What comments do you usually get on your GT3?

The only time I ever saw a GT3 was while walking down the street and see one fly by next to me. Couldnt stop the driver of course to tell him "that thing is like a rocket".

So I was wondering, what comments do you guys usually get from people?

I get the occasional "thumbs up" from people.

A streetguy panhandling at a freeway offramp wanted to know what the car was, turned his head back and forth admiringly, and wanted to know how fast it goes. I said, "55 mph" and he said, "good answer". He never even asked for money ....

I often get sneak attacks by paparazzi. The other day I was admiring a Subaru WRX STi in my mirror thinking how much I want one, when I saw that the guy was throttling up so he could catch me. He was balancing his cellphone on his steering wheel to snap a pic of the rear of my car. I was disturbed by his lack of safety, bolted off and changed lanes so his target was lost.

Ha! I had similar experiences. Twice I've a different girl driving behind me with their cell camera on the dash shooting the azz of my .2 3. Where I live you might never see a gt3. It is kind of funny as I have recently learned of at least three more in the general area. A lot of thumbs up or high beams from on oncoming traffic as well.

Traded a silver turbo for a black 2011 gt3. Not sure if it is the color, sound, or shape but car gets much more attention than turbo. Funny, because I really think the gt3 is much more conservative and stealthy with the exception of the wing. I did not like the turbo "blingy" wheels, too-busy slots, front end, and weird exhaust tips. The GT3 is much more purposeful and understated. Who knows.
