This car really took me back to the 80’s, looking with wonder in magazines at Koenig Ferraris, Tresser Audi Quattro’s and DP Porsche specials. Great video and lovely to see and hear the enthusiasm of the cars owner.
I’m gonna have to look up Tresser Audi’s and DP Porsche. I have this photo of a mechanic from Kremer, and he is working on the engine which has these insane Ram air ducts for the intake.. twin turbo of course…so, it has this serious metal frame that is added onto the rear frame of the car, and it has those round (pin receivers?) donut shaped pucks… for the massive rear wing and body rest on. I think they were saying that the GT3 RS wing can put down close to 1,2000 lbs of downforce. Story is… they drove that car to the race.. won, and drove it back to Kremer headquarters. Crazy
Tanks to Magnus W. to watch the amazing find & footage this unique rare car but Julian i really have to tank you too buddy.. 🍺🍺🍺 for remind me some of the old crazy tuners from 70'-80' that i really forgot about and i'm European BTW..
@@poplaurentiu4148 Thanks for the kind comment. As a teenager I was hooked on a magazine called Top Cars (I think) which featured high end modified cars. I wish I still had a few copies today to reminisce.
@@julianadams2206 Back in 1990-2000 was not too many things to watch like now Netflix, so we use to rent video-tapes with imported old movies.. So in weekends we invite best friends or watch with my family them movies like Police Academy series, Bundy-family, and sometimes cop chase movies like : Mad-Max 1/2, Bullit, Taxi, Autobahn-cops, and we find a german movie called : Manta-Manta, where many teenagers that were doing street racing, each-other in a Fast & Furious style with wide-body modified cars like Opel Manta, BMW's, Mercedes, Fords.. etc the Manta & Ascona bodies i think they were widen by Konig Special or Fritz Lexmaul, and performance tuned by Irmscher or Zenner, Volkswagen Golf GTi tuned by Wochner and Mk1,2 Scirrocco & Corrado tuned by Rieger & Vortex.. and after 2008 in Austria we gather all auto enthusiasts friends each year and went to Worthesse show was just like Sema auto-show but outside on city streets not indoor.. He He, what crazy times we had back then.
So much synthwave here! Always loved the slandnose, forgot about this Rinspeed, till I just found this channel. Spent my teens and some of my twenties in the 80s and still love the 80s exotics. Porches, Testa Rossa, Vector, and Slantnose and.... more Porsches!
I often wonder what happened to all those custom Porsches, Ferraris and Mercedes from that era. Great to see one survived. What a lovely chap the Porsche guy is - you make a good double act :)
@@hugovel2717 I used to go to Germany every year in the 80s. Car magazines were full of ads from AMG, Koenig, Rinspeed, DP, Strosek… there must have been quite a few about. But they were probably the first to get forgotten about as the fashion changed - and perhaps didn’t last as well as the stock cars.
@@StefanMarjoram I remember seeing an old WasabiCars video out of Japan, where he visited a local graveyard and it was full of old Alpina BMWs. A lot of times, the owner gives them up/abandons them, they get shuttered in a lot and time moves on.
OPP - this is the second or third show i've watched , and i appreciate the brutely honest critiquing of the DRIVE , then the styling "inside and out" it's as close to experiencing the car and not having the opportunity yourself ✌
Boy this one takes me back to my youth in the 80s! That car was wayyyy ahead of anything on the roads that decade! And still badass today!👌😎👍great video Magnus!
was it? it doesnt have much road comfort as most sport cars/porsche. i drove a few of them, its fun but way ahead of their time? no they werent. the mercedes w116 or audi 100 1982 or w124 and so on they were their time far ahead.
Great episode ! Ive never seen a Rinspeed 930 before, definitely a love or hate thing, like most people I googled 911 Rinspeed 930 for sale to see what's out there & there's a few of them, one with only 10,000 miles on the clock !!
I love 80's European sports cars. Especially the 80's tuner cars. I'm a big fan of Rinspeed. As they have made some very wild cars. There's a guy in my city who has a red Porsche Cayane SUV with black Rinspeed wheels. I also love the green Porsche 928. Very cool video. Thank you.
Thx for the share MW! 80's was the era for a lot of gr8 cars.....back in the day hearing an air cooled 911 was heaven....Ford Capri 2.8 was strong, Peugeot 205's, GTi's, XR4's and even 2's were like wow cars.
Every episode is epic. Thanks for showcasing the best sports cars ever. Please update us on your 928 and show it running through the canyons in the day. Thanks! 👍
928 used an aluminum alloy V8 that weighed more than a cast iron SBC 350 and wiring that literally fell apart in your hand. Just two of many reasons to avoid that platform. There’s a reason the 911 series is considered the real Porsche.
I knew a mechanic in Greensboro who work specifically on two of these in the early 2000s. Id love to meet up with him again he was like a total opposite of yourself. Car world is the best place to meet people.
It looks like something I dreamed of as a toddler in the early 90's. If you giys ever saw "The Velveteen Rabbit" you'd understand. The slant-nose look is a look I'll always love.
I’ve been into Porsches since the early ’80s and even saw a couple early 959s when I toured the 911 factory in ‘87. I have never even heard of this car.
early 90's in the UK I saw one of these twice, about 1990-91. Same colour, was being driven first time, second time was in a showroom, I forget how much for though!
Hey Magnus. I live in Switzerland snd I also have a Rinspeed Porsche 911. Its a one off. I inherited that Porsche from my grandfather. Its the first thing I can remember as a child
Same goes for the e9x m3. You wanna be in 2nd, but you have to grab 1st and get into the revs, especially uphill thru tight switchbacks. Gotta get used to ringing it out to be on the power! 😝
Your one of my hero’s I can’t wait until Iam able to store air cooled cars would now but I want a bigger garage before I take it to the next level definitely ready just has to be the proper setup to own these type of cars I don’t live above my means of living
My mate owned the one that is for sale in the UK, he sold it two years ago for £35k (we are in the North), I has been given a light resto, and is now for sale at £120k in London... My mates was rather Sick, I have just tweeted you some picks of it
I love the weird looks. Have to say I agree that you should never have to downshift to first on the roll. Ever. First is for initial acceleration only.

