Porsche 911 R Tackling Goodwood Hill Is Pure Poetry

We waited a long time to see the extremely hot Porsche 911 R at the hill climb part of this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, and now that the footage is here we have to say we’re a bit disappointed. That’s not because the car is anything less than spectacular. Quite the contrary, it’s brilliant. We’re mad because in this official video instead of focusing on the car they keep cutting to the mug of the production manager or whoever that guy is.

Still, catching a few glimpse of the Porsche 911 R in action at Goodwood is better than nothing at all:
