I have a 2014 so only the regular seats and I find them more supportive and comfortable than the seats I had in my Carrera S (generally hate all leather seating). And yes the brakes are loud my car is probably louder than an MTA bus some days. It's an awesome car you will love it!
I own 2014 gt3. I fell in luv with this beast. Steel brakes squeak like hell but who cares. Basic seats . Very comfortable. On road and track will exceed ur expectation. Beast on leash on road. On track try to hold the beast. The car comes alive after 3500 rpm. Knowing that i have extnded warranty on engine i am not bothered with extended warranty.
In conclusion : gt3 is a stress reliever drug
I had a 15 GT3 with steel brakes and no squeaking
but my RS with PCCB , did squeak somewhat
Is the car at a MB dealer ???
if so , get a ppI from a Porsche dealer and see if they add CPO warranty which is around 2-3 K
I had 4 way seats on GT3 and loved them
My car is a 16 with the 18 way seats which are fine. The buckets look great but for everyday use I think I prefer the ease of ingress and egress of the sofas. I have steel brakes ,I have experienced some squeaking but not very often and they have amazing stopping power, as the others have said the car is absolutely unreal and I am sure you will enjoy it once you have it. On the warranty, I think its your piece of mind on that front, not sure you need it but it might make you feel better about the purchase. Car looks great in the picture hope u get it!
Get the seats you prefer and which fit you better, whichever they are. I’ve owned both and I’d never own a Porsche again without the buckets. They just support me much better and I love driving in them. But YMMV.
I think I will buy it.
tires need to be replaced.
car came woth Dunlop.
dealer agreed to replace tires.
should I stick woth Dunlop max race, go Michelin sport cup 2 or Michelin 4s?
dealer will pay for tires.
please advice.
thanks
Good call. Looks like a nice car. I would go with Michelin PS cup 2 (oem). Some People are getting over 15k miles without track time on these tires and they perform great
I would get the Michelin Cup 2. Also I would ensure all maintenance is up to date before taking delivery. The mileage is low but several items are due based on time. Oil and filter annually. Brake fluid flush every 2 years, spark plugs every 2 years. The drive belt is due at 4 years, also engine air filter. Sometimes on low mile cars items like these are skipped. If they have been done on time, then you will have some due in Dec when it reaches 4 years. Best of luck.
Is this through a Porsche dealer? Any reason they didn't CPO it? I ask because the dealers around me CPO everything, and only do not CPO cars that won't pass.
Instead of the $6k warranty, will the dealer CPO for less 2-3k (I forget actual cost)?
Car is at Mercedes dealership.
i know the general manager there.
still under Porsche warranty until dec 2018.
if I get it, I ll go to Porsche and discuss options.

Porsche dealers can't/ won't CPO unless they sell it used. You can go with after market warranty directly and price is usually negotiable,
Zedcat, yes.
i know that.
this is why the general manager spoke with their partner Porsche store and the option is 7 years 60k Miles Porsche warranty. No aftermarket.
so basically the original 4 years plus 3.
so warranty would expire dec 2021 and they said Price is 6k.
granted now Porsche offers 2 years of cpo and unlimited miles but I doubt I ll get to 60k Miles in it.
i can still try to negotiate.
gt3 has also 10 years warranty on engine.
Need to buy it first but I think I will.
i test drive it and was amazed.
plus they give me a good number on my 991.1 carrera.
