Some days are better than others.....

I won't bore you with a montage of photos of a White GT3 since it's not exactly a rare bird. That said, I have to say, looking at photos of GT3's online for 5 years is one thing and watching your own GT3 roll off a transporter is another thing completely. It's been a long search and I want to thank all of you that gave advice and answered questions for me. You know who you are...

2015 car purchased from a private party through King's Porsche in Cinnci.

1800 miles
Extended range fuel tank
Red belts
No lift
No wart (Mooty approved)
Full leather
Sound package
Smokers package
Sharky bypass

This was the spec I was shooting for and really only missed out on LWB's (Not the only one and am on the Sun Coast list to get them). The number of cars to choose from on the market was shrinking quickly. I want to thank Rennlister JKWino for putting me in touch with the owner.

PS. I had never seen one in person before receiving it since the Mpls Porsche dealers don't seem to think they sell...

Cheers, Gents!

Fantastic story - enjoy in good health. It's amazing to look at, but wait until you take it to 9K - if you're not smiling you're dead.
The White might not be a rare bird, but a GT3 is. It's also been scientifically proven that white is the fast color because it absorbs the least light. It's certainly cooler by at least 40F.

Congratulations! Welcome to the GT3 Club!

Enjoyed the background story, must be one hell of a day for you, huge congrats! And no need for a break in, which is nice. Take her up to 9K and hold on!

Congrats on your new toy. It's been 10 hrs. since you posted first, so I'm sure you're still smiling from hearing that engine hit 9K.
