Finally! Dell is back in a GT3!!!!
I can't tell y'all how long it has felt like since I was last in a GT3. It's been over 3 years since I sold my 996GT3 and have missed that scream of a GT1 flat-6 at over 8K rpm.
After going to through many cars and talking to many dealers and even having one deal in place that fell through, I have finally found the perfect GT3 for me.
The three big things I really wanted were (1) white; (2) CPO; and (2) PCM. You might be thinking, why PCM as a requirement? Well simple, I plan to street drive this mostly and I really wanted the functionality that PCM gives me with the Dension fiber optic bridge and BT kit gives for ipod and phone controls.
Well I got all three
Here are the specs.....
2007 997.1 GT3
8K miles
CPO (2 years and 50K miles)
Carrara White
Black Leather Interior
PCM
Sport Chrono Plus
Thicker Steering Wheel in Leather
Self Dimming Mirrors and Rain Sensor
Bi-Xenon Package
Aluminum Pedals
Factory Wheels refinished in gloss black just a couple months ago (will relegate to track and replace with another set of silver ones for street)
Just got done having the funds sent so this deal is OFFICIAL! My wife and I are flying out next week to pick her up and drive home. Should be a great adventure.
I'll have some pics up shortly. Need to get some downloaded to my computer first. In the meantime, here's my new desktop
**edit....just posted a few shots. I'll have more and VIDEO in a few**
ps. a huge thanks to Bob (aka VIPERBOB) for totally taking care of me with the PPI and his critical eye.
Video of the car and the dyno run. Pulled 356.8 at the wheels which equates to roughly 419.8hp (356.8/0.85) so it is spot on to the factory claim.

Congrats, sounds good.
I have the Tooki and Dension units removed from my C2S if you are interested in them. Dension will work with my CDR24, but Tooki won't. Let me know if you have any interest in them.

Thanks everybody! I am so stoked!!!!
Thanks for the offer. I'll probably buy new from Eric at Bumperplugs as I have some other things to buy from him.
What's all the modding talk? Stock is where it's at baby
What do you mean by nav kit. Can you elaborate?

It will sell, when I decide to post it. Christmas is coming, and everyone likes to buy a Xmas present for themselves
