I couldn't get the music on my work computer so I can't comment on the quality, but seeing that beautiful longhood being driven hard is wonderful!

That video is like an erotic dream.

Nice to see I'm not the only one willing to take my 911 down a dirt road!

In my humble opinion there is no more beautiful Porsche than the '73 911T and those that share the same long-nose and high fender body styles at speed. Seeing the car from above is almost an erotic experience. Thanks.

I vaguely recall seeing something on tv about how the singer of that band has some serious exotic cars, including a Maclaren F1 or such.

I believe it is a 73RS, not a T. Expensive off-road vehicle.

Yes, also including a Miura. He is car obsessed.

So how much to charter a copter to look for cops and when both lanes are open?

Doing that to a real RS? Either the guy is a complete toad, or it was a T.

A "driven" Early 911! LOVED IT! I really miss mine watching this but at least I still have my SC

The copter was almost Viper Green - anyone notice?

It's a real RS (Touring). He has owned it for about 5 years....

or... he bought the car to drive rather than to pamper as a garage queen.

phooey to people like you who look at a RS as a bank roll more than an awsome drive.

What's wrong with a '73E or a '73S??? No chopped liver there...

Don't think it's any of the three, though. RS?

(Oops, update.... I see it's already been pegged as an RS or RS Replica.)



The chopper (seen in the film) is German registered. We don't see the other camera chopper.

Wonder where it's filmed... There's a quick glimpse of a sign in Spanish (Prohibido Tirar Basura Escombros - Don't Litter) in there. Maybe Spain?

Well what do you know.

And who in their right mind would want to pamper a car currently selling for $250K? (Perhaps a sane and rational person) And yes that is what good ones are going for.
