Porsche has introduced the 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 a new model of the 911 series which is more powerful, faster, and sophisticated compared to the previous models. The 911 GT3 gives an impressive driving both on the roads and racetracks.
The Porsche 911 GT3 is the latest evolution of an iconic sports car. Embodying the essence of more than 23,000 Porsche racing victories, the 911 GT3 is the ultimate integration of driver and car and arrives in the UK this autumn
In developing the second generation of the Type 997 911 GT3 into the most sporting and dynamic road-going 911 ever with a naturally-aspirated power unit, Porsche has applied a wide range of know-how gained in motor sport. Indeed, this is precisely why the new Porsche 911 GT3 is truly impressive not only on the road, but also on the race track.
The Porsche 911 GT3 offers an even higher standard above all in two key areas: performance and driving dynamics. The proven six-cylinder naturally aspirated power unit now develops a maximum output of 435 hp (320 kW), up 20 hp over its predecessor. This results first and foremost from an increase in engine capacity by 200 cc to 3.8-litres and from improved cylinder head gas flow: now not only the intake, but for the first time also the exhaust camshafts, are adjusted by VarioCam.
A further important point is that, through its upgraded power and performance, the flat six 'boxer' engine also offers a significant increase in torque at medium engine speeds, a benefit of particular significance in everyday motoring. Clearly, this also means a further improvement in performance; the new Porsche 911 GT3 accelerates from a standstill to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 4.1 seconds and reaches 99 mph (160 km/h) in 8.2 seconds. Top speed is 194 mph..
The new Porsche 911 GT3 offers increased grip and stability at high speeds, courtesy of specific modifications to the car's aerodynamics The cars dynamics are improved which comes with a sport variant, where the stability management is done in traction control and stability control. The operations can be done even in extreme driving conditions with a single button touch.
The aerodynamics of the 911 GT3 has been modified where the down forces at the front and rear are increased twice, pushing down compared to the other models. The modified LED light clusters, bi-xenon headlights, inlets and outlets is another major attraction.
The discs are larger and of light weight which is covered with aluminum. The ventilated brakes stand provides consistent braking and stand for longer periods. The major feature is the lift system at the front axle where the car can be lifted up to 30 millimeters with a single button touch.
The Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) fitted to the 911 GT3 has enabled Porsche engineers to make the springs and anti-roll bars stiffer yet again, thus ensuring even more precise handling in the PASM 'sports' mode. However, the PASM ensures appropriate ride comfort suitable for everyday use when in the 'normal' PASM mode. The Porsche 911 GT3 rides on new, lighter wheels in a racing-inspired design - with a centre locking nut - fitted with ultra-high performance (UHP) tyres. Tyre pressure monitoring is fitted as standard
911 GT3 is a Porsche Vehicle Tracking System (VTS), a sophisticated vehicle security package approved to Thatcham Category 5 standard, and customers will also be able to explore the potential of their new car by participating in a complimentary course at the new Porsche Driving Experience Centre, Silverstone.
