Finally got the GT3! :)

Well I can not put into words the excitement I feel right now. Just got back from purchasing an 04 Gt3 with 9k miles on it. It is black on black with a couple minor options(just the way I wanted it). The car used to have cermaic brakes but the owner changed them out for porsche motorsport cup brakes up front. I will be doing a lot of track days and also will be racing it in PCA, SCCA, NASA so next week it goes in for the first stages of track set up. This car is absolutely amazing though. The power is endless and the handling is just so damn percise. Coming from a 400hp 944 turbo and having driven other 911s(mostly 993s) on the track, I am just BLOWN away by the GT3. I will post a review after the first track day but for now all I can say is WOW!!!! I am excited to be a part of the club now Thank you to all of you who put up with my newbie questions about the GT3! I really appreciate all the help!!! PICS TO COME TOMORROW

Welcome to the club. 9000 miles, if you need to change tires, 315's fit perfectly in the rear.... Just a thought.

I know the feeling. Had my GT3 for 4 months and it still amazes me. You own one of the finest cars ever built. Mine is black also. Get a few coats of Zaino on the car, followed by P21S or Pinnacle.

Congrats !
