at the limit, most cars are a handle...thats because its the LIMIT...haha...its up to the driver to take control...some just dont have the ability to take control of the 3 when it gets out of hand because it is such a capable car!
The new GT3 seems more stable than the previous generation, however, it DOES seem to warrent extra care in transitions btw hard brake and throttle or it reacts a bit more harshly than the previous gen...atleast, thats what I felt...

Wow strange I dont see why the boat travel can make a car loose alignmet,I always re align my cars after 2000 kilometers because all the susp components brake in and it is good to check numbers...

I personally don't think the "3" is very hard to drive, but most that get tracked get smacked. The car makes it easy to get way past the point of the average drivers ability. So it makes it very easy for someone who doesn't know how to drive/recover get into trouble before they know it.
I agree with above the most. People think they can buy the ability to drive. Vice Versa. You have to learn to drive and then buy a car that makes you feel like a Pro.
I struggle everyday when I pass my GT3 and want to use it as a DD. I put more mileage on it than any of my other cars. It's as easy to drive as almost any vehicle I have ever owned. If you don't floor the car everytime it handles like a DD perfectly.

). I agree with the others, it is probably just tire pressure, alignment, and bad roads that are your problem.This car is very linear and predictable when setup right. It is a true joy to own/drive and I agree with Juan "I do not see me getting rid of this car".
Just my two cents

I don't know, but it was off. No problem getting it aligned by the dealer before I took delivery of it. My friend that picked up his GT3 just before mine experienced the same thing, his were off too.

No, I was getting a track alignment because I knew exactly where I would be driving this car for the most part. They showed me the before and after specs.
