also,

If there is any modding to be done, it is modding the driver first because I know I will never be able to master the full potential of the car in its stock form

again, thanx for the warm welcome everyone!!!!!
if you ever plan to be in the S.F Bay area ... let "us" know in advance ... we'll put together a little "Bay Area GT3 meet and greet" ...

Anyway, enjoy - it's a beauty

Mooty might have some really sweet GT2 carbon buckets for sale. Ping him and be prepared to drive to the peninsula to pick them up! These seats are the BEST!!!

White is right! Congrats! I've had mine since mid Nov. and I think I am ready to start tracking soon. It just keeps begging me when I drive it to take it to the track.

Congrats on the car. I still think white looks the best on the 7.1s. GT3s just rock, and I have already made the pact with myself that I will ALWAYS have a GT3 in my garage...

Here comes the slippery slope! Enjoy.
