Forza Horizon 3: Once the ultimate Porsche in the last decade

Looks like it's the weekend again and this calls for another Forzathon challenge where we have one chance to get this iconic supercar from Porsche, the Carrera GT. Now that I got my hands on this rare breed, let's take a deep look on last decade's ultimate Porsche.



Decades after the 959 and long before the sensational 918 Spyder, there was the Carrera GT. Launched in 2003, it was the most powerful Porsche ever made. It was powered by a 5.7L V10 engine producing 612 PS of power and mated exclusively with a 6-speed manual gearbox. Porsche claims that this can reach 0-60 in 3.9 seconds and has a maximum speed of 330 km/h (205 mph). Because of its lightweight clutch that has two plates made from carbon fiber and silicon carbide, the crank is only 98.5mm lower, and it's surprisingly lighter as well.



Since we got some Hot Wheels work to deal with, let's say we send this legendary Carrera GT for a rollercoaster ride through the orange tracks ever imagined by kids of all ages? This should be fun as the Carrera GT will try to take on the most intimidating stunts ever to come up from the twisted minds of Hot Wheels.



Now this is how you enjoy a Porsche, the Hot Wheels way.
