So a lot of you guys wrote into us in the comments about this idea, thank you Mukesh,
Anirudh S, Pritish S, Himalayan Wanderer and everyone who thought and believed that it's
a great idea because very... sorry if you can cut for a moment please, thank you.
Oh, ladies and gentlemen, it is time once again for GT madness to unfold on your screens
and if you haven't guessed it already, we were indeed in Dubai.
Your ride is waiting for you in the parking lot, it will talk to you.
Trusting the unknown messages being sent to Rohan's new phone, we went looking for our
ride, but little did I know that we would be beginning our journey with something like this.
(Speaking German)
This is our car! Holy Porsche. And the journey began with a white GT 2 Pro's 150 degree ultra
wide camera capturing Dubai's eclectic mix of cars.
Dubai is also known as a place where gold, silver and diamonds are flashed at you from
every direction.
But what we wore for the day was a Porsche 911 GT3.
There is no way we are going to be resting in a hotel when we have been given the keys
to the most spec'd out 911 GT3 ever.
The holy Porsche... the holy Porsche, did you notice the sticker on the Porsche by the way?
It says Sonderwunsch.
Sonderwunsch in German means special wish.
Oh really?
So whoever our dear benefactor is who's gotten us here, he knows your special wish.
Some really lovely touches, okay.
So like the instrument cluster, the centre is proper analogue and it's got that nice
technical feel about it and it's not just that it's got this gradations like a normal
analogue clock, which really looks cool and also the needle itself is in this beautiful
yellow shade, which is giving it that bit of specialness and the other thing here is
this gearlever, which looks like it's from a manual box but this is the seven-speed PDK,
the dual-clutch but the GT3 is available with a six-speed manual as well which we don't
have, but I'm not complaining this is absolutely fine.
The seven-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung is simply said the fastest gearbox in the world.
Like the eighth-gen Snapdragon is one of the fastest processors from the phone world.
The other fastest thing in the world was the speed of my thought.
Oh, I know what to do.
If you happen to be in this part of the world or in this corner of Dubai, then there's one
holy place you shouldn't miss.
Alain Class Motors, what you're gonna see inside Kartik, is going to be mind blowing.
It's one of the largest supercar and hypercar showrooms in Dubai, but that's really not
it's catch, it's the kind of rare cars that you have are on sale if you have that red
chequebook in your pocket.
And so I think about it in this 20,000 square feet, we have what, $50 million worth of cars.
Alain Class Motors here, it is the official dealership for Koenigsegg, in the whole of
UAE so if you want Koenigsegg you know, you think we could ask them?
Just check this out... but then we have, a Bugatti Veyron linear VEer Mansory.
I've driven a Veyron and I still remember the first time I saw it drive up I was so taken aback
by how small it was.
You don't, you think it's much bigger in photographs?
While a Chiron is ultra exclusive, how often do you get to see the Holy Trinity lined up like this?
By the way, my favourite here is the Ferrari F40 Enzo's final masterpiece, the F40 is possibly
the most iconic supercar ever made and without a doubt the most iconic Ferrari ever made,
the absolute definition of a poster car from the 80s, the F40 was proper excess, and it
was the first ever car to officially have a top speed in excess of 200 miles per hour.
And there's the F50, which brought Formula One to the road.
This is my poster car, this is the car that I have always dreamt of.
It used to carbon fibre tub and a Formula One derived V-12
engine mounted as a stress member, it was hardcore.
Then there was the Enzo, it fittingly combined the best of Ferrari,
road and track, hardware and electronics.
Naturally aspirated and non-electrically assisted, it was divine, so much so that the Pope had one.
Alright, so Ferrari, Ferrari, Ferrari Ferrari and then what we have here is LaFerrari.
In a crowd like this, the near 1000PS LaFerrari can get overshadowed.
This is not for fuel right?
No, that's its V-12 hybrid.
How tightly wrapped is this?
It looks like there's a cabin and they put wheels and they had space for an engine and
that was it.
We standing here there where limited edition McLarens are standing.
This one is one of 500, it's the McLaren Senna.
