Oohh quiet a shame that the driver did not loose control of the car in the corner at 0:58.
I would like to se how much a Porsche can handle a side crash by 220kmh in to an solid concrete pillar.
But hey think positive, this kind of small wiener boys, keeping the Financial crises down by giving people more jobs, like the undertaker, paramedics, police, fire-dep., more job for the Highway maintain workers,
that’s good isn’t it??

I'm gonna get ripped for this, but nice driving (even at :59), and yes it was a bit iresponsible to drive like that on public roads with traffic but i was sticking my thumb up at the end too
But seriously, bad bad Porsche driver, go and stand in the corner and think about what you just did, buy a Daewoo and slow the f*ck down

#17 I was trying to be nice with my comment so you would not look like such a dork , jerk. Forget that now. The GT3 is NOT AWD, look it up. The Porsche 911 Carrera 4 is AWD as is the 911 Targa 4 and the 911 Targa 4S.
From a Porsche site:
"The track derived GT3 is powered by a 415-hp 3.6-liter flat six-cylinder engine and comes exclusively as a rear-wheel drive coupe with a six-speed manual transmission."

Everyone heres bitching about him endangering the bikers lives. What were u watching! The bikers are just as bad for going that speed on public roads too. They obviously were racing him and they knew the risks aswell. Awesome driving. And the bikes were beating him in acceleration but in overall speed id say the Porsche would win(depending on the bikes of course)

What a moron... i'm brazilian and i can say that really is a deathwish, considering the crappyness of our roads...
There are tons of top notch idiots like this gentleman over here that are heirs to fortunes made by their grandparents with coffee, sugar cane or ethanol. They don't respect other people, don't respect the money hardly earned by his immigrant ancestors.
Cars in Brazil are really expensive (around 2.5x the price in US), so doing that to a porsche in a 2 lanes crappy road in the purest form of stupidity, ignorance and disrespect.
He should be violated and taught of the real value of his life and money.
and yes, i do get a little touchy about speeding in public roads

Not that I really care but here is something to consider:
(from exotic car website)
Porsche 997 911 GT3
Country Of Origin: Germany
Year Of Introduction: 2006
Base Price When New: $106,000
Body Type: 2 Door Coupe
Powertrain Layout: Rear Engine / AWD
Transmission: 6 Speed Manual
Not really a big Porsche fan myself but I do recall Top Gear refering to the AWD GT3 during a silly/funny competition.
Although, would I be the only person finding it strange that the Porsche websites only "sports cars" are 911...
just asking but what ever happened to the 959's and the other models?
Like I said, for your consideration...

No, he shouldn't be doing this on public roads. I just wish there were more road tracks around, though. Here in Canada, all we seem to build are hockey rinks. It's a six hour drive to the nearest road course.

#34 Responding to "...I do recall Top Gear refering to the AWD GT3..." Suggestion: Got to http://www.porsche.com/microsite/911gt3/uk.aspx - then click on the 'start the web special'. In the next window (skip the trailer) and go to the bottom where you will find 'Technical data / Downloads / Further offers'. Click on the 'Technical data' ... It doesn't say anything beside 'Rear-wheel drive'

#35 I didn't realize the 2 models when I copied and pasted the specs from the site... that part was without doubt my bad... but like I said, I am a gear head, but would have never considered myself a Porsche fan so I cannot site the info from memory. But what I am asking is there more than one model porsche that bears the GT3 performance specs? that's all, and I do appreciate the clarification. Personally I stick with the old school heavy metal... Big Blocks all the way, just my preference. And no, not a fan of Wiki either...

#44 Yea I'm with ya on the heavy thump of a big block,nothing else sounds like that.I had a '69 SS Nova back in 1970 with a 396/375 w/4:56 gears, Hedman headers and a set of 10" M&H Racemasters that ran 11:20's in the quarter mile at the NHRA strip near where I live. There is nothing like dumping the clutch @6,000 rpms and feeling the rush. I know these little turbo Honda's and the like can go faster nowadays but it just ain't the same.

as an owner of a 997 gt3. i can confirm the following:
1. it is not all wheel drive. rear wheel drive only. Has a semi-traction control option but this will still not stop you spinning it/ losing the back end with it turned on.
2. there is another spec gt3 called the gt3RS. this is also rear wheel drive.
there is no all wheel drive gt3, hence the reason it is a gt3, they are the race model that is road registable
