  • Talks about the shift in Porsche making the 911 much more unobtainable (special editions, GT cars, etc.) and prioritizing exclusivity over getting cars in the hands of drivers. A shame really if you ask me, but profits drive business and low volume sports cars aren’t easy to make money on. Thankfully there is the Porsche used market that’s much more accessible as long as you aren’t after some unicorn like the 918.

    Maybe you just didn’t know OP but its been like that for awhile. Maybe im not old enough but getting a GT3 or a limited edition Porsche was always near impossible. It was like buying a Rolex where you had to have business with the dealership to be even considered to get an allocation




  • Thats pretty cringe tbh. I honestly can’t stand people like that. Its common among alot of influencers across all hobbies and activities. So many dudes are insecure and overcompensate. Never saw him as someone who was experienced at the track, just a guy who likes those really weird cars.

    I feel like within the car community people resort to track driving as the ultimate way to experience a car and that your opinion is invalidated unless you have track driving experience. The fact that he bragged about tracking his Ford GT and his Carrera is hilarious becuase nobody in their right mind would track those cars and really push them hard.



  • Lol nobody tracks those cars. They aren’t good cars to track because they are so old and valuable, that it simply doesn’t make sense even if you have stupid money. He probably just pushed it hard one lap and called it a day lol. The people that track those cars do them in sanctioned events like how people will race the old classic Ferraris. You’ll never see a Ford GT on an open track day lol.
