Fab pix! Looks lonely just one Porsche all on its own though

We'll have to sort that situation out then!

John Boggiano

Wow, Henry! When did you swap the GT3?

Great pictures for setting the scene.

Hi John,

Late November, it appeared on AutoTrader at a price that was too good to pass by.............

In all honesty it was bought as a stop gap until such time as the 997 GT3/RSs become more affordable, the trouble is, after the grunt of the GT2, anything else seems decidedly "limp wristed" in comparison (and it's still totally standard ! )

Any decision on what's going in the Boggiano garage next ? (I've not heard a bad word said about the 997GT3.........)

John Boggiano

Ah, well, yes...

997 GT3 it is - build date this May.

I know what you mean about the power: I've recently replaced the Lupo with 414bhp of Audi RS4 and this has had the effect of making anything with les than 400bhp seem on the slow side...

Atgani

Ooooh, I tried one of those (an RS4 not a Lupo !!) last September, a bit lacking in "feel" in the steering department ? but a mightily impressive package as a whole, with an absolutely awesome engine, I'm just waiting for the DSG version now..............

Mind you, if you think the RS4s 414 NA hp feels potent, you need to try the GT2s' torque, it's otherwordly !!!

What colour did you decide on for the GT3 ?

John

Like how you involve people in your Total 911 pieces: presume in June you will write the GT3 vs 964 article, anticipation, value, feedback, regrets etc ?

John Boggiano

Thanks, Shaun. And... you bet! Of course, it's a tough job...

I know that I'll have regrets, BIG regrets, but it has to be done. I must admit that watching Rob drive away from my house a few days ago and seeing his 964 burbling off up the road, the thought in my mind was 'What the hell are you doing even thinking about letting a car like that go..?'
There will be tears, for sure.

Henry - white. I just wish everyone else hadn't chosen the same colour!

Sal 965

JB,

Is it DEFINATELY going? and, have you found a buyer? If not PM me some brief details as a client of mine keeps talking about getting a Porsche and yours would surely be a good one for him.

Atgani

Whites, nice ! as regards the tears, I suspect they won't last long.................and if indeed there are any, they'll be of joy once you start enjoying the GT3 !!
