Porsche 911 GT3: still the best

First Opinion

The new GT3 is a stunningly accomplished car. The howl from the exhaust alone is enough to sell it, and while a price tag of £81,000 certainly isn't cheap, compared to rivals

from Ferrari and Lamborghini, it's a relative bargain. Perhaps the only thing that lets it down is that the solidly built interior lacks flair. But this doesn't detract from the fact that

you can lap a track all day in it and comfortably drive home at the end of it. In short, this is the finest sports car in the world.
