Joe, I'm watching you from the very beginning. You had 2 or 3k subs. I subscribed on the first watched video of yours, because I knew that you will grow up and make us happy with awesome content! No, THANK YOU !
What a way to bow out in 2022. The video was perfect. Not excessive spec and technical talk, just pure driving and emotion. Hat tip to Patrick film. The b roll and white balance are perfect!
For anyone who's wondering the roads are in Portugal around the Serra da Estrela mountain range. At 0:47 you see a sign that says Centro Limpeza Neve. Thanks for the amazing video Joe. It's a real achievement to dedicate 10 years to producing amazing content.
No. Thank you Joe. Thank you for this exceptional video. Thank you for the emotion. Thank you for the hard work. Thank you and the team for the cinematography and high quality content. This will be, I think, one of my all time favourite videos that you have made. A great celebration of your commitment to your channel over the past decade. Amazing.
Joe, I’ve been watching you for a good couple years. Seeing this special moment really makes me happy for your success and you always manage to make some of the highest quality videos so, this is more than deserved. I wish you even more success and look forward to more brilliant content
What a fantastic way to mark the first 10 years… so many people are so very proud of you and what you have achieved. Well done buddy, very happy for you and very grateful to have been able to be a part of that journey with you. Onwards and upwards!!
Mate, beautiful video, incredible car but more importantly congratulations for the blood sweat and tears you have poured into RUclips over the last 10 years. Genuinely couldn’t be more proud of you for persevering through the tough times to achieve what you have. Inspiring and couldnt wish for a better person to have it happen to. Well done, much love and as usual incredible content ❤👏
Thank you bro that means a hell of a lot ❤️ Great to see you a few times this year, especially for a beer in Rhodes 😅 Sending love to you Maya over Christmas, see you soon xx
I must admit you couldn't have started the video in a better way than you just did. Especially the still shot seeing the taillights of the GT3 going down the road. Fantastic camera work done by Patrick! Congratulations to your decade as a creator, truly inspiring and it's clear that you've got your dream job! I couldn't agree more on your statement that hard work pays off. Hopefully, we will get to enjoy many years to come of your amazing work.
I can’t seem to come up with the words to describe how I felt watching this video? It was to me, the purest representation of what it might be like to drive this car. Thank you for letting me experience it with you. 🙏
10 YEARS!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉….that takes grit & determination Joe…and the results speak for themselves…it’s why we keep watching….great GUY great content!!! Well done and thank you for making us part of your journey!!!
A truly heartfelt video and have complete admiration. It’s inspirational to see all your hard work and dedication come to fruition especially through all the highs and lows. The videos are only a the tip of the iceberg of what goes into producing fantastic content from inception all the way through to planning, filming, post-production and much more. Plus supported by a brilliant bunch of people! Thoroughly enjoy watching your videos and you deserve every success both now and into the future. Well done Joe! 🥳
I’m not one to usually comment Joe but felt I needed to say congratulations I’ve been watching every video of yours for a couple years or so now, there’s something about your content that appears more than a lot of others. Hard work forever pays ! You deserve everything you get ! I’m excited to see you grow further over the next 10 years x
Thanks Joe! As a 997 911 turbo owner the emotion you displayed in this video was relatable. Combining the true driving experience of the 911 with life's emotional roller coaster and the exhilarating highs was brilliant. Keep up the great work!
Congratulations on ten years Joe I’ve been watching for almost five of those years and you’ve always been honest entertaining and informative. Your emotion truly shows and it’s refreshing. Thank you
The 992 is definitely one of the best looking Porsche’s and joe’s face tells it all. Emotional to watch and touched with sadness. It reminds me of my brother in law,he was so excited when he picked up his dream Porsche Panamera 3 months ago. Sadly none of us knew that love affair would come to a sudden end after 3 weeks. He passed away. RIP Bill.......Thanks joe.
Phenomenal video. Well deserved success, Joe. You’ve worked hard and provided engaging and informative content for us all to enjoy! As a car nut, I would love to be in your position one day - you’re words at the end were inspirational. Congratulations on the journey.
