      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.”_

    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.

  • @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

  • @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

      @2702simmo 2 года назад +1

    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!

  • @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!

  • @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.

    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.

  • @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.

  • @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.

    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!

  • @bisondacierr
    @bisondacierr 2 года назад +1

    There is no 964 Carrera S, this came with the 993 only, but for sure a 964 C2 feels 80% like an 964 RS. It's not like today where everything is completely different. Back then it was it was 99% the same engine, lighter flywheel, bigger brakes, manual steering rack, 100kgs lighter, some gears shorter and that's basically it. So it's almost more GT3 to GT3RS difference.

    You guys are talking about confidence in the car. I drove an audi tt face-lift the other day, took it to some twisty roads that I've taken my shitty old Metro GTi to a lot. What I've decided is that 4 tyres can only produce so much grip. The audi inspired confidence to a level, but it actually couldn't keep up with that confidence. Managed to get a twitch on when I thought it would be fine.
    The old Metro is good, especially for 1992. It's not quite as tight, but it's completely predictable. (now it's fixed.) You don't go quite as balls out as you feel you can in the audi, but it allows you to build up to it. Now I am biased because I know that Metro quite well, and it was my first time in the audi, but even then, it surprised me how quick I found it's limit.
    One thing that really impressed me about the TT though, was how easy it was in town. You have this car that sods off when you want it to, but around town I found it as chill and relaxed to drive as an automatic Peugeot. The Metro doesn't do that. It has a lot of NVH. Comfortable enough that usually I don't notice, but it was night and day between the cars in town

    The MG was originally a QVALE Mangusta and I owned one #116 of 289 built!!

    Nice to see some classic cars! You should visit The Gallery in Brummen, also here in the Netherlands. That place is really special
