      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

    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.

    For the amount of work and praises that. Chris gave to Porsche over the decade he should really be getting a top spec touring for free. hell they should even do a Harris edition 1 of 1.

    Wow. Two minutes in and Harris has already pinpointed key elements that others did not, and those others are not shallow or slackers. Twenty cheers for the uber car talented CH!
