Stay tuned for more crazy!
Matt, not gonna lie, but there has been a little part of my life where you have inspired me to change careers, so that I can enjoy and afford the things I love, and that’s cars. There have been some comments I’ve made that maybe others and yourself haven’t liked, but they were never meant for ill intent. I enjoy your videos, and your life inspired me to do something different with mine 🙂
Matt, I like when you do a ''reflection'' of the car while you are editing the video like you did here. Gives another perspective when your heart isn't racing.
Porsche ad before the video was bad ass made the actual video from Matt even better
Nice video bud. You looked a bit nervous while driving the beast and did not push the car at all to experience what it is all about, but I do understand, and especially being for the first time in such rare expensive car, but I still enjoyed the video very much. If you ever in the Portland area, or come to visit Dundon you are more than welcome to drive mine and have my blessing to push it a bit harder and do another review for your viewers.
My favorite video of your Porsche review series is of the cayman GT4. The sound is just intoxicating
An amazing car, love this kind of videos. I still prefer and enjoy more a 991.2 manual GT3, nothing better that pure N/A sound, plus more practical IMO.
This series is awesome! Looking forward to the 911 touring video, personally that’s my favourite.
Water injection should be spraying the intercooler not the turbo and I don’t see the reason not getting the titanium roll cage!
You can't get a roll cage in the USA due to DOT regulations.
Weissach pack includes titanium cage in europe.
It does spray the intercooler.
the position of your car, the fact that you were clearly behind the line and still rolling backwards tells me that the guy on the bike was looking for those other folks that were already pulled over and he realized it too late and locked up the brakes. he almost rolled passed the rest area , nothing to do with you about to pull out, it was all him so relax and get some sleep tonight lol .
Must have been fun! I’m glad you expressed your opinion as ‘it doesn’t suit my tastes as well as the GT3’, instead of saying that the 2 RS isn’t good, or something like that. Keep up the honesty 👍!
Well said. The GT2 is great. I just prefer the rawness of the GT3.
My pick would be a 991.2 GT3, no matter how much money I had. The RS isn’t bad either though 😉.
Basically it’s a car that’s too silly to use on a road, only good as an investment vehicle to put away and dust every so often! Lovely scenery by the way
6:41 never in my life this moment to happen on OG
Beautiful area of NC to do the drive. With Parkway limiting your speed to 45, next time I'd suggest, if you have not done it, take 64 to Highlands and Cashiers. In my opinion, more fun than even Tail of the Dragon. Love your car and nice review of the fancier Porsche too. Thanks for posting.
This video series now has me looking at a couple 996 GT3s for sale so I can join in on the fun...
Nice video! I'm all in on the GT2 RS. Something about that turbo RS.
Thumbs up for the new clint eastwood trailer "the mule" looks great . And now for the gt2😊
In the 991.2 GT3 manual transmission the PDK+ button engages the rev matching when downshifting.
The Manual has a "Sport" button that replaces the PDK Sport one and does indeed engage auto rev match.
its interesting, your perspective on the car seems to match most other drivers, the car is WAY too easy to drive and give the driver a false sense of skill and that it doesn't feel like it is really that fast (obviously generally speaking the car is stupid fast) since it is so well built and solid. Great video
Nice of Sean to let you drive his baby!
Great video Matt!! As to the car itself, this one is definitely not for me. Even though the prices are down to about $420,000, the issue for me is that the next one of these, will be out in a couple years time and it definitely will be better. In the end of the day, this is just a 3.8 L turbo with a PDK. Manual trans GT3, on the other hand, I don’t think we will see another on of these.
Tim Tursonoff gt2RS is made every 8 years.
There are already 992 gt3 and gt3 touring manual transmission track-testing videos all over TH-cam. Definitely going to see those again, and definitely sooner than a 992 gt2 rs
Tripod yes, but will the 992 GT3 and GT3RS going to be NA or Turboed?
Watch the videos of the prototypes testing. They sound as awesome as ever and definitely not turbo
Interesting to see that there was no roll cage, I believe there is an option of the weissach package without the roll cage but I don’t see why it would not be selected. Perhaps Mat can provide some insight to this.
Ps, great and entertaining video!
Why would it be selected is the question?
No roll cage for NA cars
Anel Kovac I don’t believe this to be true as the gt3rs is NA and contains a roll cage. If there were to be the case although it is not wouldn’t the gt2rs have a roll cage as it is not NA.
