    5:17 this car is registered in Stuttgart Germany... the car was also driven by Walter Rohrl, this exact vehicle during Porsche launch events..

      @muzz9694 6 месяцев назад +58

      But its not the official license plate, because in the back the "Baden Württemberg" flag is missing, what is mandatory in germany. And S-GO are official license plates from Porsche itself, so it might be just a fake. Not the car, but the plates

      @xxfl4shb4ngx 6 месяцев назад +29

      But it is missing both the mandatory TÜV plaque and the registration plaque of the state it is supposed to be registered in, so it's probably just a replica. Maybe the owner forgot to change them back to US plates after a car show or car meet.

      It’s just a German plate the dude ordered online. If it would (have been) a genuine registration it would either have the stickers on it or residue from where they were removed. Also because S GO is a typical Porsche press car plate, the dude probably just wanted his “euro-mod” stand out from the guys that leave the export plates from the European delivery programme on their car
