Does the code work on the yellow 911?
“I’m selling everything…. Actually keeping everything. “
A statement every car guy has said once in his lifetime :)
👏🏼 finally that goofy tow hook/strap is gone! Giving you another like just for that 👍🏼🤣
Thanks so much!
997 Turbo is the best 911 Turbo. Perfect size. Not too heavy. Beautiful styling. That car will one day be worth much more than it is now especially as a manual transmission 💯
I totally agree!
About time. I'm surprised you didn't do it sooner. Oh, and sell the house for a bigger one.
Sell the house for one in Tennessee 😊
Get more ceiling height and then get a Proper and safer hoist
Noooo not the 996 !!!
I love it ❤
The tow strap coming off was for your own good. We had an intervention because we care. 😁
Man the 997 headlights with the black rings looked so much better! Personal opinion of course , good luck with the sale
Yeah man, I also stopped doing that, I have like 2 projects running and thats about it. Good one you for for doing this.
Sell everything but keep 997.
He kinda did a shit job on the 911 tbh I’d say sell
How so?
@@matt13ross ok so I’m being hyperbolic, but the wing just kills me, other 99% great, but that wing man. Ik oem spoiler is like a bajillion dollars but it would make the build look better. Purely my opinion tho. To each their own.
I'm not against the OEM wing. The reason it has the large wing is because it came with the car. A used OEM wing is 3K or more, not worth it to me.
@@matt13rossman he backtracked hella on that one 💀 personally I love the GT3 style wing and the 997 as a whole
Glad to see the e92 staying.
Your 997 came out amazing. Your videos have made me seriously think about buying a salvage one from Copart or Iaa and rebuilding it myself. Thanks again for all the videos of the 997 just watched all of them since yesterday.
Great choice on the porsche keeper! I was watching saying.... Please dont sell it please don't sell it hahahahaha
I regret selling my e36 every day! Definitely keep it. You've made me want a new one and to LS swap it. Gotta keep the 997 as well as I feel like it's what built this channel. Hopefully the e30 m3 is a hit as well. Could you build a big garage/shed in your front yard?
Hang in there and keep on trucking!
I was in the same boat...
8 cars, a house and a rental property... waaaay to much to keep up with!!
Now I sold the house, live in my rental and am down to only 3 cars... and I'm MUCH MUCH happier!
It’s amazing how much freedom comes from simplifying!
glad to see you're at 100k man I remember watching when you first started the yellow porsche build and remember thinking how come you didnt have more subs or views
Thank you! It’s been quite the journey
As a e92 M3 and 997 owner, I would keep the pair, plus the pick up truck for towing and practicality purposes.
Glad you're not selling the 997 Turbo. I sold mine in a moment of weakness to a guy who made me an offer I should have refused. Miss it almost every day.
You’d be crazy to sell the 997! In a few years these will be fetching big money. Plus they are just awesome!
i discovered you chanel two days ago and i cant stop watching! greetings from Greece!!
Thanks so much and welcome!
Drift is awesome had them for years. Didn’t have to switch them out very often as they hold their scents very well.
I'm really impressed with it! Never heard of it before this TBH.
I’m glad your keeping the 997 such a beautiful build. I think some off road wheels would look better on the truck
Your cars; your choice. If it were me, I'd be getting rid of the E36, the E92, and the 997. Good luck with your decision!
So my first two cars got totalled for me. But my third vehicle.
1982 Toyota pickup with 7 inches of lift on 36" military tires...that one I still regret selling it and that was 26 years ago. So much regret still to this day
Recently hit a point too. I got a 1991 BMW 850 that I restored and then I got my 2006 BMW X5 that was supposed to be a flip but ended up my daily driver. I also picked up another 1995 BMW 840i to save/restore and its almost finished. I'm in a spot where Id like to get my own place with a garage, I realized that driving my E53 X5 day to day is kind of a waste - I spend a lot of money on fuel (or feel like I am), so I was going to replace it with a hybrid - but everything is expensive...I also want a fun car (all my current cars are Boats) so I started to entertain a M2. So im at a spot where I am tempted to just sell everything lol.
