FYI, if the those seats are authentic GT3 Recaro in perlon and are in good shape they are $$$$$. I’d add that front and center to your ad as those will have a good impact on pricing. Aside from blue, I think that option is probably the best dollar return on these cars now.

Thanks guys👍

Yes the Perlons are in great shape and are big $’s. They are indeed the Factory Recaro’s with the Porsche emblem stitched in. Super comfortable!

Indiana J, I responded to your PM. I’ve been out of town and just checked the site today. Lots of interest 👍

I've had the unusual pleasure of driving a 996 GT3, 996 GT2, 991 GT3, 991 GT3RS, and a 991 GT2 RS all in close proximity. Investment value disregarded - between the 2 996's I preferred the GT3. Among the 991's - the GT3RS. I'm sure the slowest of these on a long track would be the 996 GT3. I'm also sure the one that makes me feel most like I did all the driving was the 996 GT3. In fairness the 996 GT2 wasn't handling in a way that made pushing it comfortable - so it was probably the biggest hand full. The GT2RS was the thrill ride but it's not even breathing hard at 100 MPH. That speed felt like 50 MPH. 100 mph in a 996 feels fast. In a 991 it feels calm. Certainly the newer cars are better but I never got them going fast enough to feel like I needed to control the car. The cars are effortless. It's like the difference between going 70 mph in a roller coaster and 220 mph in first class on a jet taking off. You know you're going fast on a jet but it doesn't feel like it. On a roller coaster you know you've actually driven your car faster to the amusement park but 70 mph in a roller coaster is terrifying.

^ that’s a great analogy. That’s it, I’m buying some jack stands!

Great write up jpoint👍 So no coparo’s to the 997 GT platform. Curious how that stacked up to your 6-3 experience. I am just now going into the 997 Platform w a well developed RS, so I’ll soon have some experience to share with the group here. Stay tuned👍

Initially I think the big diff is going to be the chassis. And rear track...

If you have time for a good read - here is Porsche explaining the jump from 996 GT3 to 997 GT3

Still lurking in the shadows. Christ, I mean Chris, has been great thus far communicating back and forth with me.

There was a 997 GT3RS in the mix but I never drove it. All of these cars were driven on country roads. Only the 996 GT3 was track driven. I've driven a 991 S PDK on the track and I'd definitely be faster in the 991 PDK than the 996 GT3. That said - I still did more DRIVING in the GT3.

We received jack stands yesterday and sold out today!. Corvid19 has slowed delivery of new inventory but I hope to have more by the end of next week.

Love mine and had them for a long time now.

She’s Home. Thanks for all the input here guys. Your opinions and sage advice all helped me finally make my decision. I drove my 6-3 down to E-Motion Engineering this morning to make the swap. I must admit the drive down was bittersweet. My 6-3 still delivers the mail, but the drive home was on another level! What a machine this is, and the work Joey Seely did to make this car what it is, well,... simply sublime. I’m Stoked!!! I will share better pics soon. I’ll also include some great pics of the suspension and undercarriage. Wow, it’s frickin gorgeous...

A beauty. Congratulations!
