This may have no relevance, but I've never heard of Marino Performance Motors. Don't think they have much to do with performance. Looks like it might be some sort of hi-line used car dealer. You might call Roger H. at Orbit and ask if he knows this shop. He's not far away.

Riviera Beach itself is a pretty rough area.

I don't like my racing seats for really long trips. My lower back starts to hurt a bit, as does my right foot. It looks like your foot will also suffer the same thing on an 8 hour drive based on this pic

I hate cruise control. my car has it, but even on aforementioned 1800 mile trip, I never used it.

Can someone explain how they got this Styrofoam tray in backwards? And why?

For better handling tyre compressor is heavier.

It's the only option I wish I had...

I believe it is not too hard to add cruise control to a GT3.. (I remember reading it here that someone did it and it was a few hundred dollars..)

Thanks for the info! I will do a little searching, and hopefully figure something out. FWIW, I asked my tech this exact question a few months ago after a long road trip. The answer was that it is easy if your car is wired for it (i.e., just add the steering column piece that has the cruise, and plug it in). If your car is not wired (like mine), there is much more to do, and it's expensive. I'll keep my fingers crossed that he was misinformed!

This is the Rennlist thread I found:

And this is the RennTech article that it referenced:

Forget the ronald mcdonald car and look at this GT3, now THAT is a GT3

I love the cruise control in both my Porsches. Both use E-Gas.

Use cruise control all the time. Nice to set the car's speed at the posted limited and then not have to keep checking the speedo to avoid going over the limit and possibly getting a ticket (Porsches of course really attract that kind of attention). Makes me a better driver cause I can keep my eyes on the lookout for other cars, bike rides, people, pets, etc.

In cars without cruise or if I try to get by not using it in my current cars, on a long trip -- several thousand miles over several days -- the heel of my right foot would get tender from the constant pressure of being rested on the floor board at the gas pedal.

Love cruise control. And autoclimate control.

Sincerely,

Macster.

I actually like the ronald mcdonald car better. I need something to brighten up the garage. The silver 996 is gone, still have a silver Lexus and a white Boxster. If I was racing it would be great, but I'm done, don't need the stress, the time commitment, or financial drain. I've entered hundreds of full blown Superbike motorcycle roadraces, have boxes of trophies and plaques, won some, broke lots of bones, had fun. Now I climb mountans, rock and ice.

Yea, I noticed no CC, comes with the territory I guess, not a deal breaker. Safe to wick the car over a buck and a half without the splitter? The yellow/yellow/yellow may help keep me in line and save my licence. It's like a screamin' yellow zonker, screaming, "look at me, I'm fast, bad assed"

Woah, I shouldn't have sucked in that beer so fast, so, I like the color combo and I think I can stand the seats. When I take a customer to lunch or a friend for a drink, it would be worth it to see the expression on their face when they strap in, lol.

I'm enjoying the comments, keep 'um comin'

While sitting on the fence, it slipped away.

I might could have been happy with that car.

What I liked:
low miles, overall appearance, Euro GT3 seat with yellow accents, covered roll bar, yellow gauges, body colored wheels, performance exhaust

What I didn't like:
I really want a Cab, too much plastic inside (like full leather) no cruise control, I'd miss adjustable rake on seats. Yellow ticket magnet
