    Since this comment section is full of ignorance: I'm not surprised this car went for that money. The RS 2.7 is pretty much the dream 911, above all vintage 911's. I'd buy it and drive it as much as possible - even with that kind of price tag.

      Well, it wouldn't have been this specific car. Porsche built a few Carreras with the 2.7L later on, but the RS is special in that the whole body is made of thinner gauge steel - giving it a much lighter weight. The car your friend had wouldn't have had the same performance and handling for this reason. Still cool, though.

      And this is not the tin can Rennsport. It’s the touring version. Notice the door panel pockets and touring seats.

      It was Paul walkers. Also helped Porsche in their rally days when it came to having road legal going cars for homologation rules😃

    • @all-flat-engines
      @all-flat-engines Год назад +5

      Thinner glass, thinner gauge of steel, higher rev’ing motor, better engine and oil cooling, shorter gear ratio’s, slightly larger brakes, no sound deadening, completely different interior, very low production numbers, homologation special and the very first “RS” (Renn-sport) car.

    I wonder if,at the end of the Roman Empire, they had auctions like this. ‘Here we have an absolutely stunning, gold and jewel encrusted, mint condition, solo chariot. Once driven by Judas, this beauty is an incredibly important model in its own right’. The sound of Nero fiddling in the background would be awesome.
    I really do love classic cars and capitalism, but this sure makes one wonder.

    what do you do with this when they ban the sale of gasoline?.....living room display next to the grand piano?...Jeevs its time to dust the gas burner!

    • @kylem324
      @kylem324 Год назад +1

      In the US, banning gasoline isn’t likely to ever happen. In the future, there might be regions where you might not be able to operate an ICE 🚗, such as a city centre. Or you pay a fee/tax. Other options could be the use of synthetic fuels in development, or one could distill their own ethanol from biomass. The same will likely be true in most countries.
