Congrats!

Earlier this year I got a ride in a GT3 anround the Nürburgring and it was understeering quite badly.. Seemed like a nice car but that ruined a lot of the experience. I guess it can be adjusted away though..

Awesome! Congradulations! Before delivery, make sure Porsche does an alignment check on it. Ive heard a lot of them strangely needed it upon delivery.

GT3 would be such a fun daily car! I myself really hope to be ready for my 997 C4S (assuming they build it) in a couple years! And i really really want to take it on daily. I just have this desire to play with a 4wd Porsche in the snow!

Enjoy the car and drive safe!

Congrats!

(Does anyone else see the irony that a 944 (albeit turbo) driver buys a GT3 to function as his daily driver? Usually it's the other way around........... )

Dave,

Great purchase, I think that was a wise call the GT3 is an increible car and if I had the cash I would do exactly what you've just done (and it would be seal grey, because that is just a beautiful color....)...

Anyway, let us know (in picture form) when you get her home, and if possible next time i'm in charlotte if I could swing by and see her?

Contrats dave....

I think that we should now schedule the next GTG around when you can make it. Congratulations on the car, it is great seeing someone buy a car like that to drive, not sit in the garage and collect dust.
