Hi,

I have never ridden/driven a GT3, and the chance of grabbing a test drive from local dealers are slim to none. Are there any SF Bay Area Rennlisters willing to give me a ride in their 997 GT3?

I am not interested in the RS, although I would not turn down a ride in one of those either. I'm interested in the more cushy GT3. I'll trade ride with my Ruf BTR.

Anyone? Anyone....

Pong,

You might want to try Carlsen, they have a couple used GT3's right now.

If you don't get any rides before my car gets here then I'll be glad to do it.

I'm available, but in Danville & Walnut Creek. PM me if you like with your contact info.

ps: Gt3 is no more "cushy" than the RS.

I thought the RS deletes most of the sound deadening found in the GT3. Also read posts from different RS owners that they feel the vibrations a lot more accutely in the GT3 RS.

i am not so sure that is true.


the vibration in GT3 and RS are about the same; both vibrate less then 996gt3.
with regard to "vibration" you may have heard, i think that refers to single mass flywheel. you can hear the rattle, but it is very minor, unlike a cup car.

There's the same carpeting and rear shelf part numbers. I can't be sure since the head-liners are different, but if there no difference in insulation in the roof, at least the tin top would have a little more resonance than the sunroof.
