Having had 6 Porsche cars of varying years over a 25 year period, I got the urge to fulfill my longtime desire for a 2020 Mustang GT with Performance Option 1, 460 HP, monster front Brembo front calipers, and the sport exhaust. Took a test ride and the exhaust note sold the deal. It had the 10 speed automatic as well. Slapped on a set of high performance brake pads, track tires and wheels, added Motul brake fluid and off to the track I went. The handling of the car was awesome, little to no roll in the corners, legible pitch on braking, and the braking seemed more than adequate for a 3,750 Lb. car. But sadly, after about 5 laps a diff overheat warning would pop up on the dash, and it would overheat and go into the reduced power mode, unacceptable...it seems the exhaust pipes, passed too close to the diff was the culprit. I also discovered the rear brakes were inadequate will me going through a set of rear pads in a track weekend. The rear calipers and pads were too small for the weight of the car under track conditions, and to complicate the matter, I was unable to locate high performance pads. All of this could had been avoided if I was was willing to spend an additional $25,000 and had bought a 2020 Shelby Mustang 350. Eventually, read 3 months, I sold the 2020 Mustang GT and bough a 2013 991.1 Carrera S, sadly lacking Sport Chrono on its PDK. I really wanted the Sport Chrono Sport + Mode, but at that time, 991.1 PDK with Sport Chrono were on sales hold from Porsche.....about 10 months later, I found a 2017 Porsche Carrera GTS, and that's where I am now. In my opinion, with 450 HP, 405 ft. lb. of torque and monster Brembo brakes front and rear, Sports Suspension, state of the art creature comforts...this is the perfect car, and it has PDK with Sport Chrono, with Normal, Sport and Sport + modes. I am keeping this car: It's flawless in my opinion, and wide body too. And by the way, 0 - 60 MPH in. 3.5 seconds, and the top speed? You don't want to know.
Amazing journey. Congrats on the 911 GTS. You get the full 450hp in a refined form. The mustang is just brute force and lack refinement. But the sound as you say is glorious 😃🙌
Have you driven a GT350? That might put you right back into that Mustang seat. Its GLORIOUS
I just got a 991.2 gts and very happy to hear this. I considered many variations but ultimately wanted something more modern and with a back seat. I opted for a manual and plan on adding a numeric short shifter. Congrats !
One of the nicest 991.2 builds I've seen in a while 👏
💯💯 agree with that. The owner has since upgraded the car 😃🙌
@@thedevthing I saw he went with a 992.
Didn't even know this was premiering today 😮 Amazing car and another awesome video! Heavy CG promotion 😅
We announced it and 7hrs later we went live. Could not wait a whole 24hrs for this one. 😂
CG commercial in the making 😂😃
Really enjoying your content. Very well done. Good job sir, from a fellow Ontario car guy!
Thank you 😃🙌🙏 appreciate the support
your cinematography is incredible. well done!
Thankyou, I appreciate that 😃🙌🙏
Prabhul ….. your videography is top notch and the music blends very smoothly. Well done! I too have trodden the same path as Richard. There is logic to this path. I own a Dodge Challenger SRT8 and a Porsche Carrera - both have been owned for many years. They are very different cars that appeal to me on different occasions. On some drives a hammer is the perfect implement and on other drives a scalpel is the perfect choice. Each has a purpose and each has its time. I enjoy having the choice. Cheers from Round Rock, Texas.
Thank you for the feedback and support.
Love that you have both types of rides. The v8 rumble is so addictive. 🙌😃
I did it . I went from a C8 Corvette Stingray to a 2020 911 C2 . Loving the Porsche for sure !
Amazing, congrats on the 911 😃🙌
Enjoy the ride. Good for you.
Super interesting story and well put together!
Thank you, appreciate you watching
Awesome, Prabhul! Congrats, Richard!! Beautiful Porsche. I noticed it in Megans (spelling?), video. Your 'Stang was killer too. Thanks for the great entertainment and edu.
Thank you for the support 🙌🙏😃
Thank you! Both cars are awesome!
Love your videos, these Porsches are bloody lovely.
Thank you, I appreciate the support 🙏🙌😃
Porsche videos are back. Thanks !!!
Hey, you are back 😂🙌😃
Porsche video's = I'm back !!!😁
Lovely car.
