A great watch...

Don't know if this is a repost but...a great watch nonetheless. Half of the video is devoted to telling a great Porsche story.

The video has been around the block for a bit, one of my favorites though. Always loved the passionate Ferrari guy true love was the Porsche he let go.

That was great, thanks for sharing, hadn't seen it before. I kept thinking, 'man, I hope I'm that cool when I'm 70'. Of course, I could live to be 200 and never be half as cool as that guy doing donuts in his priceless Iso Grifo

I am always surprised when I see something so interesting and related to marques I have known and loved. Obviously a genuine enthusiast and seems about as happy about the new "Collector-investors" who seem to be at the forefront in recent years.

My consolation is knowing that ... one BIG crash and they will disappear with the winds of change [after they unload their "investments"].

THANKS for the post. Wish he was a neighbor.
