Awesome work as per usual my friend.
Really enjoyed our day in sunny Wales filming the car, didn’t realise how much work goes into making a video, you are a perfectionist.
The rolling shots are epic and the commentary is sublime.
Thanks ever so much for featuring my car on the channel, Maya was made up to see her plate on TV 😍
Best wishes to you, Jilly and the family for 2021 and look forward to seeing you both soon x
Thank you again Royd for letting me out in your stunner of a car, lets try and catch up again soon
Thought that was yours mate! It's Jed by the way!
@@suewoodward7457 you had a sex change? 😂
this is a hidden gem of a car channel, the video quality and production is exceptional, as are the featured cars, this 3RS is a case in point.
very kind of you to say
have to agree si tipo
Drove one in anger at a Porsche Experience day last year, also drove the 991 GT3 RS & GT2 RS - This for me, was the best. The induction sound it makes in the cabin after about 4-5k has stayed with me and I have sworn that I will own one, one day, some way.
Hope you get one 👍🏼
stunning video👍👍👍 the 997 3RS is quite a car... I always learn lots watching your videos RB... we must do something together in 21... best to Jilly too ... see you next time Dave👍👍
thanks Dave I also learn from your videos, catch up soon
So much more exciting than the new stuff in the OPC. Great colour, fabulous noise ........
Another great video Mr Bailey.
thanks Martin, glad you liked :-)
Going 10+ years back. Great way to start 2020...Happy New Year, Roger.
cheers Rod Happy New Year
This demonstrates quite clearly how exciting a 911 can be compared with a modern 992
That’s a mean green machine Mr Bailey .....The Mrs and I watched on the BIG SCREEN we thoroughly enjoyed yet another brilliant entertaining video with amazing clarity ,Great camerawork and commentary
covered it all Roger.
kind words Rob thank you, see you soon hopefully
wow stunning video Mr Bailey, sensational classic 997GT3RS - the best 911 imo, this was worth the wait !
thanks Pedro nice to see you again
Having been lucky enough to drive one of these for an afternoon, I have to say its the arguably the perfect drivers car and the catalyst to go from "quite liking Porsches" to "absolutely having to own one"
What an absolutely awesome video Roger of an utterly stunning and amazing car. Well done 😉👌🏻
thanks TM good seeing you again
Roger Bailey - making a fine motor car sound like a phenomenal fancy dinner! Dropping another LIKE on your video Roger - as usual... very well done! Watching and Supporting! P.S. - Out Takes are awesome!

Hi Roger, superb 10 mins or so...Location, shooting and commentary on point, great job...
Might let you have a go of mine now, different suspension/ exhaust, same 997 RS though..
Keep up the good work, best wishes for the New Year..👍
ROBERT PETER Smith thank you, I'd love to have a go of yours :-) best wishes for 2021 👍
Thanks Roger for another great video, what a great start to 2021:)

thanks, will do Barry
Your videos are not very frequent but when they come they are superb and well worth waiting for, the car from the before time belonging to Royd is amazing thanks to both of you and Jilly for sharing this, now I await the next video, cheers 🥂
cheers !
Bought myself a 997 GT3 last year. I have a humble respect for the performance of the car. A beast of a car to drive. If i am not careful i can loose my licence quick smart.😂😂 Still i love every bits of it.....
Great Video Roger and what a great road to drive such an awesome car on!👍👍
thanks Russell 👍👍
Great review thanks Roger. What a lovely car and what a nice thing to do to lend it to you it for your review. Keep them up mate all all the best. Tony

thanks Daz, great to see you again, Happy New Year !
Well I've had 2 wasteful days in the house..Roger I'm up early tomora for a drive out in my 04 3.6 targa south Yorkshire...you have got my juices flowing great vid all the best for 2021to you and all the subscribers of this channel.
Darren, give it some stick ! legally of course - happy new year 😊
Another great video Roger! Think I need to have a rethink on my next performance toy :-)
Thanks Tony, I think a flat 6 would suit you
@@RogerBaileyOnCars I agree Roger. Might need one more superlative video to tip me over the edge!
Another top video and car Rog, keep up the good work. Loved the outtakes as well😁
Thanks John, and you made it to the very end ! 👍😊
Brilliant review, really tells you what it's like to experience.
Glad you enjoyed it Niwou
I thank you for showing the cars to us in a way they truly are.
Another fantastic video Roger, thank you. Keep them coming please haha and have a great 2021.
Thanks josh, you too!
awesome production quality, only 10k subscribers though ?? word needs to get out, and this GT3RS I never realised how amazing these are, top work roger bailey
cheers Gary Glad you enjoy it!
I can only liken this 997 version of the GT3 RS to be the Velociraptor fo the 911 stock.
Old. Fast. Nimble. Loud. And only bites other lesser vehicles. Though, personally, I wouldn't take it in green of with a manual 'box. The manual 'box thing is purely because I'm at an age where I just prefer auto 'boxes. Especially if it's made by Porsche :-))...
