one nippeled legend
this deserves a pin
Nipped me to it!
How does someone lose a nipple? Seems careless to me.
@@Kmh0277 Do you see anyone else in the video, Keith?
Very nice intro 😊
Uhhh excuse me, but that lap timer is the coolest thing EVER. I love how it fluctuates between the red and green in real time based on your previous lap. That is way too cool.
is this an iPhone based laptimer it seems to work on CarPlay? I need it!
@@shameboy2 Porsche Track Precision app
The red and green isn't the brake and gas input ?
@@dennisb7317 No, it shows you if you are faster or slower from your last lap time in this section.^^
@@AlcatrazCrylake still really cool
Every single time Porsche just makes the best driving car. They're so good that people just take it for granted but their consistent quality in car making is so damn impressive.
Maybe consider researching the 99-2008 911 with a sealed intermediate bearing that invariably failed before 60k miles and then refused to stand behind what was obviously one of the worst engineering debacles to have ever been bestowed on a vehicle (and coincidentally the only design EVER to place a sealed bearing that was single point failure critical to the entire engine) no one had ever or since for that matter even considered placing a non lubricated sealed bearing inside of an engine for very obvious reasons (like bearings under load need lubrication to function and decrease wear and possible failure).
Good information. The bearing issue was a shit show to say the least. Car companies rarely stand behind an engineering failure unless the are sued and forced to make it right.
And yet hardly anyone actually gets to drive one.
@@r.guardia9107 Ever heard of how low margins on cars are? Porsche is standing at the top of the ICE car pyramid with a measly 20% per car sold, because you can't buy one without getting options on it from a dealer without markup. No one is getting wildly rich beyond your imaginations at ICE car companies. Better margins running a delivery service, webstore, or finance company lmao. For reference Tesla is at the top of all automaker and reported a 29% margin sold on each model 3 2022, but Tesla delivered more autos than 4x the total volume of Porsche. So Tesla is really raking in the $$$$$$$$.
Chris literally is the new TopGear. if it wasn't for him, it wouldn't last... one of the best car reviewers and a great driver.

@@Japs_Eye_Of_The_Tiger it matters about as much as you do to your parents i bet..

A video of Chris Harris and a Porsche. Nothing can make me happier
How about sitting in the passenger seat?
I prefer my bed with my girlfriend in it, but hey, whatever works for you....
@@forddriver8827 sorry but she prefers to be in my bed watching this video of Chris Harris with me instead. Win win for me
@@forddriver8827 This opiton was unknown. Maybe he would also prefer a bed with your girlfriend - who knows ?
I prefer owning the Porsche, but hey, whatever works for you….
A Porsche being reviewed by CH, the perfect CZcams content
Also by HC
Not really - he often complains about modern cars being dull and “too perfect” this would ruin my fantasy 😂
RS and CH always a winning combo since the 997 4.0
i can remember watching the "chris harris on cars" episode on the 991 GT3 RS, back then the leap forward from the previous generation was already impressive and chris was blown away. And yet again, porsche manages to constantly improve their cars and push the boundaries of whats possible with a street legal cars further and further. you gotta love that philosophy.
Wish there was more of Chris driving
I usually skip the talking parts in car videos, but actually on this one i had to hold off my skipfinger, the technicalities in this car are mezmerizing.
Wish he had 2 nipples
Not sure what the reasoning was, maybe just not enough seat time given to the driver and filming crew, but they messed up big time. This event didnt deserve only 3 minutes of driving impressions from Chris and only 3 minutes of track filming from who im assuming was badman Neil. Im left wanting so much more. But the "on road" video is still to come. Hagerty and Henry Catchpoles video on this car is outstanding if you want a more fleshed out longer review of this car. GO WATCH IT
@@CITRUS-- Thanks for the heads up checking them out now!
Chris Harris - the best motoring journalist out there by a very long chalk.
Great to see Chris on Collecting Cars. Top Gear are making a mess of their online 'presence'
Top Gear sucks. I prefer Chris in a standalone show.
Thats the bbc for you, clueless amatuers in charge. Take away the licence fee AND LET THEM ROT.
@@babyjazz101 For real. Chris' channel was one of the best things for car content on CZcams before Top Gear. It's great that hes getting more exposure to a wider audience but it sucks that we lost the old Chris Harris style videos.

