    You are comparing cars with different seats. The bucket seats changes the feeling of directness to the cars quite a bit. Driver is connected more with such seats. I consider this difference very similar to regular suspension vs. rose joints.

  • @pdds1
    @pdds1 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I went from a 997.2 GT3 to a 981 Spyder. Love BOTH! The gearbox feel is Porsche, the best and unfortunately the few we have to play with. Sound, of course, GT3! However, I was pleasantly surprised by how nice the Spyder sounded, quite aggressive. My 991.1 Turbo was no where close to the sound or fun factor. Style, subjective but the Spyder “humps” gives it and incredibly exotic/unique look especially with the top down! In conclusion, you can never go wrong with a Porsche!

    Of course the GT3 is the superior one, but I wonder if the comparison misses the point. The Spyder gives you one of the most beautiful car designs and a whole lot of unadulterated sports car pleasure for far less money. In fact you could buy a Spyder for weekend pleasure and an electric car for everyday commute (e.g. VW ID.3) for less money than what you have to pay for a GT3. Is the extra bit of experience that the GT3 provides worth the premium? „Yes“ for some people, „no“ for other people - and it‘s great that Porsche provides options for different needs. In terms of sports car value for money, the Spyder/GT4 is hard to beat.

    • @johnlee5307
      @johnlee5307 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      My thoughts exactly but the car guys are in a different income stratosphere. If I was filthy rich, I would have the GT3T and a Boxster GTS 4.0. As it is I daily a Mini SE and my 981 BGTS is my weekend car. It turns out to be cheaper in the wrong run than dailying my Porsche due to lower insurance, running costs and depreciation. Plus the Mini SE is very fun in its own way.

    love this comparison video D&J this is great work, the GT3 is a drivers car high water mark. I agree that with the "not a Boxster" - "you absolutely have to get an after market exhaust" however I'd say to any owners looking in, first check with Porsche about the cars warranty before fitting one, it's a dilemma set to face all future GT cars unfortunately, making the 991.2 first batch, those produced up to around mid 2018, the must have GT car.

    OPF filters are killing noise but also engines themselves that are made in compliance with new regulations. This is really frustrating because it means we are not seeing the pinacle of what can actually be made in 2020, which would obviously be much better than what is currently being released under very restrictive regulations.

    I would question why you’d have the fixed back seats? They look great, but are too firm for comfort, hard to get in and out of, and make it difficult to utilise all the space in the back. The standard sports seats are awesomely comfortable and offer more than enough support. Get the bucket seats in your RS and then make use of the harness holes.

Both are maybe the purest Porsche can do these days with all the regulations and such but they are no where close to the 997/987 generation when it comes to pure driving fun. Touring got replaced by 992 4S and a 997 GT3 RS 3.8. Sypder will be replaced by a E46 M3 CSL manual conversion. Cya! ;-)

    Would’ve thought the Spyder had better steering feel, feedback, and turn in. Although not GT cars, I’ve had a 718 GTS and now a 991.2 GTS and felt that the 718 was a little better. Did both cars have the same alignment setup? Are you sure the GT3 doesn’t have more front negative camber? You can obviously check the front 3 strut mounting bolts to see if ones farther to one side than the other.

      Thanks, Alastair. I thought it was an interesting comparison too. Not one most people would make, but since I noticed such big differences, I thought I'd share them.

    So basically you need a 911 4.0ltr speedster with carbon ceramics manual ? That way you get the best of both worlds with the roof down ? All boils down to that cracking 9000rpm Revving engine and sharper gear box , if money’s not a issue the speedster is the one for summer fun , but saying that I recon that boxster will still give that gt3 touring a hard time on some good twisty roads driven correctly with those cup 2s and Carbon ceramic brakes .. would love a 4.0ltr gt3 engined 500bhp boxster spyder keep the videos coming lads all good stuff ....

    It's just struck me how much the Spyder's standard exhaust sounds low down like that farty buzz you get from an M4 or the latest Fiesta ST. I hope the new exhaust helps the tone 🤞🏻

      I was just thinking the same. Possibly the only watch id sell my "normal" speedy for.

    Spyder spec with those seats looks epic! Great video Sirs ! 🙏

    Great video!!! Your seats are beautiful!!! Love the brown leather. I suggest that you take the center armrest to seat guy and match it with the same leather. It would enhance the overall interior appearance!!!!

    The GT3 Touring is lovely! Just the red gauges should have been grey 😋

      I’ve got used to them now - they match the brakes

    Great show guys! 911 targa purchased! I love it! Would the targa GTS be a better rival for the ‘spyder’? Maybe Porsche should over a GT3 targa touring! Not the purest but sound track with the best looks for a 911?

    GT3 touring is as close to perfect sports car as I can think of. Wrist watch check was valid for all of 30 seconds when you replaced the BB58 Blue with an equally tasty Speedmaster by the looks of things!

    991 Speedster is the best of both cars.

      I ordered one from eBay, and then my detailer scaled it up

    Your conclusions are fair for a comparison of the GT3T and Spyder generally cruising around public roads. I would not say this comparison is equivalent to a GT3 vs a GT4-both track-oriented cars. If both were pushed on a circuit, the dynamics of the mid-engine platform really shine and would probably make up more than 60% of perceived value.