I've always found it odd that with porsche, 2 is more than 3. But it does make the 3, somewhat, a better road car! That exhaust note gives me goosebumps :-))...
Oh! @2:21 into the video. Did I spot the Blonde stalker loitering? :-\\... And at the end too. Full frontal as well ;-))...
Another stunning video Mr. Bailey. Hope you and your good lady, Jilly, have a great 2021. Looking forwards to more of your stunning videos :-))... 🎇🎆🍾
love it, yes its a velociraptor ! thanks for sharing your thoughts in your inimitable way, and for watching right to the very end. happy 2021 TZ and best wishes from RB & JB 👍
The numbering system for the GT cars is from the FIA racing categories. GT1 was the top back in the day, hence the GT1 that raced at Lemans. Each of Porsche’s models fits within the racing category hence GT1, 2, 3 and 4.
@@gam88a - Ah! That explains it. Thank you. For ages, without looking at all the car stats, I always assumed that the GT3 was more powerful than the GT2. Until the penny dropped that it wasn't.
@@thezanzibarbarian5729 I can understand that as generally with road cars the bigger the number the better the car (model or engine type). Race series the opposite of that. F1 a good example 😉
Another special motor from Porsche projected through another quality video. Analogue cars like this one are surely worth their weight as we move ever closer to the brave new world of Electron powered cars. Thanks for sharing the experience.
thanks Jon yes these old cars are worth holding onto
certainly a golden oldie, a cracking car and you are right not many will ever get to drive one, brilliant video
Glad you enjoyed it
Subbed. Great video.
nicely written! very nice
Thank you! Cheers!
another superbly crafted video Mr Bailey, really enjoyed this, a highly desirable Porsche
Glad you enjoyed it
Wonderful analogue machine. My second favourite RS after the even rarer 996 equivalent. Great vid.
Absolutely loved the video and loved the car. Top class review as always 👍👍👍
thanks Gio 👍👍👍
Brilliant video! 10/10!
a blast from the past ! superb car and video !!
Glad you enjoyed it
Perfect review of a stunning car brilliant video,
thanks YPG
not yellow though ?
brilliant car brilliant review
excellent
8:52 - really says it all. I'm in the market for one, think I'm dreaming though, used performance car market has gone bananas over the past 18 months, can't see any coming up for sale here in aus. Having driven one as well as a 2020 GT3 (road and track respectively), both are great cars. But the 997.1 is the perfect balance of on road and track usability, performance, size, involvement and looks (especially in black and orange, those rims are glorious)
hope you get one sometime
this is the car I want more than any other, great video
Stunning video Roger .... as always ! B W to you & J
Thanks Kev, nice to hear from you, best wishes and happy new year
Thanks for sharing an event and experience in my grail car 👌🏻I’ll have one in orange
hope you get one sometime !
Great video Roger, thanks. Weather looked glorious, the countryside and roads even better. I'd love to see a comparison between this and the Gen 2 GT3RS. Do you have another buddy that could arrange that? LOL
thanks John, if I find one I'll let you know :-)
no front number plate now means 3 penalty points in 2022, that said its a great video
Great car , great video as always Roger 👍🏻👍🏻
thanks Dave, good seeing you again 👍👍
Nice video Roger! Brilliant cinematography.
thanks mr super quick, good to see you again
@@RogerBaileyOnCars No problem!
an exciting car which is beautifully demonstrated here Roger
thanks Gina
Really enjoyed this video. Fabulous driving roads too.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it Huw
another fantastice video roger well done mate
cheers PC
Of all the cars I've driven and owned.... Ferrari...(458 and F12) other Porsches... more modern GT3RS... including the latest interation of the 991....
THIS CAR IS THE MOST THRILL INDUCING, TOP OF THE VOICE SCREAMING CAR I'VE EVER DRIVEN... AND ENJOYED.
great review.
thanks, yes its a bit good isn't it
Great video Roger, in addition we need to remember that the 997 is the heaviest 911 ever produced, in fact a 992 Carrera S manual kerb wight is 10 kg less than a 997 Carrera. This reminds me to have a look at the RS model’s perhaps 997 GT3 RS is lighter than the 991 GT3 and GT3 RS. It needs to with its smaller footprint 👣 I’m going to check when I arrive home 🏠. Take care...
thanks Janko😊👍 let us know if you find out
@@RogerBaileyOnCars I must admit I was a bit disappointed at the 997. Remember the 997 has a smaller footprint and a manual gearbox in comparison to the 991.1 but the newer 991.1 GT3 RS is only 45kg heavier at 1420kg. But again the 997 carries the heaviest body of them all. Kurb wight of the 997.1 GT3 RS is 1375 kg. At least you will feel 45kg :-)
@Janko Lind good research Janko, very interesting, I guess Porsche got extra serious about weight saving with those titanium bits on the 991
Janko, not sure where you’ve got your figures from, but they aren’t correct. The 997 was certainly not the heaviest 911 produced and lighter than the 993. A 992 (1505 kg DIN) is heavier than a 997 Carrera (1395kg DIN). The 997 GT3 is in fact lighter than the 996 GT3 with the same equipment, with the datasheets showing 5kg more, but has 20kg of AC as standard so is in fact lighter than the 996 variant.
