    I'd love to see a half-hour video with Porcshe explaining how they can charge nearly £600 to paint callipers black instead of red.

    Props to Porsche for sticking with the manual gearbox and remembering there’s much more to driving than simply going fast.

    It wouldn't be a relaxing Sunday afternoon without a Harry's garage video 👍
  • @KAM-666
    I couldn’t afford the list of upgrades on this car, let alone the petrol, notwithstanding , this is a fabulous insight into a manual Porsche with Harry’s signature commentary 👏👏
  • @JoeAchilles1
    Been looking forward to this one! Fallen in love with OPR 911 over the past 8 days and 2,000 miles, just wish Porsche would sell me one!
  • @ACKWV
    That’s a beautiful colour combination. Flies under the radar. Stunning. Properly on my list, not that I’ll be able to get one for the right money!

    As a young kid, I will never forget seeing a 356 convertible quickly accelerating up the hill from our yaughtclub. I was mesmerized. Years later, my 25-year-old dream came true when I bought a used 997.1 Carrera S in Speed Yellow with a 6-speed transmission .. With a few mods, it ran and sounded just like today's cup cars. This reviewed car reminds me of my 911 in many, ways. Top speed on it was an honest 175 mph @ 7000rpm (exactly) in 6th gear. Thanks for the ride down memory lane...

    "Now the great thing about GT3 992 for is that you can buy..." yeah, nah Harry. The rest of us non motoring journalist civilians can't get an allocation for Porsche GT cars.

    Harry, if you get a chance, drive a 992 Touring that’s been fettled by the chaps at Center Gravity. You’ll be amazed at the improvement on British B roads. I took mine there on the recommendation of a friend having had it for a month in which the bump steer (or tram-lining) tried to drag me into several hedge rows. Some slight tweaks to camber and roll bar stiffness have transformed it onto something far more suited to our roads.
  • Brilliant review as ever! How does it compare in the real world against the manual GTS you tested?
  • @Schuey_M
    How do you compare it to the recent manual 992 GTS you drove Harry?
  • Great video as usual Harry. I was thinking that if they run the same tyres and suspension, yet the Touring feels softer, could it be down to it having no cage in it. Surely, the shell can't be as stiff and the acoustics of having no cage reverberating noise around , must contribute to that impression of the softness change? Anyway, just something to think about. Cheers 👍👍

    It is a GT3 after all, so it's inevitable it'll be lively. If you're after an easy drive, buy an S Class. Great review and excellent spec on that car, bar the seats.
  • The black callipers are bizarre. My Boxster has black callipers because I wasn’t prepared to spend hundreds of pounds for red ones. Porsche win every way.
  • @brett22x
    Was it slightly softer because the tyre pressures were at 25/27
  • @6rimR3ap3r
    You have to wonder how a company like Porsche ends up with that gear lever vs cupholder situation o_O
  • @MrKumarian
    The Gt3 touring retains all of the sound deadening in the rear, the non touring has none. That will be the reason for the noise difference :)
  • @johnl.7582
    It would be interesting to measure the distance between door cards on various models of 911 to see how much of the ever growing width is caused by bodywork and crash structures vs interior space.

    Will you be getting a GR86 in? Would love to hear you opinion
