PORSCHE 911 GT3

The “GT3” insignia, in Porsche language, denotes the purely track-focused models the 911 which have been stripped out, lightened and made more powerful.

Whilst all 911 power-units since 2016 have changed to turbocharged solutions, the GT3 remains naturally aspirated. In fact, not only has it retained the naturally aspirate engines of old, it has inherited the very special 4.0L flat-six engine that is unique to race-spec models. This engine produces a whopping 500 horsepower making the GT3 capable of a blistering 0-100 km/h time of only 3.5 seconds. The PDK dual-clutch gearbox is certainly a contributing to the car’s incredible performance as it allows shifts to be executed within milliseconds and offers responsiveness that no single-clutch system can offer.

The changes made to turn this 911 into a track-ready star are not only under the bonnet but also visible on the car’s aggressive exterior: lower and larger splitters, scoops and vents, as well as a center mounted sports exhaust make the GT3 look and feel ready to devour corners on a racetrack. The sound coming the from the exhaust is pure Porsche greatness and really heightens the driving experience to a new level. Inside, the back seats have been removed altogether in favor of weight savings; in the same spirit of overall lightness, the GT3 has carbon bucket seats that keep the weight down and to keep the driver solidly bolstered when driving. Amenities such as air condition and navigation have been kept, to conserve a comfortable atmosphere, even in this race-ready model.
