Since the first generation reached the market in 1999, the 911 GT3 has always been the answer, unless you are one of those strange people who despise the 911. Let’s admit it, a somewhat predictable answer, but it is not the Porsche 911’s fault that it remains the best sports car on the planet. The GT3, lovingly marinated in the brand’s immense racing expertise, is the crème de la crème, setting the benchmark both on the road and on the track. The engine is built on the same basis as its racing counterpart, has six individual throttle bodies and exits into a new stainless steel exhaust. In other words: it is a 911 with its own tailor-made 6-cylinder flat engine, which deliberately dispenses with the technology used by its siblings, simply because GT3 customers want it that way. Above all, no forced induction. It is also available with a six-speed manual gearbox or a seven-speed PDK. The latter weighs 20 kg less than the rest of the Porsche range, because it has one gear fewer, and is paired with an electronically controlled differential. The manual gearbox has a mechanical limited-slip differential and weighs 16.8 kg less. Visually, the changes mainly concern the aerodynamics, which come directly from racing. The whole body of this car works actively to slice or crush the air. There is a front spoiler adjustable in four positions, a fully enclosed underbody and an enormous rear diffuser, topped by what is probably the most sophisticated wing ever fitted to a road-going Porsche. The wing also has four positions and rests on swan-neck mounts, which improve the airflow beneath the wing and thus reduce drag without compromising downforce. The resulting wind tunnel figures would make the old GT3 look like a block of concrete. At 200 km/h and with the wing fully deployed, the new GT3 generates 385 kg of downforce, 150 % more than its predecessor.