That one is the P1 that Kartik is looking at and crying, 375 of them in the world.
McLaren Elva, very limited, I think 149 cars in the world I believe?
And by the way, there's no windscreen to the Elva so that means all the wind's going to
be in your hair, no, this particular part out here, this is going to just you know jut
out at high speeds and that's going to be the windscreen so that the driver well, can
continue stepping on the gas.
This is the open top 765LT. Ayan, how many of these in the world?
Less than 500.
So this is your most favourite McLaren?
Nope.
This, this is the one.
Oh, McLaren Speedtail, one of 106, a pure fusion of science and art in automotive form.
The Speedtail is McLaren's first ever hyper GT.
Why don't we have McLarens on the GT journeys out here, we are in Dubai.
Should we make some call?
We should, no?
In any way, we can get a McLaren?
And as for us, the Speedtail is special.
It has that McLaren F1, that iconic car's central seating position for the driver you
can see three inside.
It's special not because of its speed, power or price, but because it is a machine
that can inspire dreams.
After Alain Class Motors I thought of returning the favour and took the now charged up Rohan
for a kick of caffeine.
This place is bizarre, it's a cafe called Mille Miglia and it's packed with automobiles
that could be part of any museum and would be behind closed doors and you'd be fine with it,
but the owner of these cars has put them out here so that you could come here watch
an Formula One race, grab a coffee and be inspired.
And I have the GT2 Pro in my hand and I'm going to start off by clicking a great pic
of the GT2 RS.
Now this is a place where you will find a lot of unique Ferraris.
Alright, so we're moving over here to the 918 Spyder this one of course is fuel driven
and hybrid car here, the Carrera GT V-10 power forever.
And then you have to be very quiet actually out here and you have to really look out for
not doing any misdemeanours because of this serious man here.
Are there speed limits in Dubai?
Yeah, I got a quick download on that, so whatever you see written, you can go 20 kilometres
above that, so if it's a 100, you can do a 120.
If you go 121, boom.
One second, one second, one second, we need a destination where we can do all this.
I'm not doing it here, I am not...
Yes please please can we?
I was looking at a satellite imagery on my GT2 Pro's 2K super reality display and what
it displayed was an imagery that was unreal, a grid of roads criss crossing each other
endlessly.
Exit 55, it is unbelievable, strips of pristine tarmac rise out of the desert sand and this
would be the playground for the GT3.
This is what I wanted to feel that purity of that engine, the sound of a naturally aspirated
4.0-litre engine.
It's got a double wishbone suspension from the Porsche RSR including the control arm.
For the very first time, I'm crying.
At times it feels like Porsche doesn't make cars, theyare doing the work of god, 8000,
eight and a half...
We kept going at the most spec'd out paint to sample gulf blue Porsche 911 GT3 on the
straights of exit 55 again and again and again.
Oh my, look behind. Is that a cloud of dust?
Oh my,
what a place, what a place.
By the way, folks, if you come to Dubai, and we hope to lord but you don't come the way
we have come where we, where you are unprepared, unprepared and extremely clueless as to where
you're going, but if you do come to Dubai, come to this place.
As the sun went down, we stopped, not wanting this dream to end though, for it had been
difficult to believe that this was really ours for the day.
Every Porsche that I've driven till date, they aren't with me as memories, you know
as pictures, they stay with me as sensations and that's what when you put your foot down
hard on something like this, it's like your entire body's soaking up the experience.
Even as we drove to the hotel, it all seemed unreal.
Being in Dubai is one thing, but driving in a 911 GT3 against this stunning backdrop,
was something else indeed.
It's a dream man.
It glitters, it glistens, it dazzles...glorious, now I've seen it all.
Let's go to the hotel.
Dude...it's not gonna disappear it's not gonna go anywhere.
I'm genuinely worried, it appeared, we weren't expecting it, my fear is that tomorrow morning
we wake up and it's not there.
I'm headed to the room.
What a day, man.
Well, this is happening, this is tomorrow, tomorrow is now and we are in a McLaren 720S.
This is madness.
