Porsche is occasionally getting some flak for sticking with the same layout in the 911 for the past five decades. That’s not entirely true: while the engine has always been placed behind the rear axle, Zuffenhausen can boast that it rolls out more variations of its quintessential model than any other manufacturer.
One of them, considered the hardcore driver’s choice, is the GT3. Introduced in the 996 model in 1999, it has always come with a naturally aspirated flat-six based on the racing GT1 unit, a manual gearbox, sportier suspension and chassis setup and less amenities inside.
And one more thing, the GT3 would not tolerate fools behind its responsive steering wheel.
