Ruben Zeltner may have more modern rally cars in his stable, but his white 996 GT3, kindly nicknamed "Zebra," still makes regular appearances at German hillclimbs and rally events. At this year's ADAC Rallye Köln-Ahrweiler, an 87-mile-long rally outside of Cologne, the two-time Germany rally champion brought his trusty 996 to cover the fourteen …

Porsche Nets A Double Podium In An Uncharacteristically Docile Macau Grand Prix Weekend
The Macau Grand Prix weekend is always on my list of must-watch racing action every year when it rolls around. The tight street circuit usually produces some extremely close and tight action, particularly among the GT3 class. This race draws teams and manufacturer support from all over the world, with some of the greatest drivers duking it out in a …

When I say that the Porsche 911 GT3/GT3 RS—particularly the 991 generation—makes one of the best sounds in the entire automotive kingdom, that's not brand loyalty talking. The scream of the 3.8/4.0-liter six is enough to make the hair stand up on the back of your neck, and that's with the factory exhaust setup. When the engine is fitted with …

The Hoonigans might not be well known among our readers, but they are one of the biggest automotive YouTube channels around. Their audience is in the millions, and their videos are geared towards the tinkering type of gearheads who dream about high-quality AN fittings and elevate automotive customization to the level of fetish. This naturally …

The GT3's formula is something that stirs any driver with a drop of motor oil in their veins. A high-revving naturally-aspirated flat six engine closely related to the engine used in motorsports, rear wheel-drive, a lightweight construction, upgraded aerodynamics, and track-focused suspension made the GT3 a must for the drivers wanting a little …

With the right modifications, the 996 GT3 becomes a car that will sway the most skeptical, please the frigid, and bring out the best in the timid. Not that it was slow from the factory, but with some talented tuners and a skilled set of hands making the most out of the least loved of the GT lineup, we see that it—like every other member of its …

The signature bark of the 996 GT3 RSR is unmistakable to the sonically sensitive Porschephile. They recognize the dry blat-blat-blat of the 3.6-liter under deceleration and heel-toe and from years ago when they heard those same sounds bounce off the walls at places like Sebring and Daytona. The rasp, the throatiness, and the absence of gearbox …

A few years ago, we discussed the idea of a GT3 Cabriolet (below). Some of us thought it was a great idea, and others not so much. It took almost five years, but Porsche finally built something that is basically the 991 GT3 Cabriolet that we asked for, but better. Consider the 991.2 Speedster a send off for the chassis. This is among the last cars …

It's bizarre to hear someone refer to the 997 GT3 as a representative of the "analog era" of supercars. Though it didn't seem so at the time, by modern standards the GT3 is decidedly uncomplicated. Though it comes from the era of alphabet soup, its combination of traction control, PASM active suspension, and even Sports Chrono makes for more of a …
