A Jalopnik reader says his buddy, who works at an exotic car dealership, found this note on one of their cars. I thought everyone loved the GT3?
Welcome to Sunday Matinee, where we highlight classic car reviews or other longer videos I find on YouTube. Kick back and enjoy this blast from the past.
The GT3s are always my favorite variants of the Porsche 911. The next car is almost here, and it looks like it could be saying goodbye to the manual gearbox. It'll also rev forever.
The wheels-falling-off-of-Porsche 911 GT3
Porsche has been running the new 991
It's hard to tell if the motorsports swag center-lock wheel came off this Porsche 911 GT3 RS 3.8
The BMW M3 GTS has a great engine and amazing chassis dynamics, the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black has a wickedly charismatic V8 and quick-acting autobox. Both are lighter than their downmarket counterparts and sport huge premium price tags. But can they compete with the Porsche GT3 RS 4.0 on road and track?
Continuing a tradition as old as the 911 itself, the ass-engined slot cars of fascist origins continue to enter rally races, now in GT3 form. With no ride height, huge wings and and engines in entirely the wrong place, they look entirely out of place doing so. But that serves merely to emphasize their awesomeness.
Here's the GT car you'll probably see a million times during 2012, but only if you're a fan of sports car racing. It's the new Porsche 911 GT3 RSR — the Toyota Camry of racecars (quantity-wise) — in American Le Mans Series trim.
