I saw it this afternoon. I like the underlying concept, but the choice of actors makes you wonder: Do only white people drive Porsches (and black kids get to ride when they have a white friend?)

Thanks for sharing. I hadn't subscribed to the Porsche channel on YouTube - somehow missed it. Now I have. I enjoyed the 904 video - it was my first Porsche - as a kid. It was 1/24th scale.

ha ha ha, I gave a guy's wife a ride around our autocross course. She laughed hysterically when I was accelerating, and screamed bloody murder under braking and in the turns. After the first turn and the blood curdling screams I asked if she wanted me to slow down, she yelled..."Oh heII no! I will never do this again."
