    After 9 months with my GTM, I've accumulated several onboard videos in this incredible Ferrari. I'd love to see other folks' videos as well - either onboard, or fly-by?

    From my own collection:

    Laguna Seca :



    Watkins Glen :



    Circuit of the Americas :



    Road America :

    Thanks for sharing those videos Ben! Glad to see you putting it to good use. How do you like it compared to the 599xx? I assume it’s just a completely different experience and technology. Seems like a lot of the GTM owners have XX cars.

    Unfortunately the only one I have seen was stationary but it was awesome looking at one up close and seeing all the aero bits!

    The two cars are sooo different to drive. The 599XX is all drama - screaming V12, rear end constantly scrabbling for grip, you're aware of the weight higher up and further forward. The 488 GT3/GTM are pure racecar - light, nimble, raw, serious downforce, and in the case of the GTM, also big power.

    I love them both.

    Makes sense - 2 very different cars but both a blast to drive on the track. Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to seeing more

    I was just watching your video from 488 GTM video from Laguna yesterday, can not believe how fast the speed builds on it!
    Taking my 991 Cup to Laguna next Tuesday - can't wait :)

    2:03 at COTA is no joke. How does the GTM compare to a Challenge EVO? Obviously, there's a lot more power there to put down that lap time.

    Compared to the 488CH-E, the GTM is 200lbs lighter, 50HP stronger, and has more tire and more aero. It's a monster.