A truly spectacular and heartfelt video you made here Joe. What you have achieved with the amount of hard work you’ve put in is thoroughly deserved. It’s been incredible to watch you since the M135i days, to see how far you’ve come now. The message you delivered about keep going to reach those goals, really resonated with me and it’s so true, keep up the graft and your faith will be rewarded. Your journey is inspiring to me and I’m sure it is to others too. Keep up the tremendous work Joe, and thank you for the excellent content and the endless amount of entertainment you’ve provided us over the years! Thank you ❤
I have been watching your video. Becouse im a BMW M and Porsche 911 fan. Im so thanksful for your great and proffisonal video. And this last one, that you told your hard work story. Im like you, i love when people work hard. And get what they want. I hope you are coming to Sweden one day.? Have a great sunday and take care
I've got a 991.1 GT3 in rhodium silver. It's a common misconception that German cars are souless. But I worked hard. Got the keys to it and had the same wave of emotion on my first drive. It's visceral. Keep patting yourself on the back. You've done a great job.
Good on you, Joe. Glad you made this video and got yourself in the position where you could make it. Finally, thanks for the reply on Instagram one time. To your point, we all have tough times, we just have to do our best to stay the course. Even when it feels like a very tough thing to do. May you good times continue. All the best.
I want to thank you for everything you have given to us petrolheads. The GT3 t is one of the gratest for sure and we all appreciate your work that you put in to give us a glimse of what it´s like. You are honest in your reviews and thats why you will prosper my friend, keep it up! cheers from Sweden
Still one the best emotional best filmed videos and comments from Joe i have seen. I have my dream gt3 touring since end of march 2024 this year. i love it.❤👌
I have watched your content since Lockdown and yourself and Petrol Ped are the only car channels that are always watched. Congrats on 10 years and I am with you on reaching your goals in life. I remember looking at a view of an Island that I promised myself I would one day visit and fish on 20 years previously and that day in question I was also driving my first Land Rover and I thought as I had been made a Manager in my career on that very island that was the summit but then I was on my own and didn't have 208k subscribers to be there with me. It is important that men talk about mental health and that it is ok to have a tear in our eyes. Good on you for showing emotion on camera and keeping it in the final edit. I am sure your channel will grow and grow and you will have other experiences that will top this one but enjoy this one in your memory until that time. Thanks for sharing.
Congratulations Joe on your 10 years! I've been watching the channel for years and so great to see you going from strength to strength. Good on you for all the hard work that's gotten you to this point. Oh, and what a car! 🙂
Thank you for sharing your feelings with us Joe, on top of this brilliant drive you’ve brought us all along on. You deserve it mate, with all the hard work you’ve put in. Keep it coming. Enjoy. Cheers, Tom.
Years from now when we're all buzzing around in electric vehicles, with the ICE ban still fresh in our minds, we'll look back at this footage and wonder "what have we done!?" What a car, what an amazing road and what a great video. Thanks Joe. I'd call this a fitting tribute to the age of the ICE and also to 10 years of your content.
As a viewer it's not always apparent the amount of hard and dedicated work it takes to keep putting out content continuously. Kudos to 10 years and the well enjoyed treat and thank you for sharing it with us!
unbelievable Joe. I first watched you in the white manual m135. I later bought a blue 3 door manual LCI (convinced my parents to allow me, 20yo, by showing them your “why rwd cars won’t kill you in the snow” video). happy to have been able to watch your journey. long may it continue.
That last minute made me emotional. Hearing that GT3 roar down the road while thinking about the EV world that we are charging towards...was too much for me. It's as if a you are permanently breaking up with the person you love and you'll never see them again. Bravo, Joe! You are the man. More Patrick please. Joe and Patrick = Chris Harris and Neil. Cheers mate!
Hi Joe, this video was also really emotional for me. I have been watching all your videos since many years and I just want to let you know that I think I have grown a friend in you even though we haven't met in real life! Please keep doing what makes you happy and stay safe, my friend :')
Thank you Joe You’re by far my favorite car journalist I really appreciate your comments, your skills, your politeness and your composure. Unfortunately I don’t have your same opportunities to drive all that amazing and dream cars (but I’m a doctor and I’m very lucky to be able to help people in my daily basis job) but I’m a petrol head ever since I was a child and I think that most of your comments equals those I would have said!
