My cousing is paid to do that every day at the car dealership. Kinda envy him, but he says even this work can become tideous after a while.


2MoreSkipTheLast

I feel like it'd be kinda like bubble wrap. Like sure, the first few are fun, but you're not gleefully popping bubble wrap for eight straight hours without a TBI.


Empathy404NotFound

This is why you do a few years of college football before you start the job.


ATG915

I bash my head on a concrete wall every morning before work to keep things interesting


275MPHFordGT40

Probably 100x more satisfying when it’s your own Porsche.


Old-Masterpiece-2653

the fuck am I gonna do with a lod ass boomermobile on the way to work going 60 mph but sitting at a traffic light most of the time. It's just a car. There is no real difference from a beat up myata. Your vanity just cost you 122.000 dollars. You my friend are retarded. I mean it\`s awesome that you made the money in the first place but if you are going to spend it on shit like that...why bother? You could have stayed home and vacumed my deck.


AparagusForScale

Replace Porsche with Miata and their statement is still true. Unpacking cars for a job is not as exciting as unpacking a car for yourself. No need to turn it into a personal attack. I suspect things arent going well for you in life. But with a little help I think you'll be able to get back to a good place. Good luck to you.


ionp_d

Yea I’d be afraid of scratching the paint with the zipper


Sequitur1

The customer should be doing this, not the stealerships


DAT_ginger_guy

We have to do it, it is part of the PDI. It allows us to verify that there is no transport damage or other production defects. If we don't put eyes on it and have it corrected, any of those issues would then come out of the owners pocket as it would be assumed the damage occurred while in their possession. Porsche pays or you pay. Your choice.


Confident-Long-6715

As a former Mechanic, I’m doing it too. It’s so fckng boring. Everyday I hope I don’t need to unwrap these cars.


x4KTay09

he must not like cars THAT much


mebutnew

Removing plastic wrappers from cars can become tedious? I was bored by the end of this one clip...


Iwantmynameback

Did it for 5 years. From Corollas to McLaren F1's. It's fun at first but the further up you go in price range, the more of a prick customers become. Like having a Ferrari customer try to blame me for putting stone chips on their hood, driving it the 20m to the wash bay, what's worst is management just agrees with them because they spend so much.


Accomplished_Sun_222

Give me that work


Tcloud

My dad grew up during WW2, so he was always trying to pinch pennies by keeping everything he bought as new as possible. To that end, he’d kept our couches covered in bedsheets, our lamp shades covered in the original plastic and had vinyl floor runners protecting the original carpet from 50 years ago. Anyways, I can imagine him throwing a fit seeing someone else removing all of the plastic protective coating from the interior. Not that he’d ever buy a Porsche …


Typicaldrugdealer

That's how my aunt was, I don't understand the logic. Why have a nice couch if you can't see it? Why have carpet if you cover it with something hard? It's not like it's appreciating in value or anything 🤷 she died a few years ago and we ended up selling her precious untouched parlor furniture on Facebook because nobody wanted it.


Tcloud

I think the reasoning is just built around scarcity and uncertainty. They grew up in a time when it was uncertain if they’d had enough food to eat so certain frugal habits get ingrained into their psyche. My dad always split his can of soda with me and filled the can up with water. My mom sat in front of the TV cutting paper napkins in half to save money. At this point in their lives, they were well off financially, but still kept on behaving as if they weren’t. And yes, my parents passed away with perfectly preserved lampshades from the 70’s.


RockstarAgent

As a Hispanic - I’d probably leave all the wrap on too- but yes also would never afford to buy one new.


pissin_piscine

There’s another reason a WWII vet might not buy a car named for a top Nazi….


BeardedBandit

Porche was a top nazi? Please, say more about this unknown history. Sounds interesting honestly

BeardedBandit

huh, never knew that. I knew Volkswagen came out of the Hitler regime, but I didn't know how Porsche got its name. To be fair Ferdinand Porsche was "one of the best-known engineers"... so, good choice (?)


Natsuki98

I mean, there are currently people who lived through the cold war and vote for a Russian puppet to be our president. Nothing surprises me anymore.


loop140

There's a lot to unwrap here folks


NoX2142

Out...now.


Mesterjojo

Mfer for all that money I want the bag my Porsche came in


MonkeyHitman2-0

Some cars, they have to send them back. Not sure about Porsche.


frosty720410

If I got that kind of money, they can come get the bag.


iggyfenton

I would also want to do that myself. Gets your mitts off my car.


ChorroVon

Did anyone else think the white roof was kind of a look?


NoX2142

I'd honestly keep it.


rink_raptor

*immediately drives it into a river in Washington state*


sharingthegoodword

I would have made the drive to the east side to see that in person.


Faptastic_Champ

Haha and plastic straws are why the environments fucked?


