lots of good dialogue in here. Appreciate all of the opinions as this is my dilemma at the moment. I’m finally in a position to buy my first Porsche. The GT3 is my dream car, but maybe I should slow roll my dreams and keep them in check with reality. I plan on using the car to primarily AutoX, but also do a few track days. I run with the SoCal POC in my dadmobile, VW Golf R at the moment.

AutoX is a waste of time and tires in a GT3. Find a good 991.1 and enjoy it.

Curious why you would say that. From experience, or just conjecture?

CUP2 tires are not good for AX, but if it's a nice warm day they do ok. Nankang just released some serious 200tw tire for the GT3.

Yeah, if you don't want to shoot for TTOD (Top Time of Day) then yeah, the GT3 isn't good at AX, or if you want to spank seriously modified cars with a stock one, then the GT3 isn't good for AX. Yeah, if you don't want to learn how to drive a GT3 aggressively at speed and become a better driver...

Yeah, if you are not a good driver then the GT3 is definitely not a good AX car.
