There's a LOT of rear grip, and I mean a lot, 295's out back and the engine pressing down hard on those fat rears. I feel like my car could easily handle another 100HP without breaking a sweat. It's hard to be playful with that much grip on exit.
Have you driven a 997 GT3/GT3 RS ?

Thoughts.
Was with the BMW vehicles for 22 years and recently acquired a 2015 911 Carrera S with PDK. Was always a MT guy.
The 911 is such a different car. Absolutely love it and do not miss new technology in the G80 or any turbos or artificial feel and sound...
The 3.8l NA engine is a perfect fit for this vehicle.
