This guy knows how to have a good time

The Quality of Cutting/Filmmaking and Storytelling is Unreal for just 4000 subscribers. Keep it Up !

For the last 13 years I have driven my 911 4S (daily driver) a few times a year to Northern Canada. Conditions can get very challenging (-40C, with whiteouts and lots of snow and ice on the roads). With proper tires (don't use the often suggested Pirellis ...), the stock car is capable of getting us there year after year, even in the worst of storms. What a great car ... giving us unforgettable experiences week after week, year after year, and hopefully decade after decade. :)

Nice seeing a 911 stuck in the snow and being used properly! Good work, Alex.

Love it, as a Colorado native there is nothing better than a 911 with skis mounted on the rack and winding mountain roads…on a practical note I also love my land Cruiser….great content!

As a previous owner of a C4S for many years I have to say it’s a great car. I don’t even mind the funny headlights. The 4 wheel drive adds some safety and the wide body shape is beautiful. Certainly a future classic.

This guy is so well-spoken and this is so well-made! Sounds like the intensity of a former military guy who tapped into drugs after he served 😂

I really enjoyed this video Alex! (I have the exact same car - interior and exterior.) You provided a VERY honest review of the car in snow, especially with the discussion of the primitive viscous AWD system and not being afraid of showing it getting stuck in deep/slippery snow. More 996 and cross-country touring videos please!

I bought a 2004 C4S for all the same reasons. I drive it only in the winter and it's great!

These cars are engineered in Germany through some of the most toughest winter conditions, this video is amazing for showing just that and not just another track day. This car was built for this very thing, to be driven daily.

those black wheels totally transformed the look of that silver 996. looks awesome

Fantastic! Love the car and the filmmaking (and miss Colorado)!

Simply awesome. Two heroes : you and the 996 4CS 👍

Fantastic video, and what's better, that is a high mileage 996 being driven very hard, in very hard conditions. The countless hours of engineering and testing is very evident in Porsche's engineering .... Brilliant!!!!

Sweet video Glen! I Worked for Porsche for 20yrs and I always have a soft spot for 996C4S. Love that 3/4 rear end view still cool AF.

I drove a hardtop Boxster through one Midwest Winter. When I sold it and bought my 964 C4, the seller had snow tires on the 964, and didn't hesitate to use it in the winter. Drove the 964 through one blizzard and it wasn't phased.

this brings a huge smile to my face. Looking forward to one day owning a 911 C4S and recreating an adventure like this. great video.

Best salesman pitch ever: “Everything that makes the 996 terrible is what makes it so fantastic”. Haha. Love it.

This is rad. Best snow car I ever had was a Civic EK Hatch with adjustable coil overs (that I'd lift in the winter 😆) and some 15" steelies. Small front or AWD cars with a manual (and a bit of skill) will pull ya 95% of where you need to go.

This is way better than the videos that come from all the KZfaqrs in KS. Great job!

Consider yourself lucky that the Million Dollar Highway from Ouray to Durango was closed. It is absolutely terrifying in the winter.

this video screams quality - one of the best that i ever watched

wow this channel needs more recognition

Epic trip and great job editing. I feel like a lot of youtubers would have turned this into a minimum 45 minute video and would have lost a lot of engagement because of it. Subscribed

You have a real passion in your voice when you talk about Porsches 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

So happy like a kid

Loved this video. BRB going to buy a 996 c4s

Thankful your channel popped up in my feed. Cool content 👏

Porsche 996 is probably one of the most beautiful cars in the world!

Love this! I drive a 2002 C4S all winter. They are great until you hit a deer on your way into Telluride, then you wish you were in a truck...

Awesome video!

So cool! I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Need more with the 996!

Epic video. Im considering buying a 996 to be my year round daily and I'm glad to see someone having fun with their 996 in the snow

996 wow 😊 thanks I enjoyable to watch

LOVE THIS! Great stuff, Alex!

drove a slammed mk6 gti year round, going to the mountains and telluride all the time. car works great passing all the suv’s. this porsche is such a fun way to experience those roads and actually have fun.

996 is a fantastic platform.

Keep up the great videos!

I've spoken with Alex before, stand-up guy and enthusiast. Definitely buy with confidence from Glen Shelly, I missed out on an E46 M3 a few years ago that I still kick myself about. Winter tires are must out there, make all the difference.

Looked fun and I love the inclusion of the importance of chocolate as an element

Ok this is an amazing video. Perfect mix of car content and almost a travel type vlog. Just subscribed!

Thanks for the nostalgic look back. I've had 2 996 C4's , one used as a year round daily driver up here in snowy NH. With winter tires, nothing more fun than turning TSC off and doin four wheel "burnouts!"

I never comment on KZfaq videos but i just had on this one. Amazing production value guys! Great job in the storyteling. All in all, a great video!

Great stuff, Glen Shelly team!

10/10 vid! On the search for a c4s now instead of an xdrive wagon!

Such an incredible build for such incredible conditions to drive this car in. What an absolute pleasure to witness this Porsche drive in such difficult but gorgeous conditions.

I passed through Steamboat in a snowstorm and it was good enough on a stock setup but BARELY lol Cool video. That looks fun. Great job filming 👏🏼

Well done Alex and Jeremy 👏

Any 911 in the snow is sweeeeeeet.

This is what I’d do if I had a 996, and what I’ll do when I eventually get one. I drove through the worst winter storm in Colorado this year from Denver back to Kansas in my 2000 volvo V70 so I know how treacherous the conditions can be. I’m honestly surprised my car could make it through at all, and I’m sure the 996 would be more fun because it isn’t a heavy FWD station wagon lol

Love the channel. Love these challenge videos would love to see more 👍

Ugh now I want one! Really well made video! Enjoyed every second!

