It's my dayly driver now. I was thinking selling RS once. But now all the rest goes instead. It's also too big, but with my fat giraffe build that's perfect. The most playful car I have ever driven, so easy to drift rotate and play and there is a very very good catching net for when you run out of talent or hit a 997 coolant patch. No, I loved the 964RS as much as a 997 GT3 drives the same just slower. Is that testament to how good RSA is or how little improved the 4.0 is?? Loving Mr purple enough to now sit back wondering if I still want a GT4, if so its for budget only. The 964RSA is going to get sold. I'll just never grab it over Mr purple... I can't wait to try this technology with a couple turbos strapped on....

In my line of work I surround myself with people that challenge me instead of saying 'yes' all the time. It's helped my division grow and outperform the rest of the business segments. I'm getting promoted and taking my team with me - because I love to hear opposing arguments and they deserve this promotion as much as I do. Sometimes they're correct and I'm wrong and sometimes I'm right and they're wrong. I knew in a few hours of driving the 991 GT3 in the suburbs surrounding the Heckenheimring and on the actual Hockenheimring that the 991 GT3 wasn't for me. The car was sterile and falsely inspirational. A 9000 RPM engine? So what? Lighting quick gear changes? So what? What does that do? A computer on wheels - a car, in most people's hands, that is faster in auto mode on the track than manual mode. That's not a GT3 as we know it. That's a gimmick. Not all technology is good, not all technology is beneficial. Formel 1 cars are the fastest most brutal cars on the track. 99.1% of the people here would not be able to turn even a quarter lap without spinning out of control. The nature of race cars - need very quick reflexes and an intuitive automotive feel to drive them. The 997 and 996 cars gave us a little bit of this challenge (they're not race cars either) but the 991 force fed us false confidence and piśśing contests. The really good drivers will be bored with the 991, but the average drivers will love it since it elevates them artificially to something they want to be. .

The thought has occurred to me to sell the 993, use the money to funds my track cocaine habit, buy a container of MPSC2 tyres and the Dunson exhaust and just keep using this car at every opportunity for quite a few years more :-)
