Waste of money, do a search and you'll get allot of info.

 

Not typically desired by gt3 owners. Waste of dough as stated above. Most don't like the ugly wart atop the dash either, me included. It can sometimes hurt the sale more if it has it, especially with Full Leather.

The sport button is there regardless of the SC option.

 

Generally speaking, a car without sport chrono is difficult to sell. I don't care for the wart either, and I don't even know how to use it, but dealers want the wart there.

 

I don't think GT3 buyers care about the wart, just my opinion based on what I think GT3 buyers are looking for. Sport Chrono has much more value and function in the other models but in the GT3 it's pretty meaningless.

 

That's just the case in our market. It's a dealer issue more than a specific GT3 buyer issue.

 

People here buying Gt3's could care less about the wart-b/c they know it does absolutely nothing-unless you have slipped a turbo on there with overboost!

 

I would only buy one with SC, but that is because I know they are hard to sell without in many cases.I really depends on the buyer. Dealer will want SC and some buyers will for sure.

 

Why would you only buy a GT3 with Sport Chrono, what does it give you that you would have to have.

 

i went looking for one without sc

 

Just talked to local dealer in a very large South Florida market and he said most Gt3's here DONT want it.

 

I'll be pretty straight forward on this one. A gt3/RS without Sport Chrono does NOTHING to affect resale, NOTHING, not a single thing nada! Whomever told this is wrong.

In fact having the sport chrono option actually inhibits some sales. It does nothing for the car and is ugly to boot, yet they charge you for this. I will never order my gt3/RS with it, never. I would likely never buy one with it either. Gosh, I hope I was clear.

 

You were very clear !! "Gosh", I had no idea people were so involved and passionate about an option on a car. I hope I didn't upset you with my preference. I actually like the look of it and use it when at the track. It is functional you know, not just something perched on top of the dash. At least you and I will never be looking to buy the same car. Peace and love , Peace and love

 

Really, you use it at the track? I mean at my home track, PBIR, to click that annoying stalk is so counterintuitive (had it on my Cayman S). I've probably done hundreds of laps there now in my GT3 and not having sports chrono hasnt cost me any time or functionality. Having a dedicated lap timer would seem to be a slightly better solution. I actually ordered my GT3 without the annoying wart and b/c functionally it did NOTHING.

 

1) It's a gt3 we're talking about and passion is synonymous with the car.

2) You did not upset me with your preference. You upset me when you falsely stated that SC is needed for any decent residual and further that dealers will want this option.

3) You like it, that's all that matters. Its usefulness, although, minimal at best, is subjective.

4) Right, we likely will never look at the same cars. Peace, love, happiness, good will to all, etc..