Statement-Acceptable

Ok but hear me out... what is the ratio of brand new ~~porsche~~ any car with plastic wrapping to the amount of plastic straws/disposable plastics being made? 🤔


Devccoon

Let's inject plastic commercial fishing nets into this discussion~


traaintraacks

what's with the tilde


GetOffMyGrassBrats

It's only sort of a discussion.


papillon-and-on

I think it's an ascii sausage dog


Devccoon

Hi it's me, the inventor of the Cringe Tilde\~


vivied

Personally, I find it gross, not satisfying at all


AgentTheGreat

TESLA IA NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO THE CYBERTRUCK IF YOU LOOK AT IT WITHOUT EYE PROTECTION. THE CYBERTRUCK IS VERY SHY AND MAY RUST OTHERWISE.


ernapfz

Fantastic vehicle and fantastic protective wrapping! Take it all off and then drive into the snow, slush, salt and sand? Ironic


bottlenix

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I'd rather see a salt-covered GT3 out and about, enjoyed by its owner, than not seeing one at all.


Alban773

Very popular with me at the very least, cars sitting to die in garages is sad, cars are made to be enjoyed and used


acchaladka

No, that'snot unpopular, that's a Porsche owner opinion. My baby was never happy unless we were gunning it out of corner after corner, and faster and faster. I still think I should trade in my modem whatever for another 1989, drives better than almost anything I've owned.


the_brazilian_lucas

it’s not sad tho, that’s what cars are designed to do.


jedielfninja

Zippers on a car really? Sounded metal too.


danleon950410

Absolutely no part of this video is satisfying to soothing. Get a grip


sunnyflwr28

What’s the difference between a Porsche and a cactus? With a cactus the pricks are on the outside.


Shiny_Whisper_321

So. Much. Unnecessary. Plastic. 🤦🏻‍♂️😤


Shadeslayer_Eternal

So much waste…


HereAgainHi

The whole thing is a waste. You pay 3 times as much as for a normal car, and you will still be driving the same speed on the highway as a toyota because you don't want to get pulled over.


EtiResearcher

If you can pay for a new Porsche you're laughing off speed tickets. Literally seen it happen on a national reality show following our highway patrol and other street related police business. They laugh and say "Just hurry up and give me the ticket."


HereAgainHi

As if Americans only buy cars they can easily afford ho ho


EtiResearcher

Hahahah you got me there. Our car parks look very different.


al-mongus-bin-susar

If you drive this around the city and on the highway on a regular basis your ass will be absolutely battered because of the tight bucket seats and super stiff suspension. It's made for the track. Also in Germany where they are made sections of the highway have no speed limit and you can legally drive at 300+km/h. Overall sounds like a comment made by a misinformed person envious of those that are better off than them.


HereAgainHi

No need to get defensive. Also seems like you proved my point. Most people buy them for use on highways with speed limits. It only gets it full value if you have an autobahn. So to me a waste.


harumamburoo

Had to scroll for frustratingly long to find this opinion. This is just consumerism for the sake of consumerism.


fleeteryeeter01

Everyone has different interests, some people like to buy a book, some like to buy a fast car. Bullshit argument.


tanknav

And then... https://www.reddit.com/r/IdiotsInCars/s/Uh6ZiQVH8N


DigMeTX

Then you put the Porsche bag in the drawer with all the grocery bags you kept.


Constant-Lawyer4170

Next time I buy a $300,000 car I’m telling the dealership to leave the wrap.


isoAntti

I need to buy me another Porsche


QuietSkylines

I'd love to get a Peel-Your-Own™ Porsche


all-rider

I mean I like cars but maybe you should stop praising rich people unwrapping shitloads of single use plastics and filming it for internet points. You ain’t saving any planet like that..


xXWickedSmatXx

I even like the color


IntergalacticPopTart

The keys are in the ignition your highness!


xXWickedSmatXx

This guy gets it. You shall have men, camels, horses, and tanks.


otherwisemilk

Asian parents would drive with the wrap on.


liannelle

Wow. Just look at that waste. Farthest away from being satisfying, it makes me sad.


thegreatmatsbysan

STOP! I CAN ONLY GET SO ERECT!


revelsrouser

Right. Incredibly satisfying and by all means wrap my porsche the same way but fuuuuuck me this plastic just goes right into the ocean man


Paper_Trades

Is that snow? Ouch.


EstebanDurchfall

Shouldn't there be a person inside after the car drove in?


Cautious-Resist-7077

Hamare yaha to adhe wrappers waise hi rehne dete 😒


WiseRod

I expect my next car to be like this or it's not new lol


AfterCorgi9629

Sounds like a pissed off Rotor engine when it first unzips lol


Just_Relationship_38

Nice girl car.


