I guess they don't think they under steer then drive the GT4 platform, then all 911's feel like under steer again :-p

No one ever said the 458s under steers, still the best car to own today imo, and just won Autocar 5 star award as test champion !

"Ferrari 458 Speciale -
Like all great performance cars, it feels over-provisioned for the sheer grip and agility, it communicates effusively and challenges you to get on its level or find the limit of your own in the process. It's sensational in its handling and extravagant in its commitment to the pursuit of speed and thrills."

So looking forward to the 458 Speciale test versus 991 GT3RS test. Hope that it is a good one that encompasses all aspects of ownership as well as performance .

mmmmmm on my 3rd 991Turbos, after over 30k miles since Aug 13, don't agree that the width of the car is an issue, never a problem in any way...Also why no mention of the induction noise......look forward to the vid.......
Hi Apolo , where have you been ? I sort of think these initial impressions are a little understated. We have Car thinking that maybe that the RS is not quite up to being a DD and My mate Chris Harris is moaning that perhaps it is a little too wide. There is still some nonsense about manual gear boxes though as Andreas P, whatever states is that if you want the fastest you want the PDK box . Cannot wait for the Vid!!

Wonder when we will see a comparative road test between the GT3 and the RS. Be nice to throw in a Speciale as well.

Have a look at Autocar's latest track test of the RS. Driver makes some interesting comparisons with the GT4

Watched the video last night, then watched it again with Molly. What a fantastic car! Waiting for all the knockers to come on now!! Well done to EVO for producing the most professional version. Think I might just watch it again.
