Thanks for watching! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Best sollution is to own both, obviously.
I was thinking about buying both but I decided to go with a Mitsubishi Mirage.
Couldn't agree more, that is a great solution 😅!!!
in order to own either one of two, you probably need to have bought a few porsches from the dealer at the first place🤑
A manual gt3 and turbo s would be the perfect combo
@@zonkar probably dodged a bullet! imagine not being able to decide which one to drive on a sunday :/
Chris was such a cool guy, great instructor
10:14 did NOT know Topher had it like that 😭
bro had that DAWG in him
Formula Drift Ft: Topher
Topher just showed his expertise stringing all the corners together on low friction course
The guide is really well spoken! Shows he knows a lot about the car.
You are lucky to have been paired with a great instructor. I did this same course and my instructor was absolutely horrible. They barely knew anything about the vehicles, coud barely explain each segment of the course, and my 90 minutes was basically spent in silence. Looked forward to my only GT porsche experience and was severely disappointed. If you get the chance to do this, grill your instrctor. Dont pay this much money to get a negative experience with an instructor who doesn’t care.
Well said..
Do you happen to remember their name?
This is very informative for how to drive track.
God, what an astonishing opportunity to get to experience the Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta via POV video! Getting to virtually sit in the hot seat of both the 911 Turbo S and the GT3, and testing them through the myriad of tracks and pushing them to their limits was simply incredible. This video alone further solidified my interest in owning one of these great feats of engineering one day. Kudos to Chris for being a top notch instructor, as well as you definitely knowing how to toss these beasts around 👌
Simply the most enjoyable car video I’ve ever watched, never driven a performance car, but watching you and this whole video was intoxicating, the instructor was interesting to listen to,
Wow that was simply awesome, never enjoyed a car video like that, loved the sound of the gt3 bravo
Wow! Great driving Topher! Love the GT3 👍👍👍👍
Your Driving on the low friction course was superb! first time manhandling the car and aced it!
What a great video Topher! Nice driving! I'm a Turbo S kinda guy.
Great car control when drifting mate, really impressive!
Great stuff! What an amazing instructor also
super cool and thanks for sharing from POV! I wanted to do this combo event with both tracks so badly and now you made it look even better. Only downside i think is that you got the golden treatment with the invite. I think paying customers get a much shorter experience and I don;t think they let people keep trying the course over and over like you got to. If this video was representative of actual customer experience i would be signing up ASAP! Either way fun to watch and impressive skills man!
that PDK is so sharp ugh making me reconsider specing a manual on my 992
Unless you’re racing competitively, the faster shift time doesn’t matter more than what makes the car fun for you to drive and nothing is more fun than manual.
Keep it
No wrong answers. I have a manual on mine but seeing how fast the PDK shifts here is truly amazing
I think personally I would go for pdk.
I've driven so many manuals in my life, I'm over them.
Topher was killin it on the low friction handling portion! Nice!!
Very talented instructor!
What the. I just tried searching this exact car comparison this morning, an hour before this video dropped.
Same. I subbed immediately. That instructer was great. Driving was nice too. Looking for to doing in Feb
I really enjoyed that!
I need this job! Porsche really giving a great experience!
That “rally jump has some serious skid marks on it lmao
Someone needs some Oxi Clean 🤣
instructor is amazing!
Proves you don't have to be the greatest driver to enjoy quality.
Nice video.
Turbo S for straight line speed, GT3 for track and that godly engine sound.
turbo s for daily driving, gt3 for track day on weekends
@@xploshisson76GT3 is a great daily
@@A1waysSo2 uh no, it's not
@@diddleyshinyhunter My friends dad has one and says its great, I also been in it
@@A1waysSo2 im 100% sure it's great but there's no storage room, it's uncomfortable for longer Trips and it's generally just built for the track, not the road
Turbo S for me
I would have a hard time concentrating with all the air planes landing over head. Be like a dog watching a squirrel every time one flies over.
EXCELLENT!!!
youre so skillful!!
I would be disatisifued with my current driving skills to do this. I will work on them and then doing this experience is more fun
Cool instructor
So nice. Seems for fun that owning one lol because of many dynamic and different tracks and cars type and expert sit by you to talk and guide
gt3 touring ftw
Turbo S such a complete car.
Nothing can compare with naturaly aspirated flat6🤤
So i would prefer always GT3🔥👍
I need a cigarette after this and I don't smoke!
Stylish and practical vehicle
As a German it’s so crazy to think that there are Porsche experience Centers in other countries
Wow wow wow
He’s a great coach
what kind of camera and mic do you use?? appreciate the response
So the GT3 has the option of paddle shifters as well as the 6 speed manual?
