Default Looking at a 991 GT3

Hi All, I am considering changing my GTS to GT3 (again)

I drove a clubsport and as I will not be doing lots of track days decided I did not want the cage (We often go out and have our dog a whippet in the back), the cage looked challenging !
I want a white (More to choose from secondhand) and want a low miles car with a reasonable spec. I did want leather and carbon, but having got used to my non leather GTS I don't mind, my old RS was every bit as utilitarian. A few questions from those with more experience than me :

My GTS is lower than a GT3 at the front (teacart springs) this GT3 doesn't have front lift, is this a real resale issue ?
The car is through a trader but it will come with a transferable Porsche warranty until Jan 2020
Here's the spec :Carrera White, Jan 14 build

" Black leather and Alcantara sports seats (Not Buckets), Sports Chrono Package, PCM, Heated Front Seats, Cruise Control, DAB, Telephone Module, Bi Xenon's, Porsche Dynamic lights, Universal Audio Interface, Sound Package Plus, Home Link Garage Door Opener, Matt aluminium trim,Painted Head Lamp Covers,Top windscreen tint,Auto Dimming Interior and Exterior mirror pack "

It's not safe to keep your dog unrestrained in the car. Lack of FAL is a resale issue. I'm not sure you want SC so maybe look for another example.

I would not consider a GT3 without FAL. But that is because i can’t get out of my driveway.

I would not be putting the dog in the back without restraint. The GTS is a great car!

Nice spec. If you have had no problems with your lowered GTS, then no FAL on the GT3 should not be an issue. Good luck!

I would think that this is even worse on the .1, as the shape seems to protrude a bit more... at least to my eye, w/o seeing them side by side...
