Troundeus video. Absoltly stunning car. One of the beste Porsches ever made. Perfectly captured in this video. So sorry that this channel is underrated

[chrischarman]

What a classy, thoughtful and respectful video. I physically ache whenever I see this car. The most beautiful physical iteration of motoring - ever. Much as I love my E Type I would love this more, perhaps the heartache comes from knowing I’ll never be able to afford one…..

My childhood dream car! Now I’m in my 60’s and I’m still dreaming

Beautiful. The first generation Boxster, especially in silver, always had a neo-550 vibe.

I love the spyder, incredibly well shot. I cannot wait for this channel to explode

[simmersonwheels]

Sadly no chance I’ll ever get to drive a 550- but thanks to your beautiful video I can at least have an idea of what it’s like……. Thanks.

It's a true gift to drive one of these cars. I drove a beck reproduction and fell in love.

Beautiful car. Will be a wonderful acquisition for someone.

[suhaibaz]

the best (together with jag e type). you still can find e type in the market but man, this 550 spyder is tough. probably replica would be the closest i can get

[ShinyHall]

James Dean died in one of these cars. It’s legendary

[simeonorive]

I am a Tifossi but if you gave me a choice of a 550 and a 908 or a 250 LM Ferrari? ahh im still taking the LM but wow such a beautiful perfect little thing.

[dinorossi]

Wait, is that one of the original Spyders ?

[philrazzi]

Great video guys. But You know that car is NOT a real one right? I have been researching 550s since 1983. This is a great recreation/tribute car. It is running a VW motor. It has what looks like a Beck frame. Looks like proper tires for the era. I think you have been fooled. I can send you 1000s of photos of real ones and fake ones and you decide. Or you can prove me wrong and make another video showing the engine, the interior and the numbers from the frame and the engine. All in one take. :)

Well function and purpose isn't so far apart

In Germany...auto bond is what this car was designed to do....speed in controlled grounds no surprises...

Doesn't an exact copy cost like $50, 000 usd? I don't see anyone buying it to actually drive it that would be a waste of money to buy something that's going to sit in museum or a garage. It's probably going to sell for between $5-8 million dollars