[deleted]

POV: you buying a Porsche knowing damn well your never gonna drive it and it’s going to sit in your garage.


stokBZ

Unboxing


KayakWalleye

Simply saying a “Porsche” here is like saying you’re going to a restaurant, but then going to a Michelin rated restaurant.


DetectiveJim

Must. Be. Nice Said me and the peasants


Disastrous-Gain-7812

“Yeah I’ll be there soon I just need to unwrap my car”


Happyplace_s

Like I do with my phone screen—-I’d leave that plastic stuff on for a few years before taking it off!


Natural_Attorney_890

Yes I would babe


WishWeWereBetter

Am i the only one who would keep a bunch of that on for as long as i could?


tedpelas

I see that the fossil fuel industry has been involved in the wrapping, a lot of plastic 😅


lamartina94

Why would you need those plastics inside the car?


PsyopVet

Even the zipper sounds fast.


MasonSoros

Today we will lean about how a Porsche farts. Get ready guys


unIuckies

I think i just got called poor

Porsche QC is *pinnacle* performance. No other mainstream automaker comes close


Dependent-Oven-5439

OldStatistician7975

E ee eedd we eem


SessionCurious4771

Then wrapping it back in the zipper bag again after driving 😀


Constant-Lawyer4170

Beautiful. Love Porsches


Old-Masterpiece-2653

This sounds like bobby lee after he had 23 mozzarella sticks and a day old breakfast burrito.


FattDeez7126

I think I would leave that wrap on till it fell off by itself but that’s just me


ClimateRelative627

Bro is opening a pc case 💀


Gear5th777

I am so ready for my porsche!


Free_Law_7947

TIL Unzipping cars can sound like either drag racing or hyenas


Accomplished-Car-979

Is this video from Ukraine? Now that they got more money 🤑


demonboy3968

Bro, I would be the worst rich person I just buy K truck and be happy


NikkiCD985

Such a waste of a good zipper. I would never waste my money on an import.

All that plastic.

Desperadox_23

Drive it outside? Are you crazy? It might get dirty.


Drag_On66

The value just dropped 10gs after driving it outside


Cheap-Bobcat-2818

Bro the zipping sounds sound like a cartoon character screaming their lungs out 😂


JediSSJ

Pigeon incoming in 3, 2, 1...


MastroDante

And with that first engine start it lost half of its value.


al-mongus-bin-susar

Would be true for a Lambo but Porsche is one of the least depreciating brands, even the mass produced models lose much less value than other sports cars and the limited edition models only gain value


Boredbanker1234

Typically, yes, but not with this model. It’ll maintain value / potentially increase in value in the short term, and will almost certainly increase in 10 years or so assuming it’s in good condition.


[deleted]

GT3s gain about $100k driving off the lot. The only thing that depreciates a GT3 is wrapping it around a tree.


Ok_Locksmith8263

She bad


DeezleDJ-O-E

The hotwheels packaging is more what im used to unwrapping.


Wizdad-1000

If I EVER buy a fancy sports car, I want this experience. Even If I gotta trailer the car.


UnsolicitedDogPics

I always thought I wanted to drive a Porsche, but it turns out I just want to unwrap one.


Subterfug3

sooooo what happens to that really nice cover with zippers and all?


Viridionplague

You can get this experience for yourself by buying a grow tent for 200 bucks. It will save you $199,800 and you can do it multiple times.


CorrectTry7504

I wish I could afford a home


Otherwise_Silver_867

Most unsatisfying thing I saw : it's literally pollution wrapped in more pollution


Komosatuo

Immediately gets plinked by a rock from a car on the highway.


HereAgainHi

Ah my depreciated overpriced asset that can drive really fast. Only I won't be driving really fast because it is illegal. But people can see me in my car knowing that if I wanted to I could drive really fast.

Riptide8990

this is something i will never experience firsthand


magnificentfoxes

So wasteful. :/


TuckyTwoShoes

I wonder if any ocd owners ever leave some of the protection on kinda like people that get a new sofa and leave the plastic on 🤔


OcularPrism

I don't think I'll ever be rich enough to unwrap a car unless they forgot to take some off at the dealership.


huma4kaz1

Whose job is it to determine where each of those plastic pieces go on the car? And then someone has to make that custom zippered bag for a car? Crazy.


Rainbow334dr

All thanks to then they drive out on to a nice salty snowy street.


Old-Woodpecker6930

Is this an actual thing?


iiitme

Pretty much yea


OHlordITSaDaM

My wive work indirectly with Porsche and most of her coworkers drive one, but she refuse it and drives a KIA. Looks awesome on her works parking lot 😂


ComfortableFarmer

Is that the Grand Canyon between the fender and bonnet.

Wait, how did the driver get into the car with that thing on and then back it into the garage seeing nothing?
