Its a promo about the wheels.

BOTH CARS ARE RWD. Both can be "drifted" but the ISF probably is a bit easier to do

Exactly....lol.

Nice looking wheels btw.

Pretty much this.

Did everyone miss this?

Except that Porsche's GT2/3 cars are only available in rwd, not awd.

eXACTLY@!

Cool vid but no way a IS-F can hold a candle to the GT3 on a race track....stop dreaming!

The GT3 was built for only one purpose - to be FAST on the track. The IS-F is a family sport sedan at best. Way too heavy to be a race car.

I had a 08 GT3 and it's a pure animal at WOT - lightweight, unforgiving on bumps and would take out most "sports" cars on the track including many Ferrari's/Lambo's....
