That is a lot of noise in sports mode. Who needs an aftermarket exhaust?

I am really liking the new front end. But I like the back end of 997 Gen 1 for some reason. Oh, and the sound of that exhaust tone is amazing!

It is awesome, but while we're being critical.. The over-sized side mirrors are really ugly compared to 997.1.

The exhaust is an improvement, but still should be a little louder.

+1. The new version seems absolutely incredible. The performance versus a stock tt, as mentioned, would make it a no-brainer if I was out looking.

wow. same ring time as a 996 cup on slicks! thats insane.

i still like my front bumper better but would take the .2's rear end. a sport version of pdk and a 3rd psam setting would make it perfect.

narrator is right on about value aspect compared to a 'loaded' carrera. imo, my friends 7 c4s seems like a rental car compared to mine and its almost the same $. i would say that 7 gt3 is the 1st car p has offer with good value since 944.
