  1. My fav type of therapy as well. Swiss Alps or Black Forest, GT4, Sunrise. I'm feeling much better every time afterwards.

  2. Excellent. Just started enjoying a little afternoon cake and then there is a new Tedward classic car video! And even such an amazing car!
    127
  3. It would still be a huge car in Switzerland - so yes, a truck 🤣
    84
  4. Sensational! What a stunning car. Then again, it's a silver Porsche 🤤
    30
  5. I don't see why not. This is a nice spec indeed. I'd get GT Silver with PDK though.
    25
  6. That is just lovely. These have aged soo well!

  7.  @TedwardDrives  I never take it for granted that I have these roads available. But as you say in the video, a GT4 is fun everywhere.

  8. I hope this comes to Europe. Love it!

  9. I don't see that happening. It would need at least two things (apart from a good highway itself): 1) better driver training and 2) proper rules. That pass on the right thing the US has would be the first to go. Same with removing every shitbox car from the road. But forcing rules on the "land of the free". Good luck.   In Switzerland we would have perfect roads, a very high standard in driver training and proper rules. Yet we don't have high speed limits. As they are considered too dangerous. Doesn't really matter as the time you gain driving at a higher speed (if there is no traffic!), you'd loose again at the fuel station 🤣

  10. That armrest moment had me laughing hard 🤣
    14
  11. Oh look at that, a good road! 🥳😉 Great stuff and I completely agree with your mindset on these drives!

  12. Great video! This brings back memories. I can see your point. Having owned a 981 GTS for four years as a daily and then got a 718 GT4, the GTS is definitely closer to the sweet spot for the road (around 300hp in my opinion). I specced my cars almost identical. Both had buckets, PCCB, LSD and the GTS was on X73 suspension (the car in the video is on regular PASM, 1cm higher than X73). Buckets are great even as a daily 😉 The biggest difference in usability is actually the front overhang. GT4 is 2cm lower than the car you had and the splitter sticks out more. That makes it very annoying! But otherwise, usability is similar. Both great road trippers in the alps! Apart from clearing French speed bumps. But I still wouldn't want to daily the GT4. So the GTS provides more fun more of the time. The GT4 however is more a car for special moments in my opinion. As for the LSD, that is also not stock on the GTS. You have to order PTV to get it.

  13. The definition of poster car! Thanks for making the offseason a bit shorter with this video!
    7
  14. My fav type of your videos. POV in this car!
    7
  15. Piuma was also my first road in the Malibu region. Oh man, brings back so many great memories! Really enjoyed this video!

  16. A night drive towards a sunrise on a mountain is quite meditating. Love it!
    6
  17. It already had one of those passenger side infotainment systems 🤣
    6
  18. Congrats! 👏🏻
    5
  19. What a car!
    5
  20. Still the best RS4. Nowadays they are quite rare but just as lovely as ever. Peak Audi in my opinion.
    5
  21. Just like that, based on what I can see in the video. But with PDK and in GT Silver. That would mirror my 981 GTS Spec. Kinda my Go To Porsche Options. And yes of course. I daily drive my car in the Swiss Winter as well. Apart from Ground Clearance in heavy snow, no issues at all.
    5
  22. This is a great substitute for not having winter tyres on my sports car anymore. I can enjoy the fun and struggle by watching your video 🤣

  23. As for the fuel filler location, that little triangle/arrow next to the little fuel pump icon on your dash always points to the side where the filler is 🤓

  24. I have so many great memories from the G Class and Puchs from my military days. One of my favorite cars. It's so sad to see how Mercedes is marketing it. From a proper utility vehicle to an embarrassing AMG poser mobile. I'd still take a non AMG G500 or a Diesel but the image that comes with this car is very bad because they are going after the wrong customers sadly. A victim of its own success I guess.

  25. Carving mountain roads in Switzerland? 👋🏻

  26. Those seats 🤦🏻‍♂️
    3
  27. Absolutely wonderful! Stunning car!

  28. This was probably the first victim of the Euro emission regulations. Many other proper fun cars to follow. No new BRZ, no new Z. All selling so little that all the complexity to meet the regulations is not worth it. Only boring hot hatches will probably remain. And hopefully the MX-5!

