap way.
