    Having had 6 Porsche cars of varying years over a 25 year period, I got the urge to fulfill my longtime desire for a 2020 Mustang GT with Performance Option 1, 460 HP, monster front Brembo front calipers, and the sport exhaust. Took a test ride and the exhaust note sold the deal. It had the 10 speed automatic as well. Slapped on a set of high performance brake pads, track tires and wheels, added Motul brake fluid and off to the track I went. The handling of the car was awesome, little to no roll in the corners, legible pitch on braking, and the braking seemed more than adequate for a 3,750 Lb. car. But sadly, after about 5 laps a diff overheat warning would pop up on the dash, and it would overheat and go into the reduced power mode, unacceptable...it seems the exhaust pipes, passed too close to the diff was the culprit. I also discovered the rear brakes were inadequate will me going through a set of rear pads in a track weekend. The rear calipers and pads were too small for the weight of the car under track conditions, and to complicate the matter, I was unable to locate high performance pads. All of this could had been avoided if I was was willing to spend an additional $25,000 and had bought a 2020 Shelby Mustang 350. Eventually, read 3 months, I sold the 2020 Mustang GT and bough a 2013 991.1 Carrera S, sadly lacking Sport Chrono on its PDK. I really wanted the Sport Chrono Sport + Mode, but at that time, 991.1 PDK with Sport Chrono were on sales hold from Porsche.....about 10 months later, I found a 2017 Porsche Carrera GTS, and that's where I am now. In my opinion, with 450 HP, 405 ft. lb. of torque and monster Brembo brakes front and rear, Sports Suspension, state of the art creature comforts...this is the perfect car, and it has PDK with Sport Chrono, with Normal, Sport and Sport + modes. I am keeping this car: It's flawless in my opinion, and wide body too. And by the way, 0 - 60 MPH in. 3.5 seconds, and the top speed? You don't want to know.

    Prabhul ….. your videography is top notch and the music blends very smoothly. Well done! I too have trodden the same path as Richard. There is logic to this path. I own a Dodge Challenger SRT8 and a Porsche Carrera - both have been owned for many years. They are very different cars that appeal to me on different occasions. On some drives a hammer is the perfect implement and on other drives a scalpel is the perfect choice. Each has a purpose and each has its time. I enjoy having the choice. Cheers from Round Rock, Texas.

  • @jdjames997
    @jdjames997 11 месяцев назад +4

    Fantastic interview, and video, and amazing coincidence: I bought a 2020 Mustang GT when Covid started, got a great deal and heavily modded it, very much enjoyed it with a full Borla exhaust and manual transmission. About a year ago I sold it when the used car market was going crazy, and got most of my money back. Three months ago a friend was selling his 997.2 and buying a 991.2, and offered to sell it to me. so I bought the 997. I can honestly say as Richard did almost exactly, i miss the sound of the 5.0 V8, but the 911 is better in almost every other way. I enjoy the 997, but a 991 would have been great also. My only complaint about the 997.2 is the DPI made them too quiet, and getting any sound from the exhaust is challenging. Even with the Sharkwerks muffler delete and Fister modded mufflers, (which are excellent by the way, highly recommend them), the car is still too quiet. My next mod is going to be headers I think, but just trying to figure out how to do them in the USA and be able to register it. Really like Richards 991.2, beautiful car. You guys are lucky in Canada, seems to be easy to Mod cars there and not have to worry about it, tunes and headers included. Keep up the great content and videos, Richard and his wife are a great couple, cool they can spend quality time enjoying their cars together….😊

    This is such a clean build. Subtle, but yet effective. I have to commend the owner for going with silver finish on the wheels. Perfect with the color of the car. Plus I'm just tired of seeing black wheels that hide the design of the wheel.

The build quality and performance is amazing. Handling is very good with 2WD and rear steer. Plan on it to be my fleet a very long time.

    I know it’s personal preference but I think if I bought an original 911, I would not modify it at all, especially tinkering with lowering springs to me that just decreases its value from originality. I have a BMW 335 and I did springs and Bill Steen, but as a refresh.
