Our reviews give you two perspectives. Jakub takes the perspective of the car enthusiast, while Yuri represents the interests of the general consumer. You won't find details about engine compression ratios here, instead you'll have real world opinions on what it's like to drive and own cars.

250, 000 subs well deserved guys. Nice to see so much Porsche!

I'm a GT3 owner. Granted, it's the Lego Technic kit. But still...

I'm a little tipsy and just got home from a long shift. I bought two cheese burgers to eat at home before I go to sleep, then I saw this video ! Made my day !!

Red PDK GT3 owner here, so u know we are watching your vids! Been driving it every Sat and Sun morning from 6 to 9am in some local twisty roads, love it

Sapphire Blue MT GT3 owner here. Loving every moment of it!

can't wait to see what the future holds for these two and their channel, they're on their way up! the best car review videos I've seen!

11:00 moments like these why I love this channel

Regarding your rev matching question: I have a GT3 with the 6speed manual. You rev match either the old fashioned way, or you press the sport button, in which case the car rev matches for you. This actually works pretty well. However, I prefer to heel and toe myself, the pedal layout makes it very easy to do this. This is my fifth 911 and by far the easiest one to heel and toe.

Thanks for a quality review. I'm picking up my GT3 Touring at the end of Oct. in Stuttgart, and this got me even more excited. Planning the road trip now...

[Closertotruth]

Picking up my Miami Blue GT3 Touring at Atlanta EC next month. Long wait but worth it I hope. Will join my 991.2 GTS and Spyder. Blessed!

I know that the GT2 RS is fancier and has turbos, but I like this car better, it's much cleaner looking and no nonsense, and plenty fast anyway.

I thought it would be boring that watching a 17 mins video, however, you guys made it different than others. I love your video! I owned 991.1 GT3 RS and 991.2 GT3 Manual currently and i absolutely love them! Would love to know more about Porsche GT cars. Keep going!

GT3 Touring set to be delivered in November... I wish it had the ram air. Also, we went with the adjustable seats!

[AndrewS]

One of your best videos guys. The side by side comparison of the two cars where you listed off similarities and differences was great. I'd like to see that again the next time you have two cars at the same time.

[Skippy]

Congrats on 250k! The only car reviewers I watch.

Great video! I have a GT3 Touring in all black. Absolutely love driving this car. I drive it to work a couple times a week (I have a 100 mile round trip day) plus on the weekends. I love the manual gearbox. I think you asked about rev matching on the Touring? That’s done automatically in Sport mode.

[Viktorbjorn]

The best scene: the faces during the launch. Yes I rewound it a bunch of times!

[michaelsenske]

Love Jakub’s reaction to launch control at 8:35.

Guards red Gt3 owner with PDK from Abu Dhabi with red seat belts and sports bucket seats. Previously had the 2016 Agate Gray Gt4....as much as I loved the manual it became a pain to drive during rush hour traffic. Absolutely love my Gt3 and hands down the best car I've ever driven. The power is always there and the 9k red line is bonkers. Loved your review guys!
