00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.550
[gentle music]

00:00:21.133 --> 00:00:22.313
Holy!

00:00:26.033 --> 00:00:26.566
Hey everyone.

00:00:26.566 --> 00:00:28.642
So it's Christmas morning right now.

00:00:28.642 --> 00:00:30.041
It's quite hazy, quite foggy,

00:00:30.041 --> 00:00:31.896
which is quite nice, in Dubai.

00:00:32.266 --> 00:00:33.200
Weather is amazing.

00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:35.803
It's like 20 degrees, 22 degrees,
something like that.

00:00:36.233 --> 00:00:38.500
Merry Christmas to anyone
who celebrates, obviously.

00:00:38.700 --> 00:00:40.900
I'm hoping I get this video out
on Christmas Day,

00:00:40.900 --> 00:00:41.943
so that you guys can see it.

00:00:42.133 --> 00:00:44.240
Anyway, I wanted to share

00:00:44.900 --> 00:00:46.166
what I just recently bought.

00:00:46.166 --> 00:00:48.020
I have bought a Porsche.

00:00:48.430 --> 00:00:50.016
My friend's Porsche is back there as well.

00:00:50.166 --> 00:00:52.266
But yeah, I have bought a Porsche.

00:00:53.748 --> 00:00:56.296
Not something
I was actually fully expecting to do,

00:00:56.296 --> 00:00:57.700
but, yeah, I did it.

00:00:58.690 --> 00:01:00.000
Let's go through the car,

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:01.466
and I'll also share my reasoning

00:01:01.466 --> 00:01:03.620
as to why I bought this over

00:01:03.620 --> 00:01:04.900
sort of so much other choices

00:01:04.900 --> 00:01:05.700
that there are out other.

00:01:05.700 --> 00:01:07.664
As you can see, I've got it in silver,

00:01:07.664 --> 00:01:09.140
GT Silver specifically,

00:01:09.600 --> 00:01:11.833
I would usually avoid silver cars,

00:01:11.833 --> 00:01:17.433
but I really do think that GT Silver
suits a 911 perfectly.

00:01:17.433 --> 00:01:19.056
It's the perfect colour.

00:01:19.466 --> 00:01:20.899
This is a Carrera S.

00:01:21.172 --> 00:01:22.300
I was looking at a GTS,

00:01:22.300 --> 00:01:25.906
but a GTS was just--
I couldn't find one that I liked.

00:01:26.266 --> 00:01:27.833
And they are a lot more expensive.

00:01:27.833 --> 00:01:29.133
I was happy to spend the money,

00:01:29.133 --> 00:01:30.776
but I just couldn't find one that I liked.

00:01:31.066 --> 00:01:33.266
This though, is as close to a GTS

00:01:33.266 --> 00:01:35.100
as you can get in terms of styling

00:01:35.100 --> 00:01:37.433
because it has the Sport Design Package.

00:01:37.433 --> 00:01:38.933
So around the front,

00:01:38.933 --> 00:01:40.200
you can see the black lip.

00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:42.000
It has the black sort of grille,

00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:43.033
the slatted grille,

00:01:43.033 --> 00:01:44.233
and it has the black side skirt

00:01:44.233 --> 00:01:46.466
and it also has, if I got around the back,

00:01:46.500 --> 00:01:50.133
it also has the sport design bumper 
on the back as well.

00:01:50.133 --> 00:01:52.393
And yeah, I can't believe I've bought a Porsche.

00:01:53.133 --> 00:01:54.466
I absolutely love it already.

00:01:54.466 --> 00:01:55.466
It's so fantastic.

00:01:55.466 --> 00:01:58.066
I can see what people are saying

00:01:58.066 --> 00:01:59.100
when it comes to Porsches,

00:01:59.100 --> 00:02:01.226
it is the perfect everyday sports car.

00:02:01.766 --> 00:02:02.666
I mean, this isn't

00:02:02.666 --> 00:02:03.933
sort of my everyday car.

00:02:03.933 --> 00:02:05.923
I do still have a Tesla for everyday driving,

00:02:05.923 --> 00:02:08.366
but because this is so comfortable

00:02:08.366 --> 00:02:09.349
as an everyday car,

00:02:09.349 --> 00:02:12.333
I have noticed that I'm driving it
a lot more than I would

00:02:12.333 --> 00:02:13.633
if I were to like--

00:02:13.633 --> 00:02:15.283
When I had my Ferrari, for example.

