Default What are you driving waiting for the Gt3

I traded my GTS on a pretrade for the GT three due to arrive in April . The dealer told me he had many pretrade just wondering what people are driving while they’re in the waiting zone.
So on this beautiful fall day it’s the 356 ROADSTER

Took my defender 90 out today. Been almost dailying the 993 cab recently. Trying to wean myself off my true daily which is a TDI vw sportwagen. Put the claim in but I have it another year if I want. Fix is junk which is sad. I love that car. Perfect for shopping and hauling. It has never had the back seat in it. Maybe I will pick up a ‘15 and have it tuned, but I picked up a taco for the grocery/Home Depot runs so it would be redundant.

That's a tidy looking roadster. Had it for long? My wife wants me to get one - preferably in a shade of blue, Messien or Aetna. Beautiful cars!

My daily is an Audi SQ5, not quite as sexy, but a lot more practical than this:

I have had it about 10 years got it out of a barn in Virginia and it had been sitting 10 years prior to that took 2 years to bring it back. I love the A coupes . Pretty car.

Very pretty. My dad had a mint 356b roadster while I was in high school in mid-90’s, and I had a slightly less nice (ok, ratty) 356c coupe which we bought 50/50 with some mods and some rust which was my car for school when it wasn’t snowing... sometimes also when it was snowing.

Nice 356!

I just can't get myself to pull the trigger on one- I'm a driver not a collector, so this doesn't fill a driving niche for me. So right now my sports car is my GS Corvette, which is fun so far! And we also have had fun in my wife's new Macan- really surprising performance:

I'm jonesin' for my GT3, but my track car has helped to keep me from going completely crazy!


Our Euro Delivery packet just arrived, so it's getting closer!

Best Regards,
Dave

I was hoping to get my PTS in this colour.. alas, this turned out to be a PTS itself- code L999. With so many orders pending, I went with a guaranteed touring instead.

I'm about to sell my current GT3 (991.1) within the next 30 days. My new 991.2 GT3 doesn't arrive until August 2018.

In the meanwhile, I have ordered a 2018 Ferrari 488GTB which arrives in February 2018. I also ordered a 2018 Range Rover HSE Supercharged which arrives in January of 2018.

So...from November 1-mid-January, I'll be driving my trusty 1993 Mercedes-Benz 500E
