Congrats!!! I picked up my manual GT3 on Thursday. I've owned a lot of Porsches including a 2016 GT3. This is by far my favorite. Love the manual shifter, the sound, the motor..... epic car. Enjoy!!!!

Thank you all for the kind words and wishes.

I saw the car in person today and it looks even better than the pictures I received from them. I got more pictures of the rollbar. I might keep it black to contrast better against the red belts and the red 4 point harness. Or later if i want to change it, most likely i will paint the rollbar chalk.

Something strange happened, when i started the car and just tapped on the throttle, the RPM went slowly up to 5500RPM and hung there for a while until i pressed the clutch and then it went down. Not sure what caused if, but i pointed it out to the service so they can check it. Good thing i had it on video.

They told me i can pick up the car on Wednesday. Time moves really slow now
