The substantial spoiler is one of the most striking attributes of any Porsche.
This current model GT3 has come to the end of its run.
The new GT3 will not be offered with a manual gearbox.
Some purist will tell you that giving up the manual option kills off a little of what makes a Porsche special.
This model will also be the last one without electronic power steering.
This 997 GT3 may well become a future collectors favourite.
GT3 badges are literally all over this car.
That manual stick will soon be a thing of the past in the GT3.
It would be a shame not to take the old girl out for a spin to see what Porsche are leaving behind.
The carbon ceramic brake option was fitted to this car.
A track day was in order to say a proper good bye to the last of the manual GT3s
Silverstone is the home of British Grand Prix and Porsche has a permanent presence there too.
Full systems check before take off.
It's a badge that inspires trust that you're about to have a good time behind the wheel.
There were a few not so distant relatives of the GT3 at the track too.
Porsche have their own mini circuit inside the Silverstone grounds.
The car comes alive out on the track.
With all of the driver aids turned off the car is eager to get the back out.
One of Porsche's drivers was on hand to really show us what it could do.
This is a road legal car but when pushing it hard you realise it was intended as a track toy.
The straight line speed is impressive
We will miss the manual GT3 but look forward to driving its PDK only replacement soon.
