Have you driven a GT3 yet? I'm not saying I wouldn't do what you're suggesting, but you're certainly stepping into the deep end for you first Porsche daily driver. I don't know the car in question, but it looks nice in photos. The company selling it has a RENTAL EXOTICS tab on their website. I would be much less interested in the car if I knew they had rented it out...... Not saying they did, just something I would want to know more about.

Edit: they do list 911 GT3 as a car in the rental fleet. Again, they don't call out that one specifically

@GoVols (Can't send PM for some reason), I have a GR 7.2 GT3 that is for sale. PM me for details if interested, or anyone else. Thanks!

Ask them to send you the Carfax for starters and hire someone very good to do the PPI (don’t rely only on a Porsche Dealer inspection as I almost did.) There were $30k of additional issues that didn’t occur to the Porsche dealer when they wrote up the first $20k. It really was that bad.

Best of luck out there.
