TJ we met at the dealership!! Thank you for being so genuine and coming to Long Island! Ryan Friedman is the man!!!
He was on Long Island and I missed him dammmm
Oh dang, that car is clean. I think he has had it for sale for a couple years.
Literally said “I’m not gonna buy one anytime soon” 😭
That’s the same thing as “I’m keeping it stock” it’s never true
IM TRYING OK
@tjhunt_ it's alright 😊
@@tjhunt_you do you kidd!
Lol thats literally Tj code for I purchased it off camera already 😂😂
I’ve had my 997 for almost 5 years. It’s been an incredible car to own. Tons of rallies, track days, and more…never had any issues and it’s been so fun to meet other Porsche owners. Such a good car, TJ! Get one, you won’t regret it.
Can we all agree that Kanes car with the white center lock wheels looks absolutely insane. That's a great combo.
That .2 Turbo S is amazing spec. The carbon ceramic brakes, the carbon sport seats, red gauges/Sport Chrono, extended leather dash/doors...
i wouldnt call the 997 slept on but the fact that people buy anything other than that at the price point is wild
I wish I knew more about them sooner. I for sure would have bought this over my R35
no doubt. My coworker bought his turbo S 2 years ago for $40k. 6spd maybe around 35k miles. Car was super clean other than solvent pop from a botched paint job.
@@tjhunt_the STIG from top gear this is his daily driver so it’s definitely a great car
@@tjhunt_ my boy has a 997.2 GT3 manual (not the RS) that he dailies and absolutely loves it. Could look into that.
@@kimdotnet8151salvage title? Or are you in Europe? Because no way a clean title turbo s manual (has to be a 996 not a 997 because the 997.2 turbo s was pdk only) with that low of a mileage sold that low
SOMEONE PLEASE STOP ME
Tie em down!!!
Sell 2-3 other cars. It’s not to expensive if you’re just making room for better cars.
Buy the Porsche

997 turbo s burns oil on startup
Get another damn Porsche already and put another cup body kit on!!! We ALL wanna see you do just that...
Just wanted to say keep doing what you’re doing. Love all of your content. I haven’t seen it in the comments yet but I’m surprised you haven’t built your own RWB. The 997 would be a perfect car to do it on. So much potential. And to get Nakai to come and do it would be soooooo sick.
Best RUclips channel ever you make my days better when I’m having a rough day I just turn the tv on and watch the boy TJ and his boys having fun thanks for being you 🙏🏽
Thanks for watching homie!
@@tjhunt_tj hunt replying!? What!?
hey tj been watching since i was 10 11ish i’m 19 now been watching since u started watched every video and will forever enjoy your hard work.. love the videos and keep moving forward 🤝🏼
Having owned a 997.2 Carrera PDK for two years and a 997.1 Turbo Manual for five years, back to back , there’s no competition, it’s the Turbo Manual all day long.
Im just going to say it, wee need more of these long 30 min formats chilly vloggy days, its just soooo fuun and relaxing too watch ngl🔥🔥
That clock on the dash will always be 12:00 lol. It's a lap timer 😂
this is a long video and i love it keep doing what you doing love you tj
Didn’t know people are still friends with Tommy lol
Cool vid T.J. I live in New England and was glad to hear you all appreciating the East Coast. Great time to be on East Coast. Have a great time 🤟
Thank you again for coming by! Next time you’ll have to come drive some cars. Hopefully see you and the crew at pebble!
The 997 is one of the best 911s Porsche made. Obviously the 991 is an amazing car but the 997 just hits different.
hey tj I'm the kid at the end of the video that wanted to fight your guy lol. I'm still serious about fighting him for a spot. It was pleasure meeting you man :)
I LOVE THAT DYLAN JUST APPEARS OUT OF NOWHERE IN THE VLOG 😂
Dylan waiting for you to say he was a 977 fan first was great 😂
Man I’m absolutely loving the Porsche content!
Awesome dude!! I have an obsession for porches myself lol
I once drove a 997.2 turbo pdk stage one and it was insane!!! I love 997,s and i'm saving up for one
I remember those 997 carrera s' used to be like 20-30k 🤣 the market is so crazy. Literally no one wanted those. I used to see them for like 17.5k even in like 2018
@@macbook802agreed
@@macbook802someone’s never driven a Porsche
Started a collection with my father around that time (end of ‘17 start of ‘18) with a 996 c2s in viola metallic, then a 2012 gts, and a few more 997.1, .2, and 996.1’s since then. Market went sooo crazy after the first two cars that we bought it was insane
You will not find a 997 camera S for $20k - $30k. They were never that cheap unless maybe salvaged. At one point, you could find 997.1 Camera Cab tiptronic (least desirable spec) with high miles in that price range.
