Keeping those revs below 4500? What a great experience and it seems like you are making the most of it!

 

Oh below 4500 ... I thought the Porsche guy said 'above'... Oops ...

 

Looks fantastic. Good to have another member of the clear tail lights club!

 

Thanks, I really think on a blue car like this, red tails really dont work that well, the clears really blend well with the overall exterior!

I swapped out the red tails on my GT3 as well ... much improved!

 

Wonderful!

 

Sorry for your loss.

The car is beautiful

I was there 5-20-15 for tourist laps which parking lot were you in? I was near the ring taxi spots

Beautiful car, love the blue. Sorry about your pooch.

 

That is a great looking blue Larry. Congratulations. Are you at all sorry you didn't get the manual tranny? At least you kept your GT3!

its even better in real life, the photos dont do Sapphire blue justice...

honestly - yes, if this was jonly my car I would have gone with 7MT bit since my
wife cant drive a manual, and refuses to let me teach her, PDK is a must...

The PDK in "manual" mode either SPORT or SPORT+ is a great transmission, and suffers none of the "lag" that I find onerous with an auto using a torque
converter...

I just find that the 'normal' mode of short shifting up to 7th totally out of place in a sportscar

 

VERY cool car Larry.

EDIT: Ooops, that was the picture of Mike.

 

just heard from Jamie D that my car is booked on the "Cronus Leader" eta San Diego on Jul 3rd!!!

tick tock...

 

damn ... I was in the main lot, past the ring taxi/rentracecar.de spots ... wherever I could find a spot ... sorry I missed you!

 

Larry, first, awesome car and experience. Something you'll always remember. Research suggests that - after one reaches a certain level of comfort (shelter, sustenance etc) that experiences make one happier > things. But, as I say to my wife, it's even better when you can combine both!

Second, very sorry that you had to farewell your dog. Have had to do that 2x in last 3 years and it's gut wrenching: they truly are family members.

Last, great colour!

 

Ive been very lucky, this is my 2nd ED experience, I also did it back in 2007 for my 7.1 GT3 ...

totally agree ... "this is not a drill - this is life" we get one shot at it, so we might as well make the most of it!

Its tough, I volunteer for a local senior dog rescue (www.muttville.org) and I am a "6 time serial failed foster" for them, so I have had to say goodbye to 7 dogs in the last 5 years ... but it never gets any easier!

I'm a big fan of blue - the pictures dont do it justice!
