Porsche 997 GT3

The vehicle in detail

The Allure: Expelling a ravishingly ridiculous yet sonorously seductive soundtrack, the 8,500 RPM redlining race-derived unit, which would become to be the last GT3 to encase the highly-acclaimed 911 GT1 ‘Mezger’ motor, in combination with the 997’s charming chassis — a setup that would be the last preeminent purveyor of prominent pendulum dynamism comprised of a svelte front track with a very pronounced rear end in conjunction with a wheelbase that’s relatively shorter than its successor while also having steering feel that’s sensationally raw and ultra communicative due to its hydraulic nature while the scant usage of electronic aids isn’t widely present in interfering with the driving experience, all unite to provide a radically desirable old-school motoring identity that’s absent in the subsequent GT3 generations and positions the 997-gen GT3 in a coveted category of its own.
