Someone pointed out it looks like a 911 swallowing a Taycan and now I can't unsee it.

Looks were a big reason I went 1.2 Touring. The 1.2 is arguably the best looking 911 ever. The 992 Touring is polarizing. The stance and proportions are nice and I do like the rear end with that aggressive diffuser. But that front end. Total butterface.

So you guys prefer the black unpainted plastic look versus the painted nose?

Personally, if I was getting a 992GT3T, I’d get it in black (or some other very dark color) to camouflage the bumper and nostrils.

I do, to my eye. And better to camouflage rock chips as well. Depending on the color, window trim etc painted looks a bit plain

Or just get the color you want and have that small area painted/wrapped black?

Guys,

Here's a nice lead on a car that is not being marketed through the normal channels....

2018 Manual GT3, PTS Signal green, ceramics, buckets, full leather Bose, clearbra'd, Dundon exhaust plus original parts included, only 4K miles. A very reasonable asking price IMHO of $195K. Here's the link. Ask for my friend Mary and she can give you all details on the car. I'd buy it myself if I wasn't already in the automotive penalty box!!

I think the link broke, it's still up. Nice spec, decent price, too bad no FAL, but should sell still I'd say.

No FAL severely limits the buyer base. The Guard red car at Porsche Greensboro is still for sale, and it's gone through many price drops.

As amazing as these cars are, they are now 5 years old. Out of warranty. I drove 3 "low mileage" GT3s in this past year and 2 of them rode like crap. Every single panel joint inside the car would buz/rattle when you drive over bad patches of road. The clutch felt really weird, etc. So looking at these pictures and miles dont tell the full story. Lots of people from instagram world who would have no business owning and driving a GT3 bought these cars at the time because of the hype. 997 generation GT3s on the other hand are solid even after going through 6 owners and 20,000 miles. They dont just "loosen" up. If I were buying a GT3, I'd have hell of a tough time paying $200-$210k for a car that I have no idea how it was maintained, now has no warranty, with a recession on the horizon and loans at 7%.

Extended warranty on these cars will not cover things like bucket seat bolsters ripping from the seams or the head unit rattling itself out or the door panels needing a replacement. You can't just buy factory bumper to bumper warranty and fix the car up.