00:02:15.533 --> 00:02:16.533
I'm driving this a lot more.

00:02:17.533 --> 00:02:19.766
Let's go through the rest of the car.

00:02:19.766 --> 00:02:22.226
So I have satin black wheels on it.

00:02:22.766 --> 00:02:23.966
I don't know if you guys
can see that from that angle,

00:02:23.966 --> 00:02:25.700
maybe I should go shoot from this angle

00:02:25.700 --> 00:02:26.650
so that you guys can see.

00:02:28.042 --> 00:02:30.343
Yeah, I have a satin black wheels on it.

00:02:31.300 --> 00:02:32.633
Sports Design Package, as I said.

00:02:32.833 --> 00:02:35.233
And this has full PPF,

00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:37.533
from the original owner, I think.

00:02:37.533 --> 00:02:39.798
So that was actually
another reason why I bought it,

00:02:39.798 --> 00:02:41.366
because it had full PPF

00:02:41.633 --> 00:02:43.100
and it also has warranty

00:02:43.100 --> 00:02:44.403
for another two years.

00:02:44.533 --> 00:02:45.862
So I don't have to worry about a single thing

00:02:45.862 --> 00:02:47.103
if anything goes wrong with this car.

00:02:47.343 --> 00:02:48.820
It has extended warranty,

00:02:49.200 --> 00:02:51.703
it has the LED Matrix lights as well.

00:02:52.333 --> 00:02:53.700
It has the sunroof,

00:02:53.700 --> 00:02:55.033
but it's not the glass sunroof,

00:02:55.033 --> 00:02:56.600
which I wish it did have.

00:02:56.600 --> 00:02:59.166
I just have this sort of normal metal roof.

00:02:59.166 --> 00:02:59.910
It does open,

00:03:00.500 --> 00:03:01.766
but yeah, I just have the normal metal roof.

00:03:01.766 --> 00:03:03.100
I would have liked the glass sunroof,

00:03:03.100 --> 00:03:04.900
but hey, I'm buying a used car here,

00:03:04.900 --> 00:03:05.766
I can't be too picky,

00:03:05.766 --> 00:03:07.433
and I have a bloody 911.

00:03:07.833 --> 00:03:09.286
I'm lucky enough as it is.

00:03:09.566 --> 00:03:11.186
Okay, so some people have just pulled up

00:03:11.866 --> 00:03:13.550
to take a picture with the car,

00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:16.056
with Lance's car, which is super random.

00:03:17.100 --> 00:03:18.600
But yeah, that's what happens in the desert,

00:03:18.600 --> 00:03:19.800
people are just friendly.

00:03:19.800 --> 00:03:21.113
I think this angle right here though,

00:03:21.113 --> 00:03:23.366
is the best angle of 911.

00:03:23.500 --> 00:03:26.356
There is something very timeless

00:03:26.866 --> 00:03:29.533
about the sort of back end of an 911.

00:03:29.533 --> 00:03:31.433
It's just so good looking, it's so sexy looking.

00:03:31.433 --> 00:03:33.133
I'm not really sure

00:03:33.133 --> 00:03:34.877
how else to say it, it just looks so good.

00:03:35.466 --> 00:03:36.733
Of course, I have the sport exhaust.

00:03:36.733 --> 00:03:39.466
You've got to have
the sports exhaust on an 911.

00:03:39.466 --> 00:03:42.333
It's crazy to me that people purchase this car

00:03:42.333 --> 00:03:43.666
without the sports exhaust.

00:03:43.666 --> 00:03:44.500
Whoever spec this car

00:03:44.500 --> 00:03:46.940
when they first bought
actually did quite a good job.

00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:49.233
There are a few things
that I'd probably spec differently,

00:03:49.233 --> 00:03:50.400
like I said with the glass sunroof.

00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:51.633
But yeah,

00:03:51.633 --> 00:03:54.211
the gentleman who
originally bought this car

00:03:54.211 --> 00:03:55.200
did do a good job.

00:03:55.200 --> 00:03:58.700
He basically just made it as close
to a GTS as possible.

00:03:58.700 --> 00:04:00.200
This is a 2022 model.

00:04:00.200 --> 00:04:02.533
So, back then 2021, 2022,

00:04:02.533 --> 00:04:04.133
when he probably specced,

00:04:04.133 --> 00:04:05.600
a GTS would have been very hard to come by.

