Earlier this week we took a look at a video review from Autocar UK comparing the GT-R, the R8 V10, and the new 997.5 Turbo. Now we’ve also got a splendid collection of photography to go along with it. Nothing quite like a perfect photograph of a bulgingly brutal supercar, innit eh?

That title was an absurd mouthful, but I couldn’t think of any way to shorten it up. Sorry. 

I know, we didn’t see another 911 variant coming either!  Although that video of those people being ripped around the track in this car might have given it away. Maybe not though. Well here it is, the revised 997.5 GT3 in all its extroverted glory. Just days after we got a peek at the new RSR, we have this red little bugger with the engine in the wrong place and a spoiler befitting the Chelsea Piers driving range. The Porsche Train just keeps on rollin’! Details on just how fast and how good the newest GT3 will be, after the jump.
