Thanks,

Thinking of switching to RS, so mine may be for sale soon. It is 2010 GT3, black, black interior, nav, front end lift, PCCB in a box saving them before they die on track, new PFC slotted front rotors, new turbo rear rotors, 2 sets silver 18 BBS, rear toe links with track setup. RSS rear roll bar, black, black 6pt harnesses. RSS Xpipe. 11k miles, 9k on the track. Had a minor bonk at Oaktree at VIR, bumped tire wall and dinged up left rear and left front, have not had it repaired as it is only cosmetic.

Need to find a good used 2010 or 2011 RS first before I sell mine. Maybe one that is already track ready. But would like one with 5 lug, not center lock, but can convert myself. Ideally with roll bar, harnesses, suspension upgrade, guard LSD, recaro seat, BLACK.

Clarke, your car sounds like the right set up for what I want but wouldn't consider track use that many miles and certainly no "bonk". Good luck in your search for RS though. There are many out there as nice values and it will make up for beating you're going to take on your car.

I admire the guys who use their cars to the fullest. With that comes a price, but it's actually lesser than not using it much. I've been guilty of the latter and am resolved NOT to do that if I get a GT3.

Just wondering if anyone thinks that the appearance of the 991 will have some GT3 owners trading their cars in? Probably no one from here as IB forum members tend to be real "users" of their cars, but those who purchased cars-as-jewelry and maybe now have tired of the "punishment" the GT3 can dole out. I'm sure at least 75% GT3 purchases are DD/street use as opposed to mostly track. Will be interesting to see in the coming months and especially here in northeast as we get through winter...

I had a friend go see it and that's what he reports. It's very nice but not exactly the way I'd spec a car, so we'll see. Jesse and I are still talking...
