  • Bitten by the car bug at an early age, Shawn was drawn around the aura of cars. Dissatisfied with the modern trend of assisted vehicles, Shawn took a step back into the fundamentals of driving.
    Grasping the feel of man and machine and the human reaction of having every movement of the vehicle blend with his motions he searched for his perfect Porsche 911. With a page out of Porsche’s "Less is More" philosophy, he sought remove everything but the essentials. His project grew phenomenally as a simple suspension upgrade quickly became an all out track car build. This is his car life story.
    Special thanks to Shawn Wang & Curtis Choi for the additional footage

    Absolutely beautiful car! I don't understand why people are giving him a hard time about his accent. Having an accent isn't exactly something you choose...Regardless of his accent you can still tell how passionate he is about his car.

      1 last thought.. My career(B4 Retirement), took me outside the U.S. to live + work. As a guest of those countries, I spent a great amount of time learning their cultures, language, traditions, etc. Let me tell you, I heard my share of giggles following a "Mispronounced word or phrase". In the end, EVERY COUNTRY I lived and worked in, most everyone I encountered was GRATEFUL that I TRIED to speak to them in THEIR LANGUAGE and, I was respectful of their cultures and traditions! Its embarrassing to see and hear Americans judging people who are different than they are! How many languages do they(ugly+hateful/judgemental idiot's) Speak?? Now who looks STUPID?! (Me=3 Two languages+Sign Language)

      @Beolex 9 лет назад +13

      BECKMCS Its not a 930, its a 3.2 Carrera. 930 is only used to designate the Turbo. Many earlier 911's never had a 9xx chassis name, just 3.2 Carrera, 911SC, etc.

    • @BECKMCS
      @BECKMCS 9 лет назад

      Daniel Mirzotti Thanks for the clarification. I've always thought that generation/body style of the 911 falls under 930. Good to know!

    • @Beolex
      @Beolex 9 лет назад +2

      BECKMCS
      I used to think the same thing as well and somebody corrected me on it. It should make sense but I guess Porsche never made a chassis code designation for them.
      It took me years to figure out the "timeline" of 911's, because they stopped using chassis codes after the 901 until the 964 debuted in '89. But between those years, I guess you just call each 911 by its model name, which goes as following (from what I can gather):
      -1964 the Porsche 911 (2.0L) is released
      -1966 the 911S is revealed
      -1967 the 911T is revealed
      -1969 the 911E is revealed
      -1969 to 1971, same models but now 2.2L
      -1971 to 1973, same models but now 2.4L
      -1973 the Carrera RS 2.7 is released
      -1974 the Carrera RS 3.0 replaces 2.7 RS
      -1974 3.0 RS, 911T and 911E gone, 911 and 911S remain but displacement bumped to 2.7
      -1974 the Carrera 2.7 is released
      -1975 the 930 Turbo is released
      -1976 to 1977 the Carrera 3.0 released
      -1978 to 1983 its the 911SC (3.0L)
      -1984 to 1989 its the 3.2 Carrera
      -1989 to 1994 its the 964
      -1993 to 1998 its the 993
      -1998 to 2005 its the 996
      -2004 to 2012 its the 997
      -2011 to now its the 991
      Please correct me if I'm wrong, especially with the pre-964 statistics, as they can be very confusing.

    I lived in Vancouver(Burnaby) for 2+yrs. They have some of the greatest roads I've ever seen and lucky enough to have driven! Two of my favorite drive's were..#2. Sea to Sky highway from West Vancouver to Whistler, BC. #1. Vancouver Island. From Nanaimo due west/south west to Ucluelet/Torino on the Pacific Rim! Simply amazing, well paved switchbacked roads with no traffic (or police) on that trip! Back then I had a modified Supra Turbo! When I moved back to the states, MONTANA had NO SPEED LIMIT! Needless to say..SUPRA TURBO..√ , FRESH TIRES..√, RACING GAS..√, LEAD FOOT..√¡! = My version of an EPIC DRIVE!

    Lovely cinematography and production values. Like the film noire-ish mood and owner talk in the dark garage. And the flashlight revealing the car.
    Petrolicious recently had a 911T video called “Minimalist” that has a really lovely aesthetic too - but I liked your treatment that suited this car.
    As for the comments on the guy’s accent, well for me it enriched the story to meet the owner and hear him tell his story. Good for you that you didn’t take away from that.

    As a fellow 3.2 Carrera owner who wants to modify but retain the stock OEM look I would be really interested in a mod list if possible. I'm interested in those wheels since they actually look to be 17s instead of the stock 16s.

    I kept my '81 SC totally stock (along with factory suspension ride-height) and I've had that car at maximum velocity numerous times (from the Copper Mtn. exit on I-70 to the mid-Vail exit in 12 minutes, no braking involved). As long as you know how to throttle-steer the SC you don't need all those 'bells & whistles': lowered suspension, 930 brakes, 8' rear Fuchs rims, front and rear spoilers ( 'whale tail'), etc.. Of course, if expense was no limitation...
