Just a thought.
Please consider quoting a post you are referring to rather than just "quick reply".
Some / many posts talk about specific cars, but don't always include enough info to understand which car you are referencing.
Cheers

For those who actually own 997 GT3/RS, how many have actually bought blind (aka without ever driving it)? I have always thought my grail car would be the 991RS, but after driving it I didn't feel engaged on the street, which made me rethink the car (still looks amazing though!).
997 GT3/RS can't really be rented anymore, and I doubt any owner will let prospective buyers drive it either. How have actual owners dealt with this when they bought?

Having ridden in a .1 GT3 prior to ever driving one, I can tell you even a ride may be beneficial. May be difficult with COVID this year, but the sensation I got from the passenger seat was similar to what I got in the drivers seat from the sound, handling, etc.
The most enjoyable cars I’ve ridden in have also been the same ones I enjoyed driving the most.

Yes I drove my .2 before buying. And it was at a Porsche dealership...
Once I found the exact car I was interested in, I called & placed a refundable deposit (which they said was good for 48 hrs). They understood my serious intent. The car was 12 hours away from me. I towed my trailer there the next day, and put it through paces. Drove it for 20 min, put it up on a lift & allowed me to inspect myself for 30 min, had the PPI sheets to inspect while I was under there too.
My two biggest surprises in buying a 997 GT3 for the first time, was the 1) $2,500 deposit, and 2) Good for only 48 hrs. The previous Porsche I bought from a dealership was a used 2012 Cayenne Turbo, and that was a $500 deposit, good for a full 7 days.

Very much appreciate it sir! Unfortunately I’m in the Bay Area in CA. I know there should be a bunch of owners here as well, just gotta see if they are willing at least have me sit in it.
