Default My new gt3





I know no one here allows their gt cars in the rain, but in Florida it’s unavoidable and I like things a bit wet.

Wow.. Congrats! If I didn't have a PTS slot, this is what i would have done. Similar to my prior GT4. GT silver, right?

Nice work...good to see it driven in the rain.

I had the clears on my 991c2s (can barely make it out on my avatar) and forgot to take them off. But the gt3 just got tinted and will be getting a clear bra, gonna get clears then. Still on the fence about an exhaust.

Regarding the exhaust, I suggest give it time. Got my car in March, street driving to break it in, I immediately started researching aftermarket exhausts. Car sounded underwhelming. Then I took the car to the track. That 7,000-9,000 RPM wail needs no aftermarket exhaust. Absolutely glorious just as it is. Back on the streets, the car just calls out for attention. I realized TOO MUCH attention. I wasn't too fond of all that attention and certainly didn't want more, so I just run stock, with PSE off.

X2, I'm in the same boat. Been on the fence about side deletes but honestly it's more about me itching to do something with the car rather than needing a better sound. Sounds amazing stock and it's plenty loud enough for me since I do drive my car around town quite a bit, just my 2 cents

Congrats on the car, enjoy in good health!!

Am I the only one that prefers the orange side markers on silver?