There should be a mandatory life sentence for adding music to a car driving video.
I love how he said “stupid door handle” and immediately looked to the left with a lil smirk 😂 most motor journalists wouldn’t dare say that but Chris is huge in the car Game 👌🏾😝👌🏾
Title begins “Chris Harris” because that’s what is followed; even a Yellow GT3 RS doesn’t have as much pull. Legend in a legend.
7:20 the sound of the engine at that limiter and tires fighting for traction… gives me goosebumps man
Being able to adjust the diff and damper setting is probably the coolest feature of this new RS
100%...straight up race car vibe.
I hope it has a dependable durability.
How many of this car’s owners will have the knowledge required to adjust the damper settings, and the skills to come up with faster lap times due to their fine tuning? Such a car can be coaxed by Chris Harris to show its greatness, which is its ability to corner at speeds that, without downforce, would result in a certain crash no matter who is driving. How many of this car’s buyers are as good at a track as Chris Harris? The answer, of course, is that none of this matters.
In these times, owning a car like this confers beaucoup cred on the driver, trust fund baby though he almost certainly will be. In these times, appearances are more important than reality. The only track time this car’s owner will be participating in is on Santa Monica Blvd on hot summer nights. Just as well, because spec Miatas passing them on the inside at track days would be somewhat embarrassing.
If you had ever been to the Nordschleife, especially on a track day, you would know that a very large part of GT3 RS owners do track their cars on a regular basis. The average supercar buyer with no driving skill would rather buy a Huracan or a McLaren than a GT3 RS.
@@johntechwriter Porsche will actually educate you in the Accelerated Program(for example)on how to drive the car, adjust your track day settings and improve your driving skills. Now will there be some guys who creep traffic lights in LA, London. Dubai and Beijing? Sure, but the GT3 RS is the single most tracked car in production and it's not even close. So don't hate the game dude, hate the player.
Just incredible what the GT3RS can do round corners, stunning car.
This Proves that Chris hits different
I'm more of a GT3 Touring fan, but that RS sure demands an audience
Well then youre surely gonna like the upcoming 911 ST.. 🫢
U meant to say..." what up with that big ass wing"
@@gw4886 That's what makes it look good
@@robertlulek1634 To you. Ok for a track only car, over kill for the streets.

Not often you see and hear Chris working so hard driving a car at pace. Awesome stuff
Such a fan of this guy, makes you feel as if you are there in the car. Someone said it earlier, ABSOLUTE LEGEND!!
Car reviewer. Legend ????? Mmm. So a legend don’t mean much nowadays Nice fella though. Good presenter but legend ??
@@russcooke5671 I knew the meaning but for a second I was not sure " an extremely famous or notorious person, especially in a particular field." I think he fits the bill 😆
@@GsimRacing
Not a legend by any stretch of the imagination! A decent pedaller who reviews cars...definitely!! But that's about it, social media has seen a massive rise in the overuse of superlatives.
@@truthsayerq7264 OK guys, I hear your point and respect it. In my opinion he is/will be, only other drivers/presenters that get/got my attention the same way was the old Topgear cast eg Richard Hammond/ Clarkson.

I may not agree with your view, but I certainly respect your right to have it and voice it.
If my post came across as personal in tone then I apologise, it definitely was not the intention.
GT3 RS is great as usual, by the way it’s a nice watch.

Ah, the best car in the world again.
Still waiting for the official Nürburgring Nordschleife Laptime!
Great Video.
What I love about Chris’s reviews, is his genuine passion and enthusiasm. I’ve been gagging for this car, despite knowing I will never own or even get the chance to drive one. Like many, I’m geeking out on the tech on this car a would love to grill the engineers on why they did this and that. Like Chris, when I see this car I’m 12 years old again. Send it!
I’m 65 years old and I still want to have a poster of this on my bedroom wall.
Braking is my favourite part of driving. Nice to see it get recognition 👍
Literally the best part especially when it’s buttery smooth at all times

That 911 is pure badass! Also, I love the sound from the magnetic shifters. I want one!
I love how you can hear the paddles clicking when Chris changes gears, I don’t remember that being the case on any other car review video. I bet the tactile feedback is amazing.
It’s a magnetic paddle shift
Carfection: releasing the GT3RS video as soon as the embargo is lifted.
CH: I will give you a 10min head start.
I still love the 991 GT2 RS - but it’s not like I have the skills to exploit either. 🤷♂️
Chris Harris with the Porsche Singer and now a GT3 RS! Collecting Cars keep doing your thing
Hey. how's your day going have you heard of bitcoin and it's current value..?
In 3 words, WHAT A MACHINE!
Porsche absolutely killing it at the moment. They've really got it just right with the road cars being a little more grand tourer than sports car these days and the GT products being the road / track cars, RS...just nuts.
that carbon roll cage looks so cool
My god, in one shot you can see the heat mitigation in work, that mirage trickling off the side! Chris Harris, as always, simply the best!
The moments we’ve been all waiting for!
Big fan of the 911 since the original came out when I was a kid. More practical than most "supercars". GT2 version was superb but improvements are incredible.
IMHO, this is the most desirable and exciting modern day car in the world.