  29.  @TedwardDrives  OK. I haven't seen a modern car that wasn't like that but maybe it's different in some countries. Also, I nodded at the Swiss commuter remark you made 😅

  30. My Grandpa's doc had one of these. In Switzerland 😆

  31. I heard something about switchbacks and passes in Switzerland 🙋🏻‍♂️ Enjoy your time in California!

  32. What a place to be and enjoy a drive! Simply beautiful!
    3
  33. Excellent color but I'm biased 🤓
    3
  34. I just love these videos of the classic cars! Thanks for making them!
    3
  35. What a way to start the weekend... watching you drive another classic!
    2
  36. Very nicely presented! I really enjoyed that walk-around!
    2
  37.  @m4d_al3x  No it's not coming to Europe.
    2
  38. I also always like it when a big crane comes the other way. What a toy would that be to play with!
    2
  39. Good roads make such a difference. Adds so much to the videos!
    2
  40. Love ACH. Very enjoyable video again!

  41. Very similar to my setup surprisingly. Although I have to say that the Hero 8 sound is not bad at all. I will probably replace my binaural setup with it to keep things simple as I don't run professional production like you.  You can still use the head band if you take care of the angle. It's just that most people just put it on and drive. Then they are filming the headliner...
    2
  42.  @TedwardDrives  Well there is enough music coming from the rear anyway 😉
    2
  43. Wiper washer fluid. I once ran out late at night on a Sunday. Windscreen full of salt. Every gas station was closed and the water they had to clean the windows was frozen. It was not fun to use some road side snow to clean the windscreen 🤣
    2
  44. Oh wow! It being not perfect makes it even better I think.
    2
  45.  @TedwardDrives  Then better mute my stories starting from June when the season starts 😅 On the other hand, all those classic cars you get to drive... 🤤
    2
  46. Another wonderful drive along! I just have a thing for mid-engined Porsches 😉
    2
  47. Only one thing is certain: those commenters don't own a Type R let alone a Ferrari. Classic 🤡s.
    2
  48. That road is on my list. Great video!
    2
  49. That didn't take long then 🤣
    2
  50.  @TedwardDrives  That is very nice. I hope right when you said "this is for someone who wants to drive" 😉
    2
  51.  @MegaEssin  I read the California rule book before I went there for my holiday. It is mentioned but honestly, that rule book looks like it was written by a 12 year old. You can't take it seriously.
    2
  52. Not sure what's worse, the upshift farts or the strange blinker noise 🙈
    2
  53. Incredible how a set of newly designed taillights can ruin an entire model.
    2
  54. Congratulations! This is such a great car! Enjoy it!

  55. This is properly specced up for doing what a Defender is meant to do. No Mafia Spec Beverly Hill version.

  56. Not sure if feeling the car again is a great idea with such horrible road conditions 🙈
    1
  57. Just excellent! 👏🏻

  58. The drive along the lake in the end was very nice! Also, new BMWs would increase the volume if you'd open the sunroof like that 😅
    1
  59. Had PS4S on the 981 GTS. I always liked how good they performed in the wet and also in the cold, like around freezing on a mountain road towards the end of the season. Never used them in the snow. Even on my daily Fiesta I change to proper Winters in October, weeks before the first snow.

  60. Fingering the floor mats. Kinky stuff mate 🤣

  61. Horrible driving by that guy in the Kia.
    1
  62. Pretending to drive in the Alps? 😉
    1
  63.  @TedwardDrives  No no. The problem with my roads is that they are closed for 8 months each year 🤷🏻‍♂️

  64. The teaching point is very valid. In Switzerland, it used to be that you weren't allowed to drive a manual car if you did your licence with an automatic car. So that's why almost everyone took the manual car license and is able to operate such a car. But a short while ago, they changed the law and it's now possible to drive a manual car even with an automatic license.  Because they assume that very few cars will be available with a manual in the future (EVs etc) and that this old license system is no longer needed.  Of course this also means that the amount of people actually knowing how to use a manual will get smaller...

  65. The design is not my thing at all. I much prefer the Taycan. On the other hand, this one has buttons!
    1
  66. Fully agree with the last bit about traveling and memories. The people you meet at 4AM on a mountain are almost always good and are there for the same reason. As there are no parking lots, no coffee, no scene.
    1
  67.  @TedwardDrives  What you could do is simply go to bed later. At some point there will be a sunrise 😅
    1
  68.  @TuddecBMW  Unfortunately, too many idiots started posting videos from that region but with horrible driving style. Too risky to keep mine up as our "race control" started looking around online.

  69. I was just about to comment about the Turtles shirt and then you pointed it out 🤣

  70. Welcome back!
    1
  71. Just spectacular! Thanks for sharing!

  72. Great to see the M5!
    1
  73. I love the 981 GTS. Boxster or Cayman, doesn't matter. But I prefer the PDK.
    1
  74. Those seats look kinda out of place 😅
    1
  75. I'm not really into these performance EVs in power-limo or SUV form. But city cars like the Honda e, ID.3 or even the Renault 5 are much more interesting. Those will make an actual impact. And hopefully will allow real, oldschool sportscars to exist in the future.

