Just got my 2014 GT3
Just picked her up last week white on black with yellow belts, full leather interior and ceramics. My build came out to a whopping $165,000 which I think it is very much on high side of GT3.
My car was one of the few 14 models that has engine replaced at factory but I noticed on my way home that was strange grinding noise coming from the engine bay in back and was wondering if this is normal for GT3??
I just came from a 14 Turbo S and I must say after driving the GT3 I vowed never to buy another Turbo again over a GT3 unless they go forced induction on GT3. I also took a 28k hit when selling my Turbo S and i had out less than 1k miles on it. Talk about depreciation and no wonder as the dealers are selling brand new Turbo S for $15k off MSRP.
I also had a 12 Lamborghini Aventador and I have to admit the GT3 is by far the best car I ever have ever driven or owned and it also is an added bonus the car does not depreciate like a rock like any other modern day vehicle except a 458 etc.
Have not had a chance to push the car as it now sits in my garage with 50 miles and I going to get clear bra on car this week.
Few items I would like to upgrade:
-OE Style Wingblade in exposed carbon fiber
-918 style steering wheel also seen on Macan (I think it maybe possible to retro fit this on GT3)
-Alcantara Console Lid with Porsche Crest
Please excuse terrible iPhone pics.

Congrats. The car looks great in all colors, but White with Std. Color Wheels and PCCB's is my favorite. How about some inside pics to help me pass the time while I wait for mine to be built?
