Earlier this morning Intercity dropped off my belated birthday present from me to me in the form of a 2007 GT3. The car originally was owned by Rennlister "SGonzo" who took immaculate care of it through his 4 years of ownership.
Details are: Meteor Gray metallic; 8500 miles; LWFW; Shark Werks By-pass; full clear protection by Premier; Cargraphic radiator screens; and a few miscellaneous bits and pieces.
While waiting for the car to be picked up, I had Shark Werks install a few suspension goodies as well. A HUGE "Thank You" goes out to Alex and all the guys at Shark Werks as they were generous enough to store my car for several weeks at their facility while shipping arrangements were finalized.
First impressions: all I can say is WOW!!! The car looks amazing, has phenomenal handling attributes, and sounds absolutely SICK with the Shark Werks by-pass (and Sport button engaged). I could not be happier with the transaction and the only regret I have is not buying a GT3 years ago...
Thanks again to Steve (SGonzo) for a quick, clean, and easy tranaction. Also another Thanks to Alex at Shark Werks (total first class operation!!!). Dave Wilson, owner of Intercity, was instrumental in ironing out a few minor wrinkles in shipping and truly proved why Intercity should be THE only choice in car shipping. Randy (the driver) and his wife were totally awesome as they kept me apprised of the status of my delivery day and provided a city by city routing schedule.
Lastly, thanks to Mooty who, over the course of several emails, convinced me that the 7-3 would probably suit my needs better than my original thought of a 6-2. And, in his infinite wisdom, told me to simply post a WTB thread here on RL to find my car.
Attached are a few crappy cell phone pix. After putting on about 100 miles today, I am truly worried about the future status of my driver's license....

Nice car!
Just got my new to me .2 GT3 a few weeks ago- drove it home from Tennesee with my son (doubling it's mileage in one long day!) and luckily had no rain and no cops!!
993 behind it is my son's- we had a road trip 2 weeks before getting the GT3 to pick up his car in Little Rock.
I raised the kid right!

Congrats! I recently purchased my 2007 GT3 from a fellow Rlister as well ![Smilie](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
I'm sure you'll love the car even more on the track (if you go). You really can't appreciate the performance on the street

The plan is to just street it, as I have a Cup for track duty. But I've also said the same about other cars I've owned---hah.

Hi Mike, I am glad she is in her new home, have fun. Glad you like her and I am happy she went to a fellow rennlister. You were a pleasure to deal with. Also Thank you again to Alex for helping reinstall the bypass and storing the car.
