The design of this car hasn't aged at all, stunning.
That’s because it acts as a DNA template for all Porsche models throughout a 10 year period. First 5 years is subtle integrations, last 5 years is accelerated changes (taycan). In 2025 Porsche will release a new hyper car.
Absolutely true
the 2010 to 15 was the best years for supercar designs. mainly porsche, lamborghini, mclaren, ferrari, etc.
Just like the McLaren F1!
My absolute favorite Dream Car😍
Carrera GT, Porsche 918 spyder are timeless, donno how they do it, but Porsche knows how to design and engineer them this way! 918 still my dream car after all this time
The content so far this year has been your best yet.
Crazy to think it’s already about 6 years old! Time flies!
The concept version of this car is already 9 years old, being unveiled in early 2010
Aaron M I feel old, now. Thanks.
That’s my fav of the holy trinity, great video as usual James :)
se7en ok bye
@@exnihilonihilfit6316 And best sound.
@se7en you: everyone has their own opinion.
Also you: you are wrong, I am right.
Muhammad Salman 🤣
Muhammad Salman opinions can be wrong sometimes. Not talking about this perticular instance but yeah.
You are really getting the big hitters!!! A 918 and an F40 in almost consecutive videos, nice one!!!
Too bad the weather didn’t cooperate.
Just got back from a Seen Through Glass meet up here in Melbourne and came home to this video 😍 A great Saturday night!!!
Best way to start a Saturday: a new Mr JWW video!
It ages well, looks like it could just have been released.
Just like the CGT 😊
Content has been pure fire lately. Thanks James!
It’s about to get napalm!
@@MrJWW How do you see the Navi screen the steering wheel is in the way?
i wonder where mclaren got the idea for the 600LT exhaust 😂😂😂
599 GTO next for the classics series!
YES!!!!!!!
u like 599 or f12
So much this....
My dream car along with the Carrera GT
SPORTCARLUXURY ...and that 959S with 510 hp 😉
Same bro I love those shiny grilles
id have the 918 over a veyron
Ditto 👍🏻
zero question about that
Everyone would tbh
Shock ...if you think anyone would regret owning a 918, you are crazy
But what about a Chiron?
My favourite car but if you can afford it the weissach package is a must.
The 918 is truly a special car, and your coverage of it has been just as special James. Well done and love that spec.
I prefer the 918 without the Weissach Package too, I think out of the current Hypercar Holy Trinity the 918 is the best looking, its really elegant.
EDIT - WHAT. A. NOISE!
The p1 though.
I just don’t like the rims on non weissach. Looks like dicks
@@RadialSeeker113 P1 is more striking than it is beautiful
@Jake LaFerrari is the best bedroom poster if that makes sense, like the F40 or Lambo Countach in the 80s, but better looking? 🤔 Theres a legit argument for which of the Holy Trinity looks best
you must be legally blind if you can't tell the P1 from an LT@Nathaniel's Phone
I have a real soft spot for the 918. It basically does everything you want in a car from the usable e-mode to the screaming V8 with top-mounted exhausts to the all wheel drive system to the targa top.
Best looking supercar in the game.
Honestly you are the classier and with better taste for cars on UA-cam! Shmee in close 2nd! Keep the good work! :)
Best car ever! It ticks all the boxes for me: AWD, N/A engine, E-mode, removable roof, impeccable design. This is the perfect recipe for all future cars. Electric cars aren't the future, hybrid cars are!
Finally!! I've been waiting for your review for 918 for a long time!!
Agreed, James. I’ve never loved the look of the 918, and now I understand why. Most examples have all of the fussy stripes and decals which detract from the overall shape and essence of the car. This particular example is stunning! The simple shade of gray really highlights the shape of the car. It lets the design speak for itself, and it really looks fantastic. Plus just a few tasteful splashes of color detail. By far the best-looking 918 I’ve seen.
That car looks so beautiful. Damn.
One vid of Mr JWW a day keeps the boredom away
Great review again. So happy for you being able to properly enjoy and review these cars that at a young age must have seemed so far from reach. However, your persistence, a lot of behind the scenes hard work, a refined and unique palette and a maybe a dash of luck has earned you all these moments. Thank you for sharing and happy to support. Nice to see someone who truly is a car guy enjoy
Amazing car James and well done with bringing this rare spectacle to us. The 918 is indeed an amazing example of what Porsche has got going for the future. What a fantastic package.
Jww is just such a nice guy to watch to. No click bait bullshit and. Down to earth reviews
Imagine waking up and looking out your ordinary neighborhood out the window and you see the ordinary cars driving and you see a 918 quietly drive by 😂
My favorite of the 3 hypercars . Was the least hype and yet it preformed the best
I see we have the usual dedicated McLaren lovers imagining, making stuff up again!?🤭😳😆
P1's actual performance against 918 was a joke, usually. Laferrari's, very busy looking. Some people like more classic and circular lines, than all those wedges and angles.
@@exnihilonihilfit6316 this beat the p1 around the ring, laguna seca and Anglesea.. 3 very different tracks...its widely excepted thta this was a faster car than the p1 until mcclaren tweeked the p1 and put sticky tyres on it..
Too bad the p1 makes this thing look like a Camry lmao
@@ra-on6gn yeah what is the nurburgring time on p1 lol
@@betogameplaysgb937 they never revealed it I think it got beaten bey the 918 lol
I love this channel! Awesome video James
Awesome video! You’re rocking man... buy it!!!
