Default Video - 997 GT3

Have you guys seen this? Nice video on the 997 GT3

I'm not searching to see if this has been posted, I thought it was an interesting video and wanted to share.
So if some of you have seen it here or elsewhere, shutup and move on.

They're always boring, especially compared to Top Gear.

Stabbing the throttle mid turn will cause the rear end to step out. Really? Duh.

Always nice to see it move though.

Hi Ken,
Have not been here for a while.
Thanks for sharing.
Wow...... US$106,860 base price & US$129,735 with full option !!!!
What a bargain........
With that price in Singapore, you can only get my 1998 996 3.4 (my car is worth S$180K)
The GT3RS is retailed at over S$600K (US$400K) in Singapore.
Ken, I am moving to your country next year !!!

Wow! Prices are coming down in Singapore. 10+ years ago $100K bought you the lowest economy box car.

Beautiful place. Love to go back for another visit someday.

Yes Marv, price has come down, but new 997 C2 base price (w/o options) is still about S$400K (US$270K).
10 years ago, 996 C2/3.4 was S$530K (US$350K).
If you check out our property price now, you won't think of coming here !
