Default Thoughts on the Nu GT3
Interesting I find the steering to be a bit heaver than my previous 997.
Like the manual mode of the trans!
AHA radio needs to be plugged in to the iPhone to work fully.
Took a mountain drive today to start the brake in process.
USAA said my insurance rate would drop $200/yr over the 997
A couple of pics for you:

Surprised the Insurance didn't go up given all the aluminum used in this iteration. Did you drop the estimated mileage or something?

Yup, insurance (USAA) came down a couple hundred dollars over my previous 991S. Same level of cover but a more expensive car.

Mjones, your car looks spectacular.

Looks fantastic!

I was shocked how inexpensive my USAA was going to be (with two other cars)...gotta love it!
