In this exhilarating episode by TheSmokingTire, the team tackles the formidable GT3 RS in the treacherous wet conditions, pushing the limits of this track-focused beast on the street. With 518 horsepower and 343 lbs of torque, the 992 RS is a menacing presence, resembling an angry wasp on steroids. Despite its power and shorty gears, the team questions its street suitability due to its stiff suspension and lack of a true Grand Touring mode.

As they navigate the challenging road, the team delves into the intricate details of the 992 RS, highlighting its unique features like carbon fiber suspension components and aerodynamic enhancements. The car's aggressive design and precise engineering reflect Porsche's commitment to high-performance driving. However, they ponder whether such hardcore performance is practical for everyday street use, suggesting the spider RS as a more comfortable alternative for road driving.

While the GT3 RS excels on the track with its impressive Nurburgring lap time, the team emphasizes the importance of matching the car to one's driving style and preferences. They draw parallels to the world of fashion, likening the GT3 RS to an Affliction shirt that may not suit everyone's taste. Ultimately, they caution against purchasing the GT3 RS for street driving, citing its extreme stiffness and uncompromising nature.
