Finally pics of my GT3...

Nice car - pity that after all that detailing there's still dirt on the floormats
Nice job. I can imagine that's a blast to drive.... now those pics beat the ones Dell posted when he bought his GT3.
I'm in a feisty mood this evening.

Hey Dayle,
The short shifter in the GT3 is MUCH shorter than the B&M I installed in my previous C2. Not sure why, really. This one often feels like a switch more than a shifter. It took a couple of days to get used to it but now I almost never get stuck in no-man's land between 1st and 3rd or 3rd and 5th.
UCrazyKid,
I really like aluminum pedals in the 996. That section of the car just looks so dark without something there. I've added them to every Porsche I've owned (four now). The bigger throttle pedal does make heel/toe easier. Actually for me, it's more like left side of foot/right side of foot. Ha! ha!

It's the same B&M part and the difference is in the gearbox itself.
Now go and get a front lip unless you want to experience something unpleasant at speeds exceeding 80mph

Yellow...yellow...yellow...YUMMY! Sweet P-car! Very nice...
I noticed that you photo-shopped your plate out, why didn't you block out your goofy neighbor squatting in that one pic? Looks like he has a white hat and blue shirt with blue jeans squatting at the back of your car...
