Default 997 GT2....Great Video

Sorry if it's a repost...but I came across this video created by Porsche regarding the 997 GT2...an amazing car! Video's like this make me even more proud of my 993!

awesome. Well made. It shows how a "race car" can be as civilized as a daily driver also. I hate videos like this - make me want to own one or more like wish I could.

That is the gayest video I have ever seen.

Instead of using fast forward and slow motion camera work, why don't they dispense with the overproduced bull**** and just show an 8 minute video of Walter putting on his helmet, lapping the Nordschleife, getting out, and giving a thumbs up to the camera guy.

I can only imagine the pencil neck geeks who came up with this video idea and thought it was cool. What a joke. Why is it that every time I see, hear, or read a Porsche advertisement, it looks like the ad was targeted at car-ignorant 35 year old women? Can we just have a man's car, without the fake drama and marketing crap? I guess not.
