The format of this video is so much more enjoyable and immersive than most KZread car reviews. The bits where you get to see (and hear) the driving from cockpit without any cuts or interruptions is really great. Nicely done!

Both extremely track-focused cars, but I don't think paying twice as much for the Ferrari is worth it. I've test driven a 911 GT3 and it is spectacular. I love the way they have made it so that pulling both paddles back at the same time is like putting the clutch in, and letting go is like dropping the clutch, for a little Hooligan fun, when on other paddle shift cars doing so would just put the car into neutral. I'm surprised other car makers haven't adopted such a feature. And they fixed the stick so it operates like an actual sequential 'box, pull back for an upshift and push forward for a downshift. I think the Ferrari is for those with a little more expendable income and who want to be able to have fun during a track day, then clean the thing up, and have the valet choose to park it at the front of a fancy restaurant. I've amassed quite a bit of disposable income to treat myself to a nice machine after 30 years in the aerospace biz, and the new Porsche 911 GT3 is definitely on my short list.

MrColdwatercanyon Nice choice. I hope you're having a great time with it. But yeah, it's on my short list. At the top though is an AMG in-house customized SLS. I've called and they can do it. Basically all the go-fast bits from a Black Series (the upgraded motor, the lighter backbone, suspension, titanium exhaust, etc.) but with none of the aero (like the boy-racer looking fixed mini GT3 racing rear wing). So it would look like a "regular" SLS AMG gullwing car, with all of it's gorgeous lines that are a near perfect modern day interpretation of the 300SL gullwing door cars of the '50s, but a Black Series underneath the bodywork. I'd go silver with a red interior, and black or steel-look brake calipers instead of those tacky yellow ones. Also on the list is a BMW i8. Incredible car. A hybrid sportscar that can get to 60 mph in 3.8 seconds, and do the 1/4 mile in the 12s. I really like the idea of owning an i8. I'd have a high performance hybrid, so I'd be doing my part for the Earth (it only emits 50g of CO2/kilometer and an average human being emits 50g of CO2 with 50 breaths!), and have a car that has the styling of a car from 25 years from now, and that could hold it's own during a track day. It is such a tough decision!

MrColdwatercanyon ***** To answer MrColdwater first, yup, it would cost quite a bit over $200k, but it would be a one of a kind. To answer Amir, with the money I've amassed, I've set the limit at $300k for my mechanical treat, so if I wanted the Ferrari, I'd buy it. But I don't. I like the looks of a regular 458 more anyway. The lower front fascia on the Speciale is basically the same one from the 430 Scuderia. And even being the Speciale, it still just looks like the many 458s I've seen at car shows. I want something unique, thus, the custom SLS option or the i8, and the 911 GT3 is unique in it's own little way. No more "scaffolding" as Top Gear called it visible, the nice touches they made to the way the gearbox works. It's a great car. I wonder what the GT2 is going to be like.

i don't agree on the Ferrari being the winner and i am not talking bad about it, but Porsche has always been on top of everybody on track and more and with smaller engines, that is called perfection

Now let's hear all the Porsche fanboys cry out about "when the gt3 rs comes out, it'll kick the Ferrari's ass" but ever since the very beginning the rs is only ever so slightly better than the normal gt3, so in truth instead of kicking the Ferraris ass, it'll be licking the Ferraris ass!

Besides, Jeremy hates Porsches, he is bias towards Ferraris. Look at the 430 scud and 997.2 GT3 rs prices, GT 3 appreciated, and scud keeps dropping. 991 prices are crazy high and 458 is dropping to GT3 territory already. I admit the 360cs is a monster tho.

For me the winner is in the blue corner the amazing 911 GT3.

That Porsche is a very good sports car and good value. But as with everything in life there is a TOP version of everything. When it comes to sports cars the best ones are always Ferrari. Hence the price. You can argue why a suit costs $3000 and if it's so much better than a $1000 suit. People who can afford the expensive version of things will tell you it's worth it. The ones who can't afford it will always tell you no, it's not, and they got thousands of reasons why :)

You can always go a step or 2 down. You get a desent car, suit or house but it's simply not the best. Again, Porsche makes very good cars but it's a myth created by themselves that they make the best cars. Compared with Ferrari they are second best. And that is a fact. Doesn't matter if Porsche makes a car twice as fast. Corvette makes also very fast cars and their fans think it's a better car than Porsche because it's faster for half the price. You see how your logic is wrong?

***** If any car is over priced its Porsche. They make the highest profit per sold car in the world. In most cases most expensive is the best, they just tell the opposite to people to make them think the wealthy are fooled into buying necessary expensive stuff the the common man can't afford. And there is no single reason a GT3 should cost double a Corvette. Understand your faulty reasoning? Things get exponentially more expensive as you try to improve the last bits. That is why the price goes up so much by small improvements. But the sum of the end product is worth it.