The GT3 RS does not get roll cage in NA either
US Department of Transportation / National Highway Traffic Safety Administration rules & regulations. As interpreted by Porsche (correctly no doubt), it prevents the fitment of 'race track' roll bars to a street vehicle imported into the US! American safety regulations state the cabin can't house non-deformable objects that can injure the head of an occupant not wearing the seat belt.
Anel Kovac I feel as though there may have been a misunderstanding, just to clarify with you are you referring to NA as ‘Naturally Aspirated’. Secondly Mats gt3 rs is in the Us and has a roll cage so I don’t quite follow.
Another awesome car thank you
Did you say a 1/4 tank with only 30 til empty? Yikes
Trust me, it was a fun to get 30 til empty on the 1/4 tank...it wasn't because the car was getting normal gas mileage.
How many options does it provide for the 2rs? or 3rs as well?
Needle may have been slightly off. He was on a hill.
In my GT4, I can only do 4, 20 min track sessions on a full tank.
Unpopular opinion: Black is BEAUTIFUL colour for this car
Looks so much better without those bronze wheels.
What a world, here I am sitting on the other side of the world watching someone else driving someone else's car somewhere.
Amazing right? 😂
also does your GT3RS have a fuse for the exhaust valves? reason I ask is because the vettes that have dual mode exhaust will have the valves closed at low rpm and only open past a certain RPM, however they are vacuum AND electrically controlled and have a fuse on a dedicated circuit. enter the "mild-2-wild" switch, a manual switch to toggle modes or what i did was built a wireless switch with a fob so i could control the exhaust valves from my pocket while at a car show. how it works is when you disable power from the circuit (i.e. pull the fuse) the valves will open and stay open. if this works and you make a video on it give me a shout out :) my obsessed house channel is now set to private, using it for reference only since the house is finally built.
Love the Cherohala. I hope I get to take my 911 Turbo S down it some day.
I like this view in your podcast room, for this type of "comments" video. I understand it would not work for the Sunday podcasts where you need to be looking at the monitor.
That was a WTF!! Moment 🎃🎃
I can completely understand what you are saying, for my job i get to drive a lot of supercars but mainly Porsches over Lambo's,Ferrari's, Astons. For me my all time favorite car is the gen 1 991 GT3 RS, haven't driven gen2 GT3 RS yet. As for the GT2 RS there is indeed a drone but the car is just like a sweet butter knife going through everything! still i take a GT3 RS over everything and a Huracan :-)
@Raymond Luna look up Aecars in belgium. ;-) or Aecars on facebook. I do sales and pictures but in vacation now for few weeks so my replacement takes pictures :-)
Topzaak quattrings!
I met him at my church at apopka assembly for a car show he brought a porshe and a sick all black Honda and showed us what he uses to clean his cars and how
Yep, that was me.
Yep u we're awesome
Such a good one!
So you enjoyed the .2 RS the most out of the bunch I'm assuming? Seems like the GT2RS was just too overwhelming to fully enjoy.
He didn't make a video of the .2 rs yet?
Hey Matt, I was curious where did you get the gt3rs canvas prints (@ 1:00) created at? Thanks
www.gikacoustics.com
Car sounds pretty good for turbo. Not too many ppl are liking this car. Seems like hardcore track guys are the only ones that'll really enjoy this car. It really seems like just a track car.
Sometimes I watch this videos to fall asleep before bed
Me too.
I was more excited about the place you are living
What desks do you use in your edit? I like that setup.
Wow feel like i am d one driving it great car
That studio setup is nuts! Looks great!
Thanks!
6:03 "Sorry, dude... I'm in a freaking GT2RS! Later!"
And I will say, I don't think anyone can legitimately fault you for taking the time to experience the car, versus talking about it and filming more. I am really enjoying the GT3 videos and this one... I came here for the GT350 when you had it, and these videos are making me want to enjoy the Porsche experience.
Love the editing/ podcasting room you've put together. Well done.
BJ motors has 3 of them last time i checked
Great vid.. where did you get the desk.. Love it!
www.uplift.com is the desk.
got it, thanks
That guy just slammed the rear of that S1K rr and it didn't even look like his from what he's wearing...
Why the GT2 RS still has unpainted plastic exterior parts? They hurt my OCD, anyway I enjoyed the video.
