Hi,
Back in 2018 I foolishly sold my 2008 GT3. Regretted it soon after, chased after my former car, it's in Florida somewhere but that's as far as I got.
In the meantime, I bought a PTS 991.2 GT3, loved that car but it was a "bull in a China shop" experience, living in my small mountain town. Have followed the market closely over the years, almost bought a mint 996 GT3 last December, and have been hovering for the right car.
This past week I found it!
2007 GT3 in Meteor Grey, with 16,000 original miles. RS clutch/flywheel, Sharkwerks center exhaust & Sharkwerks tune.
Nice to see Meteor was an un-common color with only 39 produced for the NA market. The color-coded wheels really drew me in, as I'm not typically a silver-gray buyer.
Car spent most of its life in California, then sold on Pcar mkt to a boutique dealer in Detroit, MI. Their client only drove it sparingly then sold back to dealer. Worked a fair deal with them last week and I'm excited to be back in the GT3 game!
Here are a few pics of the car over the last few years. I'll post more out in the wild when it arrives next week.

Congratulations on another new to you Porsche. Remember the 2012 TTS you had in the summer of 2018? Well it now has 69,000 miles and I am still smiling. Enjoy the GT3.