  76. Wonderful! That car and the lovely fall colors - perfect!

  77. No driving this morning. So a cupcake, a juice and this video it is!
    1
  78. Great job on the channel and your content! I like a good night drive as well. Especially when it starts at 4AM and ends with a sunrise on a mountain pass at 6AM.

  79.  @TedwardDrives  It's quite a seasonal affair 🙈😆

  80. Very wise words there!
    1
  81. What a lovely place to be and a great view forward!
    1
  82. Rumor has it that the next one might get the GT4 engine. Might make it the best 911 even though it's still way too big.
    1
  83.  @TedwardDrives  I‘d be happy to show you around! ✌🏻

  84. 17 Mile Drive vibes!

  85. These is nothing charming about the US impact bumpers 😆

  86. GSA, being able to drive a manual car (in Switzerland) is actually nothing special. There are two licenses, one for manual cars and one for auto cars. Pretty much everyone gets the manual license so that they are allowed to drive both types of transmissions. And in Switzerland you don't get your license after 5min driving around the block. It's a proper driver education. Everyone passing knows how to drive a manual car. As for myself, I haven't driven a manual car in many years but I'd say that I'd get back in the groove after a a short while.

  87. Anthony, I would daily drive it. And I don't want to do that with a manual gearbox. It's the reason I cancelled my GT4 pre-order and got a GTS with PDK. But I'm happy to see Porsche finally offering both gearbox choices. So everyone can spec it how they want.
    1
  88. Do you use your Porsche for daily commutes? I'd get annoyed by the clutch operation in heavy traffic and city driving. That's why I prefer PDK so that I can enjoy my car every single day, all the time and not just on a Sunday blast. Good on you if you drive it every day. It just wouldn't be for me.

  89. What a dream!

  90. It's barely run in... Typical RS car I'd say. Crazy color, massive wing. Ideal for posing in the city or cars and coffees 🤦🏻‍♂️
    1
  91.  @TedwardDrives  Our Military Puchs were almost like that. Two doors, open top with bench side seats. Very slow but very capable! Night and day difference compared to the new one. But way cooler than any AMG one!
    1
  92. Probably only doable with those low US fuel prices 🤣
    1
  93. What a great opportunity! Amazing! As for the car... Is it limited by production or demand? 😂
    1
  94. Most Lotus Cars are 1 of very few. Special Edition or not. They don't sell that well 😅
    1
  95. Coming home from a morning drive to watch a video of yours and enjoy a croissant. That's always nice!
    1
  96. If the roads would be as perfectly white as this, I'd get winters again immediately. But with all the salt and stones, I'll skip on that and wait until the roads are clean again.
    1
  97. Classy and very tasty!
    1
  98. Tedward sound great! Can’t wait 😉
    1
  99. The Velcro seats had me laughing 🤣 Beautiful fall colors too!
    1
  100. Ah this is excellent! Alpine-like roads and the perfect car for it!
    1
  101. Excellent stuff! The last tasteful Lambo. Great video!
    1
  102. You can go anywhere! Except a parking garage 🤦🏻‍♂️

  103. Drove a 992 C4S a couple of years ago on some narrow, twisty Swiss roads and I did find it boring. The car was well specced with all the important driving options but still. It masks its width incredibly well but it's still something you have to think about when attacking a corner. The acceleration gets old quickly and then there is not much going for it in the long run. Great daily though.
    1
  104. Good thing that there was not a lot of traffic. Just before Christmas I had to take another route to work to avoid a small hill as well. Would suck to get stuck during City Rush Hour.
    1
  105. What a fun video. But dude, the hair is getting out of control 🤣
    1
  106. The problem aren't the real celebrities. The problem this car brought up are the wannabe celebrities and posers. Regardless of how amazing a G400d is, the image those 🤡 bring with them, ruin the G Class.
    1
  107. Friday, the day to avoid in that case.
    1
  108. Just returned from a nice morning drive in the Swiss hills. Now enjoying this video with a nice 🍫🥐 Couldn't be better!
    1
  109. I like the new intro style! Great job!
    1
  110. Congrats on the new camera, what a beast!
    1
  111. Congrats and enjoy it to the fullest! I'm so glad that they finally got away with the boy racer looks. This is not really spot on!
    1
  112. Looks amazing in the snow!
    1
  113. Out of all those high performance SUVs, this is the one I see the least. So I'm not sure how much money it's actually bringing in.
    1
  114.  @TedwardDrives  oh well, I guess that's all that matters these days.
    1
  115. Open top, I would go with GTS 4.0. Otherwise I completely agree. But I am slightly biased. Great video. Really enjoyed it!
