2022 Porsche 911 GT3
Starting at $162.450

Highs Glorious naturally aspirated flat-six, unrivaled steering fidelity, inspiring to drive on the track or the street.
Lows Stick-shift equals slower acceleration, stiffest damper setting is too stiff for street use, carbon-fiber-roof option only saves 2 pounds.
Verdict The GT3's special engine and transcendent chassis make it the purest and most rewarding 911 to drive.

Overview
With an exclusive naturally aspirated engine and race car-inspired components, the 2022 Porsche 911 GT3 is optimized for driver engagement and track-day glory. Porsche enhances its most visceral 911 variant with a control-arm front suspension—the first on a 911 road car—and an unusual rear wing that's mounted at the top instead of the bottom. The GT3 is also the only 911 that's not turbocharged, and the responsive nature and immersive sounds of its 502-hp 4.0-liter flat-six qualify as inspirational. The specialness of the rear-mounted mill is further realized by the telepathic seven-speed PDK automatic transmission or the rewarding six-speed manual. Thanks to a unique suspension setup and track-focused tire options, the 2022 911 GT3 has a surprisingly supple, albeit firm, ride and incredible steering feel that are just a few of the reasons it's so exhilarating to drive. They also help it make our 2022 Editors' Choice list.

What's New for 2022?

For 2022, the 911 GT3 is back! We've followed its return for the 992-generation from the reveal of the prototype version to Porsche's deluge of official details. An even racier GT3 RS is also surely in the works.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
GT3: $162,450
GT3 Touring: $163,450
GT3 RS: $200,000 (est)

As with the last generation, Porsche will eventually offer three slightly different versions of the GT3, starting with the standard car that is out now, an even more track-oriented RS model, and a Touring variant the tones down the racy look by nixing the big rear wing. This time the GT3 Touring will be available with both transmissions instead of just the manual gearbox when it goes on sale early next year. We'd recommend taking advantage of the Porsche Experience Center. For $395 (plus a $50 damage waiver fee), you will be receive coaching and track time in your new Porsche at either the Atlanta or Los Angeles location. If you don't live in those areas, you can travel and book time in one of Porsche's vehicles instead. Prices for those experiences range from as low as $400 to as high as $900 depending on location and model.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance
At the tail end of the 911 GT3 is a familiar naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six that makes 502 horsepower. The engine is essentially identical to the one that powered the last 911 Speedster we tested, which spun to 9000 rpm and sung a hypnotic tune. The new GT3 offers both a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic (a.k.a. PDK) or a six-speed manual. The PDK-equipped example we drove showcased the automatic's intuitive behavior as well as the engine's spirited responses and intoxicating soundtrack. The most notable performance upgrade on the GT3 is its control-arm front suspension, which is inspired by the racecar version and is a first for a production 911. Combine that with standard adaptive dampers and sticky Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2–or stickier Cup R–tires and the coupe's chassis provides tremendous cornering grip and unfiltered feedback. While the ride is undeniably firm, it's never punishing, and the electrically assisted steering is so divine that it deserves anointment as the best in the business. Period. Stopping the purist's Porsche are massive binders that include a carbon-ceramic option that provides heroic braking power, easy modulation, and resists fade at the track.

Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG

The EPA has rated the 911 GT3 at 15 mpg city and 18 mpg highway when equipped with the automatic transmission. Going with the manual transmission drops the city figure to 14 mpg. Once we have the opportunity to run one on our 75-mph highway fuel-economy route, which is part of our extensive testing regimen, we can evaluate its real-world mpg.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
The GT3's interior is very similar to the rest of the 911 lineup, with a clean design and simple layout that pays homage to past iterations of Porsche's quintessential sports car. However, there are a handful of unique characteristics throughout the cabin. The GT3's gauge cluster still features a prominent analog tachometer flanked by digital displays, but it gets a specific GT mode that puts all important information directly on the displays surrounding the central tach.
