2 agonizing months later, i found my GT3

unlike some folks, i dont really like the chase part so much, ie the negotiations, the money dance, the dme reports, service history checks, ect. i'd rather just find my perfect car and be done with it sooner than later.

i went in looking for a GT3.1, switched to .2, then switched to .1 RS, then switched back to .1 GT3. no RS for being too track ready and not .2 because i couldnt justify the 30k difference for a slightly better version.

my criteria was simple. i was looking for a GT3 with street driving in mind with just 1-2 track days a year to hone my skills and to be a better driver on the streets.

this being a street car, the types of options the car had to have were a high priority. must haves were full leather, nav, and no sport buckets. i was even willing to scrifice on exterior color to have the right options.

white and silver were my first choice but was willing to accept just about any color except black.

put a deposite down today. i will post pics and full details later once i get the paperwork done. its full leather, nav, and almost 2k miles

I used the same criteria when doing the "chase-dance"....
Options were the selling point. Ended with black as I already had 2 silver cars in my driveway and my 997 Cab was black, so was prepped for the work!!

Welcome to the 3!!
