The GT3 allocation in Europe sold out last year so for the last 6 months I have been on the lookout for a low mileage car but those that are available are going for close to, if not over, MSRP.
Then on Tuesday I got a note from my SA telling me that they had received a surprise notice from the Porsche factory that they would be building a small additional run of GT3s later this year and that these would be the last batch of 991 GT3s built before the 991.2 GT3 comes along sometime in 2017. His dealership had been allocated one of these cars and would I like it. It took me all of 3 seconds to say YES!
My config is:
• White
- 90 litre tank
• Full leather interior in black, seats in leather / Alcantara, in comb. with stitching in red
• Automatically dimming interior / exterior mirrors with integrated rain sensor
• LED headlights in black incl. Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (+ PDLS) Exclusive
• Front axle lifting system
• Heated front
• Cruise control
• Cargo passenger footwell
• Preparation for VTS (Vehicle Tracking System)
• Carpets
• Electrically adjustable adaptive sports seats Plus (18-ways), incl. Memory Package
• Interior package in carbon fiber
• Center console in carbon
• Sound Package Plus
• GSM phone preparation (Bluetooth®) (HFP)
• Sport Chrono Package incl. Porsche Track Precision App and preparation for laptrigger
• Porsche Communication Management (PCM) with navigation module and universal audio interface
I won't have the build slot confirmed until late August with a delivery later this year…hopefully. I can't wait.

Congrats, good things do come to those who wait. Why didn't you get the bucket seats? Were they not available? Get the extended gas tank!

Extended fuel tank! Whether you fill it once or the small one more frequently the gas cost will be the same in the aggregate but with less stops in the gas station.

....I am just exaggerating the cost of the fill.

Buckets are available but I decided not to order them. I will only track the car a maximum 4-5 days a year. The rest of time it will be driven on the normal roads so for me, the 18-ways are better for the street and will suffice for the track. And, my wife prefers the 18ways as a passenger.
