If the 996 gt3 didn't scare me so much, I'd be in. But, 997 gt3 at least has the safety net of PASM.
Not a sales pitch, but no reason to be scared. The 996 GT3 is incredibly communicative; it doesn't bite, really. Even in a car with driver aids, you shouldn't really be "engaging" them anyway. Yes, leave them on, but don't rely on them to drive the car for you.
The 997.1 has the aids but they can sometimes be intrusive. The 997.2 is better as they have pushed back the threshold a bit, so there is less chance of an unwanted intervention.
Yes, by all means go for the 997 GT3, but do it for the right reasons: It's a better rounded car; it's less raw and possibly more pleasant to live with on a day to day basis, but don't do it for the driver's aids. There is something special about the 996 GT3 however...
The 996 GT3 section is full of posts by guys that have sold their GT3's, regretted it, and purchased another (or the same one back).
The 996 and 997.1 GT3's are very close performance-wise. The gap widens as you move to the 997.2 and, of course, the 991 generation, but those are a lot of money and the limits are waaaay up there.
True, but I have my gt4 for a raw car. I'm hoping for a 997 gt3 as a daily driver. I've read too many scary reviews about the back end biting. I'm not one to rely on electronics entirely but it's peace of mind to have them.