It's like my birthday James with all this porsche Content pure classs in my book great car great insight. Cheers James 👍👍👍

Never get tired of your enthusiasm and uploads. However, speaking entirely honestly, I'm personally starting to get over the same-same soundtrack to these videos. Just IMO, I'm endlessly grateful for the uploads, please keep them coming. Thank you!
Bonkers and gobsmacked MrJWW. 918 is an amazing piece of kit. Loving the content in 2019!!
Wow James! Amazing video of an amazing hypercar.
Excellent stuff mate..keep it coming
The 918 is truly stunning. The best looking hypercar imo
Ooooh!! The excitement when you see mr JWW next to a 918 in your youtube feed!! 🙌
Thumbnail of 2019? Awesome as always mr JWW! 🚙💨💨
Thanks Joe really enjoyed sharing your 918 driving experience.
Just getting to this video, great work my friend. Awesome to see the 918 being driven on roads near my hometown that I know so well!
Simply beautiful. Thanks for the share James, absolutely incredible machine.
I enjoy how you do your best conveying the way the driving feels!
Such a great car...
I’ve seen 918 that was mother of pearl white! Wow!
My favorite car of all time. It’s just perfect!! It does everything! It goes everywhere! And it looks amazing!!
You have left me no choice but to subscribe after your last 5 videos. They were just too awesome.
YES YES YES!! My Saturday just got better! Love this Mr JWW keep it up sir! ;)
There are many times I wish I could give your videos more than one like. This car makes me a little woozy. Thanks JWW!
Thanks so much Jack 👍🏻
I gotta say that Mr JWW comes closer to that calm review style which is very watchable. Great review
*FINALLY JAMES !!* great video
Another great video James.. Keep it up, your the best youtuber.
You have been killing it James.
Brilliant review!
And i just realized we are in first month of 2019! Can't wait for the rest of the year's content.
Great vlog mate car is gorgeous
Great review. Love the part about the engine and chassis resonating.
I love the 918! Thanks for the review James!
Still one of my favourite Porsches. Great video mate.
Amazing piece of engineering! Can't imagine what it feels like to unleash that amount of torque. I always think my M3 is fast but this is insane!
Awesome video ; thanks for sharing 👍👍👍👍👍
Just watched the Grand tour first episode of season 3, incomparable.... mate you’re doing miracles, great content. I couldn’t stop comparing Jeremy’s intro of the Senna to yours, and now this no matter how many videos one watched about the 918, yours is just different. Thank you.
I hope Mrs. JWW & Mr. JWW Leggero are doing well now. Congrats.
Thanks so much!
That 918 has been my wallpaper on pc since when I saw it on your last video at DK . The meteor grey on red leather is stunning!
Great video. What a machine!!
You killed it James excellent video !!!
Thanks so much
Driving a quattro for a week now gives me a good hint of the experience you translate to yet again a great video. Thank you James!
Lovely film , ticked all the boxes ,what a car !!
That was just great what an amazing car loved it thanks James.
Lucky boy,driving that amazing car Mr JWW!
love the spec James. just a gorgeous machine. happy new year my friend. (Mike in Ohio)
What a gorgeous special spec. Thanks for showing it to us.
This is and has always been my favorite out of the holy trinity followed by the LaFerarri’s glorious v12
Just coming back to watch this, that spec is stunning!
Mr JWW in the 918...as good as it gets! Thanks for the killer content James!
One of my favorite cars, timeless design. just gotta love the launch control on this machine(Archie & nico video).although its not appropriate for a launch control due to the horrible weather. Great video James😍
love you man!!! >3 best content always :)
Instantly clicked the moment i got the notification for this video ;)
Really good review. I learned a few things, thank you.
That thing is just blazingly fast after seeing this video... Had the chance to see a couple for myself the first time some yrs back in Boston, one of them belonging to a local car magnate and it was pure heaven after hearing it revving away.
Thank you so much James Got to love a 918 :-)
They're such an amazing bit of kit indeed :-)
Still not the same visceral car that the Carrera GT is,
And if given the choice it would be the GT I'd choose :-)
Thanks for bring us this :-)
Thanks
Mark
I would take this just plain better car then the carerra gt .to each his own
:-)
Drivers like manual gear boxes 👍
Loving the direction of 2019 James👍🇦🇺
Damn, I love this car. Nice review brother. Getting your butt into one of those is a real privilege.
What a classy spec. Love it!
my favourite youtuber for cars. so humble and you should be on top gear
Nice one James!
James, what a car, shame it wasn’t a sunny day, beautiful spec and timeless style, hasn’t aged a day.
The car suits you well! Great video as always
Engineering brilliance
best exhaust game in the business
Gorgeous Porsche 918 Spyder!!!
My favourite car by quite a distance keep up the quality vids mr Jww. It’s just the sound they really do master it when they try . The carerra gt sounded epic and this for me just sounds that little bit better . Best engineers hands down
Wow! This is FANTASTIC Car! Thanks!
My favorite Porsche and one of the best cars ever engineered . Ultra performance to me is more important then sound. Any car can sound good but mind bending performance that's alot rarer. Still the car sounds good too
Hypercars are just next level
