    In this video, Manny drives a member's 1973 911 Carrera RS 2.7 Touring at Porsche Parade in Palm Springs. The first Carrera RS had a 210-horsepower flat six and came in both a Lightweight and Touring version. This is the Touring, which has more creature comforts, is a bit heavier than the Lightweight, and is great for road-tripping in addition to back road and track driving. Watch Manny's review on highway 74 outside of Palm Desert.

    Stunning car, especially the soundtrack. I think you’re driving CA 74 (?) The mountain roads here are magic, especially in classic sports cars. I’ve had my 964 up there - the older, compact 911s are a vivid experience, even at the speed limit.

    Great video! One of my favorite parts of driving my 1973 911E was looking down the hood as it ate up the pavement. Although I have a couple of modern Porsches with much, much more horsepower than that car, videos like this make me nostalgic. I realize that you are driving it in warm weather, so I'll forgive you for not subtracting a Road Trip point or two for the almost worthless output produced by the heat exchangers.

      I forgot to reset the odometer when I pulled away and any air cooled 911 owner knows that you never reset while in motion, so, I had to guess my mileage when I hit a mile 😊
