Comparing the 992.2 GT3 with Wing and Key Features of the 992.2 Model A little while ago, I had the opportunity to test drive the 992.2 GT3, so I’d like to share a comparison here.

992.2 GT3 Touring Test Drive Review Part 1｜Performance Revealed After 800km Post-Delivery
800km Covered After My Brother’s GT3 Touring Delivery My brother’s long-awaited 992.2 GT3 Touring was finally delivered. It sports a simple yet striking GT Silver body with yellow PCCB brake calipers and silver wheel rims. Surprisingly, my brother—who usually prefers flashier specs—chose this understated combo because he wanted to “keep it for the long haul.” Inside, the black full leather with crayon stitching keeps things equally restrained.

Porsche 911 GT3RS (991.2) Test Drive Review: The Ultimate Street Racer
First Impressions of the 991 GT3RS There’s one thing about the 991 GT3RS that has stuck with me. It takes me back to when the early 991 GT3RS was first released, and Matsutoya-san drove it on Car Graphic TV. Known for his calm and measured reviews, Matsutoya-san was grinning from ear to ear—an expression rarely seen in recent years. That moment remains vivid in my memory. “What a fantastic suspension!” His words and smile perfectly...
