      Tony is a real classic. He's a funny bloke too but c'mon, Tony, get with the program. 1) A 2022 Porsche 992 Carrera GT3 RS is good. 2) A 1992 Porsche 964 Carrera RS is great. 3) A Porsche by Singer is best. Don't believe me? _"... and on the seventh day God looked down from the heavens upon the masses of automotive mediocrity. None of what He saw pleased him; not Ferrari, Rolls Royce, not even a donkey.... so God stretched his arm down to Earth and touched the hand of Rob Dickinson. Alas, Singer Vehicle Design was born.”_

    @lastrasp 2 года назад +38

    Honestly you’d be amazed how capable a well sorted 964 can be even when compared with the modern stuff. A Carrera 2 or even 4 with well sorted suspension and some engine mods will surprise you with what it can do and how fast it can be on the road.

  • @radeon08
    @radeon08 2 года назад +6

    Best video yet, Tony is right, 200k is silly for this. Everything you both loved about the car is true in the base carerra 964. This car is for rich collectors who like to own something special.
    If you want the driving experience of this. Get a 993 or 964 Carrera S.

  • @stevegreene9149
    @stevegreene9149 2 года назад

    I don't listen to the podcast so have no idea who Tony is. At first, I am thinking "who is this guy??!!" then slowly but surely I warmed to his enthusiasm, his mad laughs and the banter between you both. Such contrasting people, but with one common passion, albeit with a different flavour (classic vs modern!). Stunning car and entertaining video. Thanks!

  • @gordonsimpson3235
    @gordonsimpson3235 2 года назад +15

    That was great Sam, and I guess that is the closest you will ever get to encouraging Tony to get excited about a classic!
    For me, it would be a 993 (preferably a GT2 - I know crazy money these days (due to the ruddy investors). Or a much earlier 911 S/T. No water cooled Porsche would ever make it into my garage.

    • @seenthroughglass
      @seenthroughglass  2 года назад +8

      I’m really coming round to 993s. But you’re right, I’m not sure I’ll be getting Tony in a classic again

    • @gregs8685

  • @improbablecollector4614
    @improbablecollector4614 2 года назад +1

    As a longterm owner of a 964RS I would say that your experience of the brakes is not representative : you have 3.3 turbo brake callipers on, on a car that is only 1225kgs. These cars have massive brake feel and it is one of if not their strongest point

  • @sultanoftippoo3857
    @sultanoftippoo3857 Год назад

    Superb video and one that showed perfectly why people drive different cars.
    Tony summed it up, “you buy and drive a car for what you want it for”, it’s as simple as that.
    I’m more of an Italian car guy but I’ve got a soft spot for classic 911’s.
    All that said regarding new car vs. modern classic, it would be interesting to know how much the chap who bought and resold the blue Mercedes GT to Tony either made or lost in that year of ownership.

  • @jeffmcconnell705
    @jeffmcconnell705 2 года назад

    You're comment about the size it spot on; it's amazing how small these are compared to modern cars. Dad has a 993 Carrera S and a 964 Carrera 4, and both look so small even compared to my 2019 GTI, especially once you get in. And the 964 is so much more narrow than the 993. Living in Texas, with so many stupid big trucks, the positive about driving the 964 is that it nearly fits into a U.S. parking spot with loads of room on both sides for those fools who just swing their doors open.

  • @MassinissaDallaCosta
    @MassinissaDallaCosta 2 года назад

    My father owned a 1992 964 RS silver, bought used in 1996 with 28.000km, we sell it 10 years ago. Honestly 200k euro is too much for this car, i agree 120-140k is a good range.
    About confidence on driving it...it depends on how much trained you are and i mean not only as a driver but physically, windy or mountain roads can kill your neck, shoulders and arms in a few kilometers if you want to drive it properly.
    By the way, i loved this car, i cried the day we sold it...the best car i ever driven, the closest to a proper race car and one car that everyone must drive once in a lifetime.
    Thanks for this nice video!

  • @mikenorthern1024
    @mikenorthern1024 2 года назад

    I’ve had both. A well sorted and modified 964 and own an RS. The RS is special. It is what I was trying to build. The price comes with the limited number of RS’s built and that it has the RS label. Believe the “true” labeled RS since the 73 model. I know there was an SCRS but they made like 20 and it’s more race themed like the 964 NGT RS. Surprised it’s only $210K. Must have higher miles. Brakes on the RS are amazing so for the example you drove they must need replacing. Thanks for the video.

  • @denisspratt926
    @denisspratt926 2 года назад +8

    This was a good video.
    The 964 and the 993 are my favorite generations of the 911.
    The RS there is brilliant.
    I would actually say that Tony doesn't get real drivers cars.
    He's always talking about flappy panel gearboxes and these things.
    Anyone can can push a button to change gears.
    A analog car like the 964 there is much more engaging than anything Tony mumble on about.
    Nice video though.

  • @Jonoponomono
    @Jonoponomono 2 года назад +2

    Loved this video. It would be the RS for me any day if I had 200K to spend over a new supercar. This is the beauty of the hobby, we don't all have to want the same things but we are still tied together as enthusiasts. Keep up the good work.

    Obviously if you think your videos suffer in quality by the multiple uploads then I get going back to once a week but if you can swing it my vote is in for keeping it twice a week!

    A 964 RS not only out-performs most other cars on the road, but it will out-perform pretty much all other cars in the appreciation stakes ($$ as well as literally)! Sadly I sold my 964 about 10 years ago, thinking it was awesome to own for 2 years and sell for what I paid for it. Had I held on to it, it would have possibly tripled its value since then. Despite all that... it's an RS. Oh loooordy - I want one! Great vid - great characters and cheers from your colonial off-shoot here in Oz - Dave :-)

    Sam, if you want to compare a 964RS to a sorted 964C2 you’re welcome to try my guards red modified example. It looks identical to this but with 305bhp, 993 6sp gearbox, 993 turbo brakes, Bilstein suspension, etc. There’s plenty of well sorted C2’s offering the experience at half the cost of an RS. Great video btw. 👍
