For a long time, the Porsche Carrera GT has been up towards the very top of my dream car list, standing out as a complete icon of its era. Thanks to @thesupercargarage_ I have the opportunity to take the keys and push on in this fantastic car to see what it's really like! Is it one of the greatest cars ever? Let's find out! instagram.com/thesupercargarage_
It really is a timeless design, crazy to think this car came out in 2003.. In my opinion one of the best looking (and sounding) cars that have ever been built.
Love the car, favourite engine noise EVER, but equally liking the fact your past few videos (this and the 812) you’ve actually properly opened up the cars and shown that you are hooked on the car and how it should be driven, full credit to you Tim, legend of TH-cam
@@justafan3149 Nope. The car is located in Switzerland and has only got 80 miles on the clock. GT silver over the brown/burgundy mix interior. It's been brought up to date by the factory because it sat in a temperature controlled unit and was driven a few times a year for the past 13 and a bit years.
What...No pompous statement about what car to or should buy next? No arrogance or cheesiness? Just an honest, down to earth review...welcome back Shmee and please keep it up...
Yes, yes, yes! This is the best car ever made, beast looking, best sounding, best backstory, best everything! My favourite car ever, the pinnacle of human manufacturing. Btw it was also released the day I was born sooo....
Loved hearing that engine roar, had the pleasure of detailing one of the owners bentleys in The past and his collection just keeps growing. Such a down to earth guy
Not Shmee, but yeah, I would say this is the rival.. It's close, but the LFA still takes it for best sounding V10. LFA just sounds more refined, and revs higher... BUT, this has the manual transmish.
I show your videos to my father on TV as he is also a huge supercar lover...... He said he liked your immense knowledge about supercars and he wished u luck for your future uploads....... CHEERS😁😁
As much as I'm excited to see what magic we can come up with in terms of electric power, but it's cars like this that make me cry, because this sound will be very greatly missed. And not only that, but the gearbox, the clutch, the analogue feel of everything. I will greatly miss this.
Shmee150 I don’t think you wanna die i knew a guy who had one and he couldn’t go full throttle without burning the tires(and those cost as much as a camery)
Absolutely AWESOME as always Tim 👌👍🙂 A truly Beautiful Classic Super Car, and one of the 'last Analog' experiences that will ever be 🙂 and that Sound! A screaming V10 F1 derived engine, there isn't many better 🙂 (perhaps the LFA 😉) But thank you so much for taking the time and efforts to bring us such a great video 🙂 Keep up the great work 👍🙂 All the best, Mark👍
Hey Shmee, you said its not the loudest thing in the world, anyways the sound sint the greatest from inside, the sound really isnt meant for the driver.To hear it scream in its full glory you have to stand outside of the car (i know standing inside the car wont be to easy anyways xD). So what i wanna say is from inside you have just heart a tiny percentage of how cool the sound actually is its even wayyyy more awesome from outside.
The front looks like a Cayman the back looks like a ruff a great combination to make a legend track and road car legally a monster it's sound is glorious there's no Porsche to be better than this ever. Keep this up Shmee 😀👍
Honest question, is there a single bad sounding V10 out there? I agree with your list as a top 3, maybe exchanging the m5 for a Performante, but out of curiosity, I am wondering if you know any bad sounding V10s?
another EPIC ride along with you Tim, two thumbs up my good man! saw you posts on IG and was looking forward to some more epic content and a ferocious ride along in one of those beasts! lol keep up the superlative efforts as it is appreciated far and wide, good good vibes from the Chilcotin my friends, enjoy the gift that is each day eh! 8^)
You probably wouldnt believe me...I own a Black One with Terra Cotta Interior...I bought mine in San Francisco and couldnt take it out of 2nd Gear...I know how to keep it in gear and revved...Gotta love that V10 though...It really is a Symphony....I promise you...
The CGT displays some of the same characteristics of a commercial truck when it comes to taking off from a stand still. With Semi's here in the U.S. it is best to let the torque of the engine get you rolling and then use the throttle once you are moving the same as the CGT.

remember me
Carrera GT or Senna?
Thought it was you driving past me in that carrera gt . Sounded nice as
Tim, thanks for the review, the last of the real "driver" supercars. What are your other two all time favorite cars?
This really is the car you need Tim ! Much more glorious and wonderful vs a Senna or a Ford GT !
The design is timeless and that sound is out of this world

next to the lamborghini murcielago lp640, this car sounds cute😂😜
Porsche Carrera GT Dream Car!! WOW 🤩
The Porsche Carrera GT is one of the best cars ever made!
Mohammed Mulla fully agree!
Not one of, it's is the best
No the best car is the peel 500
@@bmautomotive3337 until the valkyrie will be on public roads. Then we will have a contended victory IMO
Carrera GT, 959, 918, and all 911 models are all among the greatest cars ever made. Porsche really knows how to make an amazing automobile.
We miss it mate! Old is GOLD!! when will you add it to your collection ?!
Man, the Porsche Carrera GT is everyone's Icon! 😍
Best sounding V10 from this era 😎 (NFSMW fanboy here)
Tim can’t hide when he’s excited.
Chris E93 i mean, why would you ?😂
Beautiful Porsche

