Nice overview. Normally not a fan of black as a color choice on cars, but I like the metallic shimmer on this one. You’re a lucky man, enjoy in good health.
Very much appreciated, thank you! Black is such a hard color to keep looking clean, it’s like every speck of dust or any rock chips are just highlighted🙄. I appreciate your feedback and compliments! I hope you have a great day👍
Yeah you’re right Im sure that it is easier on the car that way lol. I do it both ways, sometimes I let it slam a little to keep my finger prints off the paint haha. The front trunk requires that you close it with your palm though. It is made of aluminum and would terribly damage the hood very quickly.
I would love to get those times for you I hope to get one soon. Awesome to hear input from someone with the same car and similar modifications! Stay posted and I’ll have the times and some races up on my channel soon.
Dope review. 🔥 718. That colour really looks good in the sun. Picked mine up about 2 months about. 718s Guards red, PDK, with a options out the ass. Definitely looking for more of your content. So the tune added roughly 50hp... Can you open your trunks by touching front bumber and touching rear bumber?
Thanks, I appreciate that! Guards red is a beautiful color too. The tune added slightly more than 50hp not sure exactly, though. 350 stock is crank hp while I’m getting about 400 wheel hp.
I don’t have auto dimming folding mirrors. I live in America so I’m not worried about the folding mirrors. I believe parking spaces here are a lot more spacious than some countries in Europe. The dimming would be nice to have but I live in the country side so it’s not too often that I have big trucks with bright LED’s behind me👍
I find it to be a waste of a nice car using it for point A to Point B in traffic or highways. I enjoy it for spirited driving. If I can afford a cheaper and more comfortable car for daily driving that performs better during the winters and keeps it out of the salt I don’t see why not to have 2 cars. As long as I’m being financially responsible anyway.
Nobody talks about price because Porsche has so many options probably. You can add like 35k just in additional options so it varies. The MSRP on this car was 78K with all the options on it. I bought it when it was 2 years old with 397 miles on it. It was barely driven so I got a good deal on it and def paid a lot less than the MSRP.
400 hp to the wheel ?? Is that perhaps being just a bit generous ?? An extra 50 hp, to the wheel, is pushing it for a flash tune / electronic modification. Everyone talks about lots of more power but without a dyno, it is just speculation.
Yes, it’s true. You can find the dyno sheet on APR’s website. I also go into a deep explanation here in this video. th-cam.com/video/BIKdBpA1vEs/w-d-xo.html The idea is that the car was manufactured and sold by Porsche underpowered in order to maintain the hierarchy of all of their trim levels and models. With a tune you’re able to push the components to its limits. Porsche can’t have a cheaper car out performing a more expensive car. It would hurt their sales, it’s done from a marketing perspective. The upside is that tuners are able to make more power with a flash tune by simply adding fuel and increasing boost. Now obviously it goes further in depth than that but that’s the idea!

Let me know if I missed anything! I’ll do my best to answer in as much detail as possible.

really nice video - just started looking on the market for one of these (in the UK) - appreciate all the detail in here!
I’m glad to hear u found some value in my video! Wish u luck in getting a great deal for one of these in the UK👍
Great video, I have the exact same car and same colour, didn’t know the there was a key in the fob 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Thank you!
Great detail 👌
Thank you very much sir
Really nice car. But I also really enjoyed the detailed overview.
Thanks mac
You’re not supposed to slam the trunk hatch closed. You pull it down gently until it touches and then you press it down with your palm to close.
Yeah you’re right Im sure that it is easier on the car that way lol. I do it both ways, sometimes I let it slam a little to keep my finger prints off the paint haha. The front trunk requires that you close it with your palm though. It is made of aluminum and would terribly damage the hood very quickly.
Thanks for the detail
You’re welcome!
Would love your draggy times and maybe some races in the future. Have the same car w/ the tune! 👍🏻 Really appreciate the content.
I would love to get those times for you I hope to get one soon. Awesome to hear input from someone with the same car and similar modifications! Stay posted and I’ll have the times and some races up on my channel soon.
He blew my mind witht the hidden key lol. Thanks!
Hahah! You’re welcome!

Also no, I can't open my trunks by touching them I have to use the buttons.
Well done 👍. Nice overview !!!
Thank you!👍
Do you have auto dimming folding mirrors , I think not? How is it without this option?
I don’t have auto dimming folding mirrors. I live in America so I’m not worried about the folding mirrors. I believe parking spaces here are a lot more spacious than some countries in Europe. The dimming would be nice to have but I live in the country side so it’s not too often that I have big trucks with bright LED’s behind me👍
what is the point of not using it as your daily
I find it to be a waste of a nice car using it for point A to Point B in traffic or highways. I enjoy it for spirited driving. If I can afford a cheaper and more comfortable car for daily driving that performs better during the winters and keeps it out of the salt I don’t see why not to have 2 cars. As long as I’m being financially responsible anyway.
Did you do both the apr ecu and tcu tunes? Awesome car!
Thank you! I haven’t done the tcu tune.
Better get those orange side markers sorted.
Yessir they will be sorted out here soon🫡
ppl talking about the car, gimme that house omg, beautiful nature around it
Hahaha it is quite beautiful here! I live in northern Kentucky I love it here. Love our summers.
Awesome machine. Save the manuals
Nobody talks about prices! how much this car is costs?
Nobody talks about price because Porsche has so many options probably. You can add like 35k just in additional options so it varies. The MSRP on this car was 78K with all the options on it. I bought it when it was 2 years old with 397 miles on it. It was barely driven so I got a good deal on it and def paid a lot less than the MSRP.
Since the engine is inside so is it hot in the inside?
Nope not at all. I don’t feel a difference compared to a normal front engine car.
Is this a 2023?
No, this is a 17’
What year is it🤔
This is a 2017.
Have you try 0-100?
I have not timed a 0-100 time but I can get back with ya on that
I’m back
Oh hi good to see u
Hay😊
