Congrats and enjoy it! CR is a great color for the GT3.2
And kudos for going with the PDK... the manual is fantastic but the PDK is also just as fun. Can't go wrong with either transmission options IMHO.
Btw wait till you experience those high-rpm lightning quick upshifts/downshifts and the wonderful sounds of it in PDK Sport mode. Priceless.

Yes my friend was nice enough to let me have car delivered to Motorwerks. I didn’t want to attempt to get the car up my driveway with the snow and ice. Also having some detailing done as there are some swirls in paint from factory.
It’ll be difficult to keep the RPMs down for the first 1000-2000 miles for sure. I didn’t have a big preference on manual vs Pdk. I did, however, want a certain color and spec otherwise. Traded in my 2015 GT3 so I’m familiar with the gearbox and really liked the Pdk. My buddy is getting same spec car in a few weeks with manual trans so it’ll be fun to drive both and compare.
anyone coming from a 991.1 Gt3 who can comment on the difference in power ? Does the extra 25 hp and 15lb torque really feel that noticeable over the 991.1 Gt3? Unfortunately for me I won’t know for at least 3-4 months and then I still have to break in the car properly before getting on it . Going to do everything right with this car as it maybe a keeper.

You know, I feel like people only talk about PDK for the track- as if they have never pulled up next to a car they needed to stay in front of...
Congrats on your delivery- I can't imagine how painful it is to wait for it to be built and shipped, and then have to wait for the seasons! ship it out to CA and take a week to drive around- just stay away from the mudslides!
