My GT3 has arrived!
http://s201.photobucket.com/albums/aa4/seattle_sun/
Hey guys,
I tried to upload the pics, but kept on getting database error.
Anyway, my car finally got here. Before I bought the car, I was led to believe that transport wouldn't be a problem. However, when trying to get a car from Florida to Seattle, it is a little challenging. Most of the big lines (exotic, intercity, etc) said that it would take a 4-6 weeks! Ended up using Enclosed Vehicle Transport (http://www.enclosedvehicletransport.com/) - great service, but pricey. They have two car trailers, so its super fast and you don't have to worry about the car above you leaking brake fluid. If anyone needs fast transport, these guys are good. BTW, they also broker and the guy I had was from incognitoexpress.com (great service).
Love the way the car is setup. The only things I wouldn't have gotten is the sport chrono, nav, and lighted carbon sills (nice, but a little too much bling for me!). I wasn't so sure on the carbon package, but it is super nice. On one of the photos you can see the extended carbon package includes a carbon piece wrapping around the windshield- super sharp.
Put on a hundred miles today. Wow, what a car. Sorry, but couldn't keep it below 5000. It is so neutral compared to the Carrera and the gear ratios are so much longer. The shifter is like a rifle bolt- direct. Of course I couldn't really tell how the PCCB's are, but they feel like my Pagid yellows on the Carrera- super hard pedal.
Can't wait for my next track day in a couple of weeks! Hope to see some of you guys out there. Thanks for the support on the last post!

Congratulations...
When will you be going to the track?
My GT Silver Car should be arriving at Barrier in the next week or two.
I would enjoy meeting you and running down at Pacific.
Till Then, Enjoy in good health.

They do look pretty cool at night. A soft moonglow like color.
BTW, I took no offense to your comment about the car being optioned heavily and I understood what you were saying.
