A few more pictures...

Am I the only that thinks the wing is too much? Don't get me wrong. It works great with the overall design but as a DD it really screams - look at me!

For the price, maybe the bank will believe it is a house and give you a 30 year loan (which qualifies for an obama stimulus check!)

Wow really nice pics, thanks for posting them.

Do you know if those wheels are the std titanium or the optional "free" silver? They dont look as dark as some of the other pics Ive seen so Im wondering if they are silver?

(I ask because I have a deposit on a GT3 mk2 and am debating either titanium wheels or black if I dont think the titanium are dark enough! Im hoping these are actually silver...)

Not sure what the options were on the car. Since it is not a US specs model there was no window sticker. The dealer told me it had the air suspension thing to raise it a few inches but other than that I dont know. Maybe if you call them they can tell you - it is Porsche of the village in Cincinnati.

I love the GT3. The new look is fantastic. I wish they had gone ahead and built it with direct injection. Sort of feels like Porsche is holding something back.

Scott by the way, where do you take your car for service? I have mainly been using porsche of the village and think they are great but I am not pissed because they wont give me a loaner (corolla by the way) because my insurance is with progressive and they had issues with them not paying for loaner accidents. I have a good relationship with them but they wont budge on this one - which is an issue because they always keep the car for a couple days. Let me know.

BY the way, they also have a transiberia rally cayenne next to the gt3. cool car too.

Hmm, I've used them for 7 yrs and they've always been great. They always give me a loaner and I have Progressive.

Just checked it out. They are open today! Awesome track car. All it needs is a roll bar and 6 point belts and you are ready to go.

The issue with progressive is new. Apparently a someone with progressive crashed a volvo loaner and progressive wouldnt pay because of some loophole with loaners. Since then I cannot even get a corolla from them.

How reasonable is Farler with prices and is it a good place for some basic turbo mods (eg bigger turbos, pss10 suspension)? I have heard he takes forever...
