Ha! The same thing happened to me, I did the master the manual class in a T. Ended up purchasing it ~ 5 months later. I did not get over how great it was, also how much I liked the narrow-body looks.
Anything that is deemed lightweight, (even if just 44lbs) will get my attention, but the lower power, basic interior, usability, & the manual was just brilliant, IMO.
I told the instructor, I am going to buy one of these, no options with a backseat for my kids and drive it all the time.
It took me awhile to find one to my specs, but I eventually did and have been enjoying it possibly too much, on pace for 15k miles in the first year.
It was my 3rd session at the LA PEC, but the first where I left wanting to purchase a vehicle.
Enjoy and I will look forward to your feedback!
I notice you have a GT3, will The T be a dedicated daily? I would be interested in your feedback on the two cars vs each other.
In the past I have seen GT3 owners completely disregard the T, while others have absolutely loved the car.
Let us know your thoughts, as you get some miles on the car.....
Have a 2019 RS, 2010 RS, and 19 manual T with RAS and 4 ways so I keep the backseats. I absolutely adore the T. It has some special sauce that I cant put my hand on but its really good. I daily it as it replaced an F80M3. With some Soul cats and a pro tune the car is ridiculous. Total sleeper!
currently about 65 Ts for sale, and gt3 tourings for sale about 58. T inventory has been gradually getting lower, gt3 touring staying in about same numbers.
my bet is, that Ts are slowly disappearing, last of the narrow body analog cars, that we are not going to see in the future, because taycans and electric cars are coming. Also, 992 base only for pdk, etc. the world is changing rapidly.
The GT3 Touring is rarer than a Carrera T from #s I have seen.
Fewer GT3 T’s produced in US and globally vs the Carrera T. But the regular 991 and 991.2 GT3 were produced in significantly higher numbers. So the Carrera T and GT3 T are both rare cars. I agree - 10 years down the line a manual T with buckets and no sunroof may be hard to come by. And a GT3 T of any spec will be a rare find. Regular GT3 cars seem to now be produced in high volume due to demand.
funny that when the 997.2 came
out it seemed full of new tech. Now we call it analog.
