Default Chris Harris says the RS is the BEST all-round sports/track car ever made

Ok many of you probably know Chris Harris who is extremely popular on Youtube and now on TopGear UK as well. He's an amazing driver and great reviewer of cars of all types.

He just posted on instagram and I quote "This is still the best all-round sports/track car ever made. Stunning. Get out and use these things!"

Now a little context. This guy has driven EVERYTHING worth driving both on and off the track. LaFerrari, 918, P1, Veyron, 675LT, 650S, 911 Turbo S, Cayman GT4, Ferrari 458/488/TDF/F12, Atom, BAC Mono, you name it. He drove it.

So pretty impressive when Harris says this is the best all-round sports/track car EVER made.

Hold onto your RS's. I think the value is going to be headed higher.

I always enjoy his videos. And yes, he should be the main host on Top Gear.

Hopefully this means that he will be doing something with the car for Top Gear. Enjoyed his review of the F12 TDF yesterday.

This and the other GT cars have one thing the competitors lack, the heart and soul of Herr Preuninger and his team -- and caring and attention to detail eclipses money every day of the week. As I have said for years, there is a spirit at Porsche that I have not seen in any other car company.

Just realized if Harris had zero miles on his car last Thursday, by today he would have already eclipsed the 2000 mile break-in Porsche recommends on the RS! That's quick!

The 991 RS is "the legend". Such praise from someone as universally respected as Harris provides the gravitas to secure the RS in the pantheon of all time greatest performance cars.
