Chris Harris tests the Porsche 991.2 GT3, showcasing its 4.0‑liter naturally aspirated flat-six producing 500 hp. The video highlights the car’s precise handling, agility, and track-focused dynamics, emphasizing the balance between raw speed and driver control.

Key upgrades over the previous GT3 include a larger engine with dual‑flap intake for improved mid-range response, revised suspension calibration, and optimized PDK shifts. The GT3 features aerodynamic tweaks—new front end, rear wing, and diffuser—to maintain high downforce.

Harris notes its playful yet controllable nature, allowing drivers to exploit grip and torque while managing slight understeer. Launch control enables rapid acceleration, while the brakes remain firm and fade-resistant.

Though less extreme than GT3 RS models, it excels as a versatile sports car for both road and track, delivering a thrilling driving experience without sacrificing daily usability. Its Nürburgring time of 7:12 and 0–100 km/h in 3.7 seconds underline its performance credentials, making it one of the sharpest and most engaging 911s in its class.
