again, no track nor twisties in the 3 yet, but since u mentioned 930, my 930 feels quicker accelerating. looks like here everyone buy the gt3, a street car, for the track, too bad theres no track where im from, but that doesnt seem to be the point. the point from most is people are fast in the 3 on a non-existant track.
funny reading people defending the 3, to me it felt slow and i was underwhelmed, u dont have to of course.
some ask stuff like my age or am i real, what does that have to do with the 3. u dont see me arguing.

I've been passed on the track by a lot of slow GT3s in my cheater car (930) and this thread raised my curiosity as to why this was happening. I went back and looked at all of my videos and realized that I was lifting when being passed by GT3s. I'm not sure why this was ...

I can see how you would find it slow on take off.
But again, the GT3 is not developed to be a muscle car.
It is full interior luxo version of the CUP car.

Sooooooo, tell us about yourself. How do you like to drive your cars? Where do you like to drive your cars? Have you been to many race tracks? Do you drive them? Do you like them? You've got a very impressive car collection... so you must know your engines. The 997.1 gt3 accelerates pretty much the same as a new 997 carrera S PDK, a Ferrari 360, some would say even a Ferrari 430... a 997.2 which has marginally more power keeps pace with an M6... hmm, yeah thats about the gist of it. 3.6L, 415 bhp. Thats how much power it has, and, kind of consequentially, thats the amount of power it feels like it has. Its a good amount of power, good enough to break traction in 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear (when on track), but nothing really special. Def not up there with some of the machinery you've got.
But, you must have known that before you got in right? I mean, your gt2 has the same engine but with TWO turbochargers. Were you expecting it to be quicker?