This is the one. Touring spec GT3, as loved by Joe Achilles and harry Metcalfe, two of the best you tubers out there. Please keep doing the Porsches and BMW reviews, my two favourite marques.
You deserve success because you're humble and are not annoying like so many car reviewers that can't get enough of hearing themselves talk and act like fools. You also seem authentic and reasonable in your assessments of cars. So, thank you.
I’ve watched your videos for about 9 of your ten years. You’ve been a go to source of valuable advice and entertainment through some great and crappy times. Thank you for what you do
Thank you carwow for introducing me to Joe, he is amazing guy and you could really feel and see him get emotional in this video and I love it, this is exactly the reason we strive and desire to own such cars, can't even imagine his reaction when he one day buys his own 992 GT3 Touring. Wish you luck in next 10 years Joe.
Thank you Joe. RUclips suggested your channel many years ago. You have influenced the last 3 cars I have purchased ( M240i, 440i coupe in the amazing Lambo grey and a naught exhaust, and currently G20 M340i. Thank you. A real man is allowed to be emotional, you have built your channel over time and for that you should be proud., I cannot image what was going on in your head in March 2020. When the video opened - no chat, no music I knew it was going to special. Thank you again Joe
Best car on the planet by a country mile…..Still pinching myself after I was advised that I achieved an allocation of a GT3. One of the best if not THE best vid of a GT3 in its natural habitat..👌
The quality of the video was immense. The car is phenomenal. Most importantly though, congratulations Joe. So proud of you and your success. This was emotional. You've worked so hard for this moment, to be in this position. We've seen your progress over the years. Long may it continue.
Joe you inspired me to buy my M2 in 2018 with your video driving through the streets of London early one morning. Now I’m in a 2022 GT4 and I share your dream of a GT3 some day. Thanks for keeping it real and congratulations on 10 years. I hope you and I both reach that dream some day.
Tremendous stuff Joe, I’ve followed your journey from the start I think. Everything has gone up a notch here! Keep up the great and hard work 😎👊 Dream car for the garage there!
Great video Joe well done on lasting 10 years when many other YT channels have long since disappeared, just to prove that hard work does pay off, keep the content coming 👏👏👏
I am taking delivery of my Touring next week. This is the finest video I have ever seen on this car. I commend you for being able to combine the emotionality of the experience for you without getting in the way of the car and it’s incredible capabilities on what look like the most heavenly roads! Congratulations to you and may you enjoy another 10 years of excellence!
Hit the like button in seconds, stunning video and that amazing flat 6 noise, the production was off the scale. Thank you for taking us along on your journey Joe, such a genuine bloke.
Brilliant video. The production quality is top notch, great work all round. And what a machine the GT3 Touring is. I challenge anyone to name an EV that would come anywhere near ICE cars like this for visceral driving thrills. These few remaining years are truly the end of an era.
@@JoeAchilles1 `Joe, I also meant to add, sharing your journey to make this channel a success, the ups and downs you've gone through, was both inspiring and really appreciated by those of us that love the content of your channel and also your genuineness as a person. Wishing you continued success and all the very best for the future! 👍
The sound and experience of motoring like this is a dying art, it’s fitting to see it shown with the sunset 😢, only the rich will be able to experience it soon. No more noise, no more combustion engines, just soul less electric motors
Thank you too Joe, THANK YOU!! And the sound alone should be a soundtrack, which I would keep on repeat... but hey, I'll just replay this amazing video over and over:) Somewhat reminds me of my first experience with a Honda S20000 passing by close to the rev limiter. Later bought myself a Civic SOCH VTEC, but doesn't come close to this at all... My 2016 Golf GTI is a manual, and the closest I've come to the sound of the Civic..I have seen 117 km/h on 2nd gear once, that EA888 revs far beyond 7000 rpm, and harder all the way as it is a DOCH (to my knowledge at least). But that Porsche, I believe, is an absolute dream for most of us watching.. need it. NOW;-)
Joe, This is one of the top 3 reviews I have ever seen in my life and I‘m breathing the air on this earth for quite some decades. Your dedication, passion and down-to-the-earth attitude are seen in every single of your videos. If will be lucky enough one day I will own and drive my hero as you name 911 so in the mean time I totally enjoy watching your reviews as I really relate to your driving emotions. This is what makes the life sweeter, so I wish you will keep on living your dream life :) by the way: thank you from the bottom of my heart for your great reviews. Great cars are brought to us closer thanx to you… cheers and all the best, Joe.