I cant seem to let go of the 850 (had it since 2017, and my dad had it from 2011 to 2017 - it was a parts car/very slow resto), the X5 - tried to sell no interest and its too good of a SUV/Vehicle to give away to get myself into debt by buying something new.
I had 5 cars at one point and it was hectic, I got 3 right now and its ok - but if I add 4th one - its going to cause issues again lol.
Damn the 996 is on the chopping block. I love the way that car turned out. It’s such a sick car. I wish I had the money to buy it from you. I’d love that thing
The tow strap should now be in a shadow box with its own part number. It drew attention and energy.
Truck has proper wheels! Attaboy!!
I bought a E36 M3 in ‘99, in 2007 I bought an E92, in 2020 something had to go. Sold E92 to buy a new car that parks outside so the E36 can stay cozy in the garage.
So so glad you’re keeping the e36 ! It’s too special!
It's definitely a keeper!
The 997 is a keeper, good looking cars. Keep a daily like a VW Polo or Golf (Rabbit), good all rounders and excellent mpg. That's all you need. Hire a truck/trailer when you need it or pay someone to haul stuff for you - makes better financial sense...oh and whatever project car/truck the channel needs. I run a 997 Carrera, VW Polo and just sold my 1990 VW Singlecab as I never used it. A few videos under my signature if you're interested. Good to have a purge of stuff you don't use much. Best of luck with the channel, Martin (England)
Keep whichever car that makes you happiest and is easiest to live with (parts and service costs) that is paid off and keep your daily driver; then sell off everything else! If only I would take my own advice … but since everything is paid for, I console myself with that!
This is such a great video! Well done everyone and stay cool!
Thank you!
I Matt, I keep on seeing you close the hood of the Porsche 911 by pushing on the Porsche badge. Warning! That a sure way to leave a dent in your bonnet. Just gently push the flat of your palm below the badge. Love your work. I bought a 997 Turbo manual in 2008 and can't ever see myself selling it. Cheers
Thanks for the tip!
You don’t need to get rid of cars. You need a new house with a bigger garage!
Glad the e92 is staying!
I really thought you were already doing youtube full time!
Someday!
1:08 don't press right on the emblem, you press below it
little tip, do not close the luggage compartment by pushing on the emblem, it makes a indentation on the hood (over time) ;)
Flog the e36, 996 & keep the 997 Turbo & e30M3
Yup the Duramax is definitely a keeper!!👍🏽..Aloha🤙🏽
For the red E30 to do something unique look at the B46/B48 drivetrain.
Tow strap came off thank god
Now imma subscribe ❤
Congrats on hitting 100k! Subbed when you got the 996 turbo
Also, use an ozone generator for 15 minute burst once a day until the smell is gone. I wish I lived close to you so I go let you borrow mine. It did wonders on my house and car (996 40th)
Can’t wait for the day you gonna start working on the e92 m3 ! Love that thing
3:33 keep the truck and the Grey Porsche
Sell everything and get a Pantera ...
😂😂 😂
I know you told me you can't afford it... but it would set your channel on fire...and only a few have been done...luv to see you build one...ijs 💯👌🏾
I know nothing about those lol
Hi from Luxembourg 🇱🇺
Try a collab with streten for the S65
And with the E30 too
wow.. the yellow. I would have thought you would have sold the gray lol. Oh man, one day... a Porsche will be mine.
Keep the 997 and the M3 E30 build and sell the rest ( obv not your truck!)
The E30 Looks so fucking Sick 😫😫
This are the kinda problems I want ❤
What do you do for your day job?
Who has day jobs anymore? Lol
Bump for another local PA car dude. Nice collection, but I can definitely see the headaches with those.
Thanks a lot!
I just wanna say, I used to watch guys with car vlogs, like Streetspeed, on here a long time ago. However, all their content got super repetitive and went to view chasing with giveaways and stunts.
Your channel is honestly, in my opinion, the best automotive content on UA-cam. Love the projects and the format.
I love seeing comments like this, thanks so much! And yea, I def agree on the Street Speed ad king lol.
@@matt13ross for sure man, it’s well made content and it’s genuine. It’s awesome!
Someone is going to get a hell of a 996!
Ahaha yup!