The legendary sound of the Carerra GT is just so eargasmic... one of my favorite supercar of all times...
I have access to a delivery mileage Carrera GT which is significantly below market value. Maybe it could be the first analog Shmeemobile?
By all means DM the details on Instagram! Thank you
@@Shmee150hes probably joking and is talking about a toycar

@@mrflyingsourcer3515 amazing
was it stored at Aston Martin St-Gallen ?@@mrflyingsourcer3515
one of the best sounding cars of all time
Vareos Potshoterzz absolutely 😍
Shmee you drove the carerra like a boss!!
What...No pompous statement about what car to or should buy next? No arrogance or cheesiness? Just an honest, down to earth review...welcome back Shmee and please keep it up...
Shmee is always smiling in his videos but his smile when around the Carrera GT is so much brighter. I also love that car.
It is truly brilliant, currently I’m only 15 and I was fortunate enough to get to sit in one and rev the engine! What an experience it was!

This sound rivals that of the LFA
I love these 2 V10 legendary sounds for ever! What about you Shmee?
Not Shmee, but yeah, I would say this is the rival.. It's close, but the LFA still takes it for best sounding V10. LFA just sounds more refined, and revs higher... BUT, this has the manual transmish.
Sahil King E60 M5 V10 is a sound rival too imo!
@@jasondeol3 naah we talking about very high pitched V10.
The M5 V10 is comparable to the Gallardo which still sounds like a beast!
Sahil King I’d say the s85 v10 is right up there haha
@@jasondeol3 yeah probably but i'd classify it as a higher pitched Viper =)
The Carrera GT is one of my dream Porsche
Have fun dying in it like Walker...
@@MlDN1GHT dead joke m8
@@basithph8958 bro I’m serious it’s the dangerous car on the road.
@@MlDN1GHT yeah but you don't have to wish death on someone

Thanks to you both
Every time i hear the Carrera GT, I have to think of Need For Speed Most Wanted
Even in Forza Motorsport Horizon
2005
Wasn’t it NFS carbon that had this as the best car?

Another awesome review Shmee. Very inspirational!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed the video
Always do! @@Shmee150
Gear shifts really looks smooth 😍
It gives me tears of joy when I hear the V10!! 😭😍😍 when I hear the noise it feels like someone serenades me with a live song 😍😍
I love the CGT
Hey Tim...I am your massive fan and I just love your videos as they are just mind bending and top notch.....
Porsche Carrera GT 😍 one day, drive it in the Autobahn ! Pure pleasure, i guess ! 😍🤩 Love this from France 😉
Will you be adding this to your collection someday ?
It would be a dream, but I think moving towards 'classics' or cars that aren't new (or nearly new) will come further down the line
Shmee150 I don’t think you wanna die i knew a guy who had one and he couldn’t go full throttle without burning the tires(and those cost as much as a camery)
6:04 that noise after the gear shift is from most wanted and it’s the perfect one
I’ve been watching your videos for years, and 😃 I don’t think I’ve ever seen you happier, Tim!
Best supercar ever
Thats a nice car that Porsche.
Great video Shmee 👍
BEST CHANNEL ON TH-cam
Thanks for the support!
The smile on you're face is worth a pretty penny lol love it Tim 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love the CGT. You will have one eventually. It is really cool to see you grow and cultivate your collection over the years.
Watching Shmee makes my cheek muscles tired. Shmee the type of guy who sleep with a smile on his face.
Absolutely awesome,everyone says the only thing wrong with this car is the price,well done Tim.
Absolutely AWESOME as always Tim 👌👍🙂
A truly Beautiful Classic Super Car, and one of the 'last Analog' experiences that will ever be 🙂 and that Sound! A screaming V10 F1 derived engine, there isn't many better 🙂 (perhaps the LFA 😉)
But thank you so much for taking the time and efforts to bring us such a great video 🙂
Keep up the great work 👍🙂
All the best,
Mark👍
You should have your own tv show lots of people will love it
That sound it makes... Would of course take the Carrera GT instead of the Bugatti
But love even more the F40 !!!!!
the design of that car is timeless!
As a man who has tried this vehicle, could you tell us how easy or difficult it would be to lose control when driving it at 100 Mph?
We need to cherish these cars now while we can!!!!
The sound of that v10 gives me goosebumps every time I hear it
Never used to be a Porsche fan until the Carrera GT came along and then the 918 sealed it. Great vid Tim.
Hey Shmee, you said its not the loudest thing in the world, anyways the sound sint the greatest from inside, the sound really isnt meant for the driver.To hear it scream in its full glory you have to stand outside of the car (i know standing inside the car wont be to easy anyways xD).

