    I’d say the 997’s design still holds up today. Seriously, beautiful car

    • @yankee2yankee216
      @yankee2yankee216 Год назад +14

      It absolutely does. That’s Porsche’s forte. It took an offbeat, 80 year-old design, and made it cutting edge, continuously, for 60 years. AMAZING!

    Tedward I just want to say I appreciate you man, for showing everyone that not everyone has to have a Subaru or a Supra. There are hundreds and hundreds of fun cars out there, and you show a lot of unique stuff.
    Much respect to you bro.

    @I53-624 Год назад +42

    In my opinion the 997 is peak Porsche. To me it’s the perfect mixture of analog and ‘modern’. 991s and 992s are phenomenal, but they just don’t compare to 997 for pure, raw, analog driving. Hoping I can own one in the future !

  • @chillphung8327
    @chillphung8327 Год назад +30

    I totally get why these cars are so expensive: Hydraulic steering, manual transmission, port injection for reliability, a chassis that was designed to communicate with the driver instead of a stability control program, and natural aspiration with power and torque way up top to encourage regular downshifting! It's sad that nothing this awesome will likely ever be built again...

    This car, this road..... Man it´s by far my most favorite RUclips video of all time. I´m dreaming of owning this car since it first came out, this exact spec was my poster car on the wall... I´m almost in tears watching this. You have made my day sweet, thank you so much Ted. #RespectTheDrive

  • @frozenpete788
    @frozenpete788 Год назад +28

    Owww man I've waited this video for sooooo long. The 997.1 has "that" little something that makes it age very well. It might not rev to 9k but I wouldn't care one bit. It looks fabulous, it sounds incredible, it represents the 2000's so well I dont know I'm kind of speechless. I thought I couldn't afford a M3 in the past and then made it, hopefully I'll acheive it with that car one day 🤞

  • @VG22.

    997 is by far the best Looking Generation of modern-day 911's

  • @I999-g2s
    @I999-g2s Год назад +7

    My first 911 was a 997.1 Carrera X51 with ceramics. I still remember exploring the chassis dynamics of arguably the last true 911 and just “getting” what everyone had been taking about for decades. The slightly light and bobbing front end, the sharp steering, the other-worldly grip out of corners, the astounding braking ability (engine behind the rear wheels) and that flat 6 howl near the red-line. was all just so-right!

  • @Zygrene

    2006-7 is a dividing line for me. The dash and controls are all analog. I appreciate that digital controls can make everything centralized, but analog always engages me that much more.

    @1855Media Год назад +6

    Great generation GT3. As an aside, the best part about GT3 reviews is that no one complains about the tall gearing. We would have to sit through at least 2-3 minutes of that if this was a GT4 review even though this GT3 does pretty much exactly the same speed in 2nd (just with less torque than a GT4).

    I have this car, it is amazing. Bought it back in 2007 and it has 27000 kms on the clock. Completely stock and sounds like a race car, kind of dangerous so I never drive it in the rain. One of the best cars ever made in my opinion.

    Nearly purchased one of these end of last year. The 997.1 is my favorite gen GT3 and that drive hooked me even more. Shifter was very direct and precise like everyone describes. I was shocked how well composed the suspension felt despite having full spherical bushings and low profile tires. Cup side muffler deletes weren’t too over bearing either. Ultimately I couldn’t agree to their price but my friend ended up buying the car instead so luckily I still get to enjoy it

    I’ve had the pleasure of owning a GT3 991.1 since it was new. An absolutely amazing car, which demands driving it well, but in return will give so much driving pleasure. I rally with a number of new GT3’s. Even though excellent drivers, good, 997 has no problem keeping up through the turns. Never wanted a newer GT3.

  • @BurningRubberDC
    @BurningRubberDC Год назад

    Fantastic. It’s crazy to think that’s not even anywhere close to what that car is capable of. (no offense!). That car wide open to 9,000 then stomping on those brakes would make most people yack from the forces. Crazy. And a stick! Can’t go wrong!
