Congratulations MJ. I can't wait to hear about the cross country trips in the GT3.

I'm still debating on whether I should save the Turbo or not. Will it be that much quicker? I don't know. Never driven one.

What color will this one be?

I think he wore it out from driving it so much.

There's not much left.

Holy crap! Nice order! GT3 with PCCB's.! Very nice! I'd love to see her when you get delivery!

My PCCB's are insane when they heat up! No fade! I have a bit of a whine, sometimes loud. Almost sounds like a bad bearing. PCA rep to test car due to cost of the rotors if it IS a rotor. You'll love these things! Besides, they look good too!

I love the new GT3 and the way it now looks. Nice and low.

Oh yea, my lower Aero lip is so curb damaged that I got the GT3 one as it's matte black anyway. Original comes primed only. Trust me, you'll go through several! Steep driveways are the worst! Or speed bumps. Or in my case, I wacked a curb when parking.

More specs!

ENJOY!!!

Default Curb Feelers: OMFG!

Oh man, now that's funny! Nice! Can you imagine?

You'll see what I'm talking about when you get your GT3. The lower lip is about $240. Invest in at least one. Take your original off, store it, then put on a "spare". Which I did that first! BTW, the Armorglove prevented the worst. In fact, it looked worse until I pulled the film off. Armorglove DOES work!

Moredetail on your order!

Deanski,

I wonder if they will make a rubber type bottom lip... I mean I think that it would be matte black and likely hold up better, right?

Congrats on your order. I hope the wait is not too long. I'm anxious to hear about your impressions of the GT3 on the road and track.
