Was yours in the ballpark?
I am going to be at the dealer tomorrow morning. I'll PM you my contact info.

Oliver at Millenial Motors has a gorgeous 997.2 GT3 in GT Silver asking a very reasonable 103k and I saw there is a beautiful white 997.1 GT3 in Porsche of Jacksonville for a reasonable price.

Thanks! I will check it out. It seems like the dealership I was working with took a deposit from another buyer.

Edit: I just looked at theirs and it has some kind of aftermarket skirts and other aftermarket stuff installed. Damn it!

Yeah, not for me. I want stock and those ricer side skirts make me wonder what other crap they did to the car.

This is what happens when you mess with a masterpiece:

I will say this, however. Do budget $1,300 or so for an RSS (or Sharkwerks) centre bypass. I installed mine a few days after I bought the car and the difference is night and day. Video doesn't even come close to doing the sound justice.



Not sure if your search is limited to USA, but this Canadian car is priced right. I'd be all over this if I didn't buy my car.

No I haven't, but then again I don't know any GT3 guys who want the garbage Fabspeed manufactures installed on their cars. Let's put it this way -- my mechanic offered me a Fabspeed centre bypass for pennies on the dollar and I passed.

Why the Fabspeed hate?

But +1 on the center bypass. Sharkwerks is a thing of beauty with PSE.

I have no issue with Fabspeed. I have been to their shop, had them work on my car and currently have some of their parts installed.

However, a GT3 is something that I want to keep in its original form and appreciate it for what it is. If I did any mods, they would be reversible and I would sell it in stock condition.


By the way, the original car the potential buyer's credit fell through so that is back on the table.

He's always got amazing cars. It's Millenia Motors though, just for clarity sake
