come on people, say what you want, but reality prevails. a gt3 is a great car, but a tt is a better daily car in the northeast. how can a reasonable person not say that an awd car with a more compliant suspension and psm is not a better northeast daily driver? certainly, the gt3 is a great track car, but on an icey winter day, come on now.

Think of it this way, if you bought the TT would you have regrets about not buying the GT3 - I know I would.
Also, shouldn't the more money you spend on a Porsche, the more Porsche like that car be? PSM, compliant suspension, AWD are all the wrong direction. If you want a Porsche as a daily driver pick up a used 996 C2 (could keep the GT3, all for the same price as an X50).

metal,
i think doc is pointing out that where it snows and gets ugly 4WD is handy. i agree. altho' any porsche with snows on is great in the winter.
i concur with your thoughts on TT vs GT3 and btw gt2. gt2/3 are much better handling, balanced cars as their suspensions are a quantum leap ahead.
as to compliance or lack thereof, i set my gt2 very soft which is safer for slow posers at the track and stays on the road better in open road racing. a gt2/3 can be nearly as compliant yet much firmer tha a stock TT but wdik?
