Porsche 911 Carrera GTS. Why this makes for a better road car than the 992 GT3 

Spot on, couldnt agree more.

Amen to that.

Fawning over the guy ... why?

@@johnsmith1474 because he's really rather good at this.

@@TuvingtonD Yeah and they all grew up learning and reading his magazine: EVO.

Liked how you worded that! 👌

@Sam Miale Well, to be fair the 992 GT3 DOES have fake real vents. Just watch Harry's review.

@Sam Miale i am actually having a good laugh at the both of you. It's so clear you are not on my level of knowledge and wisdom and class.

@Sam Miale probably satire... his name is credible commenter

Agreed, but what are Porsche doing with their branding ? I love the script that says ‘Porsche’ or ‘Boxster’ etc across the rear of each car, but newer models are starting to copy the boot lid if a 60s Ford Cortina . Too many names and numbers and sometimes badly sized/l displayed. My little Boxster is discrete by comparison and that is one of the main reason I like it so very much.

🤓

I was surprised by that comment on the video and after a quick google I couldn’t find out if it was accurate or not. Come back to here to post about it and perfectly timed, see your response! Thanks for that! Great video and I love the GTS. The more I see them the more I love them. It feels more like a Turbo without the proper “turbo” engine then it does an S on steroids

@Clara Easy tiger, we all love the Harry's uploads but keep it in your trousers, eh? :D

@@saltlake6577 When you criticise others about errors, you should make sure your comments do not include errors. Absolut is a vodka, absolute is the word you needed. Compatible is not the word you need. You need comparable. I await your vitriolic response.

@@sq1rlsqu4d 😂👏👊

Pretty much! 🤣

I know you are trying to be funny, but a base 911 with no options is an excellent car. I can't think of one thing I would add if I was ordering a new 992 today. Maybe a glass sunroof. $2,000. Maybe.

You forgot floormats….I’m not joking.

Yep. But TBH, I find I couldn't care less. Like celebrity gossip. Who cares? Seems I don't, and the philo-911ies can dream of this as they drop off to the shorter gearstick with the New Shape. A huge opening, indeed, Harry. Hoping for a vid on how's the paint drying on the estate fencing... x

I thought the point of so many variants was to give you a price range. They are ALL expensive, a base Carrera can be optioned out to be as expensive as a Turbo. And some of the variants are redundant.

@@MrTimeless101 if you know Porsches, owned some you would know. The different versions are distinct. Also the pricing is relative, most of them you can sell even with a higher price (right now) or very little loss of value.

Actually there are not too many 911 models. Porsche just makes it seem like it for marketing purposes. There is (in order) the Carrera, Carrera S, GTS, Turbo and GT3. With the standard Carrera being a sporty cruiser and the GT3 being the most track focused. You can get the Carreras also with 4WD - then the has a "4" in the Name. You also get most models as Coupe, Cabrio or Targa. However the suspension settings, engine, steering and mandatory options really make a difference on the road. Especially the GTs. They for example have a completely different front axle.

@@herrmann967 Exactly. Used to feel overwhelmed until about two years when I moved to a neighborhood with a Porsche(I actually snobbly pronounce like a German now😂)Center close by. Now have the 930 turbo as one of my dream cars.

There is no split between the gt3 and the gt3 touring. the only difference is the lack of spoiler in the touring. With the GT3 being so track focused, I don't know where they go with the gt3RS

loco I am from Canada and the wait list at the largest Porsche dealer in the country is 4-5 years for a GTS. I had to go with a heavily spec’d 992 4S. You’ll be lucky to get an allocation for a GTS bro.

@@TheShaneglass05 I did get an allocation and turned it down to go for a GT3 when the 992.2 happens.

@@TheShaneglass05 -Update. The GT3 slot never materialized. But got the call yesterday to place the order for another 911 GTS. Going through with it and his time. 🍾🎉

Never mind up with the best , he's the one all others are judged by .

They are the same, Sans wing

@@chadbarbaro And tyres. A few of the reviews I’ve seen have said the tyre factor on it’s own significantly changes it’s road manners in terms of tram-lining and harshness.

Wow that's great man - enjoy it !!! That's like christmas, counting down the nights :)

@@bavariancarenthusiast2722 thanks. certainly is. And Harry’s video has spiked my anticipation.

But it still doesn’t bob on the front end, 997 was the last that did.

Exactly what I thought, it's journalists drifting for the cameras hour after hour with some level of stability control still switched on that has most likely ruined those rear rotors. I don't think most owners would ever have this problem unless they were complete knobheads - and in any case, how many sets of steel rotors could you get for 6000 pounds? A lifetimes worth I'd bet.

A Chris Harris disc grumble? 😂

The Touring drives no differently than the winged GT3. It’s the same exact car less the aero differences.

It’s exactly the same car as the GT3 but with a slightly different body.

Absolutely true but only if you need to carry two kids on the back. There is a reason why mid engined cars rule motorsports and the very reason why current (mid engined - note) 911 racers are all in all nothing but a Cayman with a 911 skin. Take that.

Cool story bro

@@nutprick don't listen to me. Never. I hate the MX5, I hate the S2k, but I looooooove the Yaris GR and the Cayman GTS. Buy the car that has the highest resale value, buy the 1 round on the Nurburgring, drive your sorry excuse of "a lap" on it, and get lost.

@@tocsa120ls You "hate" what are among the most engaging cars to drive. Find some help for that miserable, black heart.

@@opmike343 I can tell you've never touched any of them.
