What Is The New 992 Like To Drive? Ask Chris Harris

1/17/201911:30 estFiled to: 992By: Bradley Brownell1 Comment

There are very few people who have driven the newest version of Porsche's iconic 911. One of those lucky few is Top Gear host Chris Harris. He's been an incredible car reviewer for as long as I can remember, and his is an opinion worth trusting. When you give him the keys to a new 911, he's going to hang the rear end out a bit and tell you the hard …

Chris Harris Drives a 991.2 GT3 to the Ragged Edge of Adhesion

12/26/20188:01 estFiled to: Porsche GT2/GT3By: Tommy ParryComment

Though Chris Harris has an appreciation for the entire Porsche lineup, he genuinely adores the GT3. Few cars make him wax lyrical like the 9,000-rpm screamer does, and troughout this flamboyant lap at the Top Gear test track, Harris shows repeatedly why he believes this 991.2 GT3 "remains the best." There are quite a few things that make this …

Ben Collins—AKA The Stig—Remarks on the Porsche 911’s Appeal

6/29/201810:42 estFiled to: Porsche 997By: Tommy Parry1 Comment

Getting to drive for Top Gear has to have its perks. Not only is the pay good, but sharing the occasional drunken evening with Clarkson, May, and Hammond must be good for at least a few bawdy stories. As the Stig, Ben Collins also got to sample just about every desirable car under the sun. For that reason, his words counts for a lot—and that makes …

Climbing a Ski Slope in a 911 Turbo S

2/19/20184:28 estFiled to: Porsche TurboBy: Chris CushingComment

This sort of publicity stunt is a near guaranteed crowd pleaser. Since Audi sent a 100 up a ski jump in 1986, it's been repeated several times, including by Audi themselves. While classic Audis worked wonderfully on snow, the original Quattro systems were decidedly old school.  The driver-controlled locking diffs at the center and rear made for a …

Peugeot 205 Rallye vs. Porsche 911R: A Fair Comparison?

9/6/20171:04 estFiled to: Porsche vs.By: Chris Cushing1 Comment

I get to drive and photograph some very cool cars for a living, and for that I consider myself very fortunate. In that regard, Chris Harris is a much more fortunate. But, when you've experienced as many cars as Mr. Harris, do you become prone to making some absurd comparisons? Simply based on the title this latest video, comparing a 911R to a …

Watch Chris Harris Destroy Yet Another Set of Tires. This Time on the 991.2 GT3

8/14/20173:32 estFiled to: Porsche GT2/GT3By: 993C4S2 Comments

At this point, the newest version of Porsche's venerable 911 GT3, the 991.2 version, has been reviewed ad nauseam by all the usual suspects. We know it has 493 HP making it capable of a top speed of 198 MPH and only takes 7.3 seconds to reach 100 MPH from a standstill. Despite all that, what we haven't seen is Chris Harris sliding one around his …

Top Gear’s Chris Harris Take a R8 V10, Acura NSX and a 911 Turbo Drag racing….in a downpour.

6/16/20171:05 estFiled to: Porsche vs.By: Marvin Waters1 Comment

Top Gear presenter and resident hot-shoe Chris Harris is not one to waste an opportunity, no matter how bad the weather is. Chris Harris tested the Acura NSX, Audi R8 V10 and the Porsche 911 Turbo at Bruntingthopre Proving Ground, Leicestshire and the weather was wet even for the UK. All three automobiles are highly technical and feature …

Chris Harris Thinks The New Boxster Had a “Personality Transplant”

5/15/20178:23 estFiled to: Porsche BoxsterBy: Pepper Girl3 Comments

And he doesn't think it's a good thing. By now, we all know that the 718 Boxster switched from a normally aspirated flat-six to a turbo charged flat-four. On paper the new Boxster is better in almost every way than its predecessor. It's faster zero to 60, faster zero to 100 and faster overall with a top speed of 177 MPH. As Chris says, "that's …

Porsche 911 R vs. Aston V12 Vantage

10/9/201611:46 estFiled to: Porsche vs.By: 993C4SComment

The 911 R was pretty much sold out before the general Porsche public even knew it was official. The majority of the allocation going to those that either purchased a 918 or those who are otherwise part of Porsche's VIP program. That's why I'm always surprised when another 911 R video comes out. By now, we all know how great the 911 R is, we know …

Video: Chris Harris Drives The New 911 Turbo

8/12/201610:15 estFiled to: Porsche TurboBy: Bradley Brownell4 Comments

I'd like to start by making it known that it is a shame Chris Harris' stuff has been moved from YouTube to a native video player on the Top Gear website. Mostly because this has made it so much harder for me to become aware of his awesome videos when they come out. This particular video was released last month, and I wouldn't have known about it if …
