In my world, it would be lawfully REQUIRED of people who own awesome cars like these to drive them 'enthusiastically' so those who can't afford them can at least admire them. There is nothing worse than seeing a performance car driven by a 75 year old going 40mph on a motorway.
Boston 508617 You have to understand when these rumors came out no one had anyway of verifying if they where true or not. I just asked a question. If you knew Alex personally there’s plenty of ways to reveal the truth you know without being disrespectful . I know he put a ton of miles on the CGT he drove the balls of the car. I was a massive fan of his videos
When the car first came out it was this fellow "VRAlexander" ( for the first half year he called himself on youtube "ghost rider") I think he called himself that was the most prominent guy on youtube showcasing the car. I love how he revived the engine when at a stop and it would scare the living hell out of the yuppies having lunch at the restaurant patio. Sadlt he died in Porsche race with a 911.
Yes, and make it possible to recreate VRs wheel spec using the factory wheels, and the possibility to remove the roofs. I shared a VRAlexander spec CGT livery but it's not 100% accurate due to the wheels. Shame on playground for doing the CGT dirty. Sounds just like the E60 M5 in the game too. Garbage.
@@sasazapadnik9335 I spoke to him months before he died and he inspired me and is probably the reason I am the person I am today, he did what he had to do to live his dream good or bad but what is most important to me was that he inspired others to be themselves and chase there dreams... RIP VRAlexander❤️
@@MrJuice105 Trust me, I do not make my claims lightly. Last thing I want to do is speak ill of the deceased. But there are numerous situations where he de-frauded or scammed people (whether it was assets or currency) and then fled the city, state, country, etc. It's okay to follow your dreams and inspire others, but he did it in illegitimate ways, there are probably people who are still financially recovering from his actions.
Still one of the best car videos on internet to date, remember watching this when it first came out. RIP VR Alexander was really looking forward to you daily driving the 918
Indeed RIP Alex... he would not have gotten the 918. He was done with Porsche after the CGT carbon fiber issue. He would have gotten the Agera R instead, based on his admission of wanting to "take another look at Koenigsegg" not too long before he passed.
This is an article about the driver in the black Porsche. take a moment to remember him and give some respect. take from it what you... " VIRGINA CITY, Nev. -- A Las Vegas race car driver was killed when his Porsche slid off a curvy, mountain highway that had been closed to traffic for a sanctioned against-the-clock race. Alexander Djordjevic, 37, died Saturday afternoon while competing in the Speed by Spectre 341 Challenge near the historic mining town of Virginia City, Nevada Highway Patrol Trooper Chuck Allen said Monday."
Don't hate on these two. They were mostly just making noise. It's the rich boy equivalent of driving around with subwoofers rattling. If I kept my Stingray in second gear and the muffler set to track it would act the same way only not so high revving. These guys sound like motorcycles, not sure what their red line is but it sounds at least 9. Obnoxious is not the same as dangerous.
Spihkheart bust!? Spihk heart bust I just told Sarah from the holy Bible that people are being racist towards me all over on the planet can you find out what Sarah from the holy Bible did about me telling Sarah from the holy Bible that people are being racist towards me all over on the Planet !!!!!!!!!!!
Paul Walker who??? This car is suddenly getting lots of attention because some Hollywood schmo and an amateur ex racing driver were killed in one. This car has always been one of the all time greatest Porsche's.
the owner of the black Carrera gt also died. i read the article a few months ago and it was really sad since there wasn't much about it. the driver of the one in this video who died was also a formula 1 driver.
I came here after 5 years and back then this video felt with a better quality. Has my eye sight gotten worser? Never the lest favorite Gt Straight pipe video on YT.
Dan Frederiksen Carerra GT: 612 HP, 435 lb/ft torque, 0-60 in 3.8 seconds, top speed 205 mph. Tesla Roadster: 288 HP, 273 lb/ft torque, 0-60 in 3.7 seconds, top speed 125mph. I think your statement that the Porsche's engineering isn't impressive is a little unfounded. While it is impressive that an electric car is capable of that much power, it really can't compare to the Carrera. . .
the Porsche was also made in 2005 the telsa was made years later. for its time and still today the carerra GT is a very impressive piece of engineering. you must also remember its not all about straight line speeds on the track the Porsche is a lot faster.
Greatest car ever made this car has been criticized so much after the Paul walker incident mainly by amateur people who don't know much about cars very unfortunate for what happened to roger and Paul but both of them Even loved this car thank you Porsche.
lol, they call the cgt a deathtrap for a reason and the owner of the black cgt(alex) handled it really well. sadly, he died in his 996tt which is ridiculously faster.
No el de paul walker es otro pero con el mismo sistema de escape pero de color rojo algo curioso es que el dueño de este porsche carrera gt negro murio en un accidente automovilístico en un porsche
Apparently all of youtube has driven in Cali now.... Those streets are packed, they're definitely getting called assholes by about half of the city...the other half is in love. Great vid.
VRAlexander was a real driver. You see his other videos you'd know. He was doing reverse j-turns in his car at the texas mile. Plus his top speed run video of his car at the mile. He was one of the few cool exotic owners who mastered the CGT to the fullest.
The Carrera GT is Porsche's way of saying " See, we can make loud and flashy cars too ! " To the other super car brands. And the best part is, it sounds so much better than any Ferrari, Lambo, ect...
if you knew anything, you'd realize the passenger recording isnt the owner of the vehicle. i dont know how you make the assumption. how many videos do you see from 2008 that are in hd?
variable valve timing on the intake valves makes a big difference on a smaller engined car never mind a 5.7 v10 bet it utterly scarey when on the 2nd cam lobe
This is in Los Angeles in the Valley (san Fernanando). The city is separated by a mountain range. Take that Denver. The will get on 405 freeway but they will not go into LA city but will turn around and stay in the valley. Like NY there is traffic so the did this during lunch.
So many haters. Loved every second of this video. Two CGT drivers having a blast, including plenty of head turns, confused drivers and a wtf moment for the Lambo driver. These are the streets of the "Westside" throughout LA, including Beverly Hills at the start and the last sprint being on the 10W off Centinela. As a Porsche owner, I am humbled by these beasts, and the many great cars I see daily while cruising these same streets, meanwhile y'all hatin' on the dudes camera?
Usually only asshats get off on throttling their exhaust in neighborhood livingrooms, pressing pedestrians to hurry up through the crosswalk, and screaming look at me I need attention. If you got your jollies out of second gear on a track I would think either showing off or being a prick on public streets would lessen. But then again nothing will probably change until you make a kid on a bicycle your new hood ornament or some motorcyclist on the freeway you didn't see ...... "he just poped out of nowhere". Then all the apologies to the family and fear of losing all your money in spite of your amazing lawyers and golden insurance. Hopefully it is just a light pole instead
In early 2015 I saw 2 carrera gt’s on rodeo so loud people were covering ears. Was is likely these? Or after 7 years they weren’t still terrorizing? lol

