2019 Porsche GT3RS vs Nissan GTR Nismo
This is a cross-post from the Video Clips forum. Fifth Gear pitted the 991.2 GT3 RS against the Nissan GTR Nismo. The first clip was released to YouTube but the full video was never aired in North America.

Thanks for posting. More proof it’s not just brute power that makes a car great. |
One thing that doesn't seem to make it into these types of tests is the GT3/GT3RS's ability to turn these types of laps over and over again; all day long. What I love about these cars the most actually. You buy the car and no mods necessary; you get on track and drive. They can take a beating all day long and they don't get hot, the brakes don't fade. In comparison to cars like the Nismo and Z06, they get hot and cannot maintain a real pace for more than a couple of hard laps.
To me - this is where GT3/GT3RS shines. Thoughts? - Chris. |

Thanks for posting Hula. Always enjoyable to see car comparison Videos, but they obviously picked the wrong 2 cars to compare. What did we learn? On a damp track, 4 wheel drive is advantageous and Turbocharged Engines produce more Torque - DUH!!!! Clearly the 4 wheel Drive Turbo S would have cleaned the Nissan's clock with better acceleration again and again while the Nissan's Tranny would have been done after just a few runs winning that test. The new TTS would have been far more comfortable, quiet and with a better ride quality on the road. And from previous track record lap times, faster on most if not all Tracks. . Hard to beat the versatility of the Turbo S as the do anything - go anyplace, anytime, Swiss Knife of Sports Cars. AND with far superior resale values. |
↑, what turbo resale? My brother bought a 2018 Turbo S with 1400 miles for 45k off sticker!! Crazy depreciation!!
