The Porsche Carrera GT is my all-time favorite car. Today I'm reviewing the Carrera GT to show you around the greatest supercar of all time, and I'm going to show you all the quirks and features of the Porsche Carrera GT. I'm also driving the Carrera GT to tell you what it's like behind the wheel of such a special car.

And approximately 2 years later Doug bought the CGT! What a legend!
THIS is true
That's right 👍
Well deserved
2020 Doug: I just wish I could afford it.
2023 Doug: hehe boy
Do you think you will afford your dream car?
@@bobhey4969yes
2023: just getting fatter and I’ll be good to retire from reviews and then CAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRSSSSSS AND BIDS!!!! will take over.
@@bobhey4969hell yeahh

If only Doug knew that 2 years later he would call a Carrera GT his… Well deserved!

Carrera GT: a car so nice, it gets a Doug Score twice.
Julius Conservicus III ahaha I got the moto moto reference
Hi Julius!
Me sitting here wondering if ive slipped into an alternate reality where he hasnt already reviewed this car.
Doug: "that was fitted with all sorts of "
Me: "Quirks and features?"
Doug: "nooks and crannies"
Also check out Doug Discord Server
discord.gg/SWxqCGV
i knew my brain wasn't messing with me
Only OG’s will remember Doug’s original Carrera GT video
yea what happened to it??
I'm confused why hes doing another review
yeah why is he doing it again?
Watched it again before starting this hahah
Major Yates he’s way more in depth now, the original video only touched on a few points
Doug is the type of guy to work hard and achieve his dream of owning his dream car
I really hope that one day we will have a "This is my Carrera GT" video
@@russianmaniac3125 finaly happened !!
@@martinelantraratedn yes. Dreams really do come true.
Dougs wife: how do I look?
Doug: Styling is average nothing great and gets a 6 out of 10
This Cerrera GT is the most impressive car ever built and I give it a Doug score of 7 out of 10. This Toyota Carolla is the most pedestrian, boring appliance ever built and I give it a Doug score of 7 out of 10.
That made me laugh way more than it should have 😂😂😂
Doug: ''That puts you in 3rd place, just under Jennifer.''
Doug's wife: ''...who?''
😆😆😆😆
Doug: Let's discuss your quirks and features.
Doug 2025. "I 've already reviewed the Carrera GT twice but it was a long time ago and I didn't get as in depth back in '16 and '20 as I do now and I think it deserves a third look"
Actually he will do a video in 2025 explaining why he sold his Ford GT and got thissssss.
*1hr videos*
he just does it so he could drive it again lol
🤣🤣🤣
@@vermilgates lmaooooo I didn't even think about it like that ur prolly right
You did it Doug, you bought one...
Doug exudes such joy in every video that I can't possibly imagine my favourite car in the whole world getting a 71 out of 100 on any scale.
That’s how you can tell that he actually loves this car, he can recognize and admit the flaws, and yet they don’t matter to him.
Doug is the type of guy who reviews a car twice cause he just wants to get the chance to drive it again
You should post that on Doug Discord Server
discord.gg/SWxqCGV
He also drove the land cruiser twice
every car guy would do that
I'd review the CGT 80 times just to drive it.
He's reviewed the r8 like 5 times...
Doug 3 years ago: “THIS is my favourite car”. Doug now: “oh btw THISSSSS is my favourite car”
Sounds of maturity
Well. Congrats Doug
Doug said "I always wanted one" and fast forward he bought one
“Nothing particularly weird, interesting, or special about this door panel” Door panel is literally sculpted out of carbon fiber
And the side airbag is in it xD
@@josemanuel5749 and neither of those things are all that special, at that price thats standard. also they dont 'sculpt' carbon fiber, its covered in a resin and cured in a mold, before that its soft like a fabric
@@bradhaines3142 the thing that's the most special about the entire door itself is that it's THICK.
he was talking about the door handle and not the panel, but point taken, it is like a sculpture
Door panel literally looks like something out of a 2050 car.
