This prompted me to put together this video, which I'm sure will get a lot of hate, saying that maybe the 911T (as well as some other 911 variations) is a better and more accessible option. Probably preaching to the choir here but feel free to tell me I'm wrong!
The T was discussed in the last two pages of the 911ST post of the 992 GT3 forum. Same conclusion. I agree with the point. A stripper T is philosophically similar to the ST and does merit mention, especially because it's a guiltless pleasure.

That's cheating.

@Macboy that looks like a lot of fun. I can see why you struggled. These cars are hard to get them sideways. Grip for days.
Oh and my white dials are

I cannot foresee the standard interior being a limiting factor. I totally agree the other items though.

So excited about a little project I've had my local body shop work on... Mike's Autobody in MA did this for me, and even got my key taken care of with a perfect color match of the Rubystar and Racing Yellow... Matched the 911 font and the "Touring" script perfectly.

This looks so awesome! Thanks for sharing!

I haven't even looked for not wanting to send my car off the road, but is there a way to turn the traction control off?