Don't forget about the insane builds from Gemballa. Some of them were really cool. (some of them, not so much 😄)
The Porsche slant nose is iconic 80's.
Used to see them here and there, growing up in the Bay Area in Cali.
with emphasis on i con///
The Connection between the two is so authentic

Hey Magnus. Great car. Everything cool except the sound levels 👍 couldn't hear you well at times.
You’re supposed to be wearing earbuds listening to these videos anyway.
@@TheKitchenTechnician Do ear buds improve the sound over headphones?
@@twcmakerno. Sounds like they are using the on camera microphone and that’s just not going to cut it in a car. Lapel mics are the only way.
I want to hear the talking, and the car sounds, should make cuts to be 1, then the other, then back to the other so theyre seperated
The audio was definitely funky
I often wonder what happened to all those custom Porsches, Ferraris and Mercedes from that era. Great to see one survived. What a lovely chap the Porsche guy is - you make a good double act :)
Most were made for the sultan of Brunai and his brother. Look it up, total insanity.

Exactly! He tells it like it is, because he loves Porsches

Magnus looks like he’s been transported in a Time Machine from the 1700s to the 1980s driving this beast 😂😂
I think I met Magnus at Harley Davidson of San Francisco.
Really trying hard to look as someone that doesn’t care about his look
@@drewbase😂 haha look for Zeus on RUclips. He's the definition of what you said