Porshe putting that engine in the CGT is the best decision made since nuclear war was averted in the 60s lmao
What an experience to drive a legend, only Shmee would deliver and the owner letting him drive one of his prized possessions!
Nfs hot pursuit 2 made me fall in love with this car!
Some people think its just a Porsche, but a Porsche is already a bit of a special thing
Carrera GT is one of the best looking and coolest cars ever made
My favorite car since Need For Speed Most Wanted 2005
Salomondrin owned cgt and this is better cgt video then any cgt video he ever put out, gj shmee, proper driving and exciting
"Hey Shmee I'm guy's" ~a legend once said this famous quote which I guess I'm never going to forget.
xD

best sounding V10's Porsche carrera gt, lexus lfa and bmw m5
Honest question, is there a single bad sounding V10 out there? I agree with your list as a top 3, maybe exchanging the m5 for a Performante, but out of curiosity, I am wondering if you know any bad sounding V10s?
@@chillinwithchris1536 1st gen vipers can sound pretty meh
@@slonky821 Good point. I was genuinely curious. Sounds like you can't really go wrong with a V10 haha.
Gallardo superleggera 1st Gen
Iove all the cars there.
That F40 tho 😍😍😍
Adam Winter no kidding! Oh by the way, an F40!
It’s strange how the v10 in this sounds so similar to my dads 930 air cooled 911, even though it’s the flat 6! The Cgt is a dream for me.
the best supercar ever and the best car youtuber ever, great video
another EPIC ride along with you Tim,
two thumbs up my good man!
saw you posts on IG and was looking forward to some more epic content and a ferocious ride along in one of those beasts!
lol
keep up the superlative efforts as it is appreciated far and wide,
good good vibes from the Chilcotin my friends,
enjoy the gift that is each day eh!
8^)
Glad you enjoyed the ride! Didn't want to hold back in this one
Although out of these I'd have the F40 you wouldn't say no would you. What a weapon.
This is just my all time favorite car
Great video. Love the Carrera, but having driven the Ferrari F40 as well, I think you might well find a new best ever drivers car.
You probably wouldnt believe me...I own a Black One with Terra Cotta Interior...I bought mine in San Francisco and couldnt take it out of 2nd Gear...I know how to keep it in gear and revved...Gotta love that V10 though...It really is a Symphony....I promise you...
Tim you deserve millions of views on every upload. Genuinely excellent consistently brilliant content. Cheers!
Appreciate ur explanation n dedication towards cars
Thanks for watching
@@Shmee150 thnx for d reply sir made my day ...😁😁
I prefer the Porsche Carrera GT. A perfect Super Sportscar 💯👍❗
Best car ever :) and best noise keep the good work
Glad to see you enjoy such a special car! Definitely on my short list as well 😉!
Hey Tim.... Carera GT is fantastic...... LOVE from INDIA😍😍
Thanks, hopefully will visit India at some point
Plz visit INDIA........ Love u so much bro...... Thank for replying to my comment..... CHEERS
A friend of mine has owned this very CGT twice, and I have been lucky enough to drive that very car.
From the time I clicked on the video I saw how excited you were about doing this
Congrats man
For sure, one of my favourite cars, a really special opportunity!
I reckon this is gonna be your next buy!!!!!!!!!!! Good for you bud, great car
If everything goes right, I'll be adding a black CGT to my collection this year. Can't wait!
Epic, very exciting!
The absolute pinnacle
We need to see more of that garage 👌🏼
What a car! Thanks again for a great video Shmee
This is a MUST have in your collection at sometime in the future
my dream car, i was fortunate enough to see and sit in the first one ever build (the one from the geneva motorshow).. amazing
An iconic car you have got to admire the legendary sound of the car maybe it could be making its spot in the collection in future hopefully.
That would be the dream! In the UK they cost around £600-700k; possibly undervalued but certainly already very expensive.
loved the sound of those
This was the pinnacle of the automobile.
Salamondrin's cgt is for sale at ilusso for 675k.
1 of your best Tim. Thank You👍🇦🇺
Well done,, Tim - Captured the experience I have whenever I drive one of mine :))
Every time when I look at this car, I remember "need for speed most wanted"
That was my favourite t👀, in NFSMW.
Greatest supercar ever made!
Love this car 🔊 sounds lovely 😍
One of the best sounding car imo
It has the best sound ever
Love the car sounds like you had a great day. Great thumbs up.
Damn I remember now this place with the showroom
OMG that was 7 years ago
Fuuu time flies when you're having fun
#shquad
I’ve never stalled a Carrera GT either. Ive never driven one, but that’s not the point...
Wont stop dont you? But that is what we love about you! Keep it up with the awesome content shmee!
Plz wish me luck for my BOARD exams..... Love your videos bro....your videos gives me a lot of relaxation
Lmao same here. ATB . I have Social Science nxt Friday
Good luck to both of you guys with your exams

Cant blame him tho