Joe...Thank You...Ive been watching you for years. Thank you for showing the true human emotion, humbleness, gratitude and excitement over the years. This GT3 or maybe the next generation is my ultimate dream drivers car...the one that i want to own and maintain for the rest of my life. I don't think there is another car that is NA, sounds amazing with track car feel...and bravado like this car. Much respect.
Have been with you from the start mate, you are an inspiration to those that haven't taken the brave pill yet. Keep backing yourself, we all believe in you
Wow ! Joe Achilles, You really moved me ! Thanks for all your review and information here on this channel. Good luck to for At least another 10 years. And allows remember ,You are living the dream of most of your fans ! ❤️
The best driving the best in one of the best videos I've seen on the GT3 Touring. Thanks so much for doing what you do, Joe. Looking forward to your next one.
Your best video to date! Awesome cinematics and dialogue! The location is 10/10. Keep up the good work Joe! Youre one of the best! Easy to watch and very entertaining!
This seems a very fitting time to write the following Mr Achilles; 18 months ago I bought a 2017 335D touring, for the engine, largely because of what you've said about that engine. Every day I get in my beemer she makes me smile! I thank you (and a young lady who said "if it'll make you happy, get it!") for that Joe. 😊 Exceptional video mate; respect. One day I'll progress on to the Porsche mark! Happy Christmas to you, your family, and all your followers.
Joe. I love your work re the Porsche lineup and I’ve watched all of your and now, almost every other GT3, Carrera T plus the Porsche exotics videos out there and this one remains one on my most favoured and special videos on both RUclips and on this car - thanks for making it happen for us and taking the time to share yourself ( and your emotion) and all these great perspectives with your fan group and followers. The GT3 Touring still/ photo profile at the mountain top with clouds behind is most special and makes such a great photo. I’m a big fan from Sydney, Australia and thanks so much from all of us here again. Keep it happening for all of us… Love your work!
...heartfelt congratulations! ...a visual feast, watched the sister video to this one. Together, a testimony of spirit and an exemplar of determination to strive for and live by... with a lovely GT3 soundtrack.
This one is for you guys ♥
Joe, I'm watching you from the very beginning. You had 2 or 3k subs. I subscribed on the first watched video of yours, because I knew that you will grow up and make us happy with awesome content! No, THANK YOU !
Much appreciated 😁
👏🏁👏🏁👏🏁👏🏁👏
What a way to bow out in 2022. The video was perfect. Not excessive spec and technical talk, just pure driving and emotion. Hat tip to Patrick film. The b roll and white balance are perfect!
Amazing filmography!
For anyone who's wondering the roads are in Portugal around the Serra da Estrela mountain range. At 0:47 you see a sign that says Centro Limpeza Neve. Thanks for the amazing video Joe. It's a real achievement to dedicate 10 years to producing amazing content.
Thanks!
Snitch 😂😂
Cheers 🤙
I am assuming now it would be closed due to weather?
@@socratesmokkas4413 not yet I think. It's not as high as the Alps
No. Thank you Joe. Thank you for this exceptional video. Thank you for the emotion. Thank you for the hard work. Thank you and the team for the cinematography and high quality content. This will be, I think, one of my all time favourite videos that you have made. A great celebration of your commitment to your channel over the past decade. Amazing.
Just dropping a bit of jealousy here
You of all people have nothing to be jealous of 🤔
😘
Probably because 880hp AMG GT Black Series, which is blisteringly quick, but had no manual shifter 😛 Love your content, Misha 😍
Hi mishael
Any car that moves it’s driver emotionally the way it moved Joe is a bloody legend!