Doug "I'm going to review my favorite car twice just so I can drive it again." DeMuro
big brain
This car has a auora about it
And who wouldn't!?
That's why he's making videos and I'm watching em!
I approve this approach.
This man just bought one. I can’t believe it! Congrats Doug!
That is not a car...
Its a piece of history!!!!
it is a car tho
This beast SMOKED the blacklist in NFS Most Wanted
Yeeah i do it with the same
This beast also killed Paul Walker unfortunately... :((
Hence why you’ll unlock it so late in the game lol
@@satanasatana7931 *happily
I would like Doug to review a custom made M3 GTR.
I love how Doug doesn’t have a picture of him and his wife for his background he’s got a car.
The Carrara GT is his wife lol
That’s just marriage
People don’t work on backgrounds, cars or landscapes do
In my opinion
He just changed it, before it was THIS in bold letters
Baron B. Lol 😂
Who’s here after Doug’s video of buying a CGT?
🙋
I've only ever seen one of these. It was around the time they first came out. I was at a red light at the very front of the intersection, and in the perpendicular lane, 5 feet from my front bumper, a silver one like this one flew by me and it felt like the earth was shaking with how loud the exhaust was. It was one of the most insane car experiences I've ever had.
"So yeah, no drugs in this car, officer."
"You think I haven't seen the video? Pop the door trunk."
Jajajsjsja.
Qué gracioso!!!!
It's called a drunk
@@chrisgomez3078 Ha, good one!
@@JohnSmith-gs4zv lol, yeah sure you are..
Taking notes so you can go on creating crime & criminals is wrong. It's too bad those officers, didn't spend their time doing a job that's more productive for society.
Yeah, because street level drug dealers cruise these regularly.
Doug: "One of the best exhausts in history."
Me: Raising volume
Doug: "Which you will hear in a few minutes."
:-(
It was worth the wait...omg, it sounds like an Formula 1 race car.
Yeah, he got me too lol.
How to unsub real quick.
on the same boat, hahaah
lmao same
Congratulations!!
No details left unturned.
Doug love your enthusiasm and attention to detail
Bravo,I hope you continue your excellent reviews for years to come
Haven't got to the Doug Score yet but I'm guessing part of it goes like this:
"This is my favorite car of all time so for cool factor I give it a 6 out of 10"
He gave it a 2 for cool factor and a 9 for practicality
acceleration does 0 to 60 in 3.6 seconds so it gets a 2.
It's relative, Einstein...
LOL
because a lot of people don’t know what this car is sadly
I was like “you already reviewed this car” but I’m not gonna complain
I'm not either.
I would watch this again tomorrow if he did another review tbh.
Prolly bc he likes TTTHHISSS car so much.
I would watch him review a toaster TBF. His attention to detail is amazing.
@@rem45acp "As you can see the body here is made of crappy plastic which doesn't look so good... probably one of the drawbacks of this toaster."
Ended up behind one of these as we both turned into a gas station. I was getting gas. He went into the store and came out with a half-rack of Miller Highlife. A half million dollar car, and about as low grade beer as one can buy.
Different strokes for different folks.
The Miller High Life is for the blinker fluid reservoir.
Yesterday I was behind a Ferrari 458 in the Tim Hortons drive thru and it looked like he paid for his coffee with all quarters.
More like 2 million $ car nowadays, at least😂
Watching Doug drive this... The pure joy. One of my favorite things about his videos.
Doug: *uploads his second Carrera GT video*
Me: *Instant Click*
G
Same.
instant like too 😂
Yeah I could have sworn he already did this car. Thanks for confirming. I'm surprised he didn't do this on more Doug because that's what he usually does for cars very similar to ones he's done before.
greatsayain probably because this is such a clickable car and he can give a refreshed look at it.
I really hope Doug gets to realize his dream and own a Carrera GT.
Ive seen like 4 different people say this exact same thing wtf 😂
@@BADBADGER18 I mean some people are actually genuine and wish good things upon others nothing wrong with that my man
@@BADBADGER18 Same, like exactly the EXACT same thing.
