718 is only a few inches shorter (3-4) than the 911, but the wheelbase on a 718 is actually longer than the 911. Wheelbase will make the car feel larger, not the plastic bumper sticking out a couple more inches. Psychology plays a huge factor in people thinking that Boxsters and Caymans are smaller than 911s.
Galpin Porsche of Santa Clarita, my local Porsche dealer and best Cars and coffee around, and Matt Farah are a great combo! Thank you both so much for sharing this amazing video!!! Porsche enthusiast for 25 years now and looking forward to 25 more!
I'm enjoying these "My Porsche" stories. However, this one was a little too heavy on just talking. Hopefully future ones will have more footage of the actual car. Granted this one is just about stock except for engine internals that you can't see - but I'm sure that there are more interesting Porsche cars and owners out there.
Great video. I have a 2022 F450 with 37” and 13.5” Toyo tires with Kelderman air suspensions. At the ride height it rubs the sway bar when turned. Will this torsion Carli sway bar eliminate the rubs? Please advise. Thanks in advance.
The Los Angeles car scene is dominated by like 3 old fat dudes and everyone just gargles their nuts non-stop. Matt Farah, Magnus Walker, Spike Feresten. So boring. Expand your horizons, folks.
Is that Cassisrot? My 1987 928S4 is Cassisrot-it’s an awesome color that dramatically changes in different lighting conditions from purple to pink to copper
I maintain, Matt's Spyder sounds like no other Porsche engine I've heard, it sounds downright GNARLY. The lost at sea thing I saw unfold at real time in the podcast lmao, great to see his story here! Sold me on a red interior I'm afraid 🤣
There’s a reason the most popular videos on the snaking tire channel are from 15 years ago before people knew matt was a trust fund kid and pretended that he wasn’t while being the opposite of humble and short sided in his brashness. People just aren’t interested in someone that pretends to be an every man while being a trust fund millionaire.
Great review and story from Matt - which I knew from his perspective but it's awesome to get reminded. What happened to the OG engine? I had the impression / without facts / that the original engine was used and tuned. I didn't know that there was a complete new engine used by Deman, great!
I think it's safe to assume the original engine is still in the car. The crankshaft was replaced with a stroker crank, and the cylinders were either bored or liners replaced to allow for larger diameter pistons. Then tuned so the car plays nice with another 0.5L, and higher compression!
He thinks they are the best and then he shade tree mark zuckerbergs them. Factory horsepower is infinitely better than aftermarket horsepower. Everyone knows this runs 30 degrees hotter than a real Porsche and the modding guy doesn't care.
Great video, also great fan of the Spyder (any of them). Owned 20+ Porsche sports over the years and the two I haven't sold have been the 991.2 GT3 RS and the 981 Cayman GTS - in my view these are two of the best Porsche sports yet built but for very different reasons (I also happen to own a 600LT in BC, a 720S and a 296 GTB - so I'm not a pure Porscheaphile). One is pure adrenalin and has an amazing amount of performance and feedback and the other is a great balance of performance car with the right amount of power and capability on public roads where its all about corner speed and making the engine work to deliver pleasure. If I had to let one car go it would be the 600LT to be replaced with the very different 982 Spyder RS 😀 PS Not a great fan of the 992 series.
@@sarahdell4042 defend trust fund kid with connections made by daddy to get every business venture introduced and started by SR. There’s a reason this offends you.
Great story, cannot help feeling an opportunity was missed here. We have all seen Farahs strawberry shortcake before. What I would like is a little bit of footage of DeMan discussing his mods here. Then a Montage of canyon driving with Farahs voice overlayed discussing how he has been using it, roadtrips ect. I must say I think this may be my favorite YTer car currently. Anybody can twin turbo something, boring and camming a flat six is art.
