Default My New 991 GT3

Finally had a chance to take some pics of the newest addition, a 991 GT3.

Riviera Blue and Speed Yellow seem to compliment each other well. Also, you can see the difference between current GT3 and previous generation.

NICE! Is it my imagination or is the wing a) higher on the 991 and b) have more downward angle (or what we engineers call negative incidence)?

Love it! Does it mean you need to thin your herd now? I may have to get in line for your 968 turbo!

Could be or maybe one of the two was adjusted. They are adjustable so that is also a possibility.

Yes, being that Riviera Blue is a redundant color, the cab might be going on the chopping block soon. I might try to turn it back to stock to sell it. Turbo is going through a full resto right now.

Great colors.
How do the GT3 generations compare?

997.2, very raw, almost from a different era.
991.1, crazy fast but also very livable.
Thx
