    What a great decision to not have a musical soundtrack and let the engine provide the soundtrack for the entire video. Absolutely fantastic!

    EXACTLY! While all of it is very appreciable, it almost feels like that some cars are being made to be museum pieces than cars deserving to be driven anytime you wish.

    I was lucky to come to Worskhop 5001 and got little tour from owner. It is really nice shop. You can feel quality as soon as you enter in. Shop is organized and extremely clean. One thing I got that 5001 builds Porsche for quality, real stuff and not just for looks. Most of us may not be able to afford it, but it's so far best repair facility I have seen.

    The 73 for me seems when the 911 really came into it's own. It's the best expression of this car. Before was still growing and everything after was well, just a little too much but 1973 was the fully fleshed out, completely mature Porsche 911. The best 70's car there is.

  • @DriversSide
    @DriversSide Před 7 lety +1

    • @lemonpaper
      @lemonpaper Před 7 lety +62

      Many reasons. Emissions kills the air-cooled, pedestrian and passenger safety kills the beauty and lightweighting, and customers demand reliability meaning development costs which would ruin the budget price tag. Closest things to what you're asking for new are Miatas and GT-86s, but there are plenty of affordable used cars that should also come close.

    • @DeathBringer769
      @DeathBringer769 Před 7 lety +2

      It's funny. I've heard people use the term "wheel" to mean either the tire or the rim. It seems like it should only mean one of them, but whatever, you can't control how people use words.

    @AndrewNguyenOfficial Před 7 lety +11

    If the Singer 911 is considered over-the-top, and the next best step is this, then guess what? A few years down the road, journalists and consumers will progress the next step of "less modified" stage. This whole chase of creating an old-feeling 911, without being an old 911, will inevitably just end up where people are restoring 911's as a standard. The journalists will be raving about those when that comes (and consider this car's level of modification as "too much" as they refer to Singer cars now). Mark my words.

      Singer is the ultimate Porsche 911, they use all the best that the human race can provide for the model. This is something completely different, you can beat the shit out of it with zero remorse.

    • @v_alexiadis
      @v_alexiadis Před 7 lety

      I'm not sure about that. It's a $400,000 car. I think it's just a different take on restoring a Porsche.

    • @JCW80
      @JCW80 Před 7 lety +1

      Wow, $400k... Yeah, I was hoping it would be less than the Singer price point, since it's more of a tuned, restored classic, vs Singer's approach. Not that it matters for me...even if it was a 1/4 the cost of a Singer, it'd still be out of my range. I can still appreciate the $#!# out of it though! Good stuff!

      @TeslasSecret Před 7 lety +2

      Mo-hammad Abunaser A difference in philosophy I guess. Despite my tremendous admiration for what Singer does, it is very much a group of people's own idea of what a super-911 should be. I can understand why someone would prefer something simpler and, perhaps more importantly, closer to what 911s were in the first place.
      What I'd be interested to know is the price difference, though.

Right now Singer makes them the best so leave them alone and focus on other cars and models!!! Like why does nobody make Audi Quattro projects or idk old M cars projects or... just something other than a 911!! I mean I love the 911 and if I could I want to have one but give other legends some appreciation!!!