Why did you think he started Cars and Bids? :)
@@BADBADGER18 Why can’t people just be nice?
Had to see this one after you bought yours! Congrats, Doug! You made it! 😀
Aaand you've got it. Congrats 🔥
_The Carrera GT and the Lexus LFA are the best sounding cars EVER._
*street cars
Uilliam56 X the Ferrari flat 12s with individual throttle bodies are on the same level
@@roddydykes7053 true,but that v10 sound though.Also these two cars aren't produced anymore, ferrari v12 are "not that rare" if that is appropriate lol.
I mean it was the first and LAST v10 from street legal porsches
And the Lamborghini Murcielago SV
Pagani (eg cinque) also nice
Doug used the drive-by camera while he was driving. First time in a couple years!
I hope he did it more often... I like it a lot
Ikr, I liked that about his murcielago video back in the day, a car that imo sounds a bit better than the Carrera gt which isnt easy whatsoever to beat
Finally!
The LFA video is the last one I saw that had drive-bys, and he even mentioned it in this video.
He made a vid about the Carrera GT a few years ago
I saw this car once when I was young at a car show in Houston Texas. I was about 10 or 11 and I knew I was looking at an absolute legendary super car. What a beautiful machine...
Doug, I don't know how old you are, but YOU ARE THE BEST car reviewer of all time. No one else reviews every aspect of a car like you. You are the go-to person for anyone looking for detailed information on the cars you feature in your videos. You leave no stone unturned. I really enjoy your thorough reviews and because of that, I am a subscriber.
Doug is a smart man ..he can never forget his anniversary since its also the date he saw his first love 😂😂😂😂
OOF
lol
The Carrera GT was the final and most savage car you got to unlock on Need For Speed: Most Wanted 2005 !!
@Emilio Vicente Do you still cheat, like in life?
Along with the SLR McLaren
But literally everyone used the Carrera GT for racing against Razor
It wasn’t a car in that game. It was a vehicular hurricane.
And the sound was glorious
@@kb0x And then there's me, challenging Razor in a TT
Im here to report that Doug now owns a Porsche Carrera GT
It’s really cool too see you so happy reviewing something that you love keep it up
Doug the type of guy to choose his wedding date based off the date of a first encounter with a car
He is some how a bigger nerd than I thought. Actually pretty endearing
Makes me want to give him a hug
Doug created his UA-cam channel for one reason: to drive a Carrera GT for free!!
And I applaud him for it. The Carrera GT is aspirational for just about all petrol-heads.
Absolutely! I'd love to just have a ride in one!
Not only free, he gets paid to do it
No kidding! Dream job!
Twice!
Just recently found your channel and man this is my favorite car ever made!! Thanks for showing everyone why it was and in my opinion still is one of the best Porsche ever built.
I completely understand why you love it so much! Absolutely fell in love with it myself (even though I already really liked the car) and I'm absolutely amazed at the level of engineering that has gone into this car. Certainly something special and it really shows :)
I remember when I was 13, my dad and I rented a Mercedes to go on the Autobaun. We were going about 110 mph when all of the sudden two Carrera GT's flew past us. It was probably the only time I've ever cussed in front of my dad. He didn't mind.
And thats when you became a car guy for life :)
U must not live in the us
all I see is dodges and fords :(
@@ccxgamerlynx the same here bmw´s and mercedes everywhere but no charger, chalenger or galaxie , mustangs, pinto´s(?) or thunderbirds
Lucky
I love cars
I saw a video on the autobahn of a cobra and 2 carrera Gt flew past it
The Carrera GT doesn't get a Doug Score.
Doug gets a Carrera GT score.
Yeah, That's a nice ride !
props to the owner for allowing Doug to drive it...favorite part of every video....hats off to ya sir...thank you
some day Doug will own this car.......oh wait
"My favorite thing in the engine compartment is this little screwdriver" 😂 DOUG IS THAT TYPE OF GUY!!
That was one of the most Doug things I've ever seen. Opens the compartment of this monstrous, super famous engine and goes straight for the screwdriver. Please never change, Doug.
He gets more excited over car-branded tools than any person ever should be.
