    great video Lee and Mark is a superstar for letting you drive the car. I am not sure if the car you drove is running K16 or the larger k24 turbos of the Evo 1998 model. The larger turbos really give this car Carrera GT performance. The 911GT had thinner glass, thinner gauge steel, aluminium doors which you mentioned and an aluminium bonnet plus a short shift kit on the gear lever. The Evo's got steel doors. A proper weapon.

    Great car. And Great Cars that porsche creates. I found it a bit offensive to say that nowadays, porsche needs a „silly“ Wing and put this into context of the look of a car. The 993 Looks Great, but the actual gt3rs also, but that is not the Point right? It all has a function and the Look comes along with it. Thx for the vid

    I'm very familiar with the roads you've driven down and the GT2 didn't come across as 'crashy' over some of the poor road surfaces.... a modern GTi can be a real bone shaker at times.
