  • Chris got the opportunity to get behind the wheel of the Porsche GB demonstrator GT3 Touring ahead of the delivery of his own car!
    The 992 GT3, regardless of whether optioned with or without a wing, features the same potent flat-six motor we have all come to know from the GT3 model line.
    The 992 generation of Touring is also the first time where owners have been allowed to option the PDK gearbox. This example in the video is equipped with the manual gearbox however.

      I TOTALLY agree. Chris Harris is my all time best car reviewer and after him, there is Jeremy Clarkson. Chris has this simply way of communicating the most nerdy bits about a car with the driving experience that makes you feel like you have driven the car as well. Lastly, this is my dream car

    So they made the 911 - a road car - and then made a racecar version, then they adapted that for the road and made the 911 GT3 - a racecar for the road - then they made it back into more of a road car - the 911 GT3 Touring, a racecar for the road, for the road.

    For me the touring just misses a trick, why does it have to be so close to a standard GT3? It could be an epic road car sister to the GT3s epic track/fast road bias. Very slightly soften it down, ditch the dodgy uncomfortable fronts and give it rear seats. The clue should be in the name, Touring.

      Yeah, I feel that. Adding a back seat and toning the car down would be a good way to make the Touring package more distinct from a regular GT3, beyond just removing the wing.

      @@TheDoosh79 Motors are electric... engines are combustion... well you know what I mean ;-) but I agree with you wholeheartedly... the GT3's engine is the heart of the car..

    Will be a sad day when the combustion engine is no more. The sound..the feel..gear changes..it's what connects you to the car.. motion is emotion. I get the need for EV's..but it's going to be another step in dumbing down the human senses. Going to be strange when you don't hear noise coming from vehicles!! Also..Chris is the man 👌🏼
