VIDEO: The Porsche 996 GT3 RS Track Drive

One Take in a 996 GT3 RS

In Part 1 of a special 5-Part series featuring the greatest hits of the Porsche GT range, we take a very rare 996 GT3 RS right out of the Porsche Museum and on to the race track at the PEC LA. With an underrated 380HP Mezger engine, numerous lightweighting options, and cup car seats, it signaled the return of the RS brand to the modern water-cooled era. And as this model was never sold in America, this will be the first time I ever get to drive one.