Never change Daddy Doug
It's a custom Snap on ratchet driver.
I feel like i am learning more Doug lore when he talks about his life
Toto X Create a Wikipedia page
@@ethxannnn if anyone does link it in Doug Discord Server

This is it right here, this is the manga
DOUG IS PURPLE GUY
Who's here after he bought one?
Me! :)
Looks like a 2020 model year car, the design was ahead of it's time.
I love how Noodle is just casually sitting in the passenger seat of the G Cabriolet
😆
hair with a nose
Icelandic Cubicle 😂
literally just vibing.
He’s like: “wtf is that thing pointed at me? Ehh whatever, this car hella comfy”
Doug is a type of guy who reviews his favorite car for the 2nd time
Daniel Lec I would
In the spirit of German precision, the center lock wheel nuts are "reverse thread," not 'cross threaded.' That is what would happen if you forced the lug nut onto the lug by turning it clockwise. And only the passenger side wheels are like this, so that the centripetal force of the wheel can't loosen them.
This is the quintessential Doug car. So glad he's finally got the chance to own one!
You can clearly see Doug loves the car. Someone sell one to him at a good price, because that will probably be the most driven, cherished carrera GT.
Honestly considering a "Finally Get Doug His Carrera GT" GoFundMe.
@@camree_trdee6628 Do something useful instead. Help the homeless for instance. Other than helping someone who's already loaded buy a $1m supercar.
I am pretty sure Doug is on his way to afford one,with his channel , cars and bids and who knows what else,
Nice sock account, Doug.
@@camree_trdee6628 man are you really that detached from reality?
Doug is a very likable guy, but he very clearly already made a fortune for himself with this videos and the percentage he gets from every car sold on carsandbids.
And he of course knows that, so I really don’t think he would accept donations from everyday people, just to get him a super car.
Is he’s any of the persona he’s trying to sell us, he’d instantly give the donated money away for a good cause..
Doug is the type of guy to have a wedding on the same date he saw a car
You should post that on Doug Discord Server
discord.gg/SWxqCGV
Any time he forgets his wedding anniversary, he remembers the day of the Carrera GT and adds a year.
This is the "Doug the type of guy" meme in its purest most accurate form 😅
His Mind is like " Oh Carrera GT anniversary" and then a few sec later... and also my Wedding anniversary
Doug bought one today!!!
I could literally listen to that exhaust note all day every day. Pure bliss!
Doug: “My all time favorite car”
Also doug: 71/100
Sometimes things like paintings or sculptures are famous because they’re flawed or have an interesting story
I really hope Doug gets to realize his dream and own a Carrera GT.
At the end of the day, Doug needs to be objective with what he is reviewing, especially for cars that he considers as his favorites.
just because its his favourite doesnt mean he can give it a 100, because there is criteria too meet that. it cant be 100 because its not practical, not a daily driver and not very fuel efficient.
To those saying he’s being objective, he’s the furthest thing from it. Dougs entire score is subjectively based
I thought you bought one for a moment, hopefully once those cars and bids commissions start rolling in 😉
If that website gets any traction Doug will be a wealthy man.
You bet he will buy one eventually if it really is his favorite

Amazing car. Thanks for reviewing it and thanks to the owner for making this possible.
I just love how you able to enjoy your dream car man, this was truly a special moment for you. I can see the happiness in this video and I’m grateful to see a true child at heart, please continue to do more videos like this. It’s truly inspiring, thank you so much for this 🎉😊😊❤
The warning label for the spoiler is called “A SPOILER ALERT” :0)
Underrated comment
Person: “why do you like this car so much?” Doug: “because of the Rocket launcher, engine thrusterssssss”
Your wedding anniversary got me so good 😂😂😂 that exhaust note tho!! Best sound ever !
Coming back here as commemoration to Doug’s new Carrera GT 🥳
Need for Speed: Most Wanted has entered the chat
Sergeant Cross: “EVERYONE!!”