@@CarFanaticI purchased my near mint condition clean title 997.1 turbo for $42k out the door in 2019
997's imo need the 991 steering wheel. Suits it perfect aswell.
That street triple 765 wanting to race was awesome 25:51
love the turbo s but really prefer the 997.1 turbo in manual
I used to love Porsche! This video made me fall in love with Porsche all over again. Thank you good sir! 🥹😍
As a owner of a 991.2 3rs I really enjoy driving the gt3rs on any road, even to just get groceries its always a fun drive. I dont know what yall are talking abt but dope video!
Just curious here but isn’t it a better idea to import the BRG 350z to Japan and import the R34 here that way you HAVE the 350 out to drive around in Japan since you view it as an extra car you don’t need HERE therefore is useful over in Japan and finally have the r34 to drive around and upgrade in the states?? The R34 being an older and more valuable/rare care these days can decay and rust easier in Japan while a 350 is more readily available in both countries plus its newer and easier to maintain maybe
Hell yeah! I got my 997.2 Turbo S a couple years ago, I freaking love it.
Awesome video as always TJ Hunt and Crew.
Dylan fuvking with Tommy is the best thing ever 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tj, if youre getting a 997. Get one thats had the ims bearing done. Theyre notoriously known for ims bearing failure.
Both 997’s in this video are .2’s. 2009 and up are completely different engines. 08 and below, 997,987,996,986 have ims and oiling issues.
I think it’s time for TJ and the boys to move to Florida🙏🏼🙌🏽
Shit and I can't even impulse buy Starbucks 😂
Can’t wait for the MP R34 GTR videos to release 😉
Lmaoooo @ the Dave commercial. LEDs? L… E… Ds.
Just got my 991.1 GTS here in north county and the Miata effect is something I’ve described NA Porsches as having. It’s so good for all of the same reasons people love the lower powered cars but at a different tier
Face smoothing filter right off the bat
Seeing you cruise the back roads of the town I live in is the coolest thing! Hope to meet you if you come back. Keep up the fantastic content!
The non “S” model for the 997.1 n 997.2 can be obtained with manual trans
My father had a 2012 Carrera S black edition convertible manual. Such a sweet car. 997s are so amazing.
I have people asking me what my dream car is, which is a tough choice always (as I never have an answer). Tommy’s Porsche with the PDK is now my answer.
Yes! Bring some 997 love to the masses!
Looking forward to what you do with it
Damn you TJ! I have turned into a Porsche lover over the weekend because of you! Now I want a 997.2 🤣
Been a fan for a bit and living my dream through your channel. I absolutely love Porsche and have never ever driven one except parking one as valet driving at a country club at 18. Im 53 now so it was a long time ago.
Put the steering wheel from 991/992 in should be plug and play
I have a 997.1 turbo manual (Mezger baby) tuned to a little over 600hp and it’s the best car ever! Get you one
I'm drunk asf at 8am watching tjs new video it's a whole ass vibe tho 😂
I love the rawness of Porsche vehicles! I just wish I could actually afford one.
Just buy it you know you love it and we love watching you do what you love
997 turbo is dope AF... best porsche of that generation by far
TJ and his chicken tendeeeeeees LOL! Lets go TJ! your da MAN!
TJ really take your time no rush in to it this porche thing you are going to find the right one for you at the right price 🤑🤑👍👍👍
Not a fan of white on cars, but my god the white 997 with Bronze TEs… DAYUMMM
Dylan and tommy duo goes hard lmao
Absolutely love this channel, keep it up Tj!
You don’t want center locks Teej. The torque wrench for them costs like 2k. and you’ll need to work out to get the 560 Foot pounds. 😝
Impulse bought the c8 Stingray 70th Anniversary coupe ! Was the best thing I could of done when obsessed about something. Followed your gut or heart Dreams can come true The devil extinguishes them. Just make sure it’s well in your budget best wishes
Yo! I remember years ago seeing that video of you renting that blue wide body Porsche. I also remember a small clip of you sitting down by the water on some rocks in the same video or some similar video and having a heart to heart with us about your journey and some of the things you’ve gone through in life. Hearing you mention that blue Porsche struck some major nostalgia! Much love here 🤙🏻❤️
Redline, dump clutch, burnout. Literally that easy.
I think I know where this leads to know tj love putting widebody kits on his cars eeeheemmmm! rwb!