Brilliant, involving video as always from Chris :)
My new favourite Porsche until the 992 GT2RS 🤯
not coming unfortunately
@@reecet7679 source please?
@@farnum3297 the gt2 comes once every few generations so we probably won’t get another one for a long time
@@LegendInThaMakin Porsche has been making GT2/GT2 RS since the 993. So I don't understand wdym by gt2 comes every few generations. But there were rumours about the 992 version not seeing the daylight as emission norms will be stricter by the time that car is expected to come out.
@@Mvrk63 The Gt2 RS historically only comes with the mark2/.2 generations.
The GT3 RS and his watch are matching
We need more Chris in longer videos. Do they not understand that having Chris in a video driving a new Porsche is gold?!
Great vid. We come to see you drive, Chris.
Bless us with another one …. More driving, my man!
Great Vid Mr Harris, reading between the lines I get the impression you liked this car 😁. Can I also recommend Mr Steve Sutcliffe driving this car for EVO.
Chris Harris.
Legend.
Perfect level of enthusiasm.
We love it!
I know two GT3 RS owners, they all complain of the same: "after a while in a trackday you allways get this feeling that something is missing"
And we all know what is...
Can't wait for the real deal GT2 RS
I watched this on carwow earlier & perthetic review & Chris its such a pleasure watching a man who really no's cars & drive's the car to its max...👍👍👍👍
Been waiting for this💪🏽♥️♥️
All sold to the Porsche dealers 12 months ago and available for a modest markup of only 100%
Oh darn had I known this...😅
Love these videos with Chris. What an absolute legend.
Work of art!
Need to see more of you driving Chris !!
Thank you for driving it like a race car around that track rather than drifting it around every corner.
Amen. For a while the Italians had enough of Harris’s hi-jinks and banned him. Tail slides impress the 14-17 year-old male demographic. Or has Harris would put describe them, “My base.”
But it does take some serious skill to drift a Ferrari F12 while going 100mph.
@@johntechwriter I'm 30 and your comment just confirms that I have the mind of a child 😆
The little black fin thingy on the side of the rear window is to keep the hot air seperate from the cold air on top that eventually goes into the engine
This car is so fucking sick. I don't think there's any other car currently in production that i want more than this GT3 RS.
Epic first drive! Please get one RS for a proper review too, preferably on a similarly large track where you could experience the downforce a bit more. I would really appreciate if you walked us through how the changes in damper settings actually change the behaviour of the car.
I’m a simple dude. I see Chris Harris and a Porsche. I click.
Utterly the most insane gt3rs ever.
Great video, wished it was longer!!
If the GT3 RS is this crazy I can't even imagine what the GT 2 RS will look like
Will look like a race car.
Same as every other gt2. Porches never change lol. Every time these paid for journalists test a gt3 they come out with the same crap! Marketing ploys always work with cars
@@frontloader9489 Awful take lol Porsche 911s are universally praised for a reason. I worked for them for a while and people came in all the time with nothing but awesome stories and nobody was paying them.

