I think the S15 might give it a run for its money, but they never officially made it to the US, so there's that somewhat expensive problem. I just checked and a fairly clean Spec-R S15 goes for over $40k right now through an import agency, so I guess that's another car I'm never meant to own.

This west coast video is the best video Everyday Driver has done since Pilgrimage. The sense of adventure was beautifully captured and allowed the viewer to feel like they were along for the ride. The scenic shots were cinematic quality. The long format piece suits your storytelling style and lets us share in your natural humor (plus the occasional breaking into song). There’s an honesty to this video that is such a refreshing contrast to the usual click bait content made by others. The underlying theme of using a car (even a modern classic) for its intended purpose is a timely reminder during a period of escalating vehicle values and an important rebuttal to the misguided urge to stow away our prized possessions. Enjoyment doesn’t come from simply possessing an object, it comes from using that object for its intended purpose. You both have succeeded at doing that here. Looking forward to the next part of this 4 Points series. Thank you for making such original and engaging content.

@VirtualGuth Totally understand your statement but so hoping that you're wrong. Studies show that there's enough fossil fuel to supply the world for the next 500+ years, even at current consumption. Electric vehicles are soulless, like driving a toaster and not without their own set of issues. But until then, we'll continue to enjoy our vehicles as they were meant to be. Hoping that you get all of the pleasure out of yours!

@@patsfan8057 I've been making similar observations in car-related discussion for a little while now. Trust me, it's not that I want to be right in what I say. I'm simply stating what I truly think is the inevitable after doing quite a bit of reading on the subject and talking with a lot of folks, including a lot of people younger than myself, most of which are not car enthusiasts. I have no love for EV's and I don't believe that they'll be the long-term answer to the world's environmental problems (which I do not discount despite having long enjoyed ICE-based vehicles of all different sorts). But it seems clear to me that this is what auto makers have all gotten behind as the next big wave of sustaining their companies in addition to the governments pushing for such change. I responded to your comment because I can understand how you feel. I bought a low-mileage Honda S2000 years ago - not as an investment (car prices were still far from going crazy at the time), but because it was the one car I most wanted to enjoy. My plan was to able to enjoy it for as long as possible, therefore the low-mileage choice. Now I see prices on the rise and I don't enjoy any reluctance that I might feel to drive the car as a result. When all is said and done, I believe that there are going to be a lot of people kicking themselves for not enjoying the cars they so coveted while they still could. I don't want to be among them. There are other ways to grow money besides parking a car and only ever taking it to cars & coffee type events. I'm going to do my best to keep enjoying my ride as was intended and I wish you luck doing the same. Thanks for the conversation.

@@VirtualGuth Yes, so true. There are things going on that are taking our ability to enjoy our cars out of our control, slowly but surely. Wow, S 2000? Always liked those 😊 but I'm a child of the 50s, grew up with muscle cars and hot rods so I drive a Mustang. And totally agree with your observations about using them as intended and not sitting in a hermetically sealed garage waiting for the next bump in value. Those people aren't enthusiasts, just speculators, might as well buy stocks. For the rest of us, you can't take it with you so enjoy it while you can! Cheers!

Taking your own car on a road trip, I wholeheartedly agree. Buying a car that I love and that is fun to drive.. I don't want to look back on it and say "It got me to work every day". After realizing that, we've been packing it for week long road trips, and it's been great. I don't regret putting a few extra thousand miles on it at all. Those are the good miles. Those are the memories with the car.

I went with my wife a few years back, started in SF and spent 12 days driving to Seattle. We dipped down to Big Sur to start, spent a couple nights in SF a couple in Portland and a couple in Seattle. We went some other spots too, Bend, Crater Lake, Multnomah Falls etc. Went down some coastal dirt roads - off one there was Salmon running up a river and seals catching them. Excellent trip, was in September so thr days were still long and weather nice. Drove through the big Redwood tree. Lots to do on that road trip, 4 days is not nearly enough, even 12 days felt rushed.

Great video and what an amazing drive. Last summer you guys inspired me to take a family road trip from Texas to your neck of the woods. We saw some amazing sites and lots of memories. Oh yeah, and we took our '95 Volvo 850 wagon with over 500K miles and had zero issues. My family wants to go East this year. I can't wait! I'm a big fan, a meet and greet in the Austin area would be great when you guys come to Texas

Always love watching the videos on this channel, this video has got to be one of the best yet. Please, anytime you guys make a road trip always consider filming it. People need to see the beautiful scenery and get a sense of the experiences drives like these give can give to the soul. For those who are not fortunate enough to enjoy adventures of their own, the alternative is thru 2 cool guys that just drive real "everyday" sports cars. Keep up the great content!

Another thing I wanted to add, one of the reasons I've enjoyed this channel so much is how you guys are so relatable. Another one I really loved was the video where Todd took his son on a trip in his Elise, it really made me want to do something exactly like it when my son gets a little older.

I live in Southern California and have a 370Z. Was a truck driver and been far north in Washington to a paper mill in Port Townsend so I've been through the weather coming and going. Such a beautiful part of our country many will never see. Going to make that trip one day like you guys did. Nice video and keep up the good work!

Thanks so very much for taking the effort to create this master piece along the California highway 1 . I traveled this road w my wife some years ago. The memories i have on this lovely coastal road is nothing but a bunch happy events . Their was this lovely couple who ran a road side restaurant along the northern border near Oregon, I never forget how kind they were to us travelers . I pray they are still there to greet all the travelers. We are living in east coast now n hope to travel there again soon thanks to your wonderful clips .

This was awesome. I have an 88 928 S4 and took it on a just a 250 mile round trip to see my sister. Before I left the gas cap stuck which had never happened. Then I told my sister its been fun but i want to get on the road before it gets dark and cold..because its an old car. She was intrigued with my pop up headlights and wanted to see them. Sure enough, I didnt have low beams but thank goodness for the Porsche Gods...I had high beams.

I took this path going from Bakersfield, CA to Seattle, WA. I went coastal because I5 was covered in ice and snow, and all of Southern Oregon lost power, so going to any coffee shop or gas station was out. But I was able to hit Bandon Dunes to golf. Did this in an Acura Integra GS-R. Had to cut in once I crossed back into Washington, but there were cool roads that took me back to I5 and back to Seattle. This is such a cool roadtrip.

I used to daily my 928 through LA traffic, 218k miles and all. Hands down it's one of the greatest road trip cars you can afford. The scenery is gorgeous in this video, much more so than driving the 101 from LA to SF.

My wife and I did pretty much the opposite drive. From Vancouver Island, BC, Canada (through Seattle) to San Francisco. We did it in our 1993 Mitsubishi Delica L300 Super Exceed. Not what you would call a "driver's car", but a perfect car for a road trip.
