Welcome to the Vancouver GT3 community! Growing by the day it seems! There's lots of us in town and lots of help on Rennlist, so don't hesitate to ask!

Thanks guys.

Just to be specific - we have agreed on price, but I am still seeing how best to get this done.

I'll post pictures when I do have it in the garage!

Fly in, bring money, drive home

Or is it an import thing? I exported my car to Canada via a US dealer to dealer in the US.
This way you keep all warranties and get it turned into a Km car etc.

I know of a 2010 GT3 with every option, clean car but has 10,000 miles already. I can get it for under $100k but the miles are scaring me a little. I gave DD's car some thought but it was too far for me.

I doubt international far!

No matter the cost, I believe all owners on the forums here forget about costs quickly once they enjoy their cars like they were meant to be. And the last manual only GT3,... sure PDK is faster, more efficient, but there will be nothing that replaces heal-toe downshifting and the connection with a car that a manual transmission brings.

I'll look forward to seeing how this experience with a 997.2 GT3 is versus my memories of the 997.1 GT3 RS!

Congrats on finding your GT3! It is a great looking, well appointed car - had me drooling LOL.
In my case a purchase is a few months away at least, but would be interesting to know if you eventually transfer to Barrier, CPO the car,etc. and how it all goes with RIV program. Good first hand info is appreciated. Thanks for sharing your journey on RL.
