Porsche 993 GT2 review. Is this road racer special the ultimate air-cooled 911 turbo? 

"I wish it wasn't so rare" That is the sign of a genuine enthusiast. Enjoying the car and wishing more people could experience the same. Harry you're a national treasure and a really good bloke. Thats the kind of attitude which sets you apart from the majority of the motoring press and collectors in general. Absolutely brilliant.

12:57 - I was holding the grab handle in my living room wondering if that bloomin Golf was going to bother to stop. The Porsche looks like a real bit of kit and I really love the old school turbo cars myself. Glad it wasn't taken out by someone on their phone or half asleep.

It looks so tiny compared to today's cars, absolutely gorgeous.

One of the greats. What a great era when the race cars competed on the track and these homologation specials where released. A period that we will probably never see again. Best, most detailed video about this unicorn.

F40! Can’t wait for that review.

That sound is just so nostalgic to my ears; I loved riding in my parents' 80s 911s as a kid just for the sound in the cabin alone. It's such a howl!

Utterly jaw dropping, looks the part, sounds the part , back when engineering and stripped out limited edition specials weren't just a marketing gimmick. You can certainly tell why these are worth the price of a small caribbean island . I want one . !! 👍 👍 👏 👏

1:56 Funnily enough, in the spirit of the name confusion with the 993 GT(2), that Viper was actually called the Viper GT2, not the GTS-R. The "GTS-R" badges on the car were meant to pay tribute to the actual GTS-R race car, and Dodge confused the hell out of everybody by doing that.

Harry teasing us with a glimpse of an F40 too.

Back from when fast cars were still driven by the person at the steering wheel and not the CPU. Thanks for taking us on another amazing ride Harry

I really really never get why people give Harry a thumb down

"beautifully chosen ratios, but you wouldn't expect anything else from Porsche" Yeah, wouldn't that be nice. Sincerely Boxster and Cayman

993 GT2 is literally my all time favorite 911! I'm very pleased to see such a thorough and professional review!

When the hammer drops at 11:24 everything starts to go blurry, it's amazing they let Porsche customers buy this car from the factory. It's got the same power/weight as my 991.1 GT3 and this car was on the road almost 20 years ago. Amazing! Thanks, Harry.

Wow, holy grail 993 review, and the prospect of an f40 review also 😱

The radio/cassette is only used while standing in the traffic jam on the german autobahn... Thank you for sharing this experience, driving this rare 911, with us!

As a general car enthusiast this channel is gold, I’ll probably never come within spitting distance of one of these mighty machines let alone actually driving one but the way Harry delivers his content makes you feel part of it, like you’re sat in the passenger seat. Thank you Harry.

I would love to see you get the Viper GTS R back for a review! I'm on my 7th Viper and never knew about that particular test you all did at EVO. I will be searching the web for issue #3 now. Those 2 cars together at Lemans are legendary.

This video took me all the way back to my air-cooled 911 Turbo. The sounds, the look of the interior, the seats, the dashboard, the quality of the craftsmanship, It’s been over 20 years and I can still feel it all right now. Unruly little hellion that it was, I can still remember how it felt lighting up that turbo on a twisty stretch of road near my home. What a magnificent machine that can leave you with such an impression for so long.

I’ve owned several 911’s and I miss my ‘96 Carrera 4 the most. It was the pinnacle of 911 evolution, and worked as well as a daily driver as it did on the track. Great video, well done.

It doesn't get any better than a well kept 993, just a stunning ageing example of a true legend, love my 993 Turbo S, not quite as nice as what you've got there Harry, Rj in Oz

It's cool to hear both Harry and Chris Harris (on the 964 Turbo 3.6) say turbolag was and is exciting! I totally agree!

Sunday with a gin and tonic and Harry at the wheel. This one’s a classic and Harry waxed positively poetic. Thanks, Bud, for sharing your fun. Cheers from the ranch in NC.

993 is the best looking Porsche ever made. Period. It's the pinnacle of the brand that can never be duplicated.

Harry’s enjoyment and passion is infectious and a joy to watch 👍

I had a 993 RS in the same colour as this. Such a special car. Watching this made me very emotional!

Wow..what a car! Thank you for sharing it with us Harry. I for one really appreciate it.

This is the car that made me fall in love with the Porsche 911. I was 12 when I attended a race on one of Bucharest's airports in the 90s. Most of the cars were hillclimb machines and one of them one a red 911 GT2 with the biggest wing on the back. The sheer width of that care was awe inspiring! Wide arches, wide wing and wide slick tires. And the noise, the noise made people gather around whenever they started that thing. thought it was the coolest car ever! I still think it is!

