15 HOURS in a Porsche 911 GT3 Touring | TheCarGuys.tv

[@jamesrichards5601]

2:30 Glad you mentioned that. I do thoroughly enjoy waking up early around 4:30am on a Sunday morning to drive my cars around The New Forest and surrounding areas. Beautiful clear sunrise, morning mist, empty roads, no cyclists - utter bliss for us petrolheads.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Amen to that

[@oliverharvey637]

Thanks Damian, a perfect video to watch on a Friday afternoon. Hope you had a great time on the road trip, atleast you had the weather on your side, from what I can see anyway! Keep up the good work, it's always appreciated 👌

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Glad you enjoyed it

GT3 - Christopher Lee. (It rhymes and he played a red-eyed Dracula)

[@dam00r]

The Dracula!

[@TheCarGuysTV]

I'm liking that

[@themadplotter]

Don''t forget he was also in The Howling 2: Stirba - Werewolf Bitch aka Your Sister Is A Werewolf

[@faizjalal5600]

And a dentist

[@Dan-wz9tr]

Now that's gotta stick........good shout

[@Bunzietto]

What do you think about new seats for the GT3, and to put rear seat as well? I have a manual 991 GTS with the classical adjustable plus seats that i changed because the bucket's ones were killing me. Oh my god, a totally new car, such a sweet everyday driving car, i think that i put on it like 40k kilometers in just two years.

[@YachtReport]

I did a two week road trip in my 997 custom GT2RS to Spain, Monaco and back through France. 2,500 miles. Same seats and Ohlins suspension.

[@cutdepiefails6596]

How good or bad were the ohlins? What rates are you running on them? 997 gt2 do have much nicer spring rates oem, I suspect even the ohlins run less agressive spring rates as the 991.2 gt cars

[@RogerBaileyOnCars]

It was nice to have come along with you Damian, albeit from my sumptuously comfortable sofa

[@TheCarGuysTV]

My pleasure

[@markhamnett4997]

If you think that’s bad , try driving Melbourne to Adelaid in a Nissan navara 🤣🤣

[@victorferm4049]

Best road!

[@petermarkadams]

Thanks Damian ... it was a blast! Good to see u getting ready for the GTE season!

[@karlx19]

Hard and loud - I once drove from Yarm (north east UK) to Torquay (south west UK) in an Elise with a Larini exhaust - I still have damaged ears ;)

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Very nice!

[@popsbubbles1242]

Nutter I drove my sports bike to Scotland once ...never again Rather get there with functioning legs and back

[@aljack1979]

I used to do the exact same, S1 111S with larini, from Cumbria to Portsmouth 😬😂

[@ghowells5433]

Great way to start a weekend, I love my 991.2 GT3 best car ever and the touring is just a bit cooler. You got to keep this one forever.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

That's the plan!

[@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab]

Love your Porsche 911 GT3 Touring, Damian. 👍🏻 Great vid. 👏🏻

[@richardsayer1533]

Loved the ‘road trip’ format....more please 😊

[@6apache178]

once again you've enabled us to enjoy this amazing car ! Thank you again

[@mowilliams1511]

Fan-bloody-tastic video! Love this car, I remember when you went and swapped your Carrera T for it, are you still annoyed with the non-leather interior or have you got over it now? 🤔

[@TheCarGuysTV]

I've got over it now, esp once I re-trimmed the seats in houndstooth.

[@mowilliams1511]

I did spy that, lovely touch, I love a bit of houndstooth 😉

[@dangriffiths9813]

Fantastic - what a day! One of the things I love about this channel is you drive the cars and put miles on them rather than just walk around them telling us the stats. The GT3 Touring is not too flashy, fast, has a manual gearbox and sounds good. Great car for just getting out and driving.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@davidjackson2441]

That Brecon Drive was epic! We had a very early start too but it was worth it. Fortunately our GTS has the 18 way seats so the 338 miles we did that day wasn’t as painful!! Great to meet you too Damian.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Great to meet you too, Dave

[@villaman4818]

Great video..really enjoyed it. Went to the Highlands last year on a Porsche run...you cant beat these group trips....enjoy.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Couldn't agree more!

[@pappasmurf64]

The Car Guys and Harry's Garage....my two favourite car channels by miles.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

You have great taste, sir

[@rodasrodas]

This was a good one. A day in a 500hp NA 911, well done. I miss a car with 100 mph third gear. You cover secondary roads swiftly and always screaming. Maybe you should fix or improve the seats and drive even more. Why not ? Its a keeper. What tyres do you use ? Maybe a softer / different one could be a tad quieter. Make it a tiny tiny bit softer. These special 911s are really really appealing .. I would have mine in light blue metallic ! Thank you for the video and ride

[@cheshirered9204]

Thriller! In honour of Jacko's epoch-making video with midnight darkness, black-clad monsters and red eyes everywhere. Great sound track too, like your GT3.

[@tyeben]

Great video as always Damian love the fact you drive your cars. Always makes me sad to see cars with delivery miles what's the point. Thanks Ben

[@martinboulden3540]

What a brilliant video Damian. Driving these cars is what it’s all about. Adventures and fun. (Just behave in Lyme Regis !)

