Default My dream car arrived today - 991.1 GT3!

Been on this forum for a while - great forum! Finally got my 350R sold and got my dream car - a 2015 GT3 - arrived today! Has LWB's, some carbon bits, FAL, etc. Primarily a track car - alignment and some PPF up next . Soon will be center muffler delete . Drove it around today with a big smile. Always wanted one!

Welcome, but you are going to miss those exhaust crackles from the GT350R...


That voodoo engine sounds nothing like a F-car flat-plane crank, was kinda slow to rev off idle but when above 5500 rpm, Lord oh Lord... screamer that sounded delicious with real non-fake crackles and pops, loved it... should have kept that car...

I hear ya. It is a great car but for track duty a bit heavy. I think with a center delete like GMG the sound will be glorious . Nothing like a GT3 on the track IMO.

Prefer the sound of GT3 over the Ford everyday...also prefer the better suspension, brakes, engineering etc!

Maybe if I was 22 and not 52 i would want the mustang.

My son and I often discuss how flat the GT3 is. The suspension in the RS is pretty close to perfect. The only mod needed is exhaust and I have been thrilled with GMG.