00:04:05.600 --> 00:04:06.900
So I have a feeling

00:04:06.900 --> 00:04:08.166
the person who bought this car,

00:04:08.166 --> 00:04:09.573
actually really wanted a GTS

00:04:09.933 --> 00:04:10.700
and they couldn't get one,

00:04:10.700 --> 00:04:12.466
so they got a Carrera S instead.

00:04:12.466 --> 00:04:14.765
The other difference
between a Carrera S and a GTS

00:04:14.765 --> 00:04:15.700
is the ride height.

00:04:15.700 --> 00:04:17.730
The GTS is 10 mil lower.

00:04:18.130 --> 00:04:20.600
In Dubai, I probably would've been fine

00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:21.900
with the lower ride height

00:04:21.900 --> 00:04:24.000
because Dubai roads are really good,

00:04:24.400 --> 00:04:26.304
but because this is 10 mil higher,

00:04:26.304 --> 00:04:27.533
it is more comfortable.

00:04:27.533 --> 00:04:30.310
I actually drove recently
all the way down to Abu Dhabi,

00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:33.033
did a quick little
sort of road trip for the day,

00:04:33.033 --> 00:04:34.200
and it was super comfortable.

00:04:34.808 --> 00:04:37.266
140 kilometres an hour the whole way.

00:04:37.266 --> 00:04:38.193
National speed limit.

00:04:38.193 --> 00:04:39.456
And yeah, just sticking it into cruise control.

00:04:39.466 --> 00:04:40.833
And it was just like driving any other car,

00:04:40.833 --> 00:04:41.855
it was super comfortable.

00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:44.300
That's what really
impressed me most about this.

00:04:44.300 --> 00:04:46.200
It can very much be used

00:04:46.200 --> 00:04:47.400
as a daily car,

00:04:47.400 --> 00:04:50.133
it just is the perfect daily sports car.

00:04:50.133 --> 00:04:51.916
And I get why people say that now.

00:04:51.916 --> 00:04:53.700
It is good looking though, isn't it?

00:04:53.700 --> 00:04:57.066
Porsche have now the design of the 992.

00:04:59.433 --> 00:05:00.800
If we go inside.

00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:02.733
So I have the black interior

00:05:02.733 --> 00:05:04.233
with the grey stitching.

00:05:04.233 --> 00:05:05.766
Chalk stitching.

00:05:05.766 --> 00:05:09.000
It has nice Porsche emblems
on the headrest as well

00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:11.233
and it has the grey seat belts,
the Chalk seatbelts.

00:05:11.233 --> 00:05:12.566
I think this is actually really well done

00:05:12.566 --> 00:05:14.800
because it matches the exterior of the car,

00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:16.766
very minimal inside, in black.

00:05:16.766 --> 00:05:18.300
I mean, my dream interior is probably

00:05:18.300 --> 00:05:20.966
the sort of Brown Heritage Edition
that they do.

00:05:20.966 --> 00:05:22.133
That interior is fantastic,

00:05:22.133 --> 00:05:24.633
but that's obviously hard to come by.

00:05:24.633 --> 00:05:26.500
So the black I think looks fantastic.

00:05:26.500 --> 00:05:27.853
I also prefer

00:05:28.133 --> 00:05:29.894
the leather over race-tex.

00:05:29.894 --> 00:05:31.800
Race-tex, I can understand it looks more sporty,

00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:32.633
it feels more sporty,

00:05:32.633 --> 00:05:33.720
but I prefer the leather.

00:05:34.400 --> 00:05:36.066
The only thing I wish this did have,

00:05:36.066 --> 00:05:38.193
and I've seen quite
a few Porsches in Dubai have

00:05:38.798 --> 00:05:39.766
is in the middle here,

00:05:39.900 --> 00:05:42.400
you'd have buttons
for cooled and heated seats.

00:05:42.400 --> 00:05:44.133
I've seen quite a few cars with cooled seats.

00:05:44.133 --> 00:05:44.900
It would have been nice

00:05:44.900 --> 00:05:46.528
to have cool seats in this for sure.

00:05:47.138 --> 00:05:48.700
In the Dubai weather, obviously

00:05:48.700 --> 00:05:51.100
it just makes such a big difference
having cooled seats.

00:05:51.100 --> 00:05:52.366
Yeah, the dials are pretty standard.

00:05:52.366 --> 00:05:53.234
Nothing fancy there.

00:05:53.354 --> 00:05:56.740
The original owner
didn't spec a colour on the dial,

00:05:56.800 --> 00:05:57.566
but I think that's fine

00:05:57.566 --> 00:06:00.083
because I actually think
it looks better with the grey and black,

00:06:00.083 --> 00:06:01.300
it sort of blends in better.

