Porsche 997 GT3 vs F80 M3 at the ring

[ColinG]

Serious driving here, these cars are right on the limit. Amazing how well a spacious comfortable saloon does against a stripped out Porsche

 

[Stay Puft]

Very quick! What the hell was that thing they overtook near the end?

Jeees that M3 is fast.

Only in the very tight corners could you see the Porsche dominating!

I got bored after 6 minutes....

But holy moly that M3 shifts! And lol at taking blind right handlers at 248kmh! Lunatics.

I think it was a Radical RXC just before the mini carousel. I thought the Porsche driver looked like he didn't have to try to hard..

 

[Jack!]

You just won't stop going on about the 997...

That Porsche driver is s**t- I could do better than that! And it looks like the only reason he went that fast was that he was following the M3's lines (IMO). All things being equal, an M3 (whatever version) is not going to hang with a GT3. That M3 was shifting though, and is still impressive to see it being thrown around like that.

This is more on the limit :wink:

If I had a new M3 I would be so tempted to give it a little map. Im very impressed how well it pulls on that GT3 video. I also don't know where all the negative reviews come from when it does so well on that video.

The noise that GT3 makes!
