Yet Chris Harris has just taken delivery of a 992 GT3 Touring to use as his everyday car.

Shirley the question should be "which one do I sell?".

If you went for the GTS would you get another chance to buy a new GT3 at list price ?

As a daily I'd be more tempted with a GTS to be honest.

If doing occasional track work and this is to be a second car, the GT3.
Buying and owning a brand new GT3 is proper bucket list stuff for a petrol head, and the Touring is even cooler IMO.

So unless Ian ticked that box previously, once he's done the above, he'll be in a position to decide what to do next. Maybe he'd have some fun with it and then change to the boring one for a practical reason, maybe he'll never want to be without a GT3 again, but right now, there's only one option that allows him to find out.

This, I don't take my cars on track (well I will do a drive limits day in the TVR as a learning experience but it won't go on a trackday) so I'd be more interested in what it's like on the public roads in the UK, if the GTS is easier to live with I'd have that.

No time, must decide!!

Are there any good road tests of the GT3 in the U.K. ?

I’ve only seen Harry’s vid.

He's probably had Litchfield do something with the suspension, I think he did on previous ones. Or maybe that was the M2. I can't keep up!

Get the GTS.

Well, someone had to say it.

Surely it depends what else you have in your garage, right?

The GT3 could have actual solid pipes instead of springs for all I care I'd still want that - just to get the kick out of that engine, that focus, that edge.

The correct answer is both obviously, but if you have to pick one there's literally no contest.
