My .2 GT3 will be nearly identical to my .1 GT3 which I loved dearly so no reason to change anything.
I'm interested in PTS, but I have yet to find a PTS color that I like more than Guards Red. The only new addition to my .2 GT3 will be alcantara window visors.

My Build-
Guards Red with Black Xenon headlights
PDK and iron brakes
Full leather interior, red stitching, seatbacks and extended dash in leather
PCM with Carplay, Sports chrono clock, and anthracite interior trim package
Porsche crest on center storage compartment lid and alcantara sun visors
Front lift kit

It would be an embarrassment if it weren't, no? Is Porsche really going to let BMW, a fellow German manufacturer, one-up them in this department? I sure hope not.

Now how much over MSRP do you guys think these dealerships will charge? A topic I haven't seen discussed much for the 991.2 GT3

Just as an aside, I have never quite understood the enthusiasm for a roll bar in the GT3.

In Europe, I would guess that 90% of GT3s are ordered with the Clubsport package so when I got mine without the roll bar and sofas I was warned about limited resale appeal, etc.

And yet, in all my trips to the track, I have never once seen a car roll. I have seen plenty of severe front, side and rear impacts but never a roll. Design rules require the car manufactures incorporate a roof structure that will survive a roll so I think I am going to be safe enough.

Besides, if you do manage to roll the thing it's going to be a total write-off so financially there is no gain. It also takes away a lot of the convenience of the car. I have even had my two dogs back there.

A friend of mine recently admitted that he got his because it looks good....and therein lies the real reason I think.

not mainly for roll, but to mount your 5 or 6 pts harness

my only wishes for 991.2 GT3 is 500hp and 5 lugs, but the chance of latter is low

Great thread! I'm pondering if I'll go PDK w/ the .2 GT3 and keep the GT4 as my manual car, but if I trade it I'm def going 6MT for the GT3.

Actually the more I think about it, the more I like the idea of just keeping the GT4 for the track and doing a poseur/street build on the .2 GT3 and DD it.

Is the GT3 lower than the GT4 in stock form?

For those who are interested in speccing a manual for the 991.2 gt3... if porsche introduced a more advanced version of the pdk-s transmission.. a "pdk-r" of sorts.. maybe faster or more racey.. would that sway your decision?.. or is the allure of one the last manual NA cars too much to pass up.