00:06:01.300 --> 00:06:02.600
Of course, Sport Chrono Pack.

00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:03.933
You can't have a 911

00:06:03.933 --> 00:06:05.743
without the Sport Chrono Pack.

00:06:06.033 --> 00:06:06.900
I also have,

00:06:06.900 --> 00:06:08.230
if you guys can see down there,

00:06:08.600 --> 00:06:10.233
I also have the fire extinguisher,

00:06:10.233 --> 00:06:11.600
which I think is an odd option

00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:13.800
to add to a Carrera S model.

00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:15.880
But hey, it's pretty cool to have.

00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:17.300
And then of course

00:06:17.300 --> 00:06:18.766
we have the back seats as well,

00:06:18.766 --> 00:06:20.000
which let's be honest,

00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:21.833
no one's ever gonna be
sitting in these back seats

00:06:21.833 --> 00:06:23.556
because they are so tight.

00:06:24.266 --> 00:06:27.666
I would actually maybe
prefer it without the back seats,

00:06:27.666 --> 00:06:30.500
just have it as just the carpet,

00:06:30.500 --> 00:06:31.766
so that I can put stuff back here

00:06:31.766 --> 00:06:33.366
so that I can have a bit more space.

00:06:33.366 --> 00:06:34.535
But yeah, the backseats in the 911,

00:06:34.666 --> 00:06:35.946
I think it's just quite funny really.

00:06:36.266 --> 00:06:37.600
If we have a look at the trunk space,

00:06:37.600 --> 00:06:40.666
which always surprises me on these cars,

00:06:40.666 --> 00:06:41.266
it surprised me

00:06:41.266 --> 00:06:42.598
when I had my Ferrari as well.

00:06:43.100 --> 00:06:44.473
The trunk space is just--

00:06:44.473 --> 00:06:45.793
If I can open it up,

00:06:46.433 --> 00:06:47.570
it's ginormous.

00:06:48.200 --> 00:06:49.326
I could fit in that.

00:06:50.086 --> 00:06:51.156
It's actually so big.

00:06:51.866 --> 00:06:52.700
It's quite impressive.

00:06:52.700 --> 00:06:54.400
You could easily fit weekend away bags.

00:06:54.400 --> 00:06:55.600
You could easily fit a suitcase in there.

00:06:55.600 --> 00:06:57.066
Obviously not a larger case, but...

00:06:57.066 --> 00:06:59.173
I think you could fit two carry-ons 
in there no problem.

00:06:59.233 --> 00:07:02.100
So yeah, I'm really impressed
by the practicality.

00:07:02.100 --> 00:07:03.433
And of course you have the back seat,

00:07:03.433 --> 00:07:05.400
so you can put stuff on the back seats

00:07:05.400 --> 00:07:06.300
if you like as well.

00:07:06.300 --> 00:07:07.710
I really do like this angle though.

00:07:08.450 --> 00:07:10.299
This angle just looks fantastic.

00:07:12.300 --> 00:07:14.400
I'm half tempted to change

00:07:14.900 --> 00:07:16.659
this rear light here

00:07:17.300 --> 00:07:19.700
to the sort of smoked out clear one.

00:07:21.500 --> 00:07:22.866
Because it's not that expensive to do.

00:07:23.466 --> 00:07:26.233
I think it's like a $800, $1,000,

00:07:26.233 --> 00:07:27.066
something like that,

00:07:27.766 --> 00:07:29.033
which I don't think is too bad.

00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:33.900
But yeah, I'm just looking at little things here.

00:07:34.500 --> 00:07:36.376
It really is like fantastic looking.

00:07:36.466 --> 00:07:37.700
Oh, just this angle.

00:07:38.400 --> 00:07:39.718
What a good looking car.

00:07:40.166 --> 00:07:42.026
Well, just look at that ass.

00:07:42.106 --> 00:07:43.133
Like, damn.

00:07:43.133 --> 00:07:44.777
So I'm sure many of you will be wondering,

00:07:44.777 --> 00:07:45.748
"Hey, what happened to the Ferrari?"

00:07:45.748 --> 00:07:46.541
"Where did the Ferrari go?"

00:07:46.541 --> 00:07:48.954
I actually sold the Ferrari earlier this year

00:07:48.954 --> 00:07:50.133
before I moved to Dubai.

