It's like it has no clutch at all.
GT3's are not for the average buyer.
The Carrera is the mass market P Car so they will have a nice soft giving and relaxing clutch.

My wife never liked driving the Turbo because the clutch had zero feel and is a pain to drive on hills.
She drove the GT2 for the first time when we came to pick it up, and absolutely loved the clutch, because it was hard and grabby. It just grabs and goes, unlike this mushy zero feel Turbo clutch, which made her nervous driving in traffic because of the occasional stall.
Hell, even I stalled from time to time in the zero feel Turbo clutch. Never had that problem in BMW's, neither had my wife.
Soft clutch sucks.

I've read about the PASM on the new GT3 "improving" the ride in general but I haven't seen anything about the clutch.
Anyone know the deal with the clutch?? I have a February build GT3. I don't even think a 100 lb clutch would stop me from getting it but I'ld like to tell him something.