Hey hotshot! Thanks for helping us out. We've been able to arrest every Blacklist racer thanks to you! Now, I'd take that into consideration if you give yourself up! So what's it gonna be?
NFS made me fall in love with this car
Everyone?
Yeah.... This is the number 15th guy from the blacklist!
Best NFS ever
I feel like doug reviewed this again just to drive it again
Waiting for the next review in 2021? :D
37:58 right in the feels
That engine sound makes me VERY excited! I can see why it's your favorite car ever made. 😍
14:03 Doug says center locked wheels are "cross-threaded." I think you mean reverse-threaded. Cross threading is bad, reverse threading is OK.
Just remember that Doug is the type of guy to not know what the silver button on the floor of 60's/70's eras cars was for....(on the left almost under the emergency brake pedal)
I came here to say this
Only wheels on the right side of the car. Ones on the left are normal thread direction.
Left Hand Thread
Expecting Doug to know what he's talking about in his reviews is like expecting cat poop to smell like fresh ice cream cones. I come here for the rare funny analysis and the reoccurring proof that anyone can make it in this world if they stick to a format.
2024: THIS is Porsche Carrera GT and it's mine.
Wish You that Doug! 😉
I think we should start a gofundme for Doug specifically to buy a Carrera GT. at $1 per subscriber he’d be more than set. The caveat is that he’d have to hold a raffle every month to give one of his donors a drive in the car.
I wish we could see that some day. I bet he will just not be able to talk at the beginning of the video.
Why are you guys acting like Doug couldn't just go out and buy one tomorrow if he wanted to?
@@JoeBlue415 Imagine starting a gofundme for a dude that has a stable job. If you have extra money donate it to a charity, a good cause, a children's hospital, hell, any hospital. Or just save it for yourself. Donating to a UA-camr who has a comfortable sub count is almost as bad as donating to BLM.
Alex Bubis Bruhhhhhhhhhhh
who is here after Doug got his own CGT?
I'd love to hear Doug's thoughts on Gordon Murray's T.50, since that's a modern analogue sports car being developed purely to have the best possible driving feel. I imagine it would tick many of the same boxes as this car
Doug: "This car is perfect!"
Doug Score: 71 out of 100
You’re one of those morons huh
be glad that just because it’s his favorite car doesn’t mean he’s automatically biased and scores it higher than he would other cars
48/50 weekend score is near perfect, obviously it's going to suck in daily category
PQTH can’t take a joke ?
Manuel Sousa how is that a joke? It’s not funny and it’s just another person that somehow doesn’t grasp dougs scoring system
"No other car sounds like this."
LFA: Hold my Asahi.
He mentioned the LFA..
The Carerra GT sounds just a bit better sounding if you ask me.But the LFA has an amazing sound too.Its like the "budget" Carerra GT😂
Dont forget about the v10 bmw m6
The Carrera would run circles around a LFA tho
@@ourfutureisdark wrong, the LFA nurburgring edition in 2010 set the lap record at the time of 7:14 faster than pretty much everycar with stock road tires whilst all the competitors used slick tires.
I understand perfectly why it's your all time favorite car, it looks and sounds AMAZING, beautiful inside and out, and with a glorious engine compartment. Aesthetically even it's a perfectly up to date supercar.
Yeah, every inch of the car seems so well thought out and designed. I love the 90s supercars but they didn't put a ton of though into the cabin/user experience lol.
In 2006 I was working at a F-car dealer and we had one of these traded in. As is the usual with trade-ins, ALL of us got to spend some time with her (couldn't find a buyer for weeks!!!!) and I share *everything* Doug says. ESPECIALLY the driver's position and controls. I've never sat in a more comfortable car that was waiting for me to be the last piece of the puzzle. - A year later we were doing a Brian Redman Vintage event down at Roebling Road and a husband and wife had a his and hers they'd run between sessions. It was absolutely fascinating to see how fast and smooth they moved around the track. Truly beautiful and special machines. Probably the ONLY car from that era I would buy if I could.
Doug: “Can I borrow your Carrera GT”.
Tom: “Can I borrow a few million of your subscribers”.
