A couple of pics as it sits in Toronto in the showroom.
Carm (and Helena), congratulations - beautiful car!

What's the plan for track use (vs. the Stradale)?

Cheers

Thanks Matt (n Nat)

You will see it in the spring at the latest.

The GT3 will be used on the track more often then the Stradale.

I will not be modding the GT3 at all though, luckily I have gotten over that Bug since the 993 days.

Some of you all were talking about the Sharkwerks and BBI exhaust systems. Does anyone have demonstrable power increases from these exhaust systems? The website gets real vague around that issue.

Full Sharkwerks/Evoms system. Definitely increases across the range easily felt and demonstrated on the dyno:

You post enough goodies on here that makes you the #1 terrible influence on modding

I will email you but it won't be about mods it will be to keep up with how many GT3s you have managed to collect.

The GT3 has a few mods on it. One of them is a bypass but the dealer doesn't know which one. How would I know if it's a Sharkwerks? Also, anyway to detect if it's been flashed?

There is a small cross member piece on the bottom of the bypass. On the bottom of it it's stamped 'Shark Werks'.

Got it! Thanks! Weather in Colorado has delayed the delivery - getting anxious!

I know how you feel. Mine was located in Detroit when I bought it, it was in January. My delivery got delayed two weeks due to weather- longest two weeks ever.

I was getting anxious too, just got mine delivered on Dec 29th and drove it to a climate controlled storage spot, Primo Storage on Dec 30th while the roads were nice and dry.

Its going to be a long winter

Let us know when you get yours.

Happy New Year!

Rare dry day (cold however) in Portland so I washed her off and took a spin through Skyline Blvd. Several tunnels along the way for barking the Sharky bypass! Couldn't imagine putting this away for a winter. Mine is a driver and I prefer it that way.

Congrats on the purchase OP!
