    Who can spot the 3 retro nuggets? First one is easy but anyone else spot the others? 👀

      Clean car, I’ve got the white linen interior as well on my Marine Blau ‘87. Throw a Momo wheel on & turbo tie rods you’ll appreciate the enhanced steering feel. My speedo doesn’t have the inner ring with the Km indices. I caught the cube with the techno pop....Talking Heads, Pretenders & Stevie Ray Vaughn for this side of the pond.
      I’ve had my Carrera since ‘99 I’ll never sell her -recent rebuild cost as much as I paid for the car but worth it....better to be driven daily than just on Sundays that’s for the Ladies of Ferrari. Warm it up and drive hard, you can’t hurt them!

    Great video. Back in 1994 I bought a champagne 1984 that was very similar to this one - whale tail (which I never cared for), body-colored Fuchs wheels (which I did). It was my daily driver. Even then it was a bit of a step backward technologically, mostly bc of the lack of power steering. But every time I saw it parked in the driveway, or especially took it out for a spin, it brought me so much joy.
    I recently watched your video on the Tesla Model 3. I have a 2022 M3 LR. I know this comparison will sound sacrilegious but it also brings me joy. It’s an engineering marvel that I actually find fun to drive. Practical, blindingly quick, very precise steering, and like the 911, a little bit stiff. I do miss that Porsche, but I’m excited about the future of cars..

      Hi Wensley, thank you for watching both videos. Grateful you took the time 🙏🏻 I really believe both ICE and EV can co exist harmoniously without pledging allegiance to either side haha! they’re just difference and like you I enjoyed both, equally but differently.

    You hit the nail on the head, there is no substitute for the sensation a classic car gives you. I continue to enjoy our '96 993 C2 😊

    This video is spot on - I have had my '87 911 for 30 years now and I will never get rid of it - it is an analog driving experience in today's purely digital world

    I added a Wevo shifter and racing helicopter coupler to my 1982 911SC and it made the 915 gearbox feel like a new car.

    Weird to think that 200 ish BHP today is pretty average from any 1.6 - 2.0 engines and not even extraordinary, and back 30-40 years ago it was the pinnacle of power.
    Great video 😊

    I have seen that car and it’s delightful. Your comments about more of this and that are bang on. I think that maybe the only recent car from a major manufacturer that fits that less is more ethos is the GR-86. Enough power and nice and simple.

    • @GoksCarLounge
      @GoksCarLounge  6 місяців тому

      Very interesting you say that, after I said it, I did take a moment to think “is there actually anything out there” and the GR86 was the immediate car that came to mind! Thanks dude :)

    Congrats, you are a true Petrol Head. Especially for being spot on describing the analog qualities of a G Pcar from your first drive. Suggest you drive a updated G body with a Wevo shifter, uprated motor with 20/21, LS with exhaust and tune. Electric AC is my next upgrade and yes I own and built a 87 3.4 ST backdate and a 88 3.4 steel turbo body-my true obsession and passion for over 20 years. There are no cars like the 87-89 G50 Pcars.

      "There are no cars like the 87-89 G50 Pcars" That's laughable. Do you honestly think the 915 cars are so different?

    Lovely content and style of presentation. Captures the emotion rather than the boring statistics that we all know. Also totally agree on the size point re the 992. Interested in your views on the cayman / boxster models, seem to capture a little more or the original porsche essence and usefully smaller.
