Default My New GT3

Hey Guys!

Just got home with my new to me GT3. Pretty high option GT3 from the factory

Purchased in San Fran and drove it back to LA.

Thanks to Brian the seller for being such an awesome seller to deal with.

Thanks to mooty for all the info on this car.

I miss the torque on my 997 turbo, but love revving this thing to 8Krpms!

Its a thrill! Get one and don't look back.

I actually know of one for sale that hasn't hit the market yet. PM me if you're interested.

Congrats on the GT3, I considered this one but in the end did not want another whitey. I also had MKIV fever for about 10 years, then got tired of the ca smog and stepped into an EVT775, was not as fast as the Supra but no contest in refinement and powerband. The Supra felt like a truck when driving them back to back.

Thanks!

my last supra is what actually pushed me into the P-car world. Trying to smog in California with a modded supra and ducking CHP is too much of a risk.

I went from a my last 3 single turbo supras to a 997 turbo (which I had realized that the power band of a supra was old compared to to the porsche turbo) and then now to a GT3 for a fun canyon carver!