Never gets old haha.
Spencer Berke Was thinking the same. Classic video for sure.
The black CGT went missing after he died was it ever found ?

Imagine this video in 4k. It'd be one of the best videos out there! Great video nonetheless
With 60fps would be even more porn
i can probably upscale the video on my computer
El Diablo im gonna try rn
No need for 4K. It's fine in it's original format.
When the cops are away, the Carreras shall play...
You touch the gas and it seems to slide. Pure power
This video is 12 years old, but still one of the best in TH-cam... love it
Now it’s 16 years old…. Time is flying….
in 2024 and the VIDEO still blurry - no point watching it.

good for you man!
Damn video quality looking like 1990 it was 08 when this was filmed, man technology today is crazy

sound better than Lambo or Ferrari
nam truong top sounds are Carrera GT, zonda, aventador, 812 super fast

Gotta love TH-cam algorithm 😂

This has got to be my 10th time at least watching this video over the last few years. Great vid

gametocken Thanks men
I think the 918 has it beat, but I wouldn't complain if someone gave me a Carrera GT.
these are one of the most amazing sounding cars out there!
1:52 RIP Lambo
my response was ... "wow nice gallardo" when they passed it... nothing wrong with a nice gallardo
obliterated
Ride In Peace Paul Walker
This remains one of the most epic Carrera GT videos out there!
Probably my most favourite V10 engine ever
7:26 this is the reason i need to study hard now
I came here after 5 years and back then this video felt with a better quality. Has my eye sight gotten worser? Never the lest favorite Gt Straight pipe video on YT.
driving a Porsche GT and filming with a calculator? WTF!
It was filmed 6 years ago
Scott Lim Cameras were known to be in existence 6 years ago...
Dutch Skill but youtube upload quality did not
Yea i don't think calculators can film...
neither can potatoes
I've watched this video over a hundred times and still have not gotten tired of this video!!!!
This video is still iconic that I still come back to it.
These like the Murci SV launch in London, will go down as iconic.
Best sound for car....................
AWE exhaust
The black one is VRAlexander's CGT... Drove off a cliff in a hillclimb race in a 911... Not what I expected after I saw the video. R.I.P
BlaZe iT love that Koenigsegg. Saw it once personally in the garage.
norwegiangangsta I LOVE EVERY Koenigsegg... Amazing cars
Are these straight piped?
Yeah
@Mike M Waited 7 years but I'm glad I got response :) hahaha
Still the best CGT video
Still one of the best GT videos out there. That sound, Oh my God!!

