Anyone considering selling/trading their 997TT for a 997GT3? If so, what is your thinking? And if you wouldn't consider it, tell us why.

 

GT3 is great, just too one demensional for me, while the TT really does it all, quite well.

 

no torque

 

No, and I am selling the Gt3.

TT - more versatile, more passengers, all weather. Much more power stock, and stage II cars are more power than the new upcoming GT2. Handling and feel easily improved with lowering springs and alignment. TT will be able to keep up with the newest peformance bar for years

GT3- beautiful, great tactile feel, surprisingly good on street. Peaky torque - drive it like an S2000 for power. Already at its peak, cannot keep up with future performance levels.

 

I would never trade my TT for any other variant...but perhaps the same question posed to GT3 guys would get the exact opposite reply...

 

TT, I need the rear seats for my 8 and 5 year olds. They love it. GT3? When the kids are too big, then maybe.

 

Rear seats, POWER nuff said.

Did I mention POWER!!!

 

TT with, manifold, muffler, intercooler, intake , 100+ octane GIAC race gas program and power braking you can do the 60 in 2.5secs, quarter mile in 11secs.
Not bad for a car cost one tenth of a Veyron.

 

TT is a better car.
GT3 is the better toy. more limited in use.

i have GT3, but i can tell you that a well driven TT with some minor mods will be as fast as GT3.

 

2.5 seconds is a wee bit optimistic. 10.9x second quarters have already been done with that setup as well. You are right though, it is a half-price supercar

 

I want a DD that I can take on occasional canyon carving weekends, once a month 800-1000 miles trip, and once or twice a year be comfortable with my wife maybe driving some on a 4K+ mile road trip.

It just would not look right pulling up to the market, the gym, the dog park or my Granddaughter's school with a GT3 track appliance. Rowing through gears in local traffic. I have a sloped driveway.

 

Traded in my TT for a 997C2s two months after getting the GT3 RS.

 

The GT3 is more of a drivers car(rear wheel dr).The Turbo is 4x4 and has 250lbs more.
they will be very different behind the wheel.

 

No way, trading the TT for the GT3 is like going back down the steps. Porsche has 2 branches and TT is on top of one of them and the GT3 is only second to the top, with GT3RS the top dog on the other side. I would consider the GT2 to be the crown of both branches but with bias towards the track branch.

eclou's decision is one of the best indicator, he has both but he's keeping the TT instead of the GT3, it really tells you how GOOD the TT really is.

 

There is NO 4 passenger car that can do less than 3secs 60's with a few grand mods. Not even F612, CL65, ContiGT.
