K I have had 9 GT3's including 2 cup cars two GT2's 4 turbos 930, 993, 965 ,997 just sold the X50 ruf 996. For the GTS.. Wow the GTS is pretty amazing !! Much better than the R had one of those .. The sound and feel of this car may be the best all around sports cars I've ever had!!!

F360 F430 included!

Oh yeah just sent my 991 GT3 back to Porsche, it may not match that but 50k less is a good option!!!

Would love to get your take on the car in detail. I have a CGTS on order for October delivery. Your experience with a variety of different 911s vs. the GTS is of great interest to me...

Thanks!

Congrats. I can't say I'm surprised with your reaction. While it's not the flashiest car and the fastest car out there, there are very few cars out there that give you the 'connection' the GTS does. It's a true sports car.

Wow, quite an endorsement! On paper, it didn't look like the GTS should be that much different from an S.
Cayman or Boxster? And, yes, pics and some more comparisons, pls.

YES! I like it. More GT3 owners and owners of big 911s are buying Caymans. Welcome to the Dark Side.

When Porsche gave the mid engine more than 300 Hp it became IMHO one of the best sports cars in production. Good looks, good build quality, nice interior, not too flashy, fast and lithe handling. Welcome to the dark side is right....