***** I totally understand the allure of ferrari. As I always say, Porsche is respected for it's tech but Ferrari is loved. Still, when it comes to tech Ferraris is second to none. Their engine in Speciale has the highest hp output than any NA engine in the world (for sports cars). Despite them being small they still create some impressive tech. For example, i thought 918 had the highest tech of the 3 super cars until I saw how the LaF was built. It really has gone around lately that somehow Porsche makes magic cars. Yes they are very nice cars but it's not like nobody else can make as good cars as Porsche. And the last 10-15 year Ferrari cars have been untouchable. They are simply the the best according to all test drivers who test all kind of cars. Some part of the price is the premium and exclusivity but the most is for the actual car.

I'd love to own one soon.

Him reading off the revs while starting in second gear at 8:18 was honestly extremely exciting just for me to watch.

I love this review. The way the reviewer laughed when he got on the gas on the Speciale was the same way I reacted when I stepped on it after picking up my 458.

Love when he blasts down the straights and yells the revs, really exciting!

Wow! He is the first person who at least tried to pronounce "speciale" correctly. Thanks!

Ferrari cannot hold a candle to Porsche. The 911 GT3 has 125hp less and is heavier than the 458 Speciale but is only 0.2 seconds slower on the Sachsenring. The 911 Turbo S has 45hp less and is much heavier than the 458 Speciale but is 0.3 faster on the Sachsenring. So, Ferraris track weapon cannot even beat Porsches plush gran turismo.

I agree with earlier comments about to fully test both cars it takes more than winding the engine out to 9k. Let's see there ultimate balance at 10/10's on the track. Both machines have track dna. Do a follow up comparo.

Can someone educate me about "the rear wheels doing some of the steering too" when they were talking about the GT3 in the beginning?

Speciale for me over every 901. Thanks.

With almost 130hp less, Porsche 911 GT3 for the win! ;-)

I was sold , so got a 458 italia and a Gt3, love em both and can't stop driving them

Looking forward to this

You have to put this in perspective. I have driven 911's for years and currently own three: 1984 Carrera which I bought new in May 1984; 2011 GT3 RS4 which I bought new for 215K$ three years ago and consider myself fortunate to have found it; and 2013 911 turbo which I bought new two years ago for 155K$. The 458 Especiale is very difficult to find. I did find one at a dealer here in Houston that is being driven by another customer who is awaiting delivery of a La Ferrari. The dealer will sell this one to me for MSRP of 368K$ Plus a 10% premium for a total cost of about 405 K$. There is no reduction in price to reflect the fact that this is a used, even if lightly, car. The car has almost 100 K$ worth of options some of which I have not the foggiest of their purpose. I am having a lot of trouble justifying the purchase of the Especialle. To compare the GT3 to the 458 Especiale is absurd. When and if a 991 GT3 RS is introduced, it will most likely compare more favorably with the Especiale. But most people who purchase Ferraris (of which only about 7000 are produced each year) do not purchase them for their performance; they purchase them because they are Ferraris.

And I don't want to hear anything about how rear engine cars are inherently worse than mid engined ones. Tell that to an F1 driver. More mass and proportionally wider tires in the rear make the force of friction and resulting centripetal acceleration (how many lateral Gs it can pull) the rear of the car can produce astronomically high.

Nice review - both are awesome cars.

CARmagazineTV I love it Ferrari 458 SPECIALE!!!

GT3 couldn't even beat a regular 458...

you couldn't say anything about lap times and switched to handling, looks and sounds?

Thank you, it's good to see these 2 beasts head to head, i don't know how people can prefer one to another, F40 vs 959, come on guys, this is an eternal battle, I wish one day day i'll make enough money to buy them both

The rear wing on the GT3 is an option??

Porsche GT3 for me, it's a much more appealing car. I find the 458 Ferrari boring and rather ugly and doesn't sound very good. I know it's much more expensive but I'd rather get a Ferrari 599 GTO or FF. Only question is, which car caught on fire first?

Ferrari is better than Porsche. The name, the cars, the heritage and they have greater success on track. I used to hate 911s and Porsches but now i see them in a whole new light but they still aren't ferraris! How many ferraris do you see compared to a porsche? How many Porsches sound better than a Ferrari? How many Porsches make you feel as special as a Ferrari does. Exactly and don't bring prices and practicality into this because first, if your think about prices than your on a budget and probably can't afford these and secondly, you aren't going to be lugging the whole family around the country are you? Well not in one of these. They are for driving pleasure and Ferrari does it better. End of story.

