Episode 8 of Porsche Club Insider features the regular crew of Vu, Manny, Damon, and Rob as well as special guest John D’Angelo, who heads the Special Interest Registries for PCA as well as being one of three members of the Nominating Committee. The gang discusses what makes someone sell a project car at a loss after spending considerable money on it; whether the "safari" 911 (or potentially 911 "Dakar," we've since learned) that is coming out will have any connection to the automaker's Paris-Dakar history; and the new electric turbocharger that Porsche patented. John D’Angelo tells us about his time with PCA as a volunteer, how he decided to use Cole Scrogham and Madison Automotive Apprentices to restore Kermit (a Conda Green 993 Cabriolet), and what it was like doing European Delivery with his 991 Club Coupe, one of Porsche's best-kept secrets. Damon gives us updates on the videos he’s shooting and editing and Rob makes us all jealous with the news that he will drive the 718 Cayman GT4 RS.
