Default My "New" GT3
This is my new 2004 GT3. I finally, after 3+ weeks stopped driving it long enough to wash it and take some quick pictures.

For those interested I will post a full up article on this car and contrast the new GT3 to the old 993 C2, which I traded in (some contrast). I will let everyone know when the web site is up and running.

Have a safe and Happy New Year!

Still looks great.

I've seen that "oh so red" option selection before -- did this come from a fellow Rennlister?

This car looks so fresh -- they haven't even adjusted the tips from the oddly "down" factory positioning.

I guess there's been a bit of a rush on GT3s before years' end.

I don't think so. The previous owner traded it for a new 997 GT3, but I don't think he is on this board. Could be wrong, but I would love to meet him and see his new ride when he gets it!

Loving this car. It is everything I wanted in a sports car and more.

I ordered it when I had my 993.

Now I need to reorder a new one, but it will be worth it!

Either that or you could just drain all the coolant out.

It does come on the door but you have to order full leather to get that. The door in his picture is not leather.

I'd be interested in reading your article because I'm in the same boat.

I'm thinking of getting a GT3 and selling my 993.
