Why I'm buying this car!

Here it is!! Mat has finally got his hands on the new Porsche 911 GT3 RS!

This is pretty much the most hardcore Porsche you can buy in 2022, and Mat’s about to find out if it’s the ultimate, must-have Porsche!

For starters, let’s check out the awesome design! There are a whole load of serious aero upgrades added from right at the front through to the rear. Up top, there’s a new front splitter, huge vents to help with air management on the carbon fibre bonnet along with additional vents surrounding the front tyres. Then round the back, not only do you have an updated rear diffuser… You’ll also find the biggest wing EVER added to a Porsche road car! And it’s not just for show - it’s 100% active, too!

Next up, let’s discuss performance changes. It’s pretty similar to the standard GT3, but of course, the output has been changed slightly. The power is up, from 515hp to 525hp, while torque is actually down(!), dropping to 465Nm. The GT3 RS’s home is the race track, but it can still smash out a 0-60mph in 3.2 seconds!

On the inside, the GT3 RS comes with a load of upgrades over both the standard 911 & GT3. Naturally, there is GT3 RS badging throughout, from the kick plates to the dials. It comes with bespoke dials with yellow surrounds as well as a unique steering wheel! There’s also some carbon fibre trim throughout the cabin, including carbon fibre-backed bucket seats!

As for the price, it starts from £178,500, rising up to £204,500 if you add the optional Weissach pack! So… Is it worth it? You’ll need to stick with Mat to see for yourself!

Mat's excitement in the beginning tells you how good the Porsche is

[harrygriffin]

Wicked looking car, can’t wait to get one in 30 years

I did not like how extreme it was when the pictures first dropped, but seeing it in video and having those features explained by the engineer, I've felt the same lust the 997.2 instilled in me. What an incredible evolution of the breed.

I'm so glad that porsche still kept the spirit alive with their N/A engines

Mat is officially a NIGHTMARE of every presenter/marketing guys

[Venetia-]

The amount of engineering and design behind this thing is insane. Literally every single piece of aero is all functional and not just for show.

The way the rev limiter bounces of the redline on hard approach to signal the instant [manual] upchange, but allows a subsequent settled redline for holding it there. Pure class.

Who else think porsche's gt series is just incredible 🤩

[ActionManXVI]

They continue to improve every generation, its remarkable. what a machine

[VSX]

I honestly love this format with Matt and representatives from car brands. It gives some sort of an old TopGear vibe It's great keep it up hah

[insertgoodusername]

i love how he got this exact spec lmao

[treborheminway]

That was hilarious when the Porsche rep said torque was down. Matt is a natural comic.

MAT, this GT3 RS with the WEISSACH package is breath taking. The sound at 9000 RPM is fantastic. All is perfect : the wheels, the tires, the brakes, the engine . All the carbon parts (aerodynamice or structure) are wonderful. I hope that you have already order it. You deserve this car . You are still young, you must enjoy life and cars.🔥🔥🔥🔥✌✌✌

[carstenschubert]

I can't believe that Matt didn't find the ONE fake vent on the rear that is actually labelled with "no vent" as an easter egg😂

Mat you have my Support, if anyone deserves one of these, it’s you Bro 🤞🏾

[bellman]

That spec is super cool. The bronze rims and the silver paint go together really well. 👌

[okithdesilva]

Mat you never fails to wow us! Love you so much Mat and everyone who helps to make these videos to wow us!

[FordEdge.VAWD]

mat's reviews are always so good like fr

What would be really interesting to know is, as it's down on torque vs GT3, what's the difference between it and the GT3 on a track? That's surely the kind of thing we want to know and very useful. Because one you can't (realistically) drive on a road as a daily driver and one you can.
