' 2014 / 2015 Porsche 911 GT3 (991.1) ' Test Drive & Review - TheGetawayer
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
I finally review the new 2014 Porsche 911 GT3 (991). Can it match the driving experience of the old 997 GT3 and does it still feel like a proper GT3 ? Here are my indebth impressions...

Ha ha, 5 people don't like this review... they must hate that awesome 9,000 RPM screaming 3.8, amazing handling and instant gear shifts. Good for them!

The GTR was mine, now I have one. My next car will be the GT3.
The best independent review series by far. Clear commentary, and beautifully framed driving shots which are long enough to appreciate the car. Keep up the great work!

Brian Westfield Thank you very much Brian ! I'm very happy to get such postive feedback !
Another awesome review Guido! Really loved your excitement, passion and enthusiasm in this review Guido! I think as much as I love the Targa, this GT3 is still my favorite modern Porsche. That sweet engine going all the way to 9,000 rpm is mind blowing and sounds so good. The car looks amazing to me too, and I really like that it sounds like it's more comfortable than the previous GT3. Your comments towards the end about making the GT3 better by changing it was really profound and totally makes sense. You're right, I think the 997 GT3 is probably the ultimate manual 911, and I think PDK is really the only way to truly take it to the next level. Thanks for the great review!
one of the most beautiful cars you can buy, and possibly the best handling sports car on the planet..loved this.
Just watching the first couple seconds with the GT3 pulling up had me grinning from ear to ear. Its just such an awesome machine.

Nitrotech23 Thanks ! Glad I was able to capture that on video :)
Last year, I bought a low mileage 2003 996 GT3 RS, and I love it. Bought it from a Porsche dealer, with full service history, together with modified intake/inlet manifold, exhaust headers, wheels and tyres Dyno says I have 528Hp at the crank with 485 at the wheels. I'm saving up my pennies to replace all the discs/calipers with colour coded (monza red) units. I'll send in some photo's when it's all done. N.
I was so excited for this review, that I had to save it until I had the time to watch it and rewatch it with complete focus. This is the best review you have ever done, not to say the others are anything else than exceptional. I love it. This car is just...

Drove the car yesterday, and I 100% agree Getawayer, with every single thing you said about the car and your conclusion in this clip. Hats off to Preuninger, what they did is magic. I couldn't believe how the car and engine and transmission felt. How bulletproof it felt. How MANIC and savage, yet so refined and state-of-the-art technical. I have no adequate words of how superlative this machine is. Forget money, there is nobody that makes cars like Porsche Motorsport.

Last October I went to Porsche's Experience Center in Atlanta. We finished driving all the cars and then they brought out the GT4 and the GT3 RS for us to ride as passengers in, and the drivers were professionals. WOW. The GT4 was amazing but the RS was another level. The cornering grip was just ... you guys wouldn't believe. The engine was of course stronger than the GT3 we had driving around that morning ourselves, but man, the traction of the RS ... holy hell! :)

Very interesting review my friend. Clearly the GT3 is the most driver focused car in the range but do you think it would work as a daily driver? Next year I plan to switch the M4 back to a 991 and I have not considered a GT3 because it just seems to harsh to use as a daily driver. What are your thoughts?

I'm not sure if you are still looking however if you are then purchase a Porsche Carrera 4 GTS, it's just like a GT3 but with more daily usability and it's offered in a 7 speed manual, if you have already replaced your M4 what did you buy?

Hi Nick, I know this answer is 3 years late and I think you already bought a regular 991 already. But since that one should be getting old now and I'm sure you are looking for something new. So I'd like to encourage you to get a GT3 (if you can get one) As a daily you might think about the seats (take the adjustable ones) and maybe about the rollcage if you want to put your dog somewhere. But other than that take the damn thing! It is way more exciting than the GTS. Way more!!! The GTS is a boring car in comparison. But if you have balls of football-size there is no other car for you.
Commenting only 8yrs after this was published...😄 But, one of the best GT3 reviews ever, well worth of coming back to it from time to time, just honest driving experience with beautiful driving and sound shots. Extremely well done! 👏🏼👏🏼🔝

But after the first test was cancled in March because of those engine problems, it just took a while until the press cars were back on the road ( customer cars had priority ). I'm very proud I finally had the chance to review my dreamcar ( at least on sale today ) and it didn't disappoirnt :) Greetings from germany, Guido

Yes, I did get my 991 GT3 with PDK and its a step up from 997 which no question about it, is an amazing car. The new 991 Engine /PDK package wakes me up, it makes me feel 16 again (go-karting) its manic and savage, its priceless.
I am happy that my guess was wrong. It's a GT3! Congratulations that you finally got this car. I enjoyed this review very much. Keep up with your good work!

lam neth You know, nothing feels like a manual and I think we can agree on the fact that the 997 GT3 in all its variations is the best manual car ever made...I tried to be as honest about this in this video as possible and I hope that comes across...But I'm just as honest about the GT3's PDK. Please don't compare it to any other flappy paddle and not even the normal 991 PDK ! It feels different in so many ways, from driving off up to those insane shifts at the 9000 rpm redline. It is a wonderful experience. Try to test drive it and I would love to hear what you think about it. Greetings, Guido / TheGetawayer
Great review, great channel and, most importantly, great reviewer! After having followed your reviews for months I decided to switch to my first Porsche. It's not a 911 yet and it's not petrol, mainly beacause of my actual lifestyle and the ammount of km I have to cover every week. But I'll get to a proper 911 sooner or later. For the moment I'll enjoy the Porsche brand with my new Macan S Diesel which is due to the dealership in less than 15 days and I can't wait! Thanks again for your reviews that keep my dream alive! All the support from Italy boss!!
