2023 Porsche 911 GT3

The 992-generation GT3 is the road car that most closely follows Porsche Motorsport's racing playbook: a 4.0-litre naturally aspirated flat-six making 503 bhp, revving beyond 9,000rpm, with double-wishbone front suspension borrowed from the 911 RSR. This 2023 example is finished in Gentian Blue and has the PDK gearbox, which brings 0-62mph in 3.4 seconds and a 198mph top speed. For most buyers the PDK is the quicker and more usable choice, and it hasn't diluted the car's character.

The options are well chosen for a car that will be driven. The Lightweight Carbon Roof, carbon interior package and carbon mirror upper trims and front window triangle trims sit alongside black high-gloss brake calipers. The Front Axle Lift System takes the worry out of driveways and speed bumps, and the Chrono Package with lap-trigger preparation suits track days. Comfort and practicality come from the 18-way Adaptive Sports Seats Plus, BOSE surround sound, rear ParkAssist with reversing camera, a storage package and privacy glass. Tinted Matrix LED headlights with PDLS Plus and Porsche logo door courtesy lights round off the spec.

The car shows 16,124 miles from its 73-plate registration. That is enough use to show it has been driven as intended, but it is far from high for a GT3. Gentian Blue is among the more distinctive standard-range colours and works well against the carbon details. The page does not state the number of previous owners or the service history, so these would be worth confirming before purchase.
