Incoming 997.2 GT3

After having been in an Aston Martin V8 Vantage the last couple of years I decided to get what I almost got two years ago, a 997.2 GT3. I considered the new 991, very impressive, but still felt drawn and compelled to the GT3....

Two years ago I walked from a GT3 and picked up the Vantage, a truly beautiful car, stunning looks and fun to drive. BUT, the lure of the GT3 still beckoned so I tracked one down. I don't pick it up for a couple of weeks so the wait will be looooong.

I'll post some pics when I get it and in the meantime this board has been great reading!

Congrats! Can't wait to see some pics.

My experience with Vantages are they were awesome to drive and look at, but didn't have a whole lot of power.

Nothing really to show yet... the car in appearance is straightforward black on black.

Sweet. You won't regret the purchase. I went from a C4S to a GT3 because I wanted something more raw and inspiring. You will love the ride.