Well done Joe
Joe, I’ve been watching you for a good couple years. Seeing this special moment really makes me happy for your success and you always manage to make some of the highest quality videos so, this is more than deserved. I wish you even more success and look forward to more brilliant content

Breathtaking watching it, I can only imagine what it must be like in the driving seat 😌. Well done Joe on the milestone, hard does indeed pay off 🤛
Thank you, was a trip of a lifetime!
Joe, really chuffed for you that your hard work, personality and skills are now paying off and you’re getting to review such great cars now.
I must admit you couldn't have started the video in a better way than you just did. Especially the still shot seeing the taillights of the GT3 going down the road. Fantastic camera work done by Patrick! Congratulations to your decade as a creator, truly inspiring and it's clear that you've got your dream job!

Easily one of your best produced video mate. Incredible. What an experience.
Among the very best videos out there. The sound, lighting, commentary, all of it. Congrats on your well deserved success Joe.
I can’t seem to come up with the words to describe how I felt watching this video? It was to me, the purest representation of what it might be like to drive this car. Thank you for letting me experience it with you. 🙏

Congratulations Joe on your 10 years! I've been watching the channel for years and so great to see you going from strength to strength. Good on you for all the hard work that's gotten you to this point. Oh, and what a car! 🙂
The correct way to view a Joe Achilles video, Open video, Pause, Click like, continue to watch the video, Brilliant vid as always!!
Thank you for sharing your feelings with us Joe, on top of this brilliant drive you’ve brought us all along on. You deserve it mate, with all the hard work you’ve put in. Keep it coming. Enjoy. Cheers, Tom.
Years from now when we're all buzzing around in electric vehicles, with the ICE ban still fresh in our minds, we'll look back at this footage and wonder "what have we done!?"
What a car, what an amazing road and what a great video. Thanks Joe.
I'd call this a fitting tribute to the age of the ICE and also to 10 years of your content.
Awesome to see someone grateful and appreciative for what they worked for rewarded. No entitlement...
Happy for you man!
As a viewer it's not always apparent the amount of hard and dedicated work it takes to keep putting out content continuously. Kudos to 10 years and the well enjoyed treat and thank you for sharing it with us!
unbelievable Joe. I first watched you in the white manual m135. I later bought a blue 3 door manual LCI (convinced my parents to allow me, 20yo, by showing them your “why rwd cars won’t kill you in the snow” video). happy to have been able to watch your journey. long may it continue.

Hi Joe,
this video was also really emotional for me. I have been watching all your videos since many years and I just want to let you know that I think I have grown a friend in you even though we haven't met in real life!
Please keep doing what makes you happy and stay safe, my friend :')
Thank you Joe
You’re by far my favorite car journalist
I really appreciate your comments, your skills, your politeness and your composure.
Unfortunately I don’t have your same opportunities to drive all that amazing and dream cars (but I’m a doctor and I’m very lucky to be able to help people in my daily basis job) but I’m a petrol head ever since I was a child and I think that most of your comments equals those I would have said!
This is the one. Touring spec GT3, as loved by Joe Achilles and harry Metcalfe, two of the best you tubers out there. Please keep doing the Porsches and BMW reviews, my two favourite marques.
So great to see you share this special moment with everbody here on RUclips. 10 years off hard work and epic adventure.
You deserve success because you're humble and are not annoying like so many car reviewers that can't get enough of hearing themselves talk and act like fools. You also seem authentic and reasonable in your assessments of cars. So, thank you.
Delighted for you Joe 👏 Great emotional video and well deserved mate 👌
I’ve watched your videos for about 9 of your ten years. You’ve been a go to source of valuable advice and entertainment through some great and crappy times. Thank you for what you do
Hey Joe. I'm a long time fan keep Winning man. We're all proud of you as well.
Thank you carwow for introducing me to Joe, he is amazing guy and you could really feel and see him get emotional in this video and I love it, this is exactly the reason we strive and desire to own such cars, can't even imagine his reaction when he one day buys his own 992 GT3 Touring. Wish you luck in next 10 years Joe.
