Grab an HD camera, go back there, film this again, work some nice music and send it to Stuttgart and you'll be featured in the Porsche Museum for sure :) Stunning scenery and an EPIC mint condition 911. Take good care of it! Thank you! You made my day, sir!
Alex, forget the music part. The music coming from this 2.4 motor is what people want to hear. I can't stand UA-cam car vids that run music over the motor sound. Thankfully the guy who made this great video left it out.
Wow, so nice. It is great how some things that are simple and uncomplicated have such appeal. A beautiful shape and great sound. Thanks for sharing and enjoy.
That's an absolutely beautiful work of art and a brilliantly well made video! I love everything about it! The location, the sound, the scenery, the camera angles the commentary! Thank you for making my day! I will save this and watch it often! Makes me smile! 🙂
I am about to restore an Ex-Madrid, 1969 911S, from bare metal. Great to see your lovely T working so well. Mine's LHD too, but that's OK in New Zealand.
You got me wrong, i also hate music over the engine sounds. I was just complimenting his car and i'm sure it will make a nice featured commercial or even an article about his vehicle if he would make a soulful presentation! Cheers!
Living in Sydney...... I live in Sydney too. Have You been looking at or have you bought A Porsche since living here? How do prices for Classic 911's weigh up here compaired to USA. I'm an Air Cooled fan myself owning a VW Beetle. I feel now that I want to upgrade to a 911. I was looking at 912's but they quit expensive for less horse power, therefore the 911 is the way to go. Please give me any pointers on what I should be looking for when buying a 911. I'm favouring a 1980 911SC.
Nice car, but why are you reving the shyt out of it? Upsift when you can and rev match when you down shift. Much more fun than just on and off the gas. Problem with the brakes? Perhaps a few laps at a local track with an instructor? Anyway, beautiful car!
+You're The One TV Always There's always "some know-it-all" in the comments section. Just what this video needed. We get it, you think you can drive better.
+inturn23 Sorry, didn't mean to offend. I'm certainly not a "know it all", and I can admit when I don't know things. What I can say is that I have experience driving a Porsche around racetracks and have been blessed with some instruction. In my opinion, your driving style on the twisty public road section of the video could stand to be improved. However, having videoed myself in my cars as well, I realize it isn't always easy to talk and drive aggressively. In the end, the video is about that gorgeous car of yours, not you or me. Love your car! Take care.
+You're The One TV No offense taken, sir. Maybe by getting some lessons from you I won't rev the shyt out of my 911. I didn't even notice I was doing that. What else am I doing wrong?
+inturn23 Hi again. My name is Mike by the way. I watched your video again and I am still drooling over your car. It is in remarkable condition. Inside and out. I just love the Porsche 911. Not too fond of the water cooled versions though. Although the 2.4 L engine likes to rev, I did think you were staying in the upper end of the tach unnecessarily for extended periods of time on the public road section. It looks like you were using the engine breaking to slow you down for, and through the corner. Heel and toe driving is a skill used to rev the engine for downshifts while pressing on the brake at the same time. This can take quite a lot of practice to get it right, especially with the floor mounted pedals. Rev matching is used to match engine speed with road speed before letting the clutch out. It facilitates less wear on the clutch and does not upset the car as much. Your shifting technique looks good as I know the early gearboxes were a little balky. It seems you were in 3rd all the time. I would have up shifted to 4th and then before the corner, brake hard and downshift to 3rd at the same time using the heel-toe technique. All braking and downshifting should be finished before you put the car into the turn because it could upset the vehicle if done in mid turn. Now, with the 911 you will want to stay on the gas a bit as you move through the turn, then hit it hard just before the exit to settle that rear end down and give you max traction and avoid wild over steer. The other thing I noticed was you kept dropping your left hand to the lower part of the steering wheel when turning right. Hook your thumbs over the T portions of that gorgeous Prototipo wheel and keep them there, unless you are shifting. With your hand on the lower portion of the wheel you could loose control or hurt your hand if you drop a tire onto the shoulder and the wheel kicks back at you. You undoubtedly are having a ball driving your car and frankly I wish I could experience it. All this takes time and practice. Give it a try and do your best to stay smooth instead of jerky. As they same "Smooth is fast." Wishing you the best with your car. Take care, Mike.
You're The One TV Mike, let me tell you a little bit about this particular 72' 911 you're watching in my video. My passion for Porsches started back in October of 1971, when I was 14 years old. It all started one day as I was walking home from school & passed by a showroom they used to have in downtown Santa Barbara. They were displaying the gorgeous 1972 Porsche 911. I had never before seen something so luxurious & sporty. That was my first introduction to the 911s. I immediately fell in love with the machine right before me! I wanted this particular car so bad that I promised myself I would own one some day, but this one in the showroom was just special, everything about it, from the engine to the paint finish. One day I took pictures of this car from the engine to the VIN just to drool over it because I knew it would soon be gone. I married the woman from hell in the summer of 1981. We had absolutely nothing in commen. She hated cars, especially German and told me I was a fool for being a Porsche enthusiast. I divorced the hell out of this hag after 15 years with some cheating on the side that nobody has to know about ;) and soon after made a very good friend at a new job. His name was Mark. Mark and I shared the same passion for 911's and I learned so many things about it's engine and history thanks to Mark. He even worked on them himself as a hobby. I told Mark about this Porsche 911 I used to shop for & showed him the pictures I took of it and it's VIN. Mark became my husband soon after, & as a wedding gift he bought me this exact Porsche 911 that I used to drool over as a kid (which is also the one you're watching in this video.) With his connections, he managed to track it down. Boy!.. was I lucky because the owner had been the only one to own this 72' 911 for almost 40 years. This car became even more special as Mark and I made our own memories in the back seat of this Porsche, if you know what I mean ;D But yes, this car will gain anyone's sentimental value. Oh, thank you for the driving tips!
Or that's a 911 E (not T), or that engine is not the original one. T model engine had Solex or Zenith carburettors and 130 HP, that engine as mechanical fuel injection znd probably more 20 to 30 HP
when you learn how to drive, you'll learn how to hold the steering wheel, while it's not important but when you race, then you'll understand why it's important. I highly recommend you learn how to race so you'll understand the importance of holding the steering wheel
in 1972 I was twenty six years old....still would love this car...with new engine and tires of course.
Grab an HD camera, go back there, film this again, work some nice music and send it to Stuttgart and you'll be featured in the Porsche Museum for sure :)

