Car Chat Podcast #017 - REVIEW : 997.2 GT3 RS vs 991.2 Manual GT3

in , ,

Bringing another dimension to the podcast, I got the chance to drive a Porsche 911 991.2 Manual GT3 back to back with my GT3 RS and here are my thoughts. I did a video over on youtube on the day but I've had a chance to really sit down and have a think about the 2 cars.
