i'm thinking of replacing my GT3 , not sure why
Hi
the GT3 not exciting so much
i don't really understand why
maybe because come with PDK , not Manual
the limit are so high on street driving , so the car not scaring me at all.
"weak" engine power and torque compare to V8 / V10 cars.
i'm not sure what car can be more exciting to drive
maybe all the new car a too prefect/too safe , and no longer exciting?
someone feel the same?

Edited.
That was funny, but at your expense. Sorry about that.
I like to think of my GT3 as a well made mechanical device that you can feel even when driving at normal speeds. Like a fine watch or camera, you don't need to use it in extreme conditions to appreciate. But when you do...

Drifting
why don't you head to some highway on or off ramp, a nice long one and drop a gear maybe two gears and pin it
leave your right foot in it and see if you can keep it on the hard

i feel that the GT3 too perfect.
i remember few years ago on a trip in California mountain road
with a Z06 7.0 liter NA engine , 505 HP
i tough back them that this is the best engine ever , so much raw power
and the car scared me a lot , i like it when the rear tires loosing traction
didn't liked the steering and the handling , and not the build quality.

Try the new Z06. Maybe that's a better fit for your needs. It should still scare you with power and loss o traction but they've fixed the other items. Just don't track it too much.

If you want and must have a loose drifting car, try swapping front wheels with back wheels, then I am sure you would have a drift monster. Or drive it in the snow like shown in my pictures and I assure you, you would never have a dull moment. Mark

GT3 has its weaknesses like any car, but tough to find a replacement option. Maybe the AMG GT and Z06 are it at similar price points. GT3 RS is the most obvious choice, but right now pretty hefty premium to get into it.

I use mine as a daily driver. I ask myself if I should get a cheaper car to rack up commuting miles and learn to track the car (I've never been on the track).
Then, I get in the GT3, get on the highway, and smile all the way to work. There's nothing I've ever driven that's done that so easily.
Sell my 2015 GT3, yes, when my 2016 comes in.

but very very hard to get , i emailed to so many Porsche dealers.
Z06 , i don't know exactly why
but i always like Euro cars more then American or Japanese
AMG GT can be a good choice , i need to try it
i like the Ferrari 458 very much
and Cayman GT4 also , but i'm sure i will want more power
i wish Porsche will make cars with V8 engine

You need this or a Viper...but everything is raw..power, ride, interior, raw fit and finish...but raw power for certain..638 hp and 604 ft lbs of tire shredding torque..I love it ! (but I'm still after a GT3 or TTS..also)
