I Bought The CHEAPEST Porsche 997 911 On Earth!

Показать описание

Brad and Trav wanted to get their hands on the benchmark of sports cars, a Porsche 911. The 997 variant seemed out of their budget, but with a ton of sweat and a little hustle, they were able to bring home a 2006 997 911 with a bad clutch, but some hidden gems.

To get the Porsche road worthy again, they replace the clutch because it's extremely difficult to push down. They also service the car which includes changing the spark plugs. Next up was the green stripe, which initially they were going to get rid of, but after a little research found out it was the 911R stripe, and were able to source one for the other side.

After a couple more enhancements, this car was ready to go!

The one guy did all the work and the main guy was like "yo check out these stickers bro"

The ring stickers are put on after a lap, not by mailorder...

Hard pass on the matching green stripe, guys. That's where I would have put the record scratch effect if i were editing this, but other than that, I dig it. Thanks for making this!

Ok. So how much did you pay for the Porsche? I watched the whole video and you didn't say. Or was it a straight trade for the M3? If so, how much was he asking for the 997 and how much did you have in the M3 or what was the market value for the M3 if so? Kinda weird to have a video titled the cheapest 997, then not mention how much.

Longtime Porsche fan, I enjoyed the combination of entertainment and hands on information. The enthusiasm might just send me back to the garage to my long delayed project. Keep up Ideal Cars

Plastidip on exhaust will last about two days.

You missed the measurements on the stripe! Off by at least 1/4 inch.

I love the 911 997! You guys didn't go out and get a crappy 996 and then say " We just bought an abandoned 911" . Well done! Please keep the car.

OF course is nice to have a Porsche when you have a friend that can fix it for you and not get rip off from the dealership

great job.
BTW, I love the plain "911" emblem on the rear.

If someone turned up at night with a baseball cap on backwards to buy my Porsche I wouldn't answer the door.

When installing spark plugs, always use anti-seize. Steel spark plugs in aluminum heads, or any alloy head will cause galling and electrolysis (dissimilar metals tend to eat/or degrade one another you might find pitting or a white powder when this has happened.). I think, the engine is supposed to be warm when removing spark plugs. Ford has a problem with spark plugs pulling the thread out of the head with the plug, ruining the heads completely.
If you have a water cooled Porsche, check into a anode attached to the radiator cap. That also helps to defeat electrolysis going on throughout your cooling system.

I got 911sc and I haven't regreted a single bit. It put a smile on my face every time. And let me tell shifting through a 915 transmission is require patience😁