Way to go Joe! Congrats for your success and thank you for your great work that we get to see! Much appreciated!

The Best car, in the Best road in the world. - Portugal, Nacional road-339(Serra da Estrela)
💯👋😎
Best car on the planet by a country mile…..Still pinching myself after I was advised that I achieved an allocation of a GT3. One of the best if not THE best vid of a GT3 in its natural habitat..👌
It’s nice to see an automotive RUclipsr being humble about the amazing job he has. Good luck Joe, keep up the good work
The best video out there on the entirety of RUclips. Godspeed.
Thank you 👍🏽
Congratulations Joe. You have been such a legend man! Thank you for the inspirational words. Keep on keeping on, just as you are! Well done Joe!
The quality of the video was immense. The car is phenomenal. Most importantly though, congratulations Joe. So proud of you and your success. This was emotional. You've worked so hard for this moment, to be in this position. We've seen your progress over the years. Long may it continue.
Joe you inspired me to buy my M2 in 2018 with your video driving through the streets of London early one morning. Now I’m in a 2022 GT4 and I share your dream of a GT3 some day. Thanks for keeping it real and congratulations on 10 years. I hope you and I both reach that dream some day.
One of the best videos I have ever seen. The emotion and life advice was incredible. A joy to watch. Joe you deserve your success.
Tremendous stuff Joe, I’ve followed your journey from the start I think. Everything has gone up a notch here! Keep up the great and hard work 😎👊 Dream car for the garage there!
Cheers Lee, really appreciate your long term support buddy!
Stunning video. That opening segment gave me goose bumps. The quality was so good I bet Porsche want it for promotional material.
Great video Joe well done on lasting 10 years when many other YT channels have long since disappeared, just to prove that hard work does pay off, keep the content coming 👏👏👏
Epic film, car, roads, scenery, drive - well done Joe 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. A proper blast in a GT3 to mark 10 years 🙌🏻
I am taking delivery of my Touring next week. This is the finest video I have ever seen on this car. I commend you for being able to combine the emotionality of the experience for you without getting in the way of the car and it’s incredible capabilities on what look like the most heavenly roads! Congratulations to you and may you enjoy another 10 years of excellence!
Real world review. Real world man. You sir deserve everything you have worked for.
When I heard those downshifts at 0:10, I thought it was a PDK, but it is actually a manual, some great shifting there pal...
Incredible clutch and box makes that possible, I will take a tiny bit of credit though ;-)
Fantastic video Joe. Your videos are getting better and better! Here’s to the next 10 years!❤
One of the best intros to a car video ever. Jesus Christ what a vid!
Hit the like button in seconds, stunning video and that amazing flat 6 noise, the production was off the scale. Thank you for taking us along on your journey Joe, such a genuine bloke.
Brilliant video. The production quality is top notch, great work all round. And what a machine the GT3 Touring is. I challenge anyone to name an EV that would come anywhere near ICE cars like this for visceral driving thrills. These few remaining years are truly the end of an era.
Cheers man! Yep, EV's will never EVER get close unfortunately.
@@JoeAchilles1 `Joe, I also meant to add, sharing your journey to make this channel a success, the ups and downs you've gone through, was both inspiring and really appreciated by those of us that love the content of your channel and also your genuineness as a person. Wishing you continued success and all the very best for the future! 👍
Incredible video, watched it 6 months ago and I pick up my own GT3 Touring on Thursday, can’t wait! 🔥
Best video of yours by far. Thank you. Remembered it today and came back to watch it again. Won’t be the last time for sure. 🙏
The sound and experience of motoring like this is a dying art, it’s fitting to see it shown with the sunset 😢, only the rich will be able to experience it soon. No more noise, no more combustion engines, just soul less electric motors
Congratulations on 10 Years Joe! Been watching your content since you picked up your OG M2. Keep it up the great work. Well deserved. #legend
One of the best GT3 reviews. Love your honesty about having to work hard. ❤
Thank you too Joe, THANK YOU!!
