    You can tell the difference between a car influencer and someone who just loves real world use from their cars. Harry, I agree entirely although I'd be interested in your opinion on the touring minus roll cage and wing. Less downforce and rigidity has got to be some improvement. Jams May was also right, the Nurburgring makes good track cars, but poor road cars
  • I bloody knew it was you filming! I'm in the last van at 20:02 šŸ˜‚ Also spotted JayEmm stood on a corner down the road from there

    Some YouTubers have lambos and no knowledge about cars and content turned toward them showing off. They have millions of views. Harry posting incredible content and feedback for years, on amazing cars . This man has an incredible knowledge and is very honest in his reviews and has only half a million followers. I don't understand people .
  • God what a brilliant review, no fuss, straight to the point. Harryā€™s one of the best if not the best today. Please donā€™t miss the last 10 seconds. What an ending!!

    Youā€™re a legend Harry, thanks for this honest review on the 992 GT3. Being based in the UK, and owning a 981 GT4ā€¦ like you, 95% of my driving is on UK roads. The car has to suit the occasion, and I totally get your well expressed thoughts in this video. Merry XMAS!

    Possible to get a full review of the 997.2 GT3 as sort of a "modern classic" and how it feels/drives compared to current cars?
  • Nice to see a genuine road review! The 992 is growing on me but I still prefer the 991 visually for sure!
  • Given it can sometimes seem obligatory to award an instant five stars to anything that comes out of Weissach, really glad to hear Harry's candour in this video about the car's shortcomings on rural British roads. Glorious though that powerplant sounds!
  • The GT3 is all about the engine and manual gearbox. I must admit this is the first review I have seen where it's been driven on ordinary roads. In Australia with it's coarse chip bitumen and heavily cambered roads this would be a nightmare. Condensation inside the lights on a Porsche? Can't open the engine cover? Thanks Harry for the excellent review.

    Love this man's clear headed assessment. As someone who own's 2 Porsches, the Gt-3 is way too stiff and noisy for the average driver. Maybe it's great for the track, but it's really annoying on the road. And we have really good roads in Colorado. But even on good roads, you can't hear your self think, let alone answer a phone call.

    Finally a honest review. Most journalists are too scared to mention 911 dislikes.

    Thank you for this provably accurate and brutally honest review of the 992 GT3. Your exposure of the 992 GT3 ridiculously low ground clearance due to the frames around the newly designed air flow vents successfully REDUCES the ground clearance by more than 1 inch from the already extremely low 991.2 GT3 RS. With only a 3" ground clearance, this low ground clearance seriously gives me second thoughts about owning a 992 GT3. The 3" ground clearance is absolutely un-drivable in any US city. That restaurant driveway would have been unnavigable even if the car had the front lift system! The hydrolic lift system only adds another 1" to the ground clearance. Prospective GT3 and GT3 RS owners should see this as a huge deal breaker. The other setbacks including the steering wheel movements and the noise, to me those are part of the experience of driving a more track focused model and I would enjoy that as part of the intense, visceral experience. But the 3" ground clearance issue is a huge deal breaker unless the front lift system adds at least 2" instead of 1". What are your thoughts on this?
  • @liamcooke8426
    The speed at which the car kicked down and took off is truly frightening
  • @chriswood6520
    There's a reason Porsche wanted you to test drive it on track, Harry. Another great video and review, many thanks and Happy Christmas!
  • Harry still the main man , a presenter who knows what heā€™s talking about, never biased, just honest appraisals.
  • @royd72
    I recently sold my 991.1 RS and deposited on a Turbo S, as like you I mainly do road driving I am really pleased to hear your praise for the Turbo S
  • @aasimyousaf2455
    Thank you for offering such a different perspective from all the other GT3 reviews out there. This car is clearly an absolute juggernaut on track but is quite heavily flawed as a road car
  • @goodfest007
    Have we forgotten cars are meant to be used on roads not tracks and meant to be attainable without special permissionšŸ™ As a car nut I find myself being turned off, the new breed of super cars and reminds me why I still love my 997 and 987.

    Dear Harry, You are the pinnacle of any honest review of a beautiful vehicle šŸ™šŸ™Œ
