They old GT3-R was highly praised, A newer lighter GT3-R will be even better. The new Bentley GT's engine is positioned further back too which is one of the issues with old GT3-R. Can't wait till it comes out.

Of course the GT-3 R makes 590 bhp in 15 second spurts. Well probably more like 610-615 in spurts. Continental GT is much more practical and nearly as light. I think the next GT-3 R should be real light 2050-2100 kg with.More Powah. Huzzah Huzzah!