Always a pleasure watching you drive.
The GT3RS reviewers popped out at the same time, five at once. I'm watching the best one first! CHRIS!!!
Heading for Hagerty now😊
3:10
Wait what ?!!
It does look remarkably stable and smooth under braking and cornering, must be so confidence inspiring amazing stuff.
Wouldn't want to own a "hyper" car - this is bang on for the money. Lovely!
My favorite feature besides the engine, the wing, the looks, the noise....the normal door handles.
If we get to see a 992 gt2 rs I can only imagine how outrageous it will be based on how absurd this thing is already
Hey. how's your day going have you heard of bitcoin and it's current value..?
Hope it has a low wing like the 997
It will be on the . 2 of the 992. The GTRS 992.2 will be made
Let’s hope it’s AWD this time.
@@kraenk12 I doubt it lol that takes away from what the GT2 RS is
Can't wait to see it on the roads in production form after seeing it testing it for a while on the Nürburgring!
Chris as always explains the car so us normal folk get a feel for the car ,brilliant work,brilliant car
I remember the first time I saw you, it was late in the evening and we met at the reception of the Berkley Square Hotel in Bristol. You came in to check yourself in, and the moment I saw you I was like "no way, is Cris fking Harris"!!. We got talking for a few minutes and I asked you which was the best sports car for you. You didn't answer me straight, but instead of that you told me that the porche gt3 RS that you had parked right outside the hotel door was the an absolute machine, (I guess this new model is even better). This was late 2015. I ended up giving you my porche jacket (not even an original one, but you know, I was just a night porter in an self named four star hotel working for the minimum wages). That was a special time for me which I'd never forget. I used to see you from time to time having a drink in the Clifton area in Bristol with (I assume) are your kids. Anyway, all the best mate!
Would love to see this on slicks compared to a cup car
One of the videos I saw had an interview with Andreas Preuninger and he said this, on the bespoke tires it comes with, was quicker at a couple tracks than a Cup car on slicks!
@@rangerlongshot Hmm I thought he said "in a couple of places", as in, some sections of the track. That would be cool but I doubt it as cup cars are only a couple seconds off a GT3 and again, that's on slicks.
Great content as always. Keep going
The moment I have been waiting for!! Yes! Here we GO!
In love with the seriousness of Porsche! Unlike any other manufacturer in that way IMO.
This car is a total track weapon, yes you can drive it on the streets but it would handle better on the track where you can try to extract the true potential of the car
Great shots of the car on track!
Love seeing Chris review cars!
Didn't Techart and their ilk used to make body kits like this and everyone mocked it as just being about the looks?
Porsche could shape the next GT3RS like a milk-carton and fanboys would still mindlessly obsess over it
@@of.course obviously, its the best car in the world
I need to take a cold shower after seeing that.
Always a pleasure watching Chris
I went to the Porsche dealer recently just to check out one of these. Extra bonus - they had a 918 Spider in the shop! Cool car. I've always liked the GT3 because the acceleration is powerful but more linear than a turbo, thus more predictable. Normally aspirated is the way for me. I also drive a 911 Turbo Cabriolet, and it when you turn up the power, it decides when it wants to snap your head back.
Kudos to Chris Harris - a really objective and informative review.
If Porsche can ever be persuaded to find more time for you could you do a longer video in which you describe the effects of changing the diff (which most of us won’t have experienced?), dampers and TC? That would be fascinating.
Catchpole/Hagerty is 20 mins. Might wanna check that out?
@@princesssolace4337 Thank you, just watched it (I subscribe to Carfection) and it was excellent. The lap with Bergmeister simply stunning in a road car!
Impressive work. I wonder how it will stack up against a new Z06 with its track package. Glad to see two NA engines hanging on before full electric takes over.
Don’t bet on Porsche fanboy Chris driving it. He’s in their pocket dontcha know…
The Z06 has a lot of torque that's for sure. GM really nailed it. This RS will be quickest through the corners though.
@@markw9512 It doesn't take a porsche fanboy to realize that the gt3rs has way way more downforce and is way lighter than the new z06
@@markw9512 Yawn
@@MaxB00M No, but it does take one to deny CH is one.
I have never seen a more beautiful car in my life.
What an absolutely stunning machine. I can't believe how adjustable it is. And the sound is pretty much always what gets me. I love performance, don't get me wrong, but if my car is slow but still makes wonderful engine noises, I'm still a happy man.
This car is absolutely gorgeous from top to bottom with perfect engineering. I would love to own this piece of art if I could buy it one day
It’s official, the 911 has reached hyper car performance.
Wait until the GT2 RS 😳
Always has been
The Turbo S already is faster than most Hypercars.
Love 991.1 Gt3 RS, this looks epic cant wait to get one in stock...
Absolutely the most exciting track weapon you can buy.
A lot of rs owners going to be setting those suspension settings to zero and then brag to their friends how adjustable the car is lol
The amount of adjust-ability thru actuators and menu settings of this car is amazing. I'm sure Porsche is experimenting with AI to automatically adjust those setting vs you taking a lap, hitting the pits and spending 20mins making adjustments accordingly--AI can do it in real time. I think this is where Porsche is heading....
Two Chris Porsche videos back to back. Happy days are here again.
Jörg Bergmeister apparently did a 2:08 lap.. Chris Harris showing a predictive 2:14 lap while talking about the car.. now that is impressive! Car is amazing as well..
Actually 6 full seconds off on a 2 min track is complete garbage. My brother was just at a track event driving various cars and Townsend Bell was also there to talk (former INDYCAR and current IMSA driver). My little brother was 9 seconds off on a 2 minute track and he has no background in driving competitively. I’d be willing to bet Chris could get within 2 to 2.5 seconds in same conditions (dry track, warm tarmac), anything at 3 or more seconds, Chris would be disappointed with.
@@KosmicHRTRacingTeam pro did a 2.08 lap not a 2 min flat and he did it on fresh cup2r tires and just concentrating on setting a fast lap. When you take that into account, and consider not only he's a PRO driver and hugely familiar with the car, then Chris being off by 6 seconds while chatting to a camera is not garbage. Give him some fresh tires and no camera to talk to and he probably could get to around that 3 seconds off you mention. My point was simply to be that close while reviewing a car is impressive. In comparison, Steve from the EVO review had a predictive 2:46 lap while reviewing and bragging about giving the lead gt3 a hard time 🤣. I love that lap timer on the car btw! Keeping all the reviewers honest