00:07:50.133 --> 00:07:51.823
I couldn't ship the car to Dubai

00:07:52.133 --> 00:07:53.433
because, of course, the steering wheel

00:07:53.433 --> 00:07:54.600
is on the other side.

00:07:54.900 --> 00:07:56.300
Dubai doesn't allow cars

00:07:56.300 --> 00:07:58.366
that have steering wheels 
on the other side.

00:07:59.126 --> 00:08:01.483
Unless they're like super old, basically,

00:08:01.483 --> 00:08:03.386
past a certain time.

00:08:03.566 --> 00:08:04.933
So yeah, like it just made sense

00:08:04.933 --> 00:08:05.866
for me to sell the Ferrari.

00:08:05.866 --> 00:08:08.500
And the Ferrari actually got bought by Ferrari,

00:08:08.500 --> 00:08:09.866
I sold it back to Ferrari,

00:08:09.866 --> 00:08:11.200
which is quite nice because it means

00:08:11.200 --> 00:08:12.766
I hold a relationship with them.

00:08:12.766 --> 00:08:13.766
I also said to myself

00:08:13.766 --> 00:08:14.848
that when I come to Dubai,

00:08:14.848 --> 00:08:16.774
I will buy another Ferrari,

00:08:16.774 --> 00:08:18.990
but I just thought to myself,

00:08:18.990 --> 00:08:20.910
"Hey, I can buy another Ferrari at any time."

00:08:21.600 --> 00:08:22.733
Why not try a Porsche?

00:08:22.733 --> 00:08:23.700
Everyone keeps saying,

00:08:23.700 --> 00:08:24.175
"Try a Porsche",

00:08:24.175 --> 00:08:24.759
"Get a Porsche",

00:08:24.759 --> 00:08:25.476
"Try an 911".

00:08:26.533 --> 00:08:27.366
That's what I wanted to do.

00:08:27.366 --> 00:08:29.186
I just thought, "Hey, let's try 911."

00:08:29.266 --> 00:08:30.622
I was actually looking for--

00:08:30.780 --> 00:08:31.533
It's gonna sound insane.

00:08:31.533 --> 00:08:33.766
I was actually looking for a GT3 Touring.

00:08:33.766 --> 00:08:34.600
GT3 is a great car.

00:08:34.600 --> 00:08:36.230
I do think it's a bit overrated,

00:08:36.740 --> 00:08:38.300
but overrated doesn't mean that I don't like it.

00:08:38.300 --> 00:08:39.426
I think it's an amazing car,

00:08:39.426 --> 00:08:41.480
but I do think the GT3 in general,

00:08:41.900 --> 00:08:43.566
it's just an overrated car.

00:08:43.566 --> 00:08:44.874
Porsche have done a really good job

00:08:44.874 --> 00:08:47.100
of this sort of aura

00:08:47.100 --> 00:08:49.200
and the marketing around the GT3,

00:08:49.200 --> 00:08:51.733
and I get it, people love the idea

00:08:51.733 --> 00:08:54.099
of getting GT3 or GT3 RS

00:08:54.099 --> 00:08:56.900
and being like, "Look, I've got a track car,
I can get on track, whatever,"

00:08:56.900 --> 00:08:57.600
but let's be honest,

00:08:57.600 --> 00:08:59.300
most people who gets a GT3

00:08:59.300 --> 00:09:00.466
do not go on the track,

00:09:00.466 --> 00:09:03.700
and it's why I wanted
the GT3 Touring specifically.

00:09:03.700 --> 00:09:05.200
Just a classy looking car.

00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:06.511
It's more of a road car,

00:09:06.511 --> 00:09:07.800
so it's a bit more comfortable,

00:09:07.800 --> 00:09:09.566
but it has the engine of the GT3

00:09:09.566 --> 00:09:11.273
and all of the elements of the GT3.

00:09:11.733 --> 00:09:13.933
But GT3 Touring

00:09:13.966 --> 00:09:16.033
are nearly impossible to find in Dubai.

00:09:16.066 --> 00:09:17.300
I just can't find one.

00:09:17.810 --> 00:09:19.600
I've been looking ever since I moved.

00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:21.966
And they're really, really hard to find.

00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:24.500
I think I've only come across
one or two on sale

00:09:24.500 --> 00:09:26.466
since I moved in March,

00:09:26.466 --> 00:09:27.206
which is just wild.

00:09:27.206 --> 00:09:28.367
they're that hard to find.

