OK, I would not judge the man based on one clip.

Being a 911 fan, kind of shocking to see a thread on a car forum that does not know about Magnus, but he is a kind of an icon of air cooled 911’s, so if you don’t follow Porsche, you may never hear of him.

In short: He has a book, a documentary, is on tv, in video games, podcasts all the time and has his own restoration brand and signature way of restoring cars with his personal touches. I know at one time he was a trackrat, so probably can drive pretty well, despite the clip above.

He is big on cars having a soul, and the 1M does, so his blessing of a non-Porsche, and even that - a modern car is a big compliment to the 1M.
