Wow, those guys in San Antonio certainly are ballsy. That MB GT3 is the car that was for sale in MA for the last month and a half with an asking price of $124 and they couldn't sell it so a Porsche dealer gets it and asks almost $20k more for the same car?

I believe the list price of that car was low $150's new. It is a nice car but that is more than comparable RS's are pulling so the question is what is MB worth?

They had another MB one a few months ago, sales manager told me he found it at a non-pcar dealer up North, possibly in NY, they sold it a few weeks later, but I dont' know what they got.
Was in there looking at Panameras lately, they had a 2010 base they wanted the same as you could spec a new one for.

Ha, I saw Larry Cable's MB driving up 280 this evening and thought of this thread. It's the first MB I've seen in real life and the color is simply stunning. I was in a red VW R32 buzzing around you for a bit....

+1 for Larry's MB, I had a few good looks at it yesterday!

Seeing the Riviera Blue RS in front of the MB 2010 GT3 and chasing them both in a 2007 GT3 (silver of course ) was pretty epic, so much beauty.

one of these days....

I will grow up to a GT3, but I'm pretty sold on color now - I know - that shouldn't be priority.

I'll wait for Larry's or maybe get inot a .1RS in green

Really nice .1 RS Green for sale on here. Already has the Euro spec rollbar. Then again it would be hard to part with our car. I really like the black wheels on her.

Larry, don't forget the drive down Mt. Hamilton! it was great to finally meet you, you do have a bluetiful car! And that's coming from a guy who thinks all Porsches should be silver! Love those black HRE's with the blue! Sorry about the rock chips! and cow %hit!