the porsche started earlier in 2004
Cate Cowan You're an idiot, instant torque dumbass.
Cate Cowan plus the CGT came out in 2005 making those stats👀
Cate Cowan Porsche is Always conservative in their number as well. Be it HP or top end etc.
Hey the dude in the black one drives like me. XD
2:15 oh fuckk
That may be the only time i'd up thumb a 240p video! Please tell me there's a 720 version of it somewhere??
CGTs sounds incredibly wicked!!!!
THIS is the reason I'm working towards being rich ASAP. :D
How did it go??
Yo how did it go man?
cgt what else to say
Greatest car ever made this car has been criticized so much after the Paul walker incident mainly by amateur people who don't know much about cars very unfortunate for what happened to roger and Paul but both of them Even loved this car thank you Porsche.
it was only criticized cause the media brainwashed them. all Supercars can be dangerous if driven inappropriately.
Dear god i love Porsche
i'd never get bored of that sound!
240p...how can you do this to us? :(
8Dimension I know right, 4K cameras existed in 2008!
R.I.P.
They don't care about your opinions they're just enjoying their multimillion dollar car collections, all u people here at butt hurt
Classic, iconic video 😂❤
@deKay88 No. He is a legend. He died last year doing a uphill race in his heavily modded 996 Turbo
Absolut cool :p
is it me or do carreras kill a lot of people? lol

Well i hope you dont kill a lot of people :)
Richard Caballero any car can kill not just super cars
These 2 probably killed a few... From a heart attack lol
German Cars :o)
uploaded in 2008? it looks like 1988 tho 😅. someone recreate this please
Blame youtube for not supporting HD back then.
R.I.P. VRAlexander :(
driving expensive cars and using cheap crap camcorders, lol
the videos is from 2008 what you expect? a 4k graphics?

since i was a kid i would watch this almost everyday !
To this day one of the best toaster productions on TH-cam
Clearly you have no clue how youtube worked back in the day.

sorry but this has got to be the best car video on youtube! i mean super speeders are good but this is off the hook!
VR Alexander is the owner of one these cars, he was a car enthusiast/businessman. They likely know each other from the racing scene.
I love the sound!
@916chaco lol thanks! :)
RIP VRAlenxader
Best music to my ears.
I sure wish I could afford one of those. Heck with the speed, I would just drive them for the sound of the exhaust.
@Chunpower Thats why CGT's have carbon ceramic brakes, so it doesnt affect them
Nice video man. Beautiful cars. Love the engine note
nice vid and that sound!
The Carrera GT is Porsche's way of saying " See, we can make loud and flashy cars too ! " To the other super car brands. And the best part is, it sounds so much better than any Ferrari, Lambo, ect...
U killing that Porsche's.Its like holding a wild horse in your house.
if you knew anything, you'd realize the passenger recording isnt the owner of the vehicle. i dont know how you make the assumption. how many videos do you see from 2008 that are in hd?
Thats why they have an insanely high death rate on the roads over there. But it sure is fun to watch! I love the Land Rovers on 2 wheels
Love the Orange on that GT, this was a lovely video.
@Speedracer38 were these you and your friends cars? or did you rent them, if so where?

All time favourite clip... CGT is the ultimate untamed supercar EVER!!!
Back in the day when TH-cam videos couldn't be longer than 10 minutes.
Hair trigger gas pedal. 650hp-800hp. Mid engine. Beast mode.
I watched this in 2008. My 370z is now as loud lol. An inspiration.

Black Porsche is a bit wreck less. Nice video!
One of my top 10 favourite videos on TH-cam
If you rent next time a Carrera GT, tell me that, I will buy you a good camera for filming ;-)
But the video is great! Excellent driving!
So many haters. Loved every second of this video. Two CGT drivers having a blast, including plenty of head turns, confused drivers and a wtf moment for the Lambo driver. These are the streets of the "Westside" throughout LA, including Beverly Hills at the start and the last sprint being on the 10W off Centinela. As a Porsche owner, I am humbled by these beasts, and the many great cars I see daily while cruising these same streets, meanwhile y'all hatin' on the dudes camera?
difference is... if they swerve hard right. the brembo's, ECU, and performance will keep them from crashing horribly.
Usually only asshats get off on throttling their exhaust in neighborhood livingrooms, pressing pedestrians to hurry up through the crosswalk, and screaming look at me I need attention. If you got your jollies out of second gear on a track I would think either showing off or being a prick on public streets would lessen. But then again nothing will probably change until you make a kid on a bicycle your new hood ornament or some motorcyclist on the freeway you didn't see ...... "he just poped out of nowhere". Then all the apologies to the family and fear of losing all your money in spite of your amazing lawyers and golden insurance. Hopefully it is just a light pole instead

this video was posted in 2008 but the quality appears 90's
Thats because youtube chopped quality down to a maximum of 480p regardless of what resolution you filmed in.
