Default Name one thing you love about your GT3

Okay guys, this is today's official "I love my GT3, and here's why" thread. I'll start.

Q: Name one thing you love about your GT3?

A: Everything. And I am not being facetious. The thing I love about my GT3 is that I don't just love one thing. Or two. Or three. I love the entire package, from the gold emblem on the frunk to the wing on the back, and everything in between. And that joy of loving all the little things, and the big things to me IS what makes this car so special.

Right now I can go look at my wife's 550i and spot things I don't love. The look from the side is just "okay". The wheels are "okay". There is always something that I just go "ahh whatever" about in any car I have ever owned. Not this GT3. Everything is exactly as it should be, and done to perfection.

Okay, this is going to be a lot harder FOR YOU. Name just one thing you love about your GT3 (or RS). What gives you the most satisfaction? Or smile? What is that one thing?

And sorry, "everything" is taken.

Mostly that it's mine! I wanted one for a long time and passed on one of the slug of signal green cars that were allocated last year (along with the arena red and fashion gray ones). My nephew was able to set me up with what is documented as the 19th from the last 991.1 GT3 imported to the US market. I take great satisfaction in ownership of such a special machine.

The sound between 8,500 and 9,000 like someone is drilling into your head.

Two things:

a) I loved the wing. I thought it just flowed so beautifully w/o being obnoxious
b) The scared look on the faces of people who would be walking with their backs towards me as I hammer on by - priceless

I love it when I crack the window down to hear the engine in reverse.

The wing for sure! It perfectly matches the wide body... gorgeous ***!
