Great video, great scenery, really enjoyed the ride. Wish there were roads like that around here. One of the favorite things about driving my SC Turbo is hearing the open exhaust noise, the popping on deceleration, the whine of the turbo. Everything amplified in the tunnel....Music is good too but I haven't turned on my radio in years.

Really good video. You have a natural, sincere on camera personality and energy.
The car is great!

That's great -- I also enjoyed it!

Just a pedantic quibble: if "Faszination" were a German word, it would be "die Faszination," not der.

"Thanks, you're right if the title were "The Fascination" but it's supposed to be short for "Stories of the fascination with classic Porsches." ergo Der instead of Die. Plus the word "Die" just well... I hope we're better film makers than we are German language professors."

From the Producer.......

I thought that too for a second. Then I watched it again, and it's the story that rocks.

Well edited. Enjoyed.

Thanks so much, everyone! I kind of posted the video and walked away from the thread.

Please, everyone go check out the other videos on the Der Faszination YouTube Channel. I believe there's 13 for this first season, with the second season in the works.

Full Disclosure: No, I'm not part of the production or really any part of Der Faszination other than being a subject of one film. However, I did become good friends with John Polnik, the producer, and other subjects of the films. It's just a very cool series that's done well, and I want to support it as much as possible.

Nice! Haven't helmed TMCA for a while. Nice to know it's still getting plays.
