Top 5 Things I Love About My Air Cooled Porsche 911

Want to learn about the top 5 things I love about my air cooled Porsche 911? Well, you've come to the right place!

I'll go ahead and spoil the surprise. There's very little I don't love about my 86 3.2 and really haven't been able to stop driving it since I bought it.

After putting over 1,000 miles on this 86 Porsche 911, I’ve decided that there are really 5 key things I love about my air cooled 3.2 Carrera. I thought I would capture these things on video and share them with you, the viewer, to give you a sense of what the strong points of owning an air cooled Porsche 911.

I will be doing a driving impression video in the very near future, but for the meantime, watch this video and you’ll learn what my short-term ownership of my air cooled Porsche 911 3.2 Carrera revealed as the top 5 things I enjoy the most about the car.

They include:

1. The interior - the interior of this car screams classic 911. From the moment you get in, you know exactly where you are based on the old school 911 smells, the sounds and the overall interior design. Watch the video to get a sense and a feel of what it’s like to sit in the car. You’ll also find out what 3.2 911 interior design element I find the most interesting.

2. The 915 transmission - there’s something so special about the feeling you get when you shift this gearbox. The vintage feel and the intentionality required to operate the 915 puts the 3.2 Carrera squarely in the category of enthusiast driver car. In the video, I’ll share with you where to find a video specific to what it’s like to shift the 915 gearbox.

3. The specific mods that have been done to my Porsche 911. The previous owner dialed in this 3.2 and really did some tasteful things to it including Bilstein sports suspension, 17” aftermarket fuch clones, momo prototipo steering wheel, Tag Heuer rally timers and Coco-Mats. All of these mods come together to give my 3.2 a super personalized feel.

4. The air cooled Porsche enthusiast community - while not unique to just the 3.2, it does seem that the air cooled Porsche 911 3.2 Carrera has a deep and special following. In the video, I’ll talk about why I feel the air cooled porsche enthusiast community stands out in comparison to other automotive brand enthusiast communities.

5. The iconic exterior design of the g series generation of the Porsche 911 - the headlights, the low slung rear end and the lines of the 3.2 all come together to give create what I feel is one of the most beautiful automotive designs of all time.

Bavarian Enthusiast TV is for the most part an air cooled Porsche channel and a BMW channel. It’s the result of my deep passion for classic german cars, my obsession with modding, improving, buying and selling them and my desire to put myself out there on YouTube and share these passions with other enthusiasts.

As I continue to build this channel, I'll be adding more cars to the mix, and will likely branch out beyond the German sports car genre. Why? Because I LOVE cool collector cars and as my interests morph and change, so will this channel.

As of the date of this video, the collection includes a 1995 Porsche 993 911, a 1986 Porsche 3.2 Carrera, a 1970 BMW 2002, a 1999 BMW M3, a 2018 BMW X5M and....a 1993 Toyota 80 Series Landcruiser (no it’s not German but it’s been a bucket list vehicle for me so it’s now in the collection).
