Gorgeous! Awesome to see another 6speeder in La Jolla! Once you get her properly broken in we should meet up. I've been dying to take a ride in one of these! =)

Mike new or used? If new, did you have to pay a premium over MSRP?

Of course, your only going to Willow to watch other non Porsche's run around the track. You never would track your car and lose any warranty. Right?

New, and at MSRP. I was lucky.

I would NEVER violate Porsche's no-tracking policy by actually tracking a GT3. That would be stupid -- Porsche doesn’t make cars that can be tracked these days. I will drive to the track, in a GT3, lose some fillings on the way, only to watch.
