For me, if I’m going to get a loud car, might as well get the loud wing to go with it!
@jimsteinway6952 жыл бұрын
Exactly, no wing no GT3. AND the biggest weakness of the GT3 is low torque. You must be in the correct gear at the right speed to use this car correctly ( I’ve had 2 manual GT3s) one mistake even in a little drag race and you’ll get toasted by a M3. SO what fixes that? A PDK. It eliminates the largest weakness of the GT3 and allows you to stay competitive with cars with more torque

Engaging and useful video. Previously, odd colours on GT and RS models, were unpopular new, but years on, they are rare and sought after. If you’re lucky enough to buy one of these cars at list price, I think order what you like, not try and predict future demand. Touring in Silver or Graphite looks like a long term ownership proposition to me. Not sure about the box. Prefer manual, but six speeds might just be too much. I have a 7 litre 427 Cobra and you simply can’t change gear fast enough to extract all the performance.

Here’s the truth about the GT3, I’ve had 3 GT3s 2 manual one PDK. ( 996, 997.1, 991.2) The largest weakness of the GT3 is low torque. If you tracking your car which by the way THE PURPOSE of the GT3, and you’re in the incorrect gear there’s not enough torque to pull you out of that mistake. Even in a little drag race, if you’re in one gear too high you’ll get smoked by a M3. The PDK eliminates any mistake in shifting and delivers immediate gratification in driving to correct line. Even if you get to the point where you do one lap perfectly in a whole day shifting wise you’re going to screw up your line because you’re concentrating so much on making the correct shift because of lack of torque. Because you’re slower than other cars especially when you goof up your gear shifts . Sure if you ever get both right it’ll be rewarding, but the PDK is immediately rewarding. But you still need to hit your turning and breaking points. I don’t understand why you’d buy a track purposed car THEN select the slower car. For what? I think it’s just a cover for getting your ass kicked all the time. You can say “well I derive more pleasure being more involved with my car” while getting passed by every M3 corvette and every other car on the track. Use the paddles they’re just as fun. The manual has auto blip etc so you’re really not becoming the greatest heel & toe driver anyway. Buy the faster car! As far as the PCCB Brakes I had them on the first two and refused them on the third. Replacing rotors either through wear or damage, which happens more than Porsche will admit is a huge cost. and it’s a constant worry. Just the stress of tracking and worrying about them isn’t worth $9000 USD. Of Course This guy wants you to, he’ll get more dough. Porsches steel brakes are the best in the world and unless your a factory driver you won’t notice them unless your track has 54 turns per lap. I’ll admit the better drivers will notice the unsprung weight on turn in which he didn’t mention and that’s really the best reason to get them. He’s telling you need them “ because it’s a GT3 “ but then tells you to get the slower manual transmission. Hmmm . The fixed back carbon seats ARE NOT comfortable especially on long drives. The standard 4 way seats are serviceable and are the lightest seat in the line. Then he tells you to get the BOSE system ( it costs more OF COURSE) but the real music IS OUT BACK!!! Don’t waste your money. If you want to put your touch on the car with carbon, stitching colors etc go ahead. It’s probably your dream car. And that’s your choice and if you followed my advice you’ll have $15-$18,000 more to play with. But after 3 GT3s I get the most enjoyment out of this setup: PDK, Standard brakes, Standard 4 way seats, standard stereo. The rest is up to you. Front lift is mandatory. Good luck and good driving!!!

@@nickgalla-barth6336 A GT3 is essentially a racecar for the road, the touring package adds just a bit more stealth for the look. Keep in mind that this is a pure drivers car with focus on performance, driving excellence and fun. A sunroof wouldn't make any sense since that adds so much weight and even worse to the top of the car shifting the center of gravity. Rear seats I agree would be cool but again don't seem to fit the theme of the car.

About all the extras that essentially add weight: You are definitely right, they just realised that basic comfort-extras need to be available for the customers interested in a racecar for the road that costs 200k
