The Porsche 918 is the most radical Porsche of all time. With a groundbreaking hybrid system and 887 horsepower on tap, this bad Bavarian can go toe to toe with nearly anything on the road. But how did Porsche end up building it in the first place? Join James as he explores the history of Porsche supercars from the Porsche 959, Porsche Carrera GT, and of course the PORSCHE 918!!!

*this was posted 8 months ago what a coincidence eh? The Ferrari F40 came out 8 months after the 959*
@@blockblock5193 coincidence? THINK NOT
Works for money, but not so much powah, that status the sane
Inflation its called i think: D
The boss at Porsche basically said when they designed this car "Do everything that must be done...but don't you DARE touch that Porsche crest."
It’s great
Imo it's too small of a crest
70 % Porsche history
30 % Porsche 918
:D
And an extra 10% pure James Pumphrey...
extra few percent #RIPPaulWalker
BUT THATS THE BEST PART ABOUT IT
not complaining tho
Actually almost perfectly right, 71.3% was just Porsche history

The acceleration,the 918 has,is just ridiculous.0-60 in 2,2 seconds,for a production car!
I remember watching the old Top Gear episode,where Richard Hammond was test driving it and he said:''This car accelerates so fast,your brain is too slow to process it.''
Now waiting for the Tesla Roadster
And then it got beat by a modified nissan patrol
not rolling out the production line right?
you talking about those 2000hp UAE nissan patrols, well in that case they are some 4bangers that can win to both and its like cmparin oranges and apples!
@@shibyguy420 hence why I said "modified", everyone know that a patrol ain't gonna catch a 918
@@yahyasajid5113 so whats your point? commenting on a very known fact, youre afirming what everybody else knows. but anyways i love patrols!
That Will Smith scene is gold in this episode! Literally can’t wait for this show every Thursday
Thanks Bryan!
Idk he knows that it's an actual clip from yt rewind
Infinity war hishe dubs Thanos rewinds time to get mind stone the same will Smith thing happens when Thanos says Ahhyeeah THaTs HoT!!
Okay so almost 10 minutes of history. Is a nice!
That’s what made this episode worth it. Learning the roots and where Porsche pulled the engines from. Plus, why the cars were developed.
Great show Humphrey.
It's Pumphrey.
Pumphrey u dunce boi . . . like the Pumphrey 502
"Drivers loved the 918" .. I can't even afford to run my diesel Forester ffs.
@@ZAH33D Thank you and you are appreciated. (:
@@CloudyShinobi Thank you for that. And I appreciate you joining this conversation. (:
The Carrera GT is like the German NSX, test driven and co developed by a legend: Walter Röhrl
dont compare a masterpiece to a rice cooker
@Noah Tabraham thats why its a mans car you soy boys wont understand that. it takes balls to tame a beast
@@soundofeighthooves NSX is the true Ferrari killer though. The Porsche was left in Enzo's shadow.
@@RafitoOoO lol..... youre pathetic soy boy
@@soundofeighthooves the poor guy who will never drive a Carrera in his lifetime got so offended by a fact that decided to insult me lmao. Go back to your mom's basement, loser.

Or maybe a wheelhouse on weird looking cars
Or a Prius.Or a Multipla

Or his dad

Love it, when you try to pronounce the german words... in german. Epic cute and honest touch to the footage.
As a german it really hurts tho
Its also funny af lmao
@@kaiimee8465 especially the words that aren’t that hard. Americans could really try a little bit harder to pronounce foreign words. Others try to speak correct English in return.
@@derpinguin7003 german wprds are hard tho
@@kaiimee8465 there are plenty difficult English words also. I work a lot with British and American people and sadly most don’t even try to pronounce German words correctly. Mainly on the basis of „everyone speaks English, so why should we learn another language“. On the other hand I try my best to speak good English as a sign of respect. I’d wish the same amount of respect would come from English natives towards foreign languages.
@@derpinguin7003 ja hast schon recht so aber deutsch mit lauten wie sch und sowas is halt schon nich so leicht für englischsprachige
Couldn't get a 918 for the background
So got the next best thing a golf ❤

Hol up you said the 959 top speed was 190, and the F40 top speed was 199 , but the f40 was 2 more miles per. I thought you were a math boy
Im glad im not the only one who caught that
I'm prettty sure that was either a joke or a bad editing (cutting out the good take with 197 mph)/simple mistake.
He also said the f40 had like 270 hp once lol
Your so smart you don’t get sarcasm.... 👍🏼
And said that 9r3 had flat six and couple seconds after called it an inline six
Porsche ain’t top speed bois but they rip the twistys
THE TWISTYS
Yeah try taking an F40 off road too. Major clearance problems.... the 959 no problem
That's why Porsche is the king of leman.
This is why the 918 is my favorite of the holy Trinity.

