Haha.. I was just thinking this. I do just fine for myself, but now I know just how much better I could be doing

I just picked up a 2015 Carrera 4S two weeks ago. I wonder if Sharkwerks has an exhaust that fits it. I only see Carrera and Carrera S. I'm assuming it'll fit the 4S as well.

Beautiful sounding GT3!

The C2S and C4S is the same car minus you have all wheel drive so yes it will work on your car. Good luck.

Just beautiful man. I can't even imagine what that Sharkwerks sounds like at 9,000rpm. Its got to feel like you are driving a Formula 1 or something.

All of the Porsches in the very near future are going to be turbocharged. I am pretty sure that future GT3 and GT3RS models will be kept NA though. The NA is a dying breed of engine, and you sir own one of the very best that has been made. Drive her hard.

No way--- its one I found locally though. I would never buy a branded car- I know what it brings the second time around.


Do you have keyless entry and drive?

[Bimmer6]

No sir. Keyless is not an option on the GT3. Gota turn it

It's OK, nothing to write home about, typically I turn it off to hear the motor. When you get PCM its thrown in I think ....it's one of the other?

I know you joke, but the 997 GT3 is not remotely close to the 991 GT3. And it still held on very well in the E60 M5's playground (rolling race). And the GT3 is a manual which clearly hurts it in such a race vs the SMGIII...

anyways, Henry whats the verdict between the F10 and 991 GT3 sir.

A nice comparison of the 2 cars:

I just watched this earlier today.... They too like the sound of the GT3 over the Speciale but they loved a ton of other things about that F car. The track times were very very very close.

It would be purely speculation on my part. Owning both I would say the GT3 because of the gear box shift far more aggressive than the M5 coupled with the lighter weight. On the roll I would drive the GT3 in 2nd in the rev band, and lights out I would say. A friend of mine got the Gt3 to 203 on an airfield!

I don't know man. I love my GT3 but more for the raw feel and handling. It is not a powerhouse and runs out of juice on hwy acceleration. Might be because I am so used to the MAC but it is significantly slower. I think my M6 is faster for sure.

I know, I know... But, since I'm buying an M5 I thought I'd make myself feel better.

I think you're use to the MAC! I've nailed thr GT3 on a roll in the rev band, and PDK blips off 9k really fast.

Actual lap times are unlikely to be close on a dry circuit, and Chris Harris isn't exactly known for his lap times. The gap should be between 1.5 to 2s on a circuit of that length.

Why does he keep pronouncing it "posh"??? As an English, he should know better.
