Default Some picts of the new 2
I finally got around to a few pictures of the new car. The mods have started.
Painted lower trim and rear bumperettes.
Thanks for looking!

GT3's are hot cars and I'm certain they can run the pants off of most everything on the road ... BUT ... when driving the GT2, you feel as though you are king of the jungle.

GT2 is the Shiznitt

It"s an '02 that had 91 miles when I took possession in Febuary. I paid 140k for the car and it currently has just over 300 miles on it. I also had it certified.

It was a bit more than I wanted to spend but after realizing that it is a "new"
car, I just decided to pull the trigger. Quite honestly at this level another
5 to 10 grand did not make a difference to me...I knew exactly what I was getting.

I did apply the clear 3m bra to the entire lower front lip to prevent stone chips.
I also thought if it get accidently bumped, it is easy enough and realitively
inexpensive to do all over again. It now looks the way it should have from the factory.

Coming from a 993 Turbo of 5 years, it is safe to say that this car is in an entirely differently league & I have hardly even driven it.

Thanks for the feedback. Next up will be a set of wheels. I am thinking
of the 19" Champion RG-5 Monolite's.

Don't put 19's on it, trust me I know. The best tires by far are on 18's. It would spoil the car.

CodeRed,
What types of problems are you aware of with the 19" wheels on the car?
