Only a 200mi trip but a good one. This is the ONLY car I’ve ever owned that I am impressed with more and enjoy more, the longer I own it and the more miles I pour on it. Every car before it (and there are a few) hit some peak once I got used to it and then ultimately started to be less and less fun every time I turned the key. If this one has a peak, I’m not there yet. I like it materially more than I did 5k miles ago and I liked it a lot then too. The 4.0 kept my attention longest prior to this but it’s gone now. It plateaued early and held on for quite a while. In fairness, if I add up total miles on all 997 2/3/rs platforms, I still have a ways to go in the GT to catch that. So far, almost every time I turn the key, the experience keeps getting better.
^^^ugggh I had an epic driving trip thru Italian Dolomites cut short a couple of years ago and don’t know if I’ll ever be able to replicate the trip. Wow, was it beautiful and some of the most epic scenic roads. I didn’t have the CGT with me; GR gt3 instead; maybe next time?

beautiful
I did not have chance to drive dolomite but I rode 300 miles 30k vertical feet maybe higher around dolomite on bicycle with inGamba in 2019
1500 miles now, France, the Riviera and now the Italian Dolomites.
My goal is 100k miles before I hang up my driving gloves.
What amazes me (and thrills me with joy) is the appeal this automotive gem has amongst the younger generation.
Every stop we see some Insta guys and girls taking pictures 😁

fkg awsome
we are hoping covid delta to clear out. we have a small group on west coast of US who drives from SF to San Diego on all the fun curvy unknown roads. I did that in CGT.
just followed u on IG

I made two new American muscle friends near Harriman yesterday. And logged another couple hundred miles. I’m hoping I’ll pass 20k on the odo by end of driving season up here; we’ll see how long it takes for that first blast of salt to hit the streets? Once that happens, she’s going to Mr Repasi for KW suspension, ST brakes and an overall service. Spring won’t come soon enough.
I seem to attract the Americans lately. This was one of my fav cars growing up as a kid, parked next to my favorite car of all-time. I never even saw a Porsche of any kind, in-the-flesh, until much later in life, let alone anything remotely close to a GT (2/3/rs/CGT). I grew up wanting a 69 GTO and 55 Chevy; I think because I actually knew people that owned them
The GTO owner was great. He had a lot of stories and a LOT of American muscle stashed away. It was this guy’s turn to get exercised.
