Porsche 911 - A German Driving Legend in Italy

  • With its many curves, elevation changes, and natural beauty, the Italian countryside is a perfect place to own a vintage car. While many dream of the legendary cars to roam these roads, when Donato Maniscalco was ten years old, his car of dreams was a Porsche 911. Years later that dream was realized when he purchased a 1968 Porsche 911t. Instead of keeping his collection of cars and his 911 in a garage, Donato observes the rich history of Italian motoring and regularly participates in rallies and drives. Donato can regularly be found whipping his car around the beautiful country hillsides of Italy.

    Wow I'm a little disappointed in some of the comments here. Are you people seriously complaining about the car in the video? All of this content is free to you. Not a single penny from any of you makes any of this happen. All of this content by the way is very unique and unusual to the car world. If you don't like it or don't like seeing "another" 911, feel free to go watch something else.

    • @Buttnut105
      @Buttnut105 10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I'm not saying you can't comment, nor can you point me to where I did. You have the freedom to say whatever you want. It doesn't even have to be coherent, or in this case, logical or reasonable. All of this content is totally, utterly free to you and everyone else. You contribute nothing to production, directing, editing, or anything in between. And yet, you take issue with it. Ever hear "beggars can't be choosers"? You're not even doing that much. I'm not saying you should do one thing or the other. I just want to at least try and make you aware of how absurd your point of view is.

    • @Buttnut105
      @Buttnut105 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No, Yahmeer, I'm sure you weren't trying to be an ass; you just are one. Are you seriously gonna insinuate that I believe my personal views matter to the people behind these videos? You're the one taking issue with them making "another" 911 video and saying that if they're gonna make this a classic 911 channel, they should "say that". That's interesting coming from the one who believes "these videos are driven by views", and not someone's "personal views".
      And like I said in my original comment, if you don't like what they're putting out, feel free to watch something else. Though I think we both know you're not going anywhere.

    • @Buttnut105

      Regardless of the content, what is wrong with people saying their opinions since there is a comment section? I thing every single video is great but I can understand others having different opinions and that would not make me to tell them go watch something else which means get out. And he never insulted you. By that logic we are never allowed to comment anything on TH-cam cause it's all free.

    • @Buttnut105
      @Buttnut105 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      bezor Ta People are just as free to say whatever they like as I am to comment on it. I never said people couldn't comment. That's the second time someone's accused me of that and the second time they've been wrong.

    When I start hearing comments like "too many Porsches!" I start to become suspicious that I am in the wrong place. This channel could be ONLY 911s and it would still be awesome. No other car has such an iconic and unbroken lineage as the 911 and it's an amazing way to experience owning a vintage car that looks and feels like an age gone by. YOU the average person can go out and buy one, drive it everyday to work, race it on weekends, customize it or restore it, join passionate clubs devoted to it, and pass it on to your kids (or not). The dedication of the owners in these videos isn't even unique, it's just what owning a 911 is all about. What better subject could there be for an automotive video?

    • @moonpagan
      @moonpagan 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Whatever is the matter with the naysayers here..
    It's a Porsche, an old one, in lovely order.. in Italy, one of the most BEAUTIFUL countries in Europe..
    The owner seems a real nice man, not a bit FAT [?].. and as all Italians are style concious.. he is wearing a jacket and a tie. So what.! he's Italian.. it's what they do.. GET OVER IT.!
    I would be there in a heartbeat.. the car is lovely, the film is beautiful.. well done you lot for giving us Joy again..the BEST on Ytube by a mile.
    As for the Porsche haters.. go find another home. Perhaps.

    The 911 is also one of my favorite cars, but only the air cooled ones. The older, the more beautiful. Not many people seem to know that this car was originally not designed as a sports car, but as a GT. A daily driver plus, so to say.

  • @pirodaniel2733
    @pirodaniel2733 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Petrolicious videos are by far the best classic car clips in the net. Real
    enthusiast talk about their passion to art on 4 wheels. These old 911 are true icons of motoring history. It's not about silly horsepower and it never was. The combination of timeles design combined with technic of it's time is what makes just metal unforgettable. I am glad to own a nice old flat six aircooled and I will never get bored looking at it.

  • @adam872
    @adam872 9 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    I only found this channel yesterday but already I love it. Well produced and done in the words of the car owners themselves. I'm especially loving the Porsche videos, because what strikes me, other than the love of the owners for their cars, is that they drive the cars frequently and often pretty hard. That's great and what these vehicles are designed for. A well maintained Porsche is a proper every day super/sports car and that's one of the reasons why I love that brand.

    I had the pleasure to drive for one whole day a 912 and a 911 T . I was very disapointed with the 911T that I found terribly "clumsy" and lacking of power. I enjoyed far better the 912, much lighter and fun to drive. I am sure that a E or a S is a totally different world, but frankly, 911 T first gen with 110 HP... I'll pass.

      you're not wrong. I've driven every early 911 model and owned a 2.4S oelkappe for many years. A well sorted 912 with just 100bhp is much more fun and just as quick under 100mph. Lighter, better balanced , gutsy and with delightful handling and steering feel. I love the metallic sound of the 911 engine but 616 motor on twin weber 44idf's sounds glorious too, if not as "thrashy"
