I think that's the car that he bought off BaT not too long ago (auction ended but I think he made a deal). https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1988- ... 928-s4-72/

Out here in the perimeter we is stoned, immaculate.

what I find odd is that the 944 prices dramatically started to climb before 928 prices.

Just watched it while eating lunch earlier today.

Seems the owner sold it to buy a 944 Turbo!

Nice car from the little he showed of it during the video.

I think the "turbo" craze has added to the recent 944 appeal.

According to this video, 928s are owned by cheap, weird people.

I just don't get being a social media influencer, and they get paid too, once they reach a certain level. Amazing, making a career out of, essentially, nothing.

Not necessarily nothing, it’s just like it was an independent broadcast TV station, managed, produced by, and starring, one person. The “influencing” is just selling ad time.

What's interesting about him and a few others is that they also created the careers of others around them as well. So the "Wizard" also has his own channel and some of his other friends too.

I wouldn't necessarily say they do nothing because some do offer pretty good content. In fact I find myself watching YouTube more now than I do regular TV. I can select exactly what I want and not have to wait for something to be scheduled for viewing.

Interesting times we live in for sure!

I can't stand to watch videos of people working on 928s. I generally want to throw my 3-pound sledge at the screen within a few minutes.

And that gets expensive.
