I'm so excited for you to listen to this episode of the Auto Amateur podcast! Recently I was lucky enough to talk with Lee Sibley. If you're a 911 enthusiast, chances are you know him. Lee is the editor of 'Total 911' magazine, the man behind the YouTube Channel 'That Nine Eleven Guy' and he's now about to launch his very own podcast 'The Road to Redline' with several fellow Porsche enthusiasts. In this episode we talk about what the future looks like for the Porsche 911 in terms of the rumors of imminent hybrid options and the possibility of a fully electric 911.
In this episode I speak with an Auto Amateur subscriber and fellow Porsche enthusiastic from the land down under. David is the proud owner of a Porsche 911 997 GT3 that is in wonderful condition with an amazing factory spec and an Akrapovic full titanium slip-on raceline straight pipe exhaust, the last one ever manufactured and sold for the 997 generation. We talk about his Porsche journey from purchase through his modifications to the driving experience.
I get asked this question almost daily through comments on YouTube, Instagram and the other content platforms I'm on... which is the best entry 911 for me? Most often, the people asking are looking at the 996s and 997s.
In this episode I talk about where we are with our Project 996 build - the jobs we have completed and the small mountain of jobs remaining. Every from transmissions to powder coating to new parts and decals. Tune in, kick back and let's talk Porsche.
I'm the guy who stabbed his steering wheel's airbag with a knife. Yup, I'm THAT guy...In this episode I talk about the time I tried to upgrade the steering wheel in my Porsche 911 and what drove me (pun intended) to take a knife to the airbag. It wasn't my finest moment of car ownership
Another winter, another few months of day dreaming about all the glorious road trips I want to take in the spring... Last year I drove my Porsche 911 997 over 1000 miles in 17 hours to the world famous stretch of road, the Tail of the Dragon, that winds its way around 300+ turns over 11 miles through the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina.
In this episode I talk about some of the exciting collaborations I'm embarking upon this year. Previewing some of the content that's going to be coming from Auto Amateur via this Podcast and my YouTube channel. 2020 is the year of collaborations! Bring it on!
Recently through the AutoAmateur YouTube channel we announced that Project 996 is happening.
My Porsche 911 is finally wrapped! After months of procrastinating and deliberating over which color to choose, having watched my friend Mario's 991S get its wrap late last year, I took the plunge... it's blue. My beautiful, elegant, however boring, agate grey 911 is now a stunning shade of blue. It's very close to the OEM Porsche "Mexico blue" and in low light looks a little closer to Porsche's "Miami blue". You'll have to watch my video and decide for yourself.
In this episode I sit around my kitchen counter with a cup of coffee and my friends, Steve and Chris, to chat about our Porsche ownership experience. We chat about what got us started, what hooked us in and what life as a Porsche owner is like and how much it differs from what we may have initially expected.
