Default Thoughts on this 24 mile GT3? asking $5k under MSRP

I’m not sure about the color and the wheels and the interior pieces. A good price for essentially a new car.

Sapphire Blue is very unpopular on GT3’s.

Thoughts?

I think its a nice combo! Seems like a decent buy on a Winged 6MT if that's what you're after.

Being its CPOd is even better.

If you want LWB and ceramics it's a nice car.

Beautiful spec! Buckets, ceramics and black LEDs. Hits all the marks and I personally think SBM is a really nice color. If it were a Touring, I'd buy it myself!

No offense to the Blue owners but that's why it's $5K under......

Has all the right options. Sapphire Blue is gorgeous in person as well. Just not a fan of the painted interior trim.

If you like the color (I don't) and the spec iit seems to be a pretty decent deal for a CPO new car.

Oh and the other thing that hurts the price is no FAL.

What's wrong with Sapphire?? I think it's a great color. Not like it's that baby puke green (the name escapes me now) that some people inexplicably think is really cool.

I doubt the color is the reason. I have a sapphire blue GT3, and before that a sapphire blue gt4. Nothing but compliments on the color. Even more so than the car itself.

I wouldn't say the color is unpopular. It was selected more in the 991.1 GT3, then discontinued a few months into the 991.2 GT3 production. On the GT4, it was one of the most popular colors. It pops.

It's not tough to knitpick this one.

Blue trim, yellow belts, red 12 o'clock stripe, white gauges, red chrono on a blue car.

Did somebody believe this was a good idea?

Sapphire Blue looks great in person, PCCB yellow looks great on that blue.

No FAL, no extended tank, and a strange interior mix (painted trim, white dials, yellow seatbelts, and red chrono). But other than that, great spec! :-)

Couple of these this color at Smokies this year. I absolutely loved the color in person.