And the sound alone should be a soundtrack, which I would keep on repeat... but hey, I'll just replay this amazing video over and over:)
Somewhat reminds me of my first experience with a Honda S20000 passing by close to the rev limiter. Later bought myself a Civic SOCH VTEC, but doesn't come close to this at all... My 2016 Golf GTI is a manual, and the closest I've come to the sound of the Civic..I have seen 117 km/h on 2nd gear once, that EA888 revs far beyond 7000 rpm, and harder all the way as it is a DOCH (to my knowledge at least). But that Porsche, I believe, is an absolute dream for most of us watching.. need it. NOW;-)
What a treat! The subject, the cinematics and the scenary are top notch. Congrats!
Joe,
This is one of the top 3 reviews I have ever seen in my life and I‘m breathing the air on this earth for quite some decades. Your dedication, passion and down-to-the-earth attitude are seen in every single of your videos. If will be lucky enough one day I will own and drive my hero as you name 911 so in the mean time I totally enjoy watching your reviews as I really relate to your driving emotions. This is what makes the life sweeter, so I wish you will keep on living your dream life :) by the way: thank you from the bottom of my heart for your great reviews. Great cars are brought to us closer thanx to you… cheers and all the best, Joe.
The golden sunrrise, the view, that engine singing away, awesome! 😁
Joe. well done on 10 years. Another great and emotive video. The 992 GT3 Touring is probably the only car I would change my 981 GT4 for.
Been watching you for a long time and this is your best work 🙌. Onwards and upwards
Joe...Thank You...Ive been watching you for years. Thank you for showing the true human emotion, humbleness, gratitude and excitement over the years. This GT3 or maybe the next generation is my ultimate dream drivers car...the one that i want to own and maintain for the rest of my life. I don't think there is another car that is NA, sounds amazing with track car feel...and bravado like this car. Much respect.
Have been with you from the start mate, you are an inspiration to those that haven't taken the brave pill yet. Keep backing yourself, we all believe in you
You had me since the first vroom. Keep up the great work Joe, we will always support you.
Wow !
Joe Achilles, You really moved me !
Thanks for all your review and information here on this channel.
Good luck to for At least another 10 years.
And allows remember ,You are living the dream of most of your fans !
❤️
One of my favorite videos you’ve ever made Joe! My absolute dream car, incredible
Awesome!
The best driving the best in one of the best videos I've seen on the GT3 Touring. Thanks so much for doing what you do, Joe. Looking forward to your next one.
Your best video to date! Awesome cinematics and dialogue! The location is 10/10. Keep up the good work Joe! Youre one of the best! Easy to watch and very entertaining!
Hey Joe, Congratulations on your top of the world pay off to all of your hard work! All of us here appreciate and respect you. Cheers!
You’re my hero Joe! Don’t ever stop doing what you do!
This seems a very fitting time to write the following Mr Achilles; 18 months ago I bought a 2017 335D touring, for the engine, largely because of what you've said about that engine. Every day I get in my beemer she makes me smile! I thank you (and a young lady who said "if it'll make you happy, get it!") for that Joe. 😊 Exceptional video mate; respect. One day I'll progress on to the Porsche mark! Happy Christmas to you, your family, and all your followers.
Joe. I love your work re the Porsche lineup and I’ve watched all of your and now, almost every other GT3, Carrera T plus the Porsche exotics videos out there and this one remains one on my most favoured and special videos on both RUclips and on this car - thanks for making it happen for us and taking the time to share yourself ( and your emotion) and all these great perspectives with your fan group and followers. The GT3 Touring still/ photo profile at the mountain top with clouds behind is most special and makes such a great photo. I’m a big fan from Sydney, Australia and thanks so much from all of us here again. Keep it happening for all of us… Love your work!
...heartfelt congratulations! ...a visual feast, watched the sister video to this one. Together, a testimony of spirit and an exemplar of determination to strive for and live by... with a lovely GT3 soundtrack.
Probably the greatest modern car video …loved it what a triumph Joe
The first 2 minutes truly captures what driving pleasure feels like. Beautifully shot Joe!
