How does the GT3 do the best time in th SA wet handling test? aren Semi Slick tyres the worst for wet surfaces? or am i wrong in saying i has Semis?

"last time i checked the gtr beat the gt3 in the 1/4 mile and 0-124, and last time i checked the gtr did 0-124 in 11.4 secs and hit the 1/4 mile in 11.5 at 125! soooo how have porsche produced a faster 0-124 and 1/4 mile time???"

you say it look at 0 to 125
http://www.fastestlaps.com/index.php?page_id=compare&car1=_Porsc he_997_GT3_facelift&car2=4717b80e35715

the gt-r finish the 1/4 mile at about 200km/h and the new gt3 reach this speed before the gt-r does plus the new gt3 reach 312km/h top speed when the gt-r is limited to 180 km/h in japan and 310 for the rest...

Ive only seen 1 test of the gtr going fro 0-60mph in 4.1 seconds, other than that theve all donebetween 3.1 and 3.4. and from 0-200mph from 7.7 to 9.2 and the tarmac can make a big difference

the GTR costs no where near $120,000! the price as tested is $80,000 US Dollars, maybe you live in Australia where the GTR cost around $120,000USD????

I really like both cars but still do not understand how the GTR can acheive those times with that heavy weight??? Anyway where does everybody come up with $70000, when the GTR costs $120000!!!

well how have the same awd system in a near 2 ton car with an extremely good launch control system get 3.3 0-60 and 4.1 by same tester (car and driver)? there is no way conditions can make that kind of a difference the gt-r can easily get all of whatever power it was making to the ground. the gt3 may win in acceleration because its 800 lbs lighter, has a smaller frontal area but obviously if youre getting one of those "ringer" gt-rs its gonna be faster in a straight line.

"is right on the money, its true the gtr beats it in most tracks and in a straightline, eventhough its 900lsb heavier, which in itself is astonishing, but id rather have a gt3!"

i wouldnt say that 70k would be a waste on the gtr, but i would rather spend an extra 30k on the gt3. dont get me started on the SpecV crap and its $185,000 bullshit price tag, gimme a gt2!
1 year ago
same here, i wouldnt waste my 70k (imaginary 70k :) on a car that isn't as thrilling as doesnt really amaze you at all driving along everyday.

Had a chance to go head to head with a GTR the other day. My GT3 couldn't keep up on the straightaways or in the corners. Swapped cars just in case it was my naff driving but same result. Have achieved a 0-100 of 4sec and Vmax of 306 with the GT3. Overall impression of the GTR is marred by the slightly detached experience it delivers. Very quick, especially in the corners, but I'll keep my GT3 thanks. Oh and I disagree with anonymous on the exhaust issue. At full bore the GT3 sounds spinechilling and driving it in the mountains is an aural feast.

Porsche dont realy have a good exhaust note anyways, the only Porsche that sound really good is the Carrera GT!!

supercharging a porsche would ruin the exhaust note, but i wouldn't be suprised if you could find an aftermarket tuner to do it for you.