TJ with that midnight purple R34 GTR x Hunt&Co shirt 👀
the blue wide body with the pdk, crazy it’s been that long. That’s when calvin claimed that he wasn’t the side. iykyk
Bro that dave ad is nuts 😭😭😭
I would have to have a Manual! No Matter What Version I Bought!!!! The experience is WELL WORTH IT!!!
It's a rev up with a hr hood. Backdated to a 02 03 bumper to use the greddy lip.
to make the wing go back down press the button, then press again and hold
Laughin my ass off at the pillow fight sign off man glad y'all are havin so much fun
The OG video of TJ renting the blue LW 997 & going to a car meet, was the 1st video of his that I watched. 2015ish I believe.
Yes. 997 Turbo is amazing!
I finally got my 440 drive gran coupe yesterday and I’m so hyped I love it!! B58 gang babyyyy!!😂😂
911 turbo s’s r monster bro MONSTERSSSSSSSSSSS i tell u
“It could be Rhode Island, rogue island or Long Island I’m not sure” 😅 I’m dead
Not overly keen on the porche content… been a lot getting around on the channels lately. Beautiful cars but not a lot of difference between them all. Can’t wait to see the m4 done 👍👍
Bro I'm so happy you have the best content in youtube thank you 🙏
TJ Hunt Awesome Video I think it's awesome that you got to test two 997.2 Porsches and I think you should get that GT2 and I think it's awesome that you guys got to see that Absolutely incredible CGT
End clips tied the video together perfectly, yolo get the 997 sooner😭
Its so weird seeing these videos of you driving on the roads ive driven my whole life. Im so used to California that when the camera turns I do a double take. the pull in the Porsche on the new Milford green, did you see the little green Sherman tank on the right?
As a CT boi I love seeing the CT based vlogs
Little smokey on that start up teej!
Gotta hold the active aero button down for a few seconds to put the spoiler down. Same as the Audi R8s
TJ, theres nothing analog about PDK. Loving the Porsche Content though, cant wait for the new car aand build
Been a subscriber since you were putting decals on miley in calvins garage. Youre spot on with the 997, I drove a .2 6 years ago and it is still the fastest car ive ever driven (even after 488s and 3rs). It literally feels like a video game. Turbo S are the quite literally the best thing on the street. the speed of a 765lt and the comfort of a Luxury Gt Car. with the reliability of a porsche.
Fk8 or FL5 CTR. Cheaper then the any of the Porsches and more eyes on the videos, because it is a more attainable vehicle for the average person.
Pretty funny, I’ve been aggressively 997 shopping for three weeks or so. Can’t wait to find the perfect one.
997.2 turbo is a great investment as well as the best daily driver super car there is.
The first video I watched was you and Calvin taking that blue Porsche to an airport meet I think.
I wish more people owned the 991 GT2 RS honestly. It’s the best of both worlds because it’s got those turbo’s.
We all knew the chicken tendies were coming 😂
Have fun and enjoy the cars you want bro. We are here for the vibes
Let’s find you a 997 Turbo!
he needs an 09 997.1.5 manual so he can have the mezger and .2 interior
Not something I'd say often, but I agree with Tommy, Turbo S over GT3 RS, Rj in Oz
The fact the 997 Turbo S can't go into Sport Mode kinda kills the whole thing lol that's wack. Very different experience in that mode.
I have one…yes it can, and Sport Plus.
It's probably not your style but a 987.2 Cayman S might be what you need. I daily drive a 987.2 base PDK and it's amazing
Last video “I’m gonna not buy one anytime soon” next video “SO I BOUGHT ONE” 🤣 we love to see it. We need it painted British Racing Green and a tan interior.
The Cup Kit idea would be awesome
its worth noting that 997.1 manuals are significantly cheaper than 997.2 manuals, hence the price at Ryan Friedman. I know in 2011, only 45 examples of 7.2 turbo manuals were produced. I think in total it's 150 cars in the US. That coupled with it being the last manual turbo makes it very collectable!
Yeah but it's not as good because the .1 still had the Metzger engine which goes to show prices are being driven less by enthusiasts and more by speculators.
@@jonmercer6868 Possibly. The Mezger has a rich history for sure, which also adds to its collectability and it is known to be quite reliable. The 7.2 DFI engine is also well known to be reliable and able to make great power out of a tune and bolt ons, just less historic racing history. I don't think it's fair to put them all on speculators, theyre doing the same for mezgers.
@@nahknahkthe best 997 Turbo is the 997 1.5, 997.1 Mezger engine with 997.2 interior, only 371 for the US Market, there's also 1 of 25 US Market 2009 997 1.5 GT2, same situation as the 09 997 1.5 Turbo, .1 engine with .2 interior
