Driver reviews

The GT3 RS model was introduced in two new colors: Lava Orange and Ultraviolet. This one is especially unique. The car is practically new, with only 197 km on the odometer. Aurelijus Rusteika: “The suspension and chassis are designed specifically for the track, making the car incredibly stable and agile in corners—it feels glued to the road. The engine sound above 8000 rpm is like that of a true race car. The steering is extremely responsive, giving you confidence on the road. With this car, you don’t just want to enjoy it on the road; it makes you want to race on the track.”
