Just thought i'd say hi as I just picked up a 2007 Blk/Blk GT3. My second P-Car, previously had a 96' 993 Twin. Been driving an RS4 for the past 5 years. Enjoyed the RS, but this car has surpassed my expectations. The engagement between you and the car is second to none, can't wait for the days to come! 1st two mods, tooki bluetooth and silver hood crest on order. I keep telling myself that's all i'm doing to her, as I know far too well what a slippery slope this can be .

Congrats. I also came from an RS4 (keeping it) and the Gt3 is incomparable.

Congratulations!

I'd suggest rad screens if not already done.

Just did the same as well 2 months ago. Going to keep the RS4 as it's probably the most complete sports sedan for the northeast.

Interesting to see so many RS4->GT3 moves. I wonder if that number is greater than the RS4->R8...

Congrats on your purchase. I've had mine for a week and can't stop going out to the garage to look at it and love to make up fake errands to run.

So is there pretty good knowledge on the lineage of these cars? If so, I'd love to know if I picked up an RL car.

2010 Guards Red GT3
PCCB
15K miles
and a whole bunch of other small options

It was sold at Checkered Flag Porsche and was a Virginia (possibly Virginia beach car).
