This year has been extremely good for UFC commentator and podcast host Joe Rogan. Rogan, who has been involved with the UFC for years, saw his popularity soar once again in 2021, for the most part in a positive way. His podcast, ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’, grabbed the number one spot on Spotify’s most-followed podcasts in 2021. 

Apart from being a die-hard mixed martial arts fan, Rogan is also extremely interested in cars- classics in particular. The podcast host has appeared on the likes of ‘The Jay Leno Show’ where he proudly displayed his immaculately maintained 1965 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and discussed the car in detail with Jay Leno.

Another hidden gem in Rogan’s collection is perhaps the most exclusive of the lot, i.e. a Gunther Werks 911 Porsche. It is limited to 25 models and therefore is a truly unique machine. The car features a 4.0-liter naturally aspirated flat-six motor designed by Rothsport from Oregon. The engine pumps out 431 horsepower and 423 Nm of torque at 7,800 RPM. It also has a six-speed manual transmission that facilitates an epic driving experience for a purist.

Gunther Werks is a California-based company that specializes in custom modifications of Porsche cars, mainly the 911 models. It is rumored that a base-spec Gunther Werks 911 could cost around $565,000. However, that figure can easily be surpassed by adding custom modifications.