Good video 👍👍👍
Would love to know where you got that black 911 poster from !!!
www.blackartgraphics.com
So is the PDK in this car similar to the PDK in the Turbo S or is it a beefed up version of the PDK-S from the GT3?
I'm not sure, but I think it is PDK-S.
It would be interesting to know how interchangeable, if at all, the parts between PDK and PDK-S are. I know one major difference is the paddle neutral behavior. In both cars, while moving, pulling both paddles will put the car in neutral. The PDK-S, as I'm sure you're aware, allows the same behavior from a standstill without having to use the brake to re-engage gear, so it can be used as a clutch dump. I had a 981 Cayman S with the "regular" PDK and the paddle neutral was a fun little party trick, but couldn't be used as a poor man's launch control since it required the brake to re-engage gear while stopped.
If the GT2RS does indeed have the PDK-S, that means they either swapped out some parts or it is managing the additional couple hundred ft lbs of torque very well since the GT2RS makes it much lower in the band than the GT3. I'm pretty sure even the regular PDK in the Turbo S already manages the torque with some slip to protect/allow it to perform repeated launches. And newer PDK can even slip between gears for fuel-economy, so they are pretty sophisticated.
Anyways, cool vid, hope you enjoyed it.
Sounds like you will want a GT2RS some day. That's it sell the BMW and order a GT2RS
I think it's good to get 997 GT2RS bcz its manual and way more scary than 991 GT2RS
@ obsessed garage matt : whats your thoughts on the next generation of 992s?
I'll probably dislike them. Turbo is not a good thing.
Wow...
Does it let you free rev at low speed while in gear? 2:38
If you watch carefully, Matt presses the 2 paddle shifts simultaneously putting the car into neutral and then revs
1/4 tank should have been good for 42 miles according to my calculations😂😂
Sir, could you send invite’s out for others like with BMW’s for a mountain trip? Thank you Matt
This is a GT Porsche only event.
How could or can i get something like this going for BMW and others? Thank you for any info.
There is a group going in October of E92 M3s. They have a thread on M3Post.
Obsessed Garage copy that sir, thank so much for that info sir.
What are y’all thoughts on the New Porsche Speedster especially if it gets the GT3 engine?
It's beautiful
It will have the gt3rs engine
you have never taken your car to the limit because both cars are night and day.
And your point is?
@@ObsessedGarage one car is a different planet. After a track day one seems like nothing. Cant go back to gt3
I don’t know much about these cars. Can some one explain the difference between a GT2 and a GT 3?
Thanks in advanced.
GT3, naturally aspirated and GT2, turbo
Obsessed Garage thanks Matt :)
If the tank was almost empty while not fill it !!
It is like 20 miles round trip. I left that to Sean.
6:00 Oh look, future roadkill ...
Car definitely needed more gas, Couldn't imagine having fun with the gas light on
Pls dont make yourself a fool calling this car a 9-1-1, its a 9-11
991 bro
Tras um carro da sua filmagem pra mim fazer o detalhamento, da uma força pra mim
This is what happens when I review cars. They're a cool, it's a great experience, and at the end I realize I barely spoke and could have gotten more clips haha. That means the experience is awesome :)
FML
What kind of ding dong lets someone else drive their 700hp car with only 30 miles of range?! Kind of a jerk move, even if it was a complete accident.
Eric Weir he’s letting the guy drive his $500,000 car... how is he a jerk?
I'm sure they guy is swell and clearly generous enough to let Matt drive. I never said he was a jerk. I said "kind of a jerk move." Sorry if that came off more harsh then I intended. Hopefully Matt get's another opportunity! :)
Eric Weir oh! I see haha.. yeah- wish he could’ve drove the car for longer.
The car had been driven by several people by then and there isn't a gas station right at the hotel. The 30 miles was calculated based on how the car was driven that day and there technically was more than 30 miles of range.
Solomondrin said the car was almost too good, too easy to drive and not as scary as the GT3RS.
Gladiator1972 no one cares
He probably drove it in LA traffic.
The GT3RS is not scary. The power in the GT2RS is crazy and can make the car scary, but you can't compare the GT2RS to the GT3RS when it comes to power. Most of the rest is similar, but power is dramatically different.
Solomondorin is an idiot. He should be reviewing hot wheels at most.
What makes you say that? I feel he's entertaining and knows cars and business.