Absolutely wonderful
Thank you so much for this.
I drooled all over my copy of VW & Porsche Magazine coverage of this car back in the day.
Only Magnus can have the kind of access to walk into a museum and drive out with a sick Porsche haha
Every episode is epic. Thanks for showcasing the best sports cars ever. Please update us on your 928 and show it running through the canyons in the day. Thanks! 👍
Yes, please!!
928 used an aluminum alloy V8 that weighed more than a cast iron SBC 350 and wiring that literally fell apart in your hand. Just two of many reasons to avoid that platform. There’s a reason the 911 series is considered the real Porsche.
The two gentlemen standing together is like having Magnus looking at his younger self and visa-versa. 😅
I knew a mechanic in Greensboro who work specifically on two of these in the early 2000s. Id love to meet up with him again he was like a total opposite of yourself. Car world is the best place to meet people.
Bloody thoroughly enjoyed watching you both 👏
the davy crocket hat really makes the episode !!
Great video. Great owner and great car. Well done lads
Piece of art...straight out of a 80's video game
Love that sound system!
Absolutely that qualifies as coach built. Simply artwork.
It looks like something I dreamed of as a toddler in the early 90's. If you giys ever saw "The Velveteen Rabbit" you'd understand. The slant-nose look is a look I'll always love.
Engaging content, supreme production. Instant sub.
He reminds me of Gandalf as a Porsche lover in a different era with all of his original charms/wisdom 😎
A timeless beauty!
I am SO down with the OPP series. Well done!
I absolutely LOVE IT!
the testarossa-style work on the side is the only thing I'm not absolutely feeling about the car. love the rear.
I absolutely love the excess of 80s and 90s supercar designs.
Keep up the great vids, great seeing you at SEMA
Don't even know what amassed me more, the car or that man's hair))
Crazy. Sold in Aug 2021 for $235k 😱
The slantnose has always been my favorite Porche body style.
New OPP, love it!!!🔥
I’ve been into Porsches since the early ’80s and even saw a couple early 959s when I toured the 911 factory in ‘87. I have never even heard of this car.
I didn’t recognize Beau at first but as soon as he started speaking I recognized him from GAS and pimp my ride.
Would love to see a Gambala Avalanche Magnus. You know the one with the tv camera rear mirrors and outragious rear wing. Even more 80's excess.
I love the challenge of driving with tall gears and turbo lag. You really have to plan ahead but the result is so exciting when you get it right.
Magnus is such a legend.
This whole video is just amazing! Hes a Walker as in Paul Walker who also loved Porsche! Both were from Santa Clarita CA! Wow
early 90's in the UK I saw one of these twice, about 1990-91. Same colour, was being driven first time, second time was in a showroom, I forget how much for though!
Amazing! Just amazing! After you got him to let his hair loose, the video was a wrap🎉🎉
Great video! Love this car
yea bro you rock. perro loco x here the rapper from spain/russia
Hey Magnus. I live in Switzerland snd I also have a Rinspeed Porsche 911. Its a one off. I inherited that Porsche from my grandfather. Its the first thing I can remember as a child
928 koenig please. your content is fantastic! thank you sir
That's a cool looking Porsche
A thing of beauty!
Superb car, super oldskool vibe.
Been wondering if you’d put out a new video. Nice!
Sisters husband was a Porsche dealer mechanic. Porches have always been my favorite.
Same goes for the e9x m3. You wanna be in 2nd, but you have to grab 1st and get into the revs, especially uphill thru tight switchbacks. Gotta get used to ringing it out to be on the power! 😝
You forgot to mention the most 80’s part of them all…. The storage for the cassette player tapes under the 80’s stereo 👍😁
My god that rear-end reminds me of the Sidewinder in Top Gear.
He looks like a much younger Ozzy Osbourne! I remember the Rinspeed in the old VW & Porsche magazines and Eurocar magazine.
That man has amazing hair, I loved that part when he asked him to let it down, really motivated me to keep growing my hair!
Is he famous?
NSX - I'm getting that vibe with the front.
That guy with Magnus is Beau Boeckmann (Pimp my ride) for those who are wondering.
Surprised that this was in my hometown SCV. Beautiful cars!
Those gotti wheels....Drooling
That Porsche dealership needs a Gembella Porsche accompany for the Rinspeed 😉
Your one of my hero’s I can’t wait until Iam able to store air cooled cars would now but I want a bigger garage before I take it to the next level definitely ready just has to be the proper setup to own these type of cars I don’t live above my means of living
Very cool car. I was a huge fan of the Porsche Gembala RSR. I haven't seen one in like 30 years. Wonder if any still exist?
Hey Magnus! Finnegan Fox fell asleep on your head 😁. Great video as allways
My mate owned the one that is for sale in the UK, he sold it two years ago for £35k (we are in the North), I has been given a light resto, and is now for sale at £120k in London... My mates was rather Sick, I have just tweeted you some picks of it
Magnifico! Da ar de ter um toque de group B rally
Anybody else think that was Rob Zombie at first? Lol. That's a compliment brother, Rob Zombie is the fkn man! 👌
I'm not gonna lie, the headlight *click* a 1:10 sounds almost exactly like the *click* from Minecraft 😂
What a cool dealer!!!!
Interesting car, sound recording could use help in places. In-car dialog is muffled, and we really want to hear the car.
He's so meta he's using sound equipment from the year the porsche was built
So...essentially it's a go-no-go commitment...Nice!
Love when owners are "F-You...
My car...My Experience"..
Please Do More of These 👊
Amazing and very,very nice....!!!!!!
love it
Driving a Porsche in the US is like taking a Marshall stack to an acoustic gig !
Great PorschStarossa !
Oh!! I remember these!! They made some in dark colors… a maroon one.. a purple one …
Love your Jordan’s Magnus! Tell us about those!
969 is awesome ❤ but it's always been the Rinspeed 939 for me ❤❤❤ ever since the poster on my wall from the 1980s 😃👍
❤ Toyota Corolla GR❤
This is The Wolf of Wall Street to me. Beautiful Porsche
Nice man nice car
I love the weird looks. Have to say I agree that you should never have to downshift to first on the roll. Ever. First is for initial acceleration only.
Rob Zombie's British uncle is always a treat to watch! 😅
Sweet car,I had posters of one of these,and books with things like b+b and dage Porsches,and koenig Ferraris
The design may have its flaws but i gotta say is one of the prettiest back i've ever seen in car history
Legend ❤
That's one cool car!!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful 🥰🥰
great car
Looks quite like the Gemballa slantnose 911s with these 512 Testarossa sideinlets. Very eighties, Koenig did the same with a 500sec
Nice
Really different!
beauty
when your dreams to be a rock star didn’t materialise by middle-age - there will always be toys.
❤ it!
When someone want to build a Ferrari Testarossa but he has got only a Porsche at the barn
Love the hat!
Gunther Werks and Ruf should be next in the collection
Love the electro tunes on the intro. Who is it?
