Default Finally joined the club! GR 991.2 GT3

Hey everyone!

After much lurking, I have finally acquired my first GT car. This car will serve as my daily driver & track car for the foreseeable future, as my 991.2 C2 did for the last 19 months. I am making this thread mostly in hopes of finding the original owner of my car, as it has numerous track modifications performed and I would love to learn more about its history (and maybe even where some of its missing parts are!!!).

Relevant Info:

2018 991.2 GT3
PDK
Guards Red + Black wheels with GR stripe
Steel brakes
FAL
SC
Modifications (that I could discern at least): Brembo Type 3 front rotors, GT Technik cage, Schroth harnesses & an incredibly loud exhaust which I have been UNABLE to identify (a friend of mine posted another thread on this earlier).
~7900 miles at the time of purchase on 11/02 - have already put about 300 miles on the car!

Took a few basic (and terrible) pics of the car, but already having a blast in it and looking forward to many more miles. The car is currently at the dealer getting a fresh alignment and winter tires fitted.

Any insight into the history on this car would be greatly appreciated!
VIN: WP0AC2A93JS174719

Congrats! Are you going to switch out the exhaust for daily driving?

I am! The car did not come with any of its original parts, including the exhaust and rear carpeting, but the very generous @speedyj was able to lend me his stock center muffler. Will combine this with some FVD side muffler delete pipes for daily driving purposes, as the current exhaust setup is PAINFULLY loud.

Congrats again! I was lucky enough to see/hear this car the other day. It is awesome to say the least. Looking forward to watching Jahmed drive/track this car like it was designed to be.

Love the red stripe on the seat and the red belts along with the red stitching. It coordinates very well. Red stripe on the wheels looks good also. I'm not a fan of the lizard green stripe on the .2 RS wheels.

Welcome. Enjoy in good health. You're going to love it on the track. The .2 GT3 is extremely capable.