Liked the video straight away. This and the 964 Turbo are my all time favourite 911's

Incredible video! Very thnakful for having an opportunity to see this video!

These cars are masterpieces. By far my favourite air cooled 911.

A great review H, a slight shame this example was to "German dentist" spec with the comfort seats, airbags, electric windows & radio? The GT2 has solid rear subframe mounts and front control arms, which are even more severe than those fitted to the RS variant, hence enhanced steering responses.

One of the best cars ever made. Every time i see a Porsche GT product, it reminds me of how capable this company really is. They guys from Stuttgart know how to make proper cars. Keep it up by making these exceptional videos!

This is without question….THE BEST LOOKING PORSCHE of all time.🙏🏽

De-limit sign. A load of throttle. Harry gives the most English review of turbo kicking in “My goodness me” Love you mate 😊

Thanks Harry for this upload My all time favourite car would have this over any other car

Issue 3 of evo was my first I think as a teenager.. The GT2 was so exotic even as a familiar 911 shape. Going from reading autocar and other magazines that had to review boring stuff, discovering evo was real fuel to my love of cars back then.. Thanks again Harry for making it happen!

I do like the old 911 body shape. Back from when Porsches were small enough to thread down a country road like a rat up a drainpipe!

Love that over the shoulder shot. Can see the huge intakes in the wing mirror!

Harry. I remember the "GT2" at Le Mans, with a lot of the independent driveres/garagists, driving this baby. SHe was never the fastest, but there was always a GT2 993 spitting flames each time it changed gears. I love this one.

The 993 is so special. Wonderful video.

This brings back great memories of early 911 variants I drove and loved. To me, that size and shape were perfect, and that wonderful engine whine was all the music one needed. My dreams were filled with it. I especially loved the cars with fully manual steering. Once you learned the car, you developed a sense of knowing exactly what each tire and wheel were doing. You could sense when the oil reached operating temperature and the thermostat opened. Today, I’ve moved on to motorcycles for that visceral involvement in coaxing a beautifully designed and engineered mechanical wonder along my favorite roads.

Engineering at it`s best. Thank you for doing this video.

Wonderful car. No one quite knows how to fill out a wheel arch like Porsche does. The wheel size, the dish of the wheel and the tyre profile are utterly perfect

I see the twinkeling in your eyes when you hit the gas pedal... I can tell, you're a happy man in that Porche ! I would be happy too if I was in your place... ;-)

That Silver-colored Porsche 993 GT2 sounds absolutely wonderful and it is a magnificent creation.

Harry, your old red one is back up for sale, had 30k spent on it...if you wanted it back!

thank you Harry. I would cry being in the presence of this car

Harry....you are the best, because your videos are totally authentic. Most Porsche owners have a special and connecting DNA because the facial expressions of joy are always the same, when they recognize how much pleasure the act of driving provides. Any supporter of self-driving auto technology will never be able to experience this.......

2:30 are we going to talk about the F40?

It looks like a restomod of an early 911 turbo. That's why I think it looks so cool.

Well this is certainly an event. Thank you for your review. A singular and amazing machine indeed.

One of your best episodes, Harry. I watch for your knowledge of the cars, their history, the relationships, the characters and for your personal history with all of them. I watch for your enthusiasm - which you convey in part with wonderful language and further with a whole package of expressions and movement that say “I don’t know why, I just do!” Of course, watching your reaction in the driving segments should not be missed. My favorite episode is the 911 Turbo followed by your grandson saying it somewhat better than you on that day. Gotta jump into my 2013 Boxster S and make it sing. Thank you.

What a phenomenal car and fantastic review. Cars like this will never be built again and its so nice to see these driven. Thanks for letting us live vicariously though you.

What a thrilling car to drive. Love the 993 in any form. 🙏👏👏👏👏

Even with its flared bolt on arches and big wing the 993 still looks tiny and perfectly proportioned and just shows how large the 911 has become with the current gen 992. What a beautiful machine! But as Harry says “it’s such a shame they are so rare” because I suspect many won’t ever find their way onto roads or certainly driven as intended so thank you for allowing us to experience the car with your insightful video 👍

Erm... you have an F40 appeared in your garage?!

This is probably the best car review I have ever seen

I'm taking today off, for homologation reasons.

