Chris Harris Drives... Sportscars: V12 Vantage S, AMG GT R, Porsche 911 GT3RS | Top Gear

[@TopGear]

Do true sportscars need a manual 'box, or do some people just need to be told "GET WITH THE TIMES, GRANDAD"?

[@trevorflanagan4873]

Manual=sports car

[@zerotofifty]

Pedal shifting is enough for me, as long as manufacturers don't ditch them it's still a Manual.

This video is the sole reason that BBC needs to justify giving Top Gear to Chris Harris and let him do his thing. Sure the trio formula was great when Clarkson, Hammond, and May were doing Top Gear but that's something that they did and worked at the time. Move on BBC, Chris Harris is brilliant and every motorhead would gladly sit through an hour of such a show.

[@jaboirm]

Yessss..

[@ionicacibu8437]

Since Chris Harris has joined Top Gear there are less Supercars in show because of his selfish attittude and unfair reviewing. Criticizing some of the best supercars in the world in his selfish way and giving the positive and false review in the same time of one of the most unreliable supercar is not the way to be a presenter of this show.

[@prettymuchtheapexofhumanev5810]

@@ionicacibu8437 I also noticed this. He comes over as incredibly arrogant and selfish for some reason, to a point where I literally can't stand 2 minutes of him on screen. And the other two seem completely blank.

[@rensvandewater9742]

absolutely agree!. I only watch the show because of him otherwise I wouldn't

Apart from its no longer a sports car

[@twfinc6855]

@@peponsio3260 its more powerful, doesnt mean better.. the difference in sound between the 2 is huge.. If I had the money however I would get the GT2 just because of the power

GT2RS is better on numbers but the NA engine sound from GT3RS is the best from Porsche.

Chris Harris is more than a driver, he's a musician who's greatest talent is to play an instrument called automobile.

Chris was the 4th man missing from the Clarkson/May/Hammond trio... He could actually bring a driver's perspective...as opposed to pushing humour above expertise...

[@Amory98]

Yea it is. Swap the green though and it's a marvellous looking car. Nothing close to the dapper the Porsche is.

[@okeyezeilo6187]

And that glorious exhaust rumble...

[@michealbay1290]

Can't beat the SLR or SLS, but gorgeous nonetheless

[@CP-vg4vy]

Micheal Bay As a Merc fan SLR is hideous and it aged horribly, SLS looks good but not better than GTR.

[@Yaro2]

@@CP-vg4vy I would disagree heavily, the SLS is tied with the BMW 507 for the most beautiful german car ever made for me, and the SLR is agressive from the front and elegant from the back, perfection at it’s finest. The GTR is also a masterpiece of a GT car, but the SLS and SLR are better by a small margain.

[@xapaiz]

Chris Harris on Cars is like gentleman's content. Zero effects and lousy noises, thank you CH and Neil for the effort!

[@hankthetank185]

Chris changing gears mid-drift in the GT3RS, so cool! Thank you BBC TopGear for putting this montage together with Chris. Chris is a star motoring journalist. I would love to see Chris and Tiff Needell have a dog fight on the track. It would be quite a watch! Keep up the good work Top Gear team.

Bang on!

[@twfinc6855]

its for a lady.. I would never buy a boxter

[@Vraltevas]

Has become? It's always been.

[@bradcuzzocrea3392]

I prefer to think of it as a poor mans Porsche! The only reason you’d ever buy one is because you want a “Porsche” but can’t afford a real one.

[@OctaneAndAmmo]

rich men dont buy boxters

[@JLewisRacing927]

I'd watch Chris review literally anything

[@jamesmiller113]

2014 - Hammond in the Bowler WildCat; "I am a driving God!" - ludicrous 2020 - Harris in that trick Vantage; "All is well with the world" - equally ludicrous

[@menebatto]

Harris drives literally any supercar: "Mmmhh, that's a good car, even though it has some defects" Harris drives any Porsche: "Wow! This is mind-blowing!"

[@maereanm]

32:34. Merc: well done; BMW: must try harder; Porsche: still the daddy \m/

[@Ghousempc]

BMW is not comparable to Merc, Merc makes fast cars in all divisions, BMW imitates and generaly gets its popularity from the M3 which was never faster than a Merc

[@Ghousempc]

Shumus Ali Raja m5 e60 is not that fast my friend a w204 c63 is just as fast off the line. and a m5 is not faster than e class, never was. Straight line speed is not bmw’s priorety any bmw tech could tell you by the cars design. bmws make power at high rpm, merc makes power at low rpm so it’s more suited for take off speed.The m8 is probly faster because it was designed laster with an intention to add horsepower. gt is a track car, so it’s not in the same league

[@Ghousempc]

Shumus Ali Raja and a e55 could beat a easy it has more torque at low rpm than a e60, and thats an older car. the e60 makes 507 crank which is 450 wheel horsepower.

[@AutoCosmeticaCarCare-wl3dd]

The Merc gtr is definitely the pick of the bunch the Porsche sorry but it’s brand and boring compared to the gtr

It sucks that Porche went with the 4 cylinder in 718 boxster. Thankfully GM made a brilliant V8 495 hp mid-engine Corvette..

[@sakibnawaz5240]

I must say, good review Harris. I mean this feels like he is talking from the point of what he is experiencing through out the review. Yes, I know this thing is scripted but the making is so good it does not feel like one. The 32:51 minutes is absolutely worthy.

[@ApolloGP]

you know a journalist is good when his subject is clear, and you know when a journalist is great when he is commended more than what he commends. chris harris, ladies and gentlemen

[@slowmotionmne]

AMG vs GT3 RS.. Merc has a better interior, it's faster in a straight line, has one of the best engines in the world(like the Porsche), front-mid engine and rear wheel drive(rwd hooligan, but it can be very controlable on the track) and finally it is faster on the track. Conclusion? He just loves the way Porsche drives and feels. It's subjective, but he is CHRIS HARRIS people! He has every right to say whatever he really thinks, 'cause he is the daddy.. Not Porsche, not the Merc, not a BMW M3-he is. Keep the good stuff up Chriss, cheers!

[@j_supha8335]

I’d have the Merc. The Porsche is probably a better car but that merc is badass

[@johnnyboy1586]

That particular R model porsche is a very limited run and will probably go up in value where as the Mercedes will drop fast.that particular porcshe would be my choice over anything

[@lodylanham6423]

Chris hasn’t driven a normal M4 in a while. I would love to see that when all this is lifted. Same with the Ferrari SF90

[@jochem1986]

I hate the M4... It’s the Golf GTI for Swiss people. The only people in Switzerland who own an M4 are annoying 26 year olds who’ve taken out a loan at the bank for their toy, and drive around making farting noises through city centers all day. What’s wrong with enjoying your car by yourself? Why do you have to involuntarily involve others in that? It’s a dick move.