Seems like a fair trade, win-win
Mickael Blake 50/50 deal
Hahahahahahah
Yes, without even thinking
"The Carrera GT is the greatest car ever put on the road"
Several months earlier
"McLaren F1 is the best car ever made and nothing else beats it"
Well the F1 is better technically yes, but the gt is more pure to me. I'd still take the F1 though.
The GT is his personal favorite car of all time. So to him I'm sure it is the best car ever made, but Doug recognizes the F1 is overall better and more widely known in the car world to be the best.
I'll give him this one, in the sense that he is quite explicit about this one being HIS personal favorite.
As opposed to the F1 being a community consensus over multiple individual's opinions
Both are very amazing cars in their own way
Also when he reviewed the f1 he wasn't allowed to drive it so he doesn't really know how it feels behind the wheel.
Watching this after DDE's latest video.
Doug's eyes get DREAMY WHEN GOING FAST @36:33👀🤣👍
If dug speaks about his wife the way he does this car she’s the luckiest woman alive haha Edit: the replies to this comment are either me calling him dug or a strange fantasy about dougs love life haha
This is my wife and she is my all time favorite wife, I’ve married a lot of women but she is my number one hahahah
He’s tasteless
@@BartoszMichowiczBVB Sounds like Donald Trump
"today I'm going to show you around all the weird quirks and features and give her a Doug Score..."
that exhaust note sounds like my wife yelling at me, loud, kinda sexy, but can't understand one word she says
If we all donate a dollar, we can get Doug the nicest Carrera GT for his wedding anniversary this year
And if everyone gives two dollars, yo all can buy me one too.
What about me :(
Best idea ever hopefully it blows up
You people are stupid enough to do this too lol
@@lauraspitz440 nice one😂😂
I always vacillate between this and the 959 as my favorite all time!
this has also been my favorite car ever since I laid eyes upon it. when I first started playing Forza motorsport in 2011, i fell in love with this car.
Why do I feel like I’ve seen this before
Because he had reviewed it already this is an updated more in-depth review back then he didn't explore quirks and features as much
49Cent ok you have he did a review of this thing ages ago
that's what you get for typing before watching, Doug addresses this in the video
3:09
Shhh nobody can know
Stradman: "What hypercar should I buy?"
Doug: "Well..."
Thiiiiisssssss
doug did say that the lfa sounds better and strad is all about that sound
@@tree9380 in my opinion the carrera gt sounds better and is MUCH cooler
@@pawelodziomek4908 i think the carrera is cooler because its got a V10 manual but if you look at his choices a LFA wouldnt be bad. He (stradman) could buy several other cars in addition to the LFA if he did since its kind of underrated
@@tree9380 of the ones stradman showed, it'd have to be Hennessy Venom or McLaren p1
this is so fun to watch now
You made it Doug , congrats 👍
Doug's passion for the Carrera GT almost seems sexual
Gaming ASMR yea
It turns me on
he thinks of this car when he's making love to his wife
@@frogturtle nice
Frogturtle xd doug the type of guy to propose to a carrera gt
14:03 The center locks aren't crossed threaded, they are reverse threaded (they tighten to the left) Cross threaded means the threads are messed up and u can not tighten them down.
Blue (right) nuts reverse threaded, Red (left) nuts "normal" thread. Both so they tighten as the wheels turn and not come undone :P
Funny, I was just thinking I would be fearful of accidentally cross threading the one big center hub lock, when Doug then misuses the cross threaded term. He misspeaks a lot lately I have noticed. Like I watched a review a while back where he complained about a 370z not having a spare when the rubber of the spare could be seen under a panel in the shot. Which was odd being that he spends so much time focusing on details.
Caught this too haha. Cross-threading those wheel locks would be an expensive day...
Doug is the king of having one single detail he'll miss that has you like wha?
Like none of you ever make mistakes pfff
Thank's Doug, cool car, cool owner... A friend of mine has one, every time he drives between villages you think Formula 1 is around the corner.... What a sound, I always get goosebumps...
I love the simple beauty of the interior and prettymuch everything else about this car!