10:11 i like this part
The best solution is the gt3 based on it has a gear shifter and the turbo has a “what is that” selector
Plus the 3 sounds so much better
That’s fascinating. I’ve also noticed the same issues with my Turbo S and GT3. I have a Touring so maybe if I had the non Touring with the wing, it might help more with the downforce. Although I must admit I prefer my Huracan STO over both of these on the track. (Wakes up and realizes I need to stop day drinking) Thanks for the great video though. Still appreciate it even though I’ve only seen these cars drive by in West LA.
It would be nice to see a 992 turbo s with the sport package or the lightweight packe to see the differences
The planes coming in to land against a fluffy cloud backdrop made it feel like a Sega game from the 90s
I love the sound of the engine at 6000 reps of the turbo s but man when you hit 8-9 k range of the gt3 that was next level shit....pure orchester for the ears😁😁
topher needs to subtly remind us every now and then he's a god behind the wheel lol
"The Turbo S is PDK standard, because they couldn't find a clutch that would take all that torque."
Um...the PDK has clutches, and they take all that torque. And Porsche doesn't look around trying to "find" clutches...they can engineer their own clutches if they want to. And clutches can be engineered to take as much torque as you specify, although of course they'll get bigger and heavier.
I love the PDK myself. It alone has ripped me away from being a strictly manual guy. But to say that's the reason is malarkey.
For me personally, with that power and torque I'd rather have both hands on the steering wheel at all times😂
you have to add outside pov too while drifting
For the street turbo s all the way
Beard trimmer shifter 😜 that's funny 🤣
❤😂🎉🎉🎉😢😅😊😊😊😊 is this the one in LA or is this the one in Vegas? If so, I like to know take care.
Try Atlanta ...
They need to put Cup 2s on the Turbo S turn traction off and guy needs to stop talking and hopefully its a lightweight = watch the GT3 owners cry
he said 10 piston front caliper. I mean wouldn't the entire caliper just be bolts? I mean even with HUGE carbon brakes 10 pistons is insane.
You try to pull an emergency stop and the car just flips over😭
envy
GT3 handles so much better you can see how planted it is. Sounds unreal.
I really do not get this hype around the GT3.....It is good to make track times, but in terms of driving experience a Giulia Quadrifoglio has a much better turn in, much better steering feel, much better chassis playfulness, much better engine response..etc..etc a 997.2 GT3 RS has also a much better steering feel, much better chassis playfulness..etc..etc..I think the GT3 is being believed..not really lived..992 turbo S, great car for a touring car..very efficient 1st and second gear pulls, but after 3rd gear, not very different from other older cars in terms of performance. pdcc quite helpful in making the car efficient, but also making the driving feel more damped and a bit confusing at times... For me still the top porsche is the 997 GT2 and the 997 GT2 RS. Maybe the 991 GT2 RS also very good, but that one I never drove...
❤😂😢😮😅😅😅😊😊😊😊😊😊 i’d like to know where that is so I could see those Porsches and maybe rent one and learn what the young guy did. I’ve been the Porsche freak since I was eight years old and I got a lot of diecast stuff posters, hot wheels, but I don’t have the real Porsche. Oh well, but I know a lot about Porsches, take care. Have a good week.
As much as I love manual, idk that’d I’d be able to track the GT3…would need pdk. The sound of the GT3 🥹
How much this cost ya
This deserves 100x’s the views!!
Great Instructor..!!! Micky Mouse Track…😢
Me in my Prius in some random Missouri backroads
Same here
❤😂😢😮😮😅😅😅😊😊😊😊 yes because it’s a Porsche and there’s no substitute but Porsche Porsche the best and forget the rest. That’s what I always say. I wish I was in that Porsche in the backseat like a little kid.

Ashwin nte kunuvava❤
Bro next time get a camera man so that we can see it from exterior view
i really dont know which one to buy, whether it s the GT3, the TurboS or the CR-V
Good one ... I have a Kia Soul ... Kia Soul 'Turbo', that is , lol ... (did I regain a bit of 'cool', lol)
That’s funny I was just talking to my friend last night about if he’d rather have a GT3 or a turbo. Turbo for me tho :)
Best solution is to learn to spell. lol. You are right about owning both. GT3 for the track and Turbo S for Daily Driving.
Un circuit où tu n’as pas le droit à l’erreur 😮
How did you get permission to film? I brought my go pro to my PEC experience but was told no cameras allowed
No such thing as steel rotors, they're cast iron...
u need to learn trail braking and sync your foot with your hands
broo need a new m4 videos🫡🙏
9th comment!!!!!
Ee vandi poraa
This or c8?
Do you really have to ask?
Crazy how much ppl glaze c8
@@therealbuba Yeah you do, especially when the C8 Z06 exists lol. People who ride Porsche nuts online are usually the “numbers” people, same audience as most Throttle House and Carwow viewers
@@Justin_GFM damn, getting called out for being a numbers person, hit me where it hurts
My wallet prefers neither. Sad...