Imagine this if it was yellow 👌
Súper súper nice videos like always!!
Thanks Francysco 👍
Great video, really enjoyed that.
Glad to hear it!
The 997 real is perfection. I can only hope Porsche will dial back the size of 911 going forward lol.
only one car better than this and its the 3RS4.0ltr 997, hope you get to drive one, fantastic video btw very enjoyable
Thanks! 👍
Excellent video sir!
Thank you kindly!
Subbed , how are you driving without a number plate on front isn’t that illegal?
welcome to the channel Bob, owners of these sorts of cars often don't fit front number plates so to keep a clean looking front end and avoid drilling holes, this one had a self adhesive plate with it.
@@RogerBaileyOnCars oh thanks for clearing that up for me
great video, which you prefer 997RS or 718 GT4?
Great video Roger
thanks Mark
inspiring video
Glad you think so!
very very good
Many many thanks
just saw the out takes at the very end, nearly missed them, funny !
good spot
Dream car.
Great road you have there. How much would that little green car be worth
not sure circa £120k ?? ish
Roger what roads are these you’re driving on ?
Snowdonia
Do they come in yellow

hello Sylvie !!!! nice to see you again Tu éclaire ma journée ! 🍾
Hi Roger I'm looking to pick up a new Porsche this year, thinking about the 997.1 and 997.2 turbo and turbo s as well as the 991.1 gts. What do you think is the best option as far as value holding up and possible future appreciation
this is difficult to say, I'd budget for each of them to depreciate gently for the near future and if they appreciate that will be a bonus, you'll need to budget in any dealer cut into the cars value at around 7% to 10%, so try them all out if you can, get a decent inspection and enjoy the experience, all of the above will be rewarding to own.
997.1 Turbo comes with the same basic motor as the GT models designed by Mezger. That wasn’t the case for the .2, and there is certainly a cult following of the Mezger engines, so would expect a .1 a better long term buy. 991’s are produced in massive numbers (6500 GT3RS’) so don’t see them holding values in the same way.
As an owner of a 997.2 Turbo, they are significantly more rare than the 997.1 Turbo, especially in 6 MT. From 2010-2012 there something like 500 manuals total across Coupe and CAB in the US. But, with the 997.1 turbo you get the Mezger motor, versus the new DFI motor in the 997.2 turbo. If you want maximum retention of value, I would buy a 997.2 manual turbo, followed by a GT 3 RS (with the Mezger motor). Both will be quite rare in the future, and may hold value and possibly go up in value if kept stock and mileage is not unreasonably high. I drove a 997 GT3, but just found it to much of a race car for the street. I preferred the thrust and torque of the turbo over the GT cars.
@@markjames8160 Good advice mark , I would love a gt3 rs but like you said it's too much of a race car for what my proposes are and they are a little bit above my price range. So all things considered i would likely go with the .2 manual turbo as my first option if I can find a reasonable one near me and if not I might go 991.1 gts being I fell in love with a beautiful guards red example when I test drove it a couple of days ago.
@@Thespydercoronin GT3 a little less hardcore than the RS....but is only marginal. I don’t drive my GT3 daily because I don’t have to, but definitely a Turbo is more usable daily and of course even today still rapid.
991 a much better car all round, but nowhere near as raw as the 997’s. Proof of this is that I know guys daily driving their 991 GT3RS’ to and from work.
991 GTS a great car 👍🏼
What do you think a 991.1 g t s will do in the next couple of years value wise with under ten thousand mile example thinking of pulling the trigger many thanks in advance
Great idea! check it for smoke on full throttle - in fact get a full inspection even tho its only done 10k, most people agree its a sublime car, I had one for a year loved every moment, I'd expect very gentle depreciation and you'll have to swallow the dealers mark up of £5 to 7k I don't expect values to rise any time soon.
All Porsche GT cars are going to be collect cars or classic cars in the future. Especially when everything goes electric
hope so
“Touch of Traction Control”. You forgot the words ‘utterly’ and ‘useless’ in that statement 😂
Always switch mine off to avoid it cooking rear brakes, especially on track.
you have a 997gt3rs ?
@@RogerBaileyOnCars no RS unfortunately, but a 997.1 GT3 Clubsport. It’s in RS Orange though 😉. I’d have bought an RS if there was one available at the time, but minimal changes between the two cars on the Gen 1’s really anyway, I just like big wings though 😂
dont miss the out takes at the end
you noticed
997.1 GT3 RS 1'909 pieces
997.2 GT3 RS:1619 built
this car with low miles on it is still 200+ k is USD.... it better perform well
Confusing as you did not change gear above 5k , and this car does >80mph in 2nd so I have no idea how you got to rev it out in 3rd. The reviews very bias as these car without the cup final drive are frustrating to drive on the public roads.
Another great video Roger! 🙌🏻😎
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks
