Default 2016 GT3

does the 2016 GT3 look the same as the 2015 GT3? Have a chance to order one and have not even seen what it looks like.

You may consider getting LWB's if you order a GT3.

LWB = Light Weight Bucket seats

But I would suggest test-sitting in them before opting on them.

I would love to get them, but my back is too wide to fit. I can't fully sit in the seat.

So, if you are a bigger guy... Be careful.

(For reference - I am a size 50-52 jacket and 6' / 260.

LWBs = Light Weight Buckets = 918 Seats = Standard 991 GT3 RS Seats

I believe it's the most wanted option on a GT3 and might help to hold the value of your car.

Here is a few photos:

Haha, that's great. Add that to the Porsche Elusive joke (though neither of these is really a joke, unfortunately).

OP, I would suggest you do a lot of reading/research and also try to get some time in a GT3 before you make your decision as to TT v. GT3 (referencing your other thread). You may take a notable hit if you trade/sell your TT, so you will want to have a more confident sense as to what you're jumping to before taking the plunge.
