  • Please Turn Closed Captions On To Enjoy This Film In English.
    This week we are back in Germany with a beautiful 1958 356A 1600 Super. Its owner, Sebastian Wolff, has experienced plenty of Porsches in his time-just watch him riding the diesel tractor to the barn where he makes the switch to the significantly sportier for proof-but he makes no airs of being an expert on the marque. Rather than memorize decimals and stats, the enjoyment is found in the action of driving the car on country roads, or simply admiring the 356 at rest, taking in the distinct curves wearing the elegant shade of Meissen Blue. There’s no wrong way to express your passion for Porsche, but we tend to favor Sebastian’s approach: find a road far removed from the stress of urban density, literally unplug from the nagging call of constant connectivity, and submerge yourself in the joys of driving a simple but engaging sports car.

      You're right, most Germans are incomprehensible, this guy actually makes this language sound half decent, which is a great feat.

    • @holgerrapp801
      @holgerrapp801 5 лет назад +2

      I agree. This whole episode sounds completely scripted. How he speaks sounds like acting, what he says is like written by an algorithm. "I like the colour and the smell of the car." Of course. I wouldn't be surprised if this wasn't even his car.

    My absolute favorite year. the '58/59 have that beautiful A styling with a bit more mechanical sophistication. Herr Wolff's example is simply beautiful and you can feel his passion. Listening to it in German let me disconnect from the actual words and experience the orchestral beauty of the film. Wonderful. Thanks! F

    I own my grandfathers '63 356C in Meissen Blue with a red interior. I've never been a huge fan of blue cars esp darker blue. But never has a color fit a car better than does Meissen Blue on a 356. In fact I've been toying with the idea of buying my first "modern" Porsche (finances won't allow me a brand new one so I've been looking at a couple pre-owned Cayman variants) but as a tribute to both my grandfather's car and vintage Porsche's in general, it'll certainly be Meissen Blue/Red. Another bang up job from Petrolicious!

    • @erichakanson7010
      @erichakanson7010 6 лет назад

      Abul Mamodo I know, I was just saying I didn't really like blue cars esp dark blue cars. I didn't mean for it to sound like I was saying Meissen is a dark blue. The only blue colors I like are obviously Meissen along with Porsche's Miami Blue and BMW's Yas Marina Blue, which are all lighter hues. I just don't think sports cars look good in darker blue hues.
