Default 2004 GT3 Possibly for Sale

Looking to move to a Cup. Everything you ever wanted to know about my car that's for sale is detailed here:

http://yellowgt3.com This is the previous ower's web site.

I've made these mod changes:
  • Replaced Recaro's with Euro GT3 leather seats
  • Replaced crank shaft pulley with RS pulley
  • Upgraded Momo wheel with new Sparco
  • Removed Aimes unit (Traqmate still there)

There's something special about this car guys. Set up is by the best mechanic on the planet. PM me for price if you are a serious buyer.

If I win the lottery, it would happen! Would have to be the mega power ball lotto. Would be great to be friends with a lotto winner, right? I hope you get to find out.

I would much rather earn every million though.

I don't mean to bash, but why a Cup car?

You had a cayman and you sold it for the GT3 a few months ago. Your GT3 is far from stock and you think you're ready for a cup. Don't get me wrong, it's your money but before I would jump to a car that has a countdown meter before rebuilt, I would practice and learn as much as I could on a car that is somewhat similar but long lasting like your GT3.

Well, my opinion varies from your opinion. In some ways I wish I had listened to advice that I received long ago and bought a cup car. I would have saved money in the long run probably. However, I am having loads of fun and the journey will continue. If he/she wants a cup car then who is to say they are not ready for it already. When a cup car is not pushed hard I have seen the engines last a long time.

I don't believe he asked anyones opinion so why give it? Jealousy is no reason to bash someone who really enjoys cars just like yourself. Cup car or any car is fun on the track, its all relative to what you can afford. Try being happy for someone that is blessed with having something they dreamed of driving.

Good luck with the sale!

Jealousy has nothing to do with it and like I said, she can do what ever she wants with her money. My point was to practice a whole lot with the GT3 (a car which you don't have to count the hours), rather then switch right away to a cup.

No where did I bash nor talked about being jealous. Having money is wonderful but was irrelevant in my line of thoughts.

Glad you read carefully my post and understood clearly what I meant.

I never read any jealousy in that post. More about the cost and effectiveness of using such a high-strung race car for DE's.

I wonder though. A cup car will make you go fast, but will it make you fast?
