Driver reviews

Aurelijus Rusteika: “This is the last GT3 RS that was only available with a manual gearbox. It’s a stiff ride, so a good warm-up is key. The interesting design of the gearbox and the flywheel makes it really noisy at idle. When you start the engine, the titanium exhaust tips emit a really nice sound and invite you to the racetrack.

The amount of power and short gear travel make it really easy to redline. That’s this car’s Achilles heel.”