Cole Jones Fanboy detected. Porsche is the most successful and prestigious brand in motorsports. What history are you talking about? LeMans is the father of RACING and Porsche are to LeMans what Ferrari are to F1. Stop with this nonsense Ferrari make you feel special. Oh wait you probably have never driven a Ferrari :)

Cole Jones Ferrari is a very good car, but look how much money they need to build a car that isn´t really much better then the GT3, and it isn´t better then the GT3RS, the RS is still much cheaper then the Ferrari and look who won LeMans this year, Porsche AGAIN. End of story.

***** Ferrari's make an artificial sound? You're a fucking idiot. LOL the irony... The fact that you're claiming that Ferrari's have a fake sound and then your profile picture is a BMW logo and the fact that BMW use speakers to enhance the car's sound... Pathetic. And no, not everyone knows Ferrari's have fake sounds, because they aren't such idiots like you. Unlike you, everyone's driven one. Ferrari's and Porsche's have the most natural sound of any car ever. End. Sad that BMW and Mercedes have to resort to exhaust tuning or speakers to get the same sound...

The Ferrari looks great, sounds great, runs great, BUT the shop time and cost is scary. The maintenance (not just the recommended maintenance but what they actually require ) is extremely costly and there is a LOT of it. The Porsche is bloody well near maintenance free but for 10K checks and oil changes, and the record supports that!

They never discuss colour in these comparisons. It's sooo important and affects mood. I say retest but include colour in the conversation otherwise all those numbers about horsepower and acceleration are boooorrriing! Also, interiors!

I love both cars, I never really cared for the 360 Stradale or 430 Scuderia, but the 458 just the basic drew my attention since day one, the lines the curves the way it sits was beautiful and still is. With the Speciale I kinda got disappointed when I saw they split the front end ( its grown on me ) and adding a lot of gills but stll the car is gorgeous with that being said I will still take the 911 over it. I just love the Porsche so much in general and wouldn't take no car over it. Its a drivers car period.

The 458 S is better. All wheel steering is an old version but the "slide angle control" is awesome and cutting edge

ferrari forever the best car!!!!!! porsche horrible car shit!!!

You can never really compare these two cars, but what you can say is that they do exactly what they were designed to do to perfection. Neither car misses the mark, and you really can't say a a single dollar would be wasted when purchasing either of these two cars.... but thats just my opinion

That porche is so damn fresh even the cow at 2:10 is staring at it.

The Speciale is the 'RS' version, so it should be compared to the upcoming GT3 RS. THAT is the track version of the GT3. The GT3 may be good on the track, but other then most people believe, it is NOT a trackday toy like the Speciale, it is intended to be a usable road (sports-) car. Compare the normal 458 to the GT3 and the GT3 would be faster.

Better reliability, resale value, usability, better economy, lower service costs, half the price - GT3. I love Ferrari, but that is a track car and would be a pain to use everyday on roads. If I was lucky enough to be able to afford a 911 it would be a 4S.

OMG - Speciale should be vs. GT3 RS!

great review and great presenter

I can just imagine getting a GT3 with heightened suspension, fatter wheels and have them pushed out a bit, roll cage and high beam lights on the hood and roof and take it bush bashing in the Australian outback. But I'm poor, so I'll just stick with Dirt and Forza on the XBox.

Of course, the real comparison would be against the soon to be revealed 991 GT3 RS. That will be a much closer battle.

Nice topic!

How about a rematch when the GT3 RS is relased?

if you look at 8:15, that alone shows why manuals are on the way out

Yellow should be very attractive and shiny when it's running fast on the street.

Where was this shot??

what about waiting for the 991 GT3 RS?

how can everyday usability be an argument in battle between supercars builded to be raced on track? You should have compared with regular 458.

Thanks guys for video, where is the country in video??

both are great cars, I actually don't see a clear winner. Got to love both of them!

Because I'm OCD... @ 3:25 - the finger prints on the window. Sickening

2:08 that lamb is just "like the fuck is that thing?"

This isn't a very good comparison rather compare normal 458 vs gt3 or wait till gt3 rs to come. Or better yet wait till gt2 rs to come out and then you have your self a comparison, this time around 458 won't stand a chance against 911 since gt3 is already so close in track times to 458 speciale, even beating it on shorter tracks.

i think you should compare the gt3 with the 458 and the gt3 RS with the speciale

I drove a lot of powerful cars and I can say first hand they are just terrifying! I rather go for the GT3 than anything else as you can feel absolute confidence in it's agility. Not to say others are bad. Just that I hate to be scared shitless just driving to a diner.

Still love the 458 speciale it seems much so comfortable, as he dirves and the enjoyment it gives🙂 as well as its fast😍😍😍

Love the Speciele, but don't think it justify more than double the price tag though. It's all about marginal cost... One thing for sure, I currently own a 991 CS, and I got a shot at owning the GT3 in near future, but the Ferrari, no chance for me at this point :(
