Driving a 997.2 GT3 and 991.1 GT3 RS Back-To-Back

5 жыл бұрынMy friend Charles came by my house for a cook-out. His 997 GT3 was the first 911 I'd ever driven. We switched keys and took each car out for a quick drive.

Interesting about the new ones being "sterile" and his comment about this 997 being sharp. Having owned a 996 and a 991.2 - I have to agree. The 996 was more "sharp" than the 991.2. Now without a doubt, the 991.2 is faster and more capable. But it does not feel "sharp". Good word he used to describe it.

Man I remember when that GT3 first came out with the ridiculous redline and I used to play need for speed on my computer and I would always build this car 😎 what cracks me up is the sound of this engine sounded exactly like the one I built in my game!

Oh man. I sold my 997.2 GT3 back in May. Had it over 2 years and loved it but the mileage was creeping up and here in UK the values are really affected. I started running to strengthen my legs before I bought it knowing that clutch was going to be stiff but I got used to it and really had no issue. One thing is these cars need properly warming up so if you use it, say, to pop to town and back the gear shift stays clunky. It needs around 15+ miles of open road to get those fluids warm then everything smooths out. Mine was comfort (no cage, no extinguisher, and no buckets) finished in dark metallic blue. Front end was PPF’d. I’ve now got a 2019 991.2 Carrera 4 GTS in black, with PDK, GTS interior, red stitching and carbon inlays. It’s a great compromise between a base Carrera and GT3.

how would you compare them ? do you miss the gt3 ? is the steering a lot different 997 vs 991 ?? im looking to buy a 997 turbo or a 991 carreras 4s....

@@Bours911 997 Turbos are awesome. But I would go with a Gen2 PDK and avoid the tiptronic as they spoil the whole experience. Manual obviously great if you can find one.. I do miss the noise of the GT3 but roads near me are just too bumpy and it was forever chinning the tarmac with the front splitter. Steering on 991.2 is fine but I hear the .1s were not so good. Two months in on my GTS and loving it but in the dry I do miss the rear wheel drive dynamics and finding the 4 traction control a little intrusive. Not dared to switch it off yet but will get more used to it's limits first. Overall I was using the GT3 too much as a daily.

I've got almost exactly the same car (with same GMG/RSS parts), but 997.1. The engine has been replaced with a 3.8L unit built by Autometrics with Cup heads. Currently getting some engine refresh work done, but will be for sale thereafter. Hit me up if tempted - I'd like to send it to a great home!

Greetings. You kinda looked familiar whilst I watched thus video. I agree with this video. Ive a 997.1 GT3 , a 991.2 GT3Rs and a 991 Speedster on offer. The reason I remembered you - Was your Lotus Emira Configurator. I just got my Emira 3rd week of April. And was surfing for content when I landed on your post. That was a very interesting vlog.
@julesled Ай бұрын
My Emira is an Automatic 3.5 1st Edition. Touring Suspension. Shadow Grey Black Bottom. On red on Black Interior. Gloss Black Wheels. Check out JUBU For Engine tune. Im in love with the Emira. Its supple and reminds me of my 986 Boxster 25yrs ago. Itd be best with 460-500hp. It sounds good even now. Youll have fun with it.

Matt, 997.2 GT3 RS with sharkwerks 4.1 engine upgrade. Yes, $250,000 is a lot of money but you will have a car that rivals the CGT, F40, F50, F1 etc. Better than the 997.2 GT3 RS 4.0. Think about it.
