A GT3 is fun even at low speeds. It is engaging, full of feel and very sharp. You don't have to beat it to enjoy it. Plus the 991.2s have a ton of torque so they absolutely do not feel slow around town.

On top of that yes it is obviously very fast but you can definitely use it on the street.

My friend's 750 Mclaren on the other hand? Stupid fast my god what a car but its really just so god damn fast. That car is hard to use on the street but a GT3 while is still too fast for the street, it can be done selectively to blast to 130-140 when the road is clear in Mexico

I just took the morning off for one last blast before winter storing in a humble 997 C2S cab with all of 385 HP and cannot FATHOM what I do with another 100+ HP.

500+ HP on 3100 lbs is indeed very fast but the way a GT3 drives is what I enjoy the most about it. The car is so precise in everything it does and feels alive.

Speaking of the 25's Porsche is milking every last drop out of the 4.0L motor at this point and I think the car enters a slippery slope approaching $250-275K+. They are clearly not developing the motor anymore as it uses the borrowed FD from the ST, cams from the RS and now has 4 cats! It's a real shame the environmental regulations have this motor bottled up to the point that despite these improvements the 992.2's make the same power as the 991.2's and less torque!



They will sell all of the new ones they make, but I think the 991.2's are the sweet spot as they got the bullet proof motor lifted from the cup cars, classic look, apple car play and a rear camera but still has tactile buttons and some old school feel. It's the sweet spot for me. Or if you have $40K more and want a double wishbone front, the 992.1's are brilliant too and even better on track.