00:09:28.367 --> 00:09:29.881
And the one or two that I found,

00:09:29.881 --> 00:09:32.266
the specs weren't really what I wanted.

00:09:32.266 --> 00:09:33.533
One of them was a manual as well,

00:09:33.533 --> 00:09:34.760
and I definitely want PDK.

00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:36.458
Manual, of course I can understand,

00:09:36.458 --> 00:09:39.633
but PDK for Dubai driving and traffic

00:09:39.633 --> 00:09:40.966
just makes more sense for me,

00:09:40.966 --> 00:09:42.500
and I just prefer the comfort

00:09:42.500 --> 00:09:44.100
and the ease of a PDK.

00:09:44.100 --> 00:09:45.933
So usually I like to keep my sports cars

00:09:45.933 --> 00:09:47.666
for around a year or two

00:09:47.666 --> 00:09:48.766
and then switch to the next one,

00:09:48.766 --> 00:09:50.400
because obviously I'm in this phase

00:09:50.400 --> 00:09:52.800
where I can try all different types of cars,
so why not?

00:09:52.800 --> 00:09:54.166
Why not try every type of sports car?

00:09:54.166 --> 00:09:55.786
Why not try every type of supercar that I can?

00:09:56.066 --> 00:09:57.466
So that's exactly what I'm doing,

00:09:57.466 --> 00:09:58.666
just to see what I like most.

00:09:58.666 --> 00:10:00.900
I'm sure I'm going
to go back to Ferrari at some point.

00:10:00.900 --> 00:10:02.766
Ferrari for me, there's just something,

00:10:02.766 --> 00:10:04.433
Ferrari is just another level

00:10:04.433 --> 00:10:05.583
compared to Porsche.

00:10:05.833 --> 00:10:07.770
Some Porsche people
might not like me saying that,

00:10:07.900 --> 00:10:08.800
but let's be honest,

00:10:08.800 --> 00:10:09.766
Ferrari's another level.

00:10:09.766 --> 00:10:10.766
But of course,

00:10:10.766 --> 00:10:12.500
a different price bracket
also comes with that.

00:10:12.500 --> 00:10:13.800
Ferrari are usually...

00:10:18.346 --> 00:10:19.532
You're gonna be
in the background of my video.

00:10:22.633 --> 00:10:23.866
They're gonna be like,
"What the hell is going on?"

00:10:23.866 --> 00:10:25.350
Was trying to do a thoughtful reel.

00:10:26.100 --> 00:10:27.596
I ruined it. Go the other way.

00:10:28.366 --> 00:10:29.465
Anyway back to Ferrari.

00:10:29.465 --> 00:10:31.783
Ferraris are in a different price bracket.

00:10:31.933 --> 00:10:33.500
But what's funny

00:10:33.500 --> 00:10:34.966
is that the amount

00:10:34.966 --> 00:10:36.366
that I bought this for,

00:10:36.366 --> 00:10:38.580
I can actually also buy another 488.

00:10:38.580 --> 00:10:39.466
I could have bought 488.

00:10:39.466 --> 00:10:41.200
So in Dubai,

00:10:41.200 --> 00:10:42.900
Porsches are actually more expensive

00:10:42.900 --> 00:10:44.700
than they are in the UK.

00:10:44.700 --> 00:10:47.633
So I paid quite a bit more than I would

00:10:47.633 --> 00:10:48.300
for something like this

00:10:48.300 --> 00:10:49.300
than I would in the UK.

00:10:49.300 --> 00:10:50.766
I think in the UK I would have paid

00:10:50.766 --> 00:10:53.066
a good $30-40,000 less,

00:10:53.400 --> 00:10:55.500
and for a couple of grand more,

00:10:55.666 --> 00:10:58.766
I could get a 488 here
compared to what I paid for this.

00:10:58.766 --> 00:10:59.700
And it's just because

00:10:59.700 --> 00:11:03.100
911's hold our values so incredibly well

00:11:03.100 --> 00:11:04.966
and they're very in demand in Dubai.

00:11:04.966 --> 00:11:06.700
It seems like people love Porsches here.

00:11:06.700 --> 00:11:07.533
They love Porsches here

00:11:07.533 --> 00:11:10.366
more than most other types of cars.

00:11:10.366 --> 00:11:12.866
So yeah, I think I've done
a good job getting this

00:11:12.866 --> 00:11:14.100
because I've got this for a very good price.

