So long M3 Hello 991

After owning 2 m3's i felt like it was time for a change. I was on the fence about an ESS-625 kit to make the car feel new with the additional HP but didnt want the risk or to throw away my warranty. So there i was just a couple days away from signing paperwork on a 2013 GTR when i decided to go to the Porsche dealer to rule them out.

I went there with the idea that they wouldnt be that great and i was GTR bound but damn i was wrong.

I really dont think that i will miss my M3 all that much. Dont get me wrong the M3 and everything about is what makes it great but this car is completely different so you cant make a fair comparison.

Here is a photo of my new 911 and my old M3

Both nice rides! I was in a similar dilemma but went from a 328ci straight to a 997S skipping the M3, but it was a tough choice!

Welcome! I'm pretty sure I will get a M3 one day, but for now it will be the 911.

Yes...The 991 is purpose built as a drivers car.

Even though the M3 was a good driver it was still a 3 series with add ons & makeup. BMW puts the "M" badge on many accessories & glues them on anything w/tires.

Of all the M's I feel the M3 is the best of the bunch.

Hova00...congrats on your new 991. Very nice!
