I may wind up keeping it if I can't get what I'm asking for it; its a great package as it stands, and still exceeds my expectations.

Hmm. Good luck with the sale.
996 GT3 is my next replacement as well. It has to be guards red for me.

HOWEVER, at a POC event, there was a guy (Porsche Service Advisor) with a 996 C4S and PCCBs that was keeping up with a GT3. It all boils down to the driver.

Nevertheless, the GT3 has a N/A GT1 motor, which is very appealing.

Excellent point. The C4S is not holding me back at all.

Check the PCNA Search - there is a red one there.

I wish this thing was for sale in a few months, that is when my search will begin. Very nice looking car, it must be killing you to let it go.

Since you probably already researched this, how much is a GT3 engine installed? I.e. - since you already have the suspension mods and most likely have your car handing "the way you want it", why not just put a bigger motor in it?

That logic doesn't seem sound. Why would anyone want to do that?

1) it would devaluate the c4s even more
2) it would NOT appreciate in [general public] market value
3) it is still heavier than a gt3
4) it is still AWD (if that matters)

Because not everyone has the same requirements as you and that the items you mentioned may not be important to him.

I would not be interested in pursuing such a project, but anyone else who is can buy my C4S and have at it.

Beautiful car...you might regret selling it though. I know my ideal garage would have a C4S and a GT3!...off to buy a lottery ticket now.

Nobody in their right mind, at least.
