An upshift light on the dash??
Now that SUCKS.
It doesn't look like it's going to be wide bodied. Maybe the RS.

Looks good, like the competition package, notice how they go out of their way talking about 'track days', nice to hear.

I searched the forums here and I couldnt find anything.
My guess is 135k for the base.
maybe we should have one of those 'poll' games

I severely doubt the base price will jump 36,000. (Rather, I hope)

Thanks for pointing that out Driveby.
I haven't been on Roadfly in a long time.
Almost looks like someone took pics with a spy camera!

my 997s with x51 is 107k with the options i ordered.
if the base gt3 is 99k - i would have to be insane not to get the base gt3.

According to RC over at Rennteam, 997 GT3 base will be USD $106K,
first cars arrive in U.S. around August. RC is in Germany, seems to get v. accurate advance info.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm rather disappointed in its styling. Boxster like exhaust tips, WTF? Compared to the 996 GT3, this is FUGLY!
Following the heels of the 997 Turbo, thumbs down to this GT3 as well.
