"It's got a turbo engine" and "sounds like a boat running." Damn, that guy has chops!

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

"It's got a turbo engine" and "sounds like a boat running." Damn, that guy has chops!
*edit* Holy crap, he really did say "deer-skin headliner"
I didn't realize the C4S was $150K new. I should have been better to KrazyK.
Here’s the non-mobile version of the link;
2002 Porsche Carrera 4 S - What's Your Pastime? - YouTube
Yeah, he even says “you can feel the turbo” or something to that effect. What a goof...
WOW! I'm going out right now to check out the Turbo on my C4S! "you can feel the turbo boost..." "Wooo"! Really!? Guess he has never driven a European sports car before. I love how he pronounces Porsche "Porsch". Is he a Car dealer?
^thanks for link!
Hes probably the owners son and they needed something to keep him busy.
"Hey what should we do with him?"
"I don't know he dosnt know anything about cars and he won't tuck his shirt in"
"I know let's let him film cars and do reviews and tell him he'll be a star"
"Ok let's let him start with that c4s and tell him it's got genuine deer skin interior"
Yeah "he can really feel that four wheel drive..." Very perceptive to feel 5% front wheel drive the way he was driving.
5CHN3LL: Would have been pretty funny to watch him swap ends after stepping off throttle! "Wooooo!"
The deer skin headliner must be around a $50k option. I wonder if I get that for my Cab? Or was it only available on the C4s Turbo?

No ceramic brakes in 2002.
He should have learned how to operate the radio BEFORE driving the car!
Maybe it IS 150,000 Canadian dollars!
What a goober!
It is guys like this that give used car dealerships an even worse reputation than they already have.
They are trying to appeal and sell to the uninformed and gullible, and unfortunately there are many that fall prey.
But this guy......I don't know who would believe everything he is claiming.....deerskin??
I know there are reputable dealers out there and some are even knowledgeable about the product they sell, but it's rare.
This gem went unnoticed for years. Love to meet the guy who ended up buying the turbo with deer skin, ceramic rotors and be there when he gets shut down by a seasoned owner.
Oddly, I'm more willing to overlook any problems with Rachel's narration - despite the F1-inspired transmission and the telescopic steering wheel, it wasn't so hard to watch.
I took my car to work yesterday, waiting for the Turbo to kick in, no luck
I guess it was a hidden secret from C4 owners.
Wooo, woooo

You guys are qibbling about the technical specs of the brakes. The important part, which he got right, is that they stop the car "just like that". Sounds pretty accurate to me.
Unbelieveable. He can be reached at
pastimemotors.com
. Everyone should send him an email letting him know how much we enjoyed his knowledgeable and informative "Porch" video.
Edit: I see this is pretty old.
He was ahead of his time.....giving stealerships the worst rep and if those sunglasses and music didn't give it away well maybe his WHOOOOS HOOOS as the end will....
If their goal was to get the video circulated + provide some entertainment, they did a great job. Not too great from an accuracy standpoint though - but that is part of the charm.