00:11:14.100 --> 00:11:15.500
And like I said, it's got full PPF,

00:11:15.500 --> 00:11:17.100
it's got warranty

00:11:17.100 --> 00:11:18.533
for another two years.

00:11:18.533 --> 00:11:20.566
And from looking at what

00:11:20.566 --> 00:11:22.660
the first owner bought it for,

00:11:23.400 --> 00:11:25.033
they really didn't lose much money

00:11:25.033 --> 00:11:26.800
over the last two or three years

00:11:26.800 --> 00:11:28.566
that they've had this car, which is wild.

00:11:28.566 --> 00:11:31.456
I expect to also not lose too much money.

00:11:32.166 --> 00:11:34.033
But anyway, the money thing is one thing.

00:11:34.033 --> 00:11:35.966
Enjoying the car is also just as important.

00:11:35.966 --> 00:11:37.400
It's an absolutely fantastic car

00:11:37.400 --> 00:11:39.500
and it really is the everyday sports car,

00:11:39.500 --> 00:11:41.333
this is the perfect everyday sports car.

00:11:41.333 --> 00:11:43.243
If you want a sports car
that you can drive every single day,

00:11:43.243 --> 00:11:44.233
you wanna commute,

00:11:44.233 --> 00:11:46.366
see friends, go out, whatever,

00:11:46.366 --> 00:11:47.433
this is the perfect car.

00:11:47.433 --> 00:11:48.000
It really is.

00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:49.366
It's so comfortable, so nice.

00:11:49.366 --> 00:11:51.233
It's as easy to drive as any other car.

00:11:51.233 --> 00:11:52.666
I'd say the Ferrari--

00:11:52.666 --> 00:11:53.300
When I had the Ferrari,

00:11:53.300 --> 00:11:54.000
that was a bit different.

00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:55.533
The Ferrari wasn't as easy,

00:11:55.533 --> 00:11:57.033
it was a bit more...

00:11:58.066 --> 00:11:58.866
The Ferrari felt like

00:11:58.866 --> 00:12:00.200
a bit of a lunatic of a car.

00:12:00.200 --> 00:12:02.366
It just felt like it had

00:12:02.366 --> 00:12:03.133
too much power

00:12:03.133 --> 00:12:07.166
because it had 650-660 horsepower
to the back wheels.

00:12:07.166 --> 00:12:09.600
This has like 450 or something like that.

00:12:09.933 --> 00:12:11.233
So a big difference in performance.

00:12:11.233 --> 00:12:13.520
But the Ferrari, that thing wouldn't grip,

00:12:13.520 --> 00:12:14.600
and it was fun.

00:12:14.600 --> 00:12:16.247
The Ferrari felt more,

00:12:16.600 --> 00:12:18.733
more like a maniac car.

00:12:18.900 --> 00:12:20.300
This feels a lot more refined,

00:12:20.300 --> 00:12:21.266
a lot smoother,

00:12:21.866 --> 00:12:23.200
a lot more under control.

00:12:23.200 --> 00:12:24.600
That's the best way I can explain it.

00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:26.433
What's also absolutely fantastic,

00:12:26.433 --> 00:12:28.505
and Porsche have nailed,

00:12:28.833 --> 00:12:30.166
it's just the everyday comforts,

00:12:30.166 --> 00:12:32.233
like having Apple CarPlay.

00:12:32.433 --> 00:12:33.966
And they have buttons!

00:12:33.966 --> 00:12:35.600
They have buttons, thank God!

00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:37.333
They have buttons for the AC.

00:12:37.333 --> 00:12:39.466
They have buttons for the volume,

00:12:39.633 --> 00:12:40.833
for navigating the menu,

00:12:40.833 --> 00:12:42.400
I can navigate the menu with this,

00:12:42.400 --> 00:12:44.266
I don't have to use the touchscreen.

00:12:44.266 --> 00:12:47.200
I'm so glad that they've actually

00:12:47.200 --> 00:12:48.866
implemented this stuff with buttons

00:12:48.866 --> 00:12:49.933
rather than everything touchscreen,

00:12:49.933 --> 00:12:51.900
because touchscreens and stuff is nice

00:12:51.900 --> 00:12:52.733
and you can get used to it,

00:12:52.733 --> 00:12:55.000
but buttons are just superior.

00:12:55.266 --> 00:12:58.133
And I have obviously a screen in my Tesla

00:12:58.133 --> 00:12:59.133
and I'm used to it,

00:12:59.133 --> 00:13:01.766
but I would definitely always prefer buttons.

