Pat Goss and John Davis are the reason I became a car guy and heavily influenced me as a child in the early 80s when I first started watching Motorweek. RIP Pat Goss.

Yeah this sucks a lot. I always appreciate people who like to share advice and help people learn. Pat Goss was like the friendly Counselor at school.

@@boss12 I’m gonna have to say that I too got addicted to cars cuz of motorweek, which I first saw in 1992, ever since then Pat and John have been my car mentors. I can’t believe how long it’s been….over 30years of religiously watching them get older and older, as myself got older too, from being 7 years old to being 38 years old this year….I wouldn’t be the car nut I am today without motorweek! And who could forget about my childhood crush Lisa barrow!!
I’ve only been apart of the Motorweek crew for a couple of years now but can say I’ve kept up with a lot of the material you guys put out. Extremely underrated & surprised you guys don’t have subscribers numbering in the double digits millions. Sorry to hear about your guys loss! Race in heaven Pat!
So sorry to hear about the loss of Pat Goss. RIP.

So I am sure that at least 1 person here in this thread has heard about the death of Pat Goss, & with that, I have a GREAT idea for either a future Retro Review or a future program. A commemorative episode of many of the segments, including reflecting on working with him, as well as hot mic camera sections that never make it to TV.

That would be a respectful thing to do, if it agrees with his principles, imo. Either way this sucks to hear.

I’m pretty sure they will honor him.
Brolin of Traffic (2000), wife Barbra. I had a ‘99 base 911 with LSD, forged wheels, and a lightweight Auspuff. Amaaaazing car, 6 speed, 2900lbs, a little over 300hp amazing when it comes on-cam about 4500 that song. These have always been able to add suspension - such crazy stiff chassis - and go off-road. This bit of trivia was hiding for a while ha.
Man my deepest condolences to Pat Goss’s family and his motorweek family on his passing! There will never be another one like him to replace him on that show! I watched motorweek since it first aired in1981! And loved watching him on his segments, on Goss garage! Rip🙏Mr. Goss you’re definitely will be missed.
RIP Pat. Thoughts are with his family and the MW team.
All prayers for Goss and motor week family
The 911 is such an awesome platform that's utility and versatility continues to surprise me. It's a great car for the Modern Family man or woman.

Well this sucks.
Wonderful story about the Porsche 911 being tested to the limit in the Mojave Desert. My condolences on the passing of Pat Goss. The one and the only. He will be missed.
My buddy Ron Griffo and I were fortunate enough to be the route guides on this trip. I was also the guide for the press introduction of the Cayenne in 2002 when Porsche supported maintenance of Clark's Grade, an original route up and over the mountain ridge into Big Bear Lake, California, as part of their Cayenne Crossing Initiative. A very fond memory for me and the reason there is a 2008 Cayenne Turbo with a locking rear differential in my garage right now.
Mr. Jim Brolin sounds a little like Johnny Cash 🤟
Interesting, no mention of the off-road prowess of the Dakar Rally Porsche 959 of years past.
R.I.P. The Man, The Myth, The Legend. I learned so much from watching him over the years. 😢 My condolences to entire Goss and MotorWeek family
Rest in Peace Pat Goss may your garage in heaven be everything you want and more.
What a gem this segment is
have to love that intermediate shaft bearing

I'll take a sub-1% failure rate on that over the unending oil leaks of the split-crank case air cooled engines.
For Pat....
My absolute dream car!!! Such a cool episode
Deepest and Sincerest thoughts and prayers go out to the Goss family... RIP Pat Goss.. I'm sure you're up there, offering advice to the drivers in Heaven..
Very cool! Looks like a lot of fun!
Hahaaaa! In the desert with the truck lights! Love it!
heck yea!! AWD rear engined 💪 porsche engineering!!!
Pat Goss was a pillar of my automotive upbringing. This hurts.
996 for life!
I have one in black , engine was replaced by porsche at 50k with big nut update , only has 80k on it and runs like new.
If that was then, can you imagine what he think about 911s now? Or better yet, the new Macan GTS?
Testing ground for Porche's future performance SUVs.
RIP Pat Goss 🕊
Had it for 11 years and had to rebuild the engine? I thought Porsche was known for being reliable..... I guess the standards change with high performance vehicles, and that IS reliable....
Testing for the new Cayenne
I'm surprised they survived 😳
Reminds me of Porsche Rinspeed Bedouin.
Amazing machines. RIP
It’s 20 years later, Porsche has 2 SUVs, and I doubt either of them could do this.

Ummm actually they can and they have…..their suvs are beasts when it comes to off-road, except when it comes to severe rock crawling…just like a Subaru! which is pretty damn good!! Fun fact, Subaru and Porsche are the only ones that still only use boxer engines…nice!

Anyone know where I can get the mentioned “spacers?” Would like to avoid dropping $15,000 on Elephant Racing parts on a $30,000 car…

If you go to the right fabricator, you can buy custom strut spacers. You’ll still need adjustable lower control arms though. I agree, $15,000 for a lift kit is too much. You can get lift kits for any generation WRX for a $700

It makes Camaro horsepower for the price of 6 of them, but hey, you can jack them up and take them off road! What a sports car bargain.
James Brolin called Indigenous Americans "Indians" in 2000? Clearly a racist. Time to protest the Avengers Movies and Deadpool 2. /s
RIP Pat Goss