Hey! I recognize that hangar… holds all the cars I just about being myself to buy!! Excellent vid. New sub.

Nothing wrong with the headlamps, 996.1 or 996.2.

"...being in here, it's like being inside a Kangaroo's pouch"🤣

A sports car in snow can be fun... it's the road salt that I don't want to expose my 911 to.

This is epic well done guys!

Wow, love this car! I live in northern NV near Lake Tahoe and this car would be a perfect all season fun car for up here. I would still keep my Jeep though. The reason people drive SUV's is because they have real four wheel drive, they have more ground clearance so you're not plowing in deep snow, they have way more interior room and the cost of ownership is way lower. No IMS, RMS, AOS, bore scoring, and other catastrophic failures. Can't beat a Porsche for driving fun though. Great video but too quick jumping from one scene to another for these old eyes to keep up. Would have liked to see more detail on adding the rack and other stuff. How did you run the CB antenna cable into the car?

All four elements 🌎🌬️🌊🔥 in the c4 911😊

Great video Alex. Now you meed to do the same in a C2S. Show the world that a proper 911 with rwd can also handle the snow…

I drove a similar C4S for 11 years on daily basis (not in the snow though) and goch he is right , such a versatile car ❤

this. is. amazing. makes me want to make my turbo a 'safari'

not a car guy let alone a sports car guy, but gotta admit this sounds like an enjoyable ride.

Man I wish I was as cool as this guy he’s a beast

How soon we forget that these cars were manufactured in Germany, where the weather can get… not so good. Great video!

As always, looks like a blast and - you make the production look so easy! Keep serving us content 🤘

You don’t need an suv or awd/4wd. Good snow tires is far and away the most important. There’s a dude in Buffalo who drives a 2011 1 series M in the winter….and all he has is Blizzaks and he gets around just fine. I asked him why he drives a rare car in brutal winters and he told me he has another one in the garage lol.

Love it! Another killer adventure

Loved watching that. Great Car choice in the C4S and CO is awesome inspiringly beautiful ( used to live in Louisville CO) . Subscribed 🙌

where has this guys channel been all my life!!!?

We all need a cost effective 911 4S Dakar style version. A little lift, perhaps electronic adjustable height suspension, increased approach and departure angled front and rear facia, off road modes, and viola! I could use my '23 Bronco V6 Sasquatch version for the really big heavy stuff, and the 911 for everything else. Hehe!

Colorado in winter and Porsche are two of my favourite things, wait it go to bring them together.

Alex is always entertaining! Good luck with the channel!

Woot!

Awesome video! People can say what they will about the 996 but their owners tend to drive the piss out of them. Cheers!

As a teen ager growing up up in Canada I drove everywhere in a 1964 VW Beetle with studded snow tires. Never got stuck and that was driving it to every ski-hill in the area. 90% of getting around in snow is knowing what you're doing, only 10% is your vehicle's ability.

Very cool trip! The one thing that really would have helped is chains for your tyres. That would allow the AWD to be more effective even though there's not much weight over the front wheels. Frankly, I think the car would really benefit from being raised a bit as the extra suspension travel would allow you to carry some more speed over the rough terrain, but chains would be the cheap and easy fix!

im going to steamboat springs for the first time in 2 weeks and this makes me so hyped for it.

That car is a long way from Dave’s heated garage 😂

This video is exactly what I've been trying to figure out about the 911 all wheel drive. I'm in Syracuse, NY and want a 4 of some kind to daily drive but people always look at me like I'm bonkers when I tell them I plan to drive it in snow. Great video, great walkthrough on the kit and experience. Couldn't mash subscribe fast enough.

I got 991.2 GT3 manual which is one of most amazing cars I know but I still got appetite to get one of 996s as they are bargain less digital cool cars. This video only proof that.

I had snow tires no my Miata and I swear that it was more capable than most of the SUV's on the road. This thing must be a blast!!!!

I still maintain that if they hadn't used the same headlights in the Boxster, nobody would have complained about them. I love the idea of bombing around in the snow with a 996 but I cringe at the thought of salt brine getting jammed in every nook and cranny and then rusting the thing to pieces.

This video made me smile the whole way through!

I really hope to one day own a 996 C4S. It's my attainable dream car. I just hope the values stay depressed long enough for me to get the money together.

nothing beats a set of tire chains for deep snow

This is awesome! I might try to do this someday. I would bring a -20F bag and some survival grear just in case I got stuck.

Excellent video…cinematography is superb! You’re doing what any car guy would love to do! Keep up the awesome work!

Traveling by 911 is just a dream. Great video! My respects 💪🏼

Great video!! Studded snows make a huge difference… Audi would be good, Subarus too.

Missed my 996 4S, but alas it was a victim of bore scoring. Much more enjoyable than my current 996 Turbo before I borescoped the engine.

Dude's living the dream, making me want to sell my car for a 996 again...

i love the 996 c4s

Perfect car. The Turbo is even better. I’ve had mine 8 years

Come to Canada. You’ll see gt3 rs in the snow too. German cars never had problems with snow conditions

Well done. I saw you while you were in Steamboat. Looks like a super fun road trip.

Excellent, fantastic video. You absolutely did the right thing with this beautiful car. I envy you and your road trip👍 cheers from Mallorca

the rack is probably completely impractical but I looooove the look of it. So cool

You should had driven up to the strawberry park hots springs…that gravel road is super fun.

Looks like a great time. Still can’t get past those headlights unfortunately lol