00:13:01.766 --> 00:13:02.800
So Porsches have just done

00:13:02.800 --> 00:13:04.800
a really good job of everyday

00:13:04.800 --> 00:13:06.970
sort of usability and comforts and things.

00:13:07.900 --> 00:13:09.900
It's a really good job, but

00:13:09.900 --> 00:13:11.200
one thing they haven't done well,

00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:12.300
I don't know if you guys can see this,

00:13:12.300 --> 00:13:14.100
but from from my head angle.

00:13:14.100 --> 00:13:15.533
So this is where I usually sit.

00:13:15.533 --> 00:13:16.493
This is my view.

00:13:16.849 --> 00:13:18.526
Yeah, you can't see the end dials.

00:13:19.433 --> 00:13:20.800
You just can't see them.

00:13:20.800 --> 00:13:22.133
They're completely blocked off.

00:13:23.400 --> 00:13:25.793
So I think that is a bit of a weird design

00:13:26.733 --> 00:13:28.233
trait that they've implemented.

00:13:28.233 --> 00:13:29.233
I think it would have been better

00:13:29.233 --> 00:13:31.000
just to keep the three dials

00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:32.433
and then have this dial

00:13:32.433 --> 00:13:33.900
and that dial over there,

00:13:33.900 --> 00:13:36.176
sort of in the corners maybe or something.

00:13:36.866 --> 00:13:38.833
It's a bit odd,

00:13:38.833 --> 00:13:39.800
because when you're driving

00:13:39.800 --> 00:13:42.333
you cannot see the two outer dials at all.

00:13:42.333 --> 00:13:44.900
Steering wheel in this
is the full leather steering wheel.

00:13:44.900 --> 00:13:46.200
And yeah, I think it looks really good.

00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:48.500
It's a nice shape, nice thickness,

00:13:49.633 --> 00:13:51.100
If you know what I mean.

00:13:51.100 --> 00:13:53.500
And yeah, sports car dial is nice as well.

00:13:53.500 --> 00:13:54.600
And the buttons on the steering wheel,

00:13:54.600 --> 00:13:56.006
oh man, they're so nice and clicky.

00:13:56.966 --> 00:13:58.993
It's just these sorts of everyday things

00:13:58.993 --> 00:14:03.066
that really make the usability
of this car so perfect.

00:14:03.233 --> 00:14:05.003
Okay, so this is actually
gonna be my first time

00:14:05.003 --> 00:14:06.562
doing Launch Control in this car.

00:14:09.600 --> 00:14:10.264
Sounds good.

00:14:11.700 --> 00:14:12.533
Where's my sunglasses?

00:14:12.533 --> 00:14:14.016
I need my sunglasses, there we go.

00:14:14.691 --> 00:14:15.434
Ready.

00:14:16.366 --> 00:14:17.783
I'm gonna actually need to reverse it back.

00:14:17.783 --> 00:14:19.066
Put it into Sport Mode as well.

00:14:19.065 --> 00:14:20.172
But let's...

00:14:21.749 --> 00:14:23.833
Let's bring it into the middle of the road first.

00:14:23.833 --> 00:14:25.300
Make sure everything is clear.

00:14:25.300 --> 00:14:27.133
I'm hoping my camera doesn't fall over.

00:14:27.133 --> 00:14:28.633
That's the main thing.

00:14:29.100 --> 00:14:30.233
Otherwise,

00:14:30.233 --> 00:14:31.666
that's not gonna be ideal.

00:14:31.666 --> 00:14:33.333
Put it into Sport Plus.

00:14:34.133 --> 00:14:36.564
So you mash the-- I mean, mash the brake.

00:14:42.680 --> 00:14:44.060
Oh, my God!

00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:47.196
Holy!

00:14:47.866 --> 00:14:49.878
Oh, my God!

00:14:51.366 --> 00:14:52.400
What the hell?

00:14:52.400 --> 00:14:53.893
That sounds insane.

00:14:54.333 --> 00:14:55.549
Oh, my God!

00:14:55.549 --> 00:14:57.419
Holy crap.

00:14:59.966 --> 00:15:00.756
That was...

00:15:02.533 --> 00:15:03.570
That was something.

00:15:04.600 --> 00:15:06.233
That was-- Oh, my God.

00:15:06.233 --> 00:15:07.270
That was incredible.

00:15:15.033 --> 00:15:16.700
That was insane.

00:15:16.700 --> 00:15:18.331
And it sounded so good as well.