I couldn't agree more! 🙂
Thank you for posting this video. There is something very special about driving an older 911. I did own at one time a '72 911E, I miss it very much.
I have the same hood support from Seine Systems - one of the best things I did for my '68 912. Love the color and interior of the car (in the video)!
Came for the car, stayed for the mountains. OMG YOU get to drive in a place like that....that's an amazing view/site.
Wow, so nice. It is great how some things that are simple and uncomplicated have such appeal. A beautiful shape and great sound. Thanks for sharing and enjoy.

I immediately liked this video because it started with the porsche under a radar dish.
Thank you for the tour. THIS made my day! Absolutely gorgeous example of an amazing breed.
Nice car, nice roads, nice landscape. When it comes to driving :
remember the car has 5 gears, do not hesitate to use them !
Lovely car, lovely colour great location ....

PRICE?
My dad bought this car ☺️
Hi there ! What is the correct name of the colour ?Cheers !!!
Leaf green.
willi19671 an absolute beautiful car - I hope you still have it
Come la mia .
Prefiro esse Porsche 1972 911T que uma Ferrari ou Lamborguine #zero.

My wife wants to know how it "moves along without an engine"???
whoever would take a dino over this is an absolute fool.,
better made beter designed WAYYY BETTER SOUNDING,
BETTER ENGINE,
BETTER RELIABILITY.
hold steering 9-3 or at least 10-2, certainly not 8-4. Why does everyone not know how to hold the steering wheel?
+Tony Lau
Are you a steering wheel holding inspector?
when you learn how to drive, you'll learn how to hold the steering wheel, while it's not important but when you race, then you'll understand why it's important. I highly recommend you learn how to race so you'll understand the importance of holding the steering wheel

I was joking, you´re absolutely right. cheers!
Lol 👌 sorry
What's important is the lovely car!
