Rennthusiast:
Smarter Porsche ownership

What’s it actually like to live with a Porsche GT4 on a real trip? Over the course of four days I drove my 981 Cayman GT4 about 1,000 miles — highways, back roads, city driving, and a trip down to Amelia Island. Most GT4 videos focus on lap times and track performance, but very few talk about what it’s like to actually spend long days in the car. In this video I break down the good, the bad, and the things nobody really talks about when you road trip a GT4: • Seat comfort over long distances • Highway driving vs back roads • Fuel economy • Packing space for two people • Noise and ride quality • Visibility and blind spots • Attention the car gets in public • How it compares to road-tripping a 911 If you're thinking about buying a 981 GT4, or you're wondering whether one of these cars can actually work beyond the track, this video should give you a realistic look at what ownership is like. No hype. Just real Porsche ownership experience. Looking to buy your first Porsche and need a thought partner? I have owned 22 of these cars in the last 8 years. Let me help you figure out the right moves so you don't make a mistake.

I paid $112,500 for this 2004 Porsche 996 GT3. We put it on the lift to see what I actually bought — and found damaged PCCB rotors that were missed during the pre-purchase inspection. In this video, we break down: • Clutch condition at 35k miles • Mezger engine considerations • Coolant line concerns • The reality of aging carbon ceramic brakes This isn’t about blaming anyone. It’s about understanding what ownership of a 22-year-old GT3 actually looks like. If you’re shopping one of these cars, this is what to check.

I've owned my 996 GT3 and have put 200 miles on it. Here are my thoughts.

This might be the best Porsche I've owned yet....but it's time to move it along. Here's why.

The 997 is getting a lot of hype...but is it deserved?

The 2009 - 2012 Porsche 911 seems to be the 911 that people are chasing. But why? Numeric Racing: https://numericracing.com/collections/911-carrera-997-transmission Fister Exhaust: https://fdmotorsports.net/product/fister-997-2-sport-exhaust-modification-pair/ Zweck: https://zweck.com/

The Porsche hobby isn't cheap.

The new Toyota Landcruiser is now just about marketing. That wasn't always the case.
