Almost in transition from 997S to Gt3
#151
I also would keep my PDK over the Gtr . My Turbo blows it off the map . There's a certain look on the face of a Gtr owner when he's being passed .
He's not accustomed to it often because his car is quite fast .. but no match for an EVT700 . Not even close . Not even in 1st gear and expecially on a roll. It's bye nye, See ya , Adios, Hasta la vista baby.

Larry, just saw this on the GT3 forum. Not sure if it matters to your decision but just so you're fully armed:
#153
I just started reading about PADM and its a very desireable option . Plus when one goes to sell it there will be a distinction .
I may have to spec my own car and keep the PDK . If I am going in deep ... it has to be the right car . With all the Gt3's sitting on lots .. maybe I ought to wait . Maybe I ought to get this option and the noselift and spec it . My first color choice was actually Mexico Blue for the Gt3 if I spec it myself.
Thanks so much for pointing this out.

This could be a dealbreaker .

There is also rumor -def. rumor at this point- that PADM may be available as a retro-fit. Supposedly, Porsche has the basic wiring there as well. Time will tell of course.

Plus you could enjoy the PDK a little, this would give you enough time to see if you really want the GT3 or if you want to keep the PDK...

I thought about trading in my C4S for a 2010 GT3 in White too but with the incentives Porsche has on the 09s and the dealership is giving me $74K for my car with 4K miles is absolutely ridiculous so I decided to keep her for a few more months.
The new GT3 exhaust note is intoxicating...

I personally enjoy the C2S w/PDK. Probably one of my next cars. You can't go wrong with the decisions you're making.

Maybe that's why the GTr owners seem so surprised .

Larry, I thought that you were aware of this or I would have pointed it out, sorry. The lift just became available as well. Black wheels, not until Jan '10, . I want these on my white Nov build!

I really think the four days of waiting and thinking and not seeing a screaming price gave me enough time to cool off and be certain that if I get it --it has to be correct right out of the gate . It also gives me time with my PDK car and eventually to sell it privately.
In the end I wouuld have : 1) driven both 2) paid less, and 3) have the car i want.
I have said this all along --the buyer really does hold all the cards .
