I accepted that fact a while ago Scott . Thanks for the kind words.
With the new acquisition, you can say I have moved on.

No need for the turbo either. I'll give her a good home! Seriously though, the GT3 is deceivingly fast.... no turbo TQ to let you know your moving! Congrats!

Thanks hot, yes it is deceptively fast. Very different than a turbo but probably just as fast. The turbo hits you like a 2x4 when it kicks in, which is an experience in itself.
Turbo is going nowhere anytime soon. Too much blood and sweat into that car. Absolutely love it and would not trade it for any other car. Its a very different experience.

Congrats and enjoy the GT3! You can't go wrong with a GT3 in the stable!

Thanks Dino, it is a very special car, especially now that the new one is PDK only. If you would have asked me 2 months ago, I had no plans to do such a crazy thing. The more I started looking at them, the more I realized that these cars could be the last of their kind. They also seem to be appreciating, which is strange for such a new car. Never thought in my wildest dreams I could own such a car.

They truly are (although I have a hard time accepting that we may not see another manual GT3). There were a couple times I looked at adding a turbo or gt3. Tough finding a GT3 for sale, especially if you want specific colors/options.
Enjoy that beast, you found a gem!
