Never have driven a GT3 or RS, but I wonder if having the PDK would make it easier to handle on the street. I know you've got the other things to worry about, like low stance and rough ride, but
I would love to compare the PDK on those cars to ours

The GT3 is very low and if there are any driveways or dips. In the streets where you are, you will constantly be cursing as the front spoiler gets ripped apart. I lost three lip spoilers on my first GT3. If you want something for the street get the C2 and if you want to give it a boast, put the power pack in it. Believe me 430hp will be adequate.
They should have offered up a C2 GTS. This year instead of making the power pack option.
In regard to the PDK, thy use the same unit on the GT3 as the C2. Shift changes are in the 50 millisec range ( similar to the Ferrari F1 in the 599).

Sorry for the duplicate post.

talk to me in a year. once the details of the 991 turbo is officially released, i bet a lot of us will be swayed in that direction instead. all depends on the how much of a price increase from the 997tt occurs.

I would like to, but I don't think a GT3 would make a good DD for year round use in Minnesota. I have been thinking a lot about this since the GT3 was released and have decided to stick with my upcoming 4S.
