An honest video at last no bragging or showing off well done

Yeah I'd use a GT3RS daily. But I don't live in the UK with roads that feel like a teenagers face. That kinda helps...

I daily drive my GT3RS…….for all the negative reasons you listed….of course I live in Florida where the roads are nicer….by the way; 991.2 has a much better sound system

Probably one of the best and most realistic reviews I've seen.

Yes, it isn't problem but there are much more comfortable vehicles to daily in e.g 991/992/718 4L NA GTS.

Which version is it? 991, 991.2?

@CarLifeIsContent

Жыл бұрын

991.1, Maybe the easiest way to tell on any 991 is the rear lights. On a .1 they are flush, on a .2 they have ridges on them.

Even if it was a more practical daily, I just couldn't see trusting knuckleheads to park in any proximity to me at the market...shopping carts etc. Definitely a lifer car imo(i wouldn'tsell it)....the creme of the Carrera crop !! 🏁

Of course, unfortunately the roll cage is difficult to navigate and the seats don't fold.

I'd be fine with dailying a GT3 but the RS is automatic only and that's a pass for me.

What's the benefit of the bucket seats over the other one?

Bucket seats really keep you in place when going around corners fast, down side is they are harder to get in and out of!

I would need to drive one, but reading around my view is it's probably a little harsh for me (992 gt3 is regarded as a harsher ride than the 991 3rs).

Great video and thank you for sharing your thoughts on your own GT3 RS for us all to have an idea of what this is like. I run an automotive KZread channel myself and if you ever would like to collaborate please feel free to let me know. I recently shared a film on a 991.1 GT3 RS replica on my last video and I am a huge Porsche fan 👍 Keep up the great content 🙂

id daily drive the RS, but you also have bucket seats, those things are brutal daily driving. I'd most likely go with sofas.

I agree with all you say, i got a GT3 and i would dread using it every day for everything. There's way more comfortable "easy" cars for that. And yeas, the sound system sucks xD

Also I imagine the service schedule is a bit aggressive for a daily driver, how many miles between services on that?

Want to daily or must daily is two different things. If you can afford this for what it is then you have the want to daily it. If you can't afford to not daily this then NO.

Voodoo. As far as we know this is 1 of 2 remaining rhd .1 3rs cars in this blue.

The ride is nasty. I worked for a supercar ride experience in purchasing and then a high-end rental company again in purchasing so I had multiple cars to break in for hundreds of miles. The Porsche GT models now needed a small run in time but still, the car was just too much for daily driving.

Of course you can daily it but why would you? Mine goes from the garage to mountain roads back to the garage. Have never and will never park it anywhere other than my shop.

I did in mine - 30k miles. Waitrose regularly. Why buy it if you don’t enjoy it. People are only interested in residuals - these are not to be locked away to impress and never be driven.

I drove one and I definitely wouldn't daily drive it

Eating steak everyday DOES NOT lead you to an early grave!! Stop with the nonsense, you’re not a nutritionist or a doctor to be saying that. Contrary to popular belief, for some people is very healthy to go carnivore, in fact some reduce and in cases revert deseases.

This is a bit dogmatic. You don't just say, "Because I love it. I'd never get tired of it daily." If you owned the car for a good while, that's fine. But if you haven't, then you're simply speculating how you'd feel dailying the car. Since the video publisher is an owner, his opinions have a greater merit than those of us non-owners. I'd lean on the side of merit than just some enthusiasm.

@88boat

Жыл бұрын

enthusiasm is like a fire that if not controlled, disciplined, tamed ... will surely eventually hurt your back because those harsh carbon bucket seats simply give your spine punches with every single bump on the road. Instead, get a daily (switch of the fire during the week) and on weekends, light that blaze till you threaten the suns existence. Then come Monday, you have an excuse to not go to work without feeling guilty.

I am Male, 26/Single/No Children* - I sold my ‘13 911 997.2 (2013 911 being manual/TTS spec) & bought a 992.1 GT3 RS *non weissach* Its a MONSTER. Revs out to 9,000 RPM W/ 7 GEARS. It NEVER wants to STOP accelerating. Foot to floor going, I am already at ~145MPH when I’m leaving 4th gear into 5th gear, with all of 5th, 6th, and 7th to GO. BUT If you respect her, she won’t kill you. I agree, it ONLY wants you to FLY. But I’ve been enjoying it being my Daily Driver. This reviewer sounds really whiny. Obviously there’s time for another car. Go get yourself a Aston sweetie 😂
