Porsche GT3 RS 4.0 v BMW M3 GTS v Mercedes C63 AMG Black Series - /CHRIS HARRIS ON CARS
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
You know the form by now: driving on road and track. Carving the neat, fast line. Then pulling mahoooosive slides, and telling it how it really is with all three cars. Doubt we'll have more fun in 2012.

Damn I'm watching this video in 2023 and it's 11 years old. The production quality is insane for the time. I feel like I'm watching a modern youtube video just featuring older cars. Nicely done.

Porsche have the best engineers; BMW have the smartest marketers. The BMW is way over-priced, but that's sensible - you can charge that, so why not charge that, if people are daft enough to pay it? GT3s meanwhile, are immediately sold on the secondhand market for much more than they were bought new for - so why doesn't Porsche put the price up? It's not like they're making anywhere near enough of them to satisfy demand - and that keeps them seeming 'special' so I can see why they do that (however much I dislike it) - but why not just bung on another 50,000 Euros?

@Robert Bowling - yeah, there is about 300kg about that Black series. They are just too heavy. If they make them lighter one day, I will sit up and pay attention.
The Merc is just amazing to me, it has a great presence, it is still very quick, pretty much as quick as the M3, but it still has all the comfort and luxury the M3 GTS stripped away, and is better than the other two on the road. So, yes it's a bit slower than the GT3 RS4.0, but who cares, with this sound and these looks :)

Considering how much the AMG offers besides speed, I would take it over the other two. The sound, the looks, the power, and the luxury put the other two to shame when you see nothing was sacrificed. If you had to drive one everyday you would end up changing to the Black.

You can really see Tiff's influence on Chris once he starts narrating the M3 lap. As if we all aren't Tiff fanboys!
The C63 is an insanely cool car!

Watched again in 2015. One of best automobile video ever. That Chris Harris man.
I love the sound of that flat six. It's such a glorious tune.
This was the video that made Harris my favorite auto journalist. Anyone else?
CH must be sorely regretting selling his 4.0 before the prices skyrocketed..
Years have gone by, and yet this is still the greatest video ever produced by Neil and Chris Harris on Cars - And that's considering the outstanding videos that have come out since. I didn't know it was possible to miss somebody else's car, but that GT3 RS...
The W204 C63 AMG Black Series is, hands down, one of the meanest, most vicious cars Germany ever made! I love that car excruciatingly! Simply one of the greatest. But the Porsche 911 deserve all the respect in the world! Both the C63 and 911 GT3 are legends in their own respects. Can't say the same about the M3. That car lost it's luster to me years ago. The ride is hard, the steering is tough, doesn't seem like a car you'd feel comfortable driving everyday. The M5 has the same problem over the E63 S. While the E63 is heavier, it's faster, more powerful, has a damn good all wheel drive system (the W212 E63 S starting from 2014 is the first E63 with 4Matic), on top of being more comfortable, having more fluid steering and, in my opinion, better looks. I think if you want hard, competition style racetrack car, BMW may be for you, but if you want a refined, easy going daily driver with a bad attitude, that you'd feel comfortable taking on long trips and daily commutes, AMG may be in your favor. But cars like the M6 and X5 M will keep MB and Porsche busy for years. Want sport? Look at Audi :)

The C63 could do a faster lap time by shifting like in the GT3.
As I've stated over and over and over; Chris Harris makes watching reviews fun and informative again... (from a professional). Cheers to you Chris!
Harris always goes to the point of the comparisons, he's brilliant. Superb video
Epic video in every respect! Been waiting for Evo to do a M3GTS vs C63AMG Black twin test and I've been waiting too long (althoguh I'm pretty sure I could write it myself!). Although the others are viable alternatives to the GT3RS, they're in a different league really in terms of outright pace. As much as I love your car Chris (and uber kudos for featuring it and driving it balls out in this vid), I'd have the Merc personally. Love that engine.
Harris is the BEST car-journalist ever. But...I think admitting with too little fare that the car he drives may also be a car to which he gets to the limit better.
What a beautiful track along side the sea there. Fantastic
These are the car reviews we need. Not these 7min overviews we get now. With Chris behind the wheel and Neil behind the camera, we get it all.
How could anyone choose anything but the Porsche between these 3? I know the Merc sounds bonkers and has a great personality about it, but Porsche's are just soooo beautiful and impeccably engineered. You could buy a GT3 and know that you'll easily have that car for the rest of your life if you look after it the way it deserves :)

Beemer looks phenomenal and it's the prettiest of the three imo. Just an amazing looking and performing car, and it doesn't have that silly bodykit on like AMG. It's just spot on. If I had to choose just one it would be GTS no doubt.

**my preferences** On a good lap these would've easily run: GT3RS: 1:35 C63AMG: 1:38 M3GTS: 1:38 Respectively; but the fact he's just doing 1 hot lap in each car, and able to lay down the times he did, is still incredibly good IMO. I find it amazing how great of a driver Chris Harris is though. I'd love to see him in an F1, GT, or Prototype racecar.
