Great looking car! I love it!
You said that any GT3 with track time needs to have the CL hubs inspected and swapped out at some point. Say you buy a car from a dealer: it is clean and there is no evidence of anything amiss, and of course the dealer took it on trade and didn't ask about it. What determines whether the hubs need to be replaced? Is there a certain standard of play? Cracking or torque not being correct? I have read that it is XXX "track miles" but that can vary as well, depending on the track and how hard the car has been driven. I know a 70-year old guy with a Cayman R who tracks a lot, and he didn't even go through a set of tires in an entire season; his wear and tear is likely to be different than yours.
Is this similar to coolant pipe failure, in that it just "goes" unexpectedly one day? I would love to pick up a 997.2 GT3 one day far into the future, but every regular Porsche mechanic I have spoken with does not know the answer to this, or has even heard of a CL failure.
Good luck with your sale. It is a sweet ride for someone

There is a big thread on here about CL failure. It is a good read. Pretty sure there was a video floating around of a rear CL failure at WGI on the right hand sweeper at start of back straight. No doubt you are correct about differences in wear with different drivers/tracks. But of course it is an unknown. The question is, at what point is one willing to risk a failure? Is it the number of track miles Porsche recommends? My guess is their recommendation is very conservative for obvious reasons. But at some point it should be done on a car that sees enough track time. When comparing other cars to mine, I am definitely stating that this “somewhat unknown” safety factor is a “known” on this car, having been completed in February of this year.
