Default FS my Carrara White Gt3

After long thought I am putting my 2007 GT3 up for sale. I am planning on starting a good size remodel job on the house and have no need for 6 cars at this point. The car was ordered to spec by myself and delivery was taken in Stuttgart. The car has been broken in gently and to recommendations in Europe without any sheenanigans (I was subject to SVC - spousal velocity control). The car has 1100 miles on it, of which 1000 miles were in Europe. The car has had absolutely no track time.

The options on the car include:

PCM/Navigation
Adaptive Sport Seats
Full Leather Interior
Carbon Interior Package
Leather Rear Console
Leather Door Finishers
GT3 Logo in Console
Headrest Crests
Fire Extinguisher
Michelin Pilot Sport Cup Tires

The car is stored in an air conditioned garage, and has been treated to a base coat of Klasse All In One applied by a Porter Cable. On top of that I put a coat of P21S carnuba paste wax, followed by a spritz of Duragloss Aquawax detailer. It is the best looking 911 to date in the best color of Carrara White. I am asking for $125k - Rennlist member price

Good luck with the sale. You'll have no problems selling it, trust me. But while we both agree it is the best looking 911 to date, SY is actually the best color. This is objectively proven. LOL. Seriously, sweet ride.

WHY??!! You got the best of both worlds. do I go to Amarillo in 4 hours in the TT? or do I go to TWS with the GT3? You got the perfect setup NO compromise-If you got 6 cars then you keep the TT for the 4 seat family car and the GT3 for everything else.
But then again if youre going to do a remodel you'll get more for the GT3 than the TT. GT3s with less than 2K are still going over MSRP and yours only has break in miles. You should be able to get a nice premium over.

Was wondering why you decided to keep the TT over the GT3?'

Jeff,

ok, second best color

Rich,

I have a very fast dedicated track car which I can drive much more aggressively with much less recourse (~$10k total) from mishaps. My wife likes to track and drives the TT well, but is uncomfortable with the stiff clutch in the Gt3. I have no cornering to entertain me on the uninspiring Houston roads beyond an emergency lane change, and my TT is pushing 600hp and is lowered and aligned to Gt3 specs. My toddlers are just getting old enough to get taken around outside the family truckster, and it is a waste to keep such a wonderful car that I alone will get to exploit perhaps a few hours per month. I almost feel like a "Ferrari" owner in that I am almost counting miles on the car now. I am not in despair since I will be getting a 6 car garage/workshop with a lift in return.

Yeah, it thought it was going to live in that air conditioned garage forever!

Good luck on the sale!

So Frayed and you both live in...Texas (insert weird ghostly sounds)

Hmmm...very interesting......

Is this some secessionistic act?

Or are you selling to cover markers lost on Friday night football games?

Jeffrey leads, I follow. It's been like that for over a decade now beginning in our E36 years. I just didn't quite get sucked into the Fiat realm like he did.