Sounds like the time has come to decide if you gonna take the plunge to do this full time and quit the day job 😁👍🏻 (and buy/lease a unit 😁)
I want that e36 Ls ❤
New drinking game…drink every time Matt pulls the plastic covers off 😆
Our livers will not survive.
If you took the wing off the 997 and put the 996 on oem wheels your life would be easier.
Easier? Lol
10:33 What program do you use to scan with the laptop?
Durametric
I think you’re making a great decision. Definitely makes more space to get some other projects lined up😅
So happy you took the strap off and also the truck having the stock wheels LMAO, thank you for pleasing us!
This is why you take time off in between projects :P
*The shell of an m3
Me : omg it’s perfect 😍
Hey Matt, just stopping by to say hi, keep going strong bro.
Appreciate it!
Look Matt, maybe I never leave a comment in any of your video. But I've been watching your channel for almost two years maybe? Yeah, the first project car that I watched is the yellow Porsche. It's kinda crazy how a normal person without any knowledge of cars fixing doing it heartfully, and yeah I just keep watching you fix the Porsche. And I enjoyed it, thanks Matt!!
Hopefully the car that gave this channel a tons of view have a new home that she deserve!! ^__^d
I've only got 4 cars (three of them Porsches). I can't keep up with them either. Not enough money, not enough time.
Man that e30 looks just like the '84 318i I had except mine had rust and the interior was going downhill lol. I also had oem foglights. Would have kept it had it not leaked all of my coolant out while at work causing the head to blow 5 minutes from home 🥲
Yes tow strap gone!!!!
Glad I found your channel.
Appreciate you watching!
Just put a UZ in the E92…Toyota and BMW are besties now and reliable 👍
Matt, I am interested in the 996. Do you have a price you are wanting to get for it?
50k
@@matt13rossin Europe a stock one with tiptronic goes for over 50k🥹
Looking forward to more e36 and e30 content 😎
I'm keeping the LS swapped BMW, 997 and Truck.. Everything else is Gone..👍🏾🏁
As long as you keep the e92 im happy
Yup! Have to fix it first before even thinking about selling.
@@matt13rosswould love to discuss the e92 and possible purchase
Time for a new Porsche Project! 991 time 😈
Eventually!
Love ur duramax
Good job.
Clear your garage, clear your mind, put the check book money back in and buy a rental property 👍🏻😁
Man you saying "never sell your first car" sorta inspires me to keep my Audi A4.
My buddy had an '02 A4. That was a fun car.
Matt, let me know what you are looking to get for the yellow Porsche. I'd be interested in picking it up 'as is' for the right price and shipping it across the atlantic.
50k
997 and classic M3 stay
I wish I knew that age selling my first car would be the biggest mistake of my life
I have been daydreaming of doing the same. Currently have 10 and it’s just too much to keep up with and constantly feels like nothing is getting done as there are so many needs and so little time.
Wow you actually cleaned something NOT using glass cleaner. My 997 TT is my first 911 and I haven’t gotten the confidence to push it as hard as my other cars with the engines in the front.
Ahahaha!
Im interested in the gt2rs intercoolers and your old exhaust if you have it.
Good luck cleaning up. I’d agree with your choice even though my opinion matters none. 😂
That blue car in the thumbnail is definitely 'shopped in.
First to say something lol
I was wondering when this was going to happen, you have a car buying problem! lol 😂😂😂
Loving the videos!
DON'T SELL THE E36! That car is the reason I even subbed to this channel, lol. I say ditch the white E30 and yellow 996. The E92 i would've made disappear a while ago, too.
"Yeah i need to thin out the heard"
"I am gonna get rid of my cars"
""This car is a keeper, this one too, that one too, and that one and ...."
Tow strap is gone, I can’t unsubscribe now. My work here is done!
I knew the truck, the e36 and the 997 were staying. I thought the e92 would go but I guess not…yet!
Kinda want the all red tail lights….are they off the 997?
One is a 997 tail and one is a cayman. They came with the car lol
Oh yeah…I remember that😂
I recently sold 5 cars. Thinned out my garage to 4 vehicles. Feels good.
Give the man more subs so he can go full time!
This!!!!
Have you talked to Alex at Gintani for a motor? He built his business on those motors back in the day.
