it`s amazing how they always manage to improve an already great car and succeed on keeping the GT3`s principles alive
this is a car for men(and tough women)
I really like it!

I drove a fellow Instructors 2004 GT3 with 2nd generation PCCB's at the track and that's why I sold my M3 and bought a Porsche.

Mr. B
I have a few friends with 996 GT3's that I drive on the track with, my C2S has no problem staying with them. The 997 GT3 is a much more capable machine!

I tell myself often that my car should have been the GT3, I unfortunately had some extrinsic reasons for buying a 2nd C2S.

It looks fantastic but I cannot relate to your comments guys since I have never driven anything but base Carrera and Carrera S myself.

Would someone kindly explain what makes the GT3 a car of its own kind as it sounds when reading your comments?

The GT3 is a street legal, track car. You can drive it to work all week and take it to the track on the weekend.

The engine on a 997.1 is a 3.6 Dry Sump that produces 415 hp. It is based on the GT1 block and it doesn't have a RMS problems, it also redlines at 8400 RPM. It comes with a better suspension, and the car is lighter then a C2 or C2S. I have tried to get my C2S as close as possible to a GT3 in performance, but it will never be one.

I think a yellow 2010 GT3 with black wheels would be a good way to go. What is everyone here going to order?

I`d love to hop in a GT3 or TT after my bimmer..

I like the raw thing on the GT3...and the whole athmosphere it produces.

it`s strange,but many BMW guys(especially E46 M3 owners) buy a GT3 if they make the decision to upgrade
