He had them built custom, he also mentioned making a bigger run, send him a PM if you're interested.

Don’t do it. Scratch that itch on a long term air cooled project instead 😎

I like the performance of the modern cars better.

Do it, I am with you in spirit but not financially

A ducktail on a GT3 would be killer. Replacing a wingy with PDK, even better

I'm tired of the NA 6MT variants that are supposed to be "the last of"

Yeah- definitely going to do this. I want a manual, no PDK. I loved my touring and rather than try to find a touring at a premium, Im going to find a slightly loved winged version and go to town on it. Appreciate the support! Need to find a local Porsche shop that can help with this. Need to find the right car first....

MT or PDK I already am imagining it and wow

I was just messing around re PDK, although I personally would love a ducktail white .2 GT3 with PDK on silver wheels... now I'm tempted

I cant imagine its hard. Maybe try Suncoast. But a manual, wingey (subtract wing and add ducktail) would be great - go for it. Plus unique. YOLO!

The only thing that should be on the back end of a race inspired GT car is a fixed wing

I used to think that too. But if you want to buy a GT3 primarily for the street and occasionally take it to the track and its not all about extracting every last tenth of a second in lap times (hence manual and no wing), i am starting to like the GT3T more and more - and with a ducktail, it may be even better

even better. In the process of selling a car to make room in my garage. Found a local shop that specializes in porche modifications that can do the ducktail conversion for me. As soon as my car is sold- will get the Gt3 and make my changes.