Your enthusiasm comes across loud and clear, Harry. The 993 specials are my favorites. A lot of nostalgia for the simple, analog experience.

The 993 turbo was the first car that I had ever noticed on the street and fell in love. Mind you I was near 30. Before then I don’t remember ever seeing a car that I thought was amazing.

I can't get excited about modern Porsches, but I do like the 993.

Thank you so much for this video! For those of us who don’t have access to millions of dollars or friends with the rarest of the rare, this is the next best thing. Watching a true enthusiast enjoy a truly amazing car.

This one does not take prisoners. Reminds me of the orignal turbo, do not apply if you a are of a nervous disposition. Brilliant.

To have that door latch ting as the notification for new messages....heaven

No longer a ‘widow maker’? It’s interesting how perspectives on cars change over time. The GT2 wasn’t universally praised at launch but now it looks and sounds utterly wonderful. Thanks so much for this video Harry. Your enthusiasm reflects mine and many of your viewers: these reviews are a joy to watch.

Cheeky Harry, showing and not showing a F40

What a stunning car. This is unquestionably my favorite Porsche design and maybe even car ever made. Stunning! Great review as always Harry! Cheers

What a wonderful car. One of the coolest ever. Imagine a road trip down to Le Mans, taking the back roads, perhaps with a pal in their GTS-R. Motoring daydreams don't get much more evocative.

best porsche made! i still have issue 3 of Evo magazine from 1998 when you tested it

Incredible to think all that performance comes in a packaged less than 200 lbs heavier than my much-missed 1978 911 Targa.

I remember the review of the red 992. You had your grandson in the back seat. Noisy Porsche! I loved it.

I will never be lucky enough to drive a car such as this,but really enjoy watching Harry’s enthusiastic enjoyment on our behalf

I was lucky enough to see a white one in California years ago at a car meet as it was leaving. I didn't know jack about Porsches then but always remembered how this looked. So low to the ground, the front fascia, widened arches(seemingly rivited ) and that ducktail spoiler. I didn't get to hear it as he was at a stop as I and others were crossing. it's been saved in my memory since! Damn I should've known these were $$$

One of the most beautiful OEM wheels ever created.

Harry is a real hero to send a £1M+ Porsche down a country lane like that

I enjoyed this video as much for Harry’s total giddy demeanour at getting behind the wheel of one of his favourite cars, so infectious! Chapeau 👏

I've never seen one in person, but the tail is pretty distinguishing. What a great car.

Only 4381 miles on the clock, what an example! Stunning

What a car, probably one of the most beautiful 911 ever produced!

What a gorgeous looking car !I absolutely love it ,great review again Harry !

The white gauges lead the fashion and into the Audi RS2 and S2 white gauges, complimenting the front brake ducts, mirrors, indicators etc 👍

The car eqivelant of crazy 2 stroke motorbike with that powerband banging in!

The only 911 I'd ever want in my imaginary collection. Gorgeous looking thing.

Love the 993 such a beautiful car

Mad to see a car that actually fits uk roads!! Most modern cars can barely fit between the lines! Size looks so right on the road

AAAhhh, drove one for a few weeks in 1998/99 and up to today is the car which impressed me the most. It was a tuned one by roock, it had around 800 HP and that thing took off like nothing else i dare to say up to well the newest fastest supercars. The first few days i was driving it i got neck problems aka neck muscle inflammation, what a beautiful pain

Tremont wheels makes the closest reps for the Speedline wheels if anyone is curious.. they are based out of France but ship worldwide(for the most part). They recently came out with a similar gray center as an option.

The 993 with those Speedline wheels is hands down the best looking 911.

Just love the sound of the air cooled 911

Hey Harry, Sell all the other cars you have & just have that! You were so happy & buzzing driving that!! Top video!

The holy grail of 911s!

Loved this car for years. For me its the best looking car in history. I had the pleasure of owning a 3.2 Carrara sport 1989 loved it until i drove the 993 . My Porsche days are sadly over , but if i won the lottery the 993 gt would be probably the first thing i would buy... your a very lucky guy to drive this ...

Perhaps the greatest 911

Panerai on the left.. apple watch on the right. Harry does what he wants. Great video!

Great video Harry. Love these 90s Air-cooled 911s Going to a Porsche event at Brands hatch in September can't wait ❤️

Thanks for showing this GEM

Oh wow! My favorite car ever! Thanks, Harry!:)

I kept going for the Like button and I had already hit it. Awesome car and video.

Harry on boost 😁 Epic. I really didn't want that video to finish..