@StripperTipper-405 I used to be a a fan of healthy immigration. But then I started getting a bit worried when the africans swarmed europe. but Africans can at least integrate into a new society over time. Then we have the middle easterners... holy sh**. Europe might have more common car rammers and train bombers if they don't help trump build a wall around the middle east.

God knows this is my FAVORITE channel out of all my time on youtube.. And i been here before channels were monitized
It was the fastest production car IN ZE VORRRLD
The quickest production car on the Nordschleife for a few months? Yeah. But the fastest production car in the world? The 918? LOL never ever! The 959 was (more than 30 years ago). Porsche (along with Ferrari, McLaren and Lamborghini), doesn't even chase speed records anymore.
@@MDDeGrande1994 acceleration my guy, acceleration
episode wishlist:
RS200
Escorts
6R4
850R
Starion
Testarossa
colt cat 1996 impala ss
And LFA
RS200 and Escorts would be awesome. Or a episode about Ford RS in general.
@@FuryCola13 I think RS200 is just too weird of a thing to not having the same length of coverage as the Quattro. :)
The testarossa wasn’t that good
a video titled porsche 918 only has 3 min about the 918. lol. but it was all super enjoyable. love what you guys do. keep up the good work
Porche 918 is one of my dream car.
The beauty and the power of this thing is unparalleled 🔥
Please make “more powa baby” t shirts!!!! Thanksss
That Pennywise though
Hey beautiful shout me out
You you are back don't you have anything else to do

Justin Y. Hi
why are you everywhere
first episode ive watched of this channel and i subscribed. You’re a mix of jack black, matty matheson, and your very own comedic taste. Clean and funny editing, knowledge on cars, what more is there to ask for?
will be watching more!
9:57 Jay Leno isn’t the only celebrity who got scared in one of those.
I love up to speed. Should maybe make a Plymouth barracuda video or even Honda CRX
The Plymouth Fury would be pretty cool to see, mostly because I want to hear James scream FURRRRRRRYYYY!!!!!
"Drivers loved the 918" .. I can't even afford to run my diesel Forester ffs.
Thanks for this informative video the 918 is my supercar dreamcast 😇
Can you please make one video on Mercedes Benz G CLASS
Yes!!! Its one of my fav suv's
@@kingofohio5689 ik it's my favourite too and it's so cool!!!!!!
🤣🎊🎉yay Porsche video!!!
I even own a Porsche 959
It's a hot wheels tho...
Lol you got me at first I was like no way lmao

Love it! Earned a sub!!
I love how much top gear footage and reference there is in this..
I left Daddy Doug Kia Soul Vid for you James 😘

Same here
I watched the whole thing. Then came here.
Drove #714 at my old valet job, owner told me to rip it down the road and I couldn't pass up that chance. Got up to 80 mph real quick. One of the best moments ever!
Did a school research for my vehicle engineering module back in school. Uses the Porsche 918 as the subject.
Fell in love ever since...
An episode on the Ford maverick would be cool. Nice show
This channel is in a really awesome place right now. You guys are doing some cool stuff and keep people interested. Kudos to you Donut media. Loving every video that come out.
I just love the fact that, this episode's about one of my favourite cars, and there's another one of them right behind you ♥️
I know that Porsche is your favourite car but Ferrari is better
Faris Fako it aint
i love this content, i suggest in the next episodes talk about "RWB" coz is related with PORSCHE too, it might be a good episode !!
I love your format. Never change.
Pretty disappointed that this story didn't start with the 550 Spyder, the original ancestor of the 918
FrndsCallMeDaz The 550 is worthy of its own UTS.
Finally, someone has done their homework and acknowledges Carrera GT's F1-derived engine.
Aside from that, this episode has to be my favorite thus far with Porsche's holy trinity.
great video...great research...thank you
Love the video. Informative and funny.
Up to speed on the Mazda Cosmos!
Hey donut afternoon I'm from jamaica. Can you do a everything to knw about the p1 please, and also I'm subscribed to you for 2 years

Who makes the Ferrari LaFerrari again?
Ferrari
Kia
Fiat 😂
Honda did they just renamed it the 2005 NSX but kept the red color
Chrysler ofc
2.2s 0-100kph thats faster that every road car, faster that a formula 1, faster than all the bugattis, paganis, EVERYTHING, that thing is a beast
Omg the way you said steuer Kupplung was the best thing I heard this year
powa baby
Ey baby mo powah
mo powa baby
Mo powah baby
Yeah mo powah baby
Next UTS Porsche should be the 718, and it’s evolution into the Boxter/Cayman
By farr one of my favorite cars ever .. 🙌🙌🙌
The carrera gt concept car is located in Leipzig Germany I saw it there it's so cool
