I got through a bit more as I was interested in the engine sound. Sounded dull. I did like how the reviewer was able to combine a Brooklyn look with his Australian accent. Skull T and Opera house added a unique touch as well.

In all honesty I appreciate any video review on the 991.2. It continues to confirm I made the right choice with my GTS.

I couldn't watch with the constant "Porsh" pronunciation. Why do Brits and Aussies do that?

No not THAT bad. "A" for effort. Content could have been more informative. What I did learn is that I now have a rennlister friend in Sydney who can take me clubin'

Nice review. A little rough around the edges, but also showed me some things about the car I had not seen in other reviews.

He needs longer sleeves, or shorter arms! But its a nice car. I test drove one two days ago. I wouldn't trade my GTS but I appreciate the new car. It has some nice offerings.