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Cheers, Martin

[@terryfenner8142]

Really enjoyed this video Damien, I agree that the roads of Wales are some of the best in the UK ( but I am biased ), fair play you looked knackered at the end of that ... looking forward to the next one... 👌🏻

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Glad you enjoyed it, Terry

[@sarcodiauk2921]

Brilliant video ....thanks for taking us along 👍

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@marcnobel3938]

I must say the watch fits the car perfectly in this Video. - The GT3 Touring is so timeless you could still go to the event in 20 years and look good. - Cool Cars, great sounds, and entertaining to watch. Superb Video!

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Cheers, Marc

[@happydays7035]

Much Welly givith! Though the buckets niggle me! You're living out the common man's dream!

[@TheCarGuysTV]

👍👍👍

[@Bluenose372]

Brilliant episode Damian, what an epic day.... Given how amazing you (and we) think the GT3 Touring is then you could name it after a DC Comic character with red eyes called “Amazo”, feels pretty apt... although I did like “Christopher Lee” suggestions too....

[@euroshark1]

Solid car there Damian. I think she's a keeper. Thanks for sharing the adventure. Cheers

[@mattylf1]

What a great day. Glad to see the car is being used for what it was made for. Love doing convoys/drives brings like minded people together to drive.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Couldn't agree more!

[@Pablo-bp3dq]

Consistently the best channel, content and Friday night entertainment! Thank you for your time and effort 😎👍🏻

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Wow, thanks! Glad you enjoyed it

[@saegaema]

I noticed as you went through second and third gear, pulling some RPM, that Jag in front of you did NOT hold you up. Loved the video. I'm from Northern New England, U.S. and have had the pleasure of driving the Cotswold's (and fortunately some other roads in England, Scotland, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Tuscany , Italy, etc.). But such beautiful driving roads in the Cotswold's, indeed. We've a few good roads here in the U.S. but I didn't miss a second of your video through the stunning countryside of Wales and England. I always enjoy your work. Cheers!

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Cheers, dude

[@user-nl8bm5wc7p]

Thank you so much Damian! This is what is all about!!!

[@TallDrink911]

Perhaps my favorite car in the collection. What a wonderful, albeit physically taxing experience. As battered and bruised as your body is, I know you would do it again in a heartbeat. The true essence of driving

[@TheCarGuysTV]

In a heartbeat! Glad you enjoyed it

[@TallDrink911]

Has to be SR71 Blackbird, the Red glow are it’s afterburners. Had a chat a while back about my own purchase of a car. Ended up with a manual guards 996 Turbo. 50k miles mint and brings a smile to my face every time I look at it. Keep up the great work, makes my Fri Night

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Very cool!

Great show. Loved it. Again I say your show is the most enjoyable content on youtube by a country mile! GT3 Christopher Lee is good but Pete the Porsche has to be the one because Pete's eyes are that red!

[@2meninamotor112]

Think that's one of your best videos yet. You really get the sense of speed as you drive on those twisty roads. I didn't care much for that bronze coloured Porsche though with all the headlights! Our new video will be out later on today, and we give you lads a mention - it's only 20 minutes too, so please give it a watch ! Cheers, Al and Si.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Looking forward to that 👍

[@tubs1984]

Love those houndstooth seats and the Patek. You could call it the Red Hot Porker!

[@DwainDwight]

A GT3 without a wing, for which you will now have to pay almost a 50% premium and remember, it was a zero cost option on release. Nice car, but I will just get a manual GT3.

I bought my GT3 Touring 5 weeks after a total knee replacement and drove it 2000 k from Mornington peninsular in VIC to Queensland in Aust. The pain was worth it. Get the seat lifting brackets it makes a big difference to those seats. Plan to do a 100000 k in mine as well. Can’t believe people buy these cars and only do 1500 k over 3 years. Really like your videos Thankyou.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Thanks, Mike - what a story you have there - great effort!

[@stuartbrowning3074]

Congratulations on using your Porsche, for what it was designed to do! Like many other Porsche owners, mine spends far too much time, (just sitting there), not being driven. Very interesting, keep up the good work!

Cheers, Stu

[@themadplotter]

GT3 - T800 (a cybernetic organism, living tissue over metal endoskeleton)

[@MP_pov]

What I think you need is red seatbelts (or perhaps just drivers side), then the red dials will fit the whole car better (edit - and / or a chronograph with a red band or accent)

[@chuynher]

Well done mate! Love and share your passions for the gt3!

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Thank you! 👍

Another fantastic video, the superlatives are flowing again. Love the houndstooth seats and if the one I find doesn't have them, I'll be sure to ask for your contact. As for your car, I know I'm late to the party name-wise, I've not read all the suggestions, but Count Blackula would be my shout!....Keep up the good work.

[@alastairwardle3981]

Great video Damien. The perfect car on perfect roads. Last year I took a friends GT3 for a drive through Pembrokeshire also with the fixed buckets. Great for a blast, but I can’t imagine doing 15 hours in them 😂 You have my upmost respect.

Cracking video. Can’t help feeling that if you plan to put 100,000 miles on it you may want to give your back some respite and replace those carbon buckets with some 18 ways. After all it is a Touring.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Good point
