Default Traded my 2018 GT3 PDK for a 2018 GT3 Touring

After owning my 2018 GT3 with PDK for about 6 months, I decided I wanted a manual and stumbled onto this 'Touring' model which was the lowest price in the country.

Last Friday I drove from Charlotte to Tampa and made the trade...then drove the new car to Savannah on the same day...driving 1,000 miles in two different GT3s in one day was a blast (and no tickets!).

Adding some sound today with Soul Performance side deletes. Sharing a few pics...

.....this is what a wise man say......Congrats

If I may ask what was the lowest price in the country and how many miles? Ad link?

The only mod to my 991.2 touring are the Soul side muffler pipes and it enhances the driving pleasure just the right amount.

Today, my son and I are setting off on a 1500 round trip excursion to Canada. CF buckets, additional miles and rock chips be damned!

I paid $225K with 11K miles...car is perfect with PPF also.

Enjoy the road trip!

My early assessment of the 'Touring' is it is a softer set-up (which could be due to my other car having a cage). The car feels much smaller and a little more lively (which could be due to less downforce).

Just got the car back from installing side deletes from Soul Performance...sounds much better and the car drives better...felt a little sluggish stock but the shifts and how power comes on is much snappier. May add the center delete next but wanted to do this in phases.

Good move and very nice - the 991 has very clean lines.
