'MORE EXHILARATING' 911 GT3 MARKS MODEL'S 25TH

Sharper look, updated engine and more options for hardcore Porsche

- FELIX PAGE

Porsche is celebrating the 25th anniversary of the 911 GT3 with a round of updates for its track-honed halo model, to bring a new look, extra options and a "more exhilarating" drive.

The updated version of the most extreme 911 arrives, priced from £157,300, a quarter of a century after Porsche first used the GT3 name for the racehomologated, rangetopping version of the 996-generation 911.

Chief among the upgrades are a series of subtle mechanical tweaks, including revised cylinder heads, sharper camshafts from the GT3 RS, improved oil coolers and new throttle valves with enhanced flow.