Base Carrera 991.2 can be tuned safely to nearly 550 without any parts swaps by the right people (Lichfield)
That’s amazing 😃🙌
Even at stock hp 370, it’s a fun ride. More hp is a bonus, always! 😂
Fantastic interview, and video, and amazing coincidence: I bought a 2020 Mustang GT when Covid started, got a great deal and heavily modded it, very much enjoyed it with a full Borla exhaust and manual transmission. About a year ago I sold it when the used car market was going crazy, and got most of my money back. Three months ago a friend was selling his 997.2 and buying a 991.2, and offered to sell it to me. so I bought the 997. I can honestly say as Richard did almost exactly, i miss the sound of the 5.0 V8, but the 911 is better in almost every other way. I enjoy the 997, but a 991 would have been great also. My only complaint about the 997.2 is the DPI made them too quiet, and getting any sound from the exhaust is challenging. Even with the Sharkwerks muffler delete and Fister modded mufflers, (which are excellent by the way, highly recommend them), the car is still too quiet. My next mod is going to be headers I think, but just trying to figure out how to do them in the USA and be able to register it. Really like Richards 991.2, beautiful car. You guys are lucky in Canada, seems to be easy to Mod cars there and not have to worry about it, tunes and headers included. Keep up the great content and videos, Richard and his wife are a great couple, cool they can spend quality time enjoying their cars together….😊
Appreciate you sharing your story. It’s awesome to see you take a similar path. The 997.2 is a keeper I would say. 🙌😃
Great story, very similar to mine. You’re very lucky to have found a 997. It’s so fun to be able to chat about these cars.
Such a cool dude, I wanna be like Richard when I grow up
💯💯🙌😃
Thanks Jeff! I thought you were older then me?
Really cool!
🙌🙏😃
Great story! very cool
🙌😃🙏
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it!
I should be working right now - but I'm watching this. Priorities.
😂 breaks are good for productivity 💪😃🙌
the 991.2 looks simply beautiful.
💯💯🙌😃
Thank you. Don’t all Porsches? Lol
@@richardcoulas5005 good point. Personally I think all Porsches look amazing (except maybe the Panamera) but some don’t like the 992.
Very good video. I have wanted a 911 since I saw the 911 RS 2.7. After a lot a searching got a low mileage '19 911 GTS in GT Silver with full leather contrast stitched interior. The build quality and performance is amazing. Handling is very good with 2WD and rear steer. Plan on it to be my fleet a very long time.
Amazing… congrats on your 911 😃🙌
Hopefully one day you'll interview me and my Porsche 911.
Where you located?
@@thedevthing Maryland
@@thedevthinglet’s go to Maryland!
My story could be similar. I'm driving a C6 Callaway Corvette Convertible, but I can't get the 911 out of my head. As much as I love the Vette, the 911, I feel, is the is the ultimate performance car!
🙌😃 glad you can relate
Good for you, glad you’re enjoying it.
beautiful...Cool...
😃🙏🙌
This is such a clean build. Subtle, but yet effective. I have to commend the owner for going with silver finish on the wheels. Perfect with the color of the car. Plus I'm just tired of seeing black wheels that hide the design of the wheel.
💯 I am not a fan of black wheels. The owner has since upgrades his car and wheels also. I can’t wait to film it next 😃
Mine does not hide the wheel design, I have my stock wheels in high gloss black with red break calibers. I had them both powdered coated.
My car is the same color and the same year 2017 991.2 . I’m thinking about letting Flat6 in Florida modify it for me.
Another one!
🙌😃🙏
What a garage 😍
💯💯🙌
Thank you!
Great interview
991.2 carrera S has 420 stock not 370. Tune + exhaust+ air filter = 520 easy!!
Thank you for watching 😃🙌
These turbo 911s have so much potential 🙌
Can you share the side skirts part number or any info on where to purchase. Thank you much. Great content.
I keep saying to my wife one day I will have a 911 992 C4S. She keeps telling me, yeah ok. But I am deadly serious.
It’s doable. Just keep saying it till it’s a reality 😃🙌
We have faith in you. Keep going!!
911s are so special
💯😃🙌
I know it’s personal preference but I think if I bought an original 911, I would not modify it at all, especially tinkering with lowering springs to me that just decreases its value from originality. I have a BMW 335 and I did springs and Bill Steen, but as a refresh.
It’s what makes the modern world great. There is room for all kinds of car enthusiasts 😃🙌
Such a beautiful setup. Do you have the specs on the wheel size, and spacer setup?
I have requested the owner for the specs. 😃
Perfect .2, Specs on the BC's and tires please.
The wheels are 20 inch BC Forged KL 01 brushed clear on Michelins
Megan's car is nice
💯💯 check out the episode we did with her 😃
What front bumper is on that mustang? Looks like a gt500 but says GT 5.0 on the side
It’s an after market bumper. 😃🙌
Yes, it was a GT 500 front bumper and a Heat Exchanger hood from Cervini.
Awesome car! Are those 20 or 21s bc forge?
I believe they are staggered, 20s front and 21s at the back.
This car is now for sale by Richard 😃

muffler delete😂 where I live you almost get in jail for that😔
Time to relocate? 😂😂
@@thedevthing Sure, but then I watch a video from someone totally sober getting wrongfully arrested for DUI just because the cop lies about him ‚appearing‘ drunk and I‘m pretty happy with where I live again😂
@YeahSureSandwich well… now that makes me want to move 😂😂
Damn his wife got a nicer car
Agreed
