I'm here for the enthusiasts, not the snobbery

GT3 is insane. Surprisingly comfortable off the track. Just drove one for the first time last week and it made my GTS seem slow, and it's only about a half second or so slower 0-60. It's light, and the engine only has about 45 more HP, but they get every bit of power possible out of it and the exhaust is so loud it makes your think you're going faster. I would get one if I could get a sunroof in it and the engines didn't blow up that year 2014.....after that I couldn't/wouldn't afford it.

Eagle GT is certainly beautiful, but if it is anything like the Singer 911s, they are WAY out of my price range. You'd be better off finding the older model 911 you want and having a shop fix it to you specs. Plus I think the Singer waiting list is years, as it is the "in" thing for the movie star and Silicon Valley tech guys who live in LA and SF where 911s are a dime a dozen.

I can't afford new ones, so I guess I am not a true Porschephile since I never had a factory tour. Haven't even been to the new US HQ in Atlanta with the track package that is supposedly a great thing to do. Maybe one of these days...

sokogear,

Oh man, you have some catching up to do.

Take Zuffenhausen delivery of some hybrid model. Drive to Zell am Zee (pass by Schüttgut) and then Gmünd. Enjoy Tauern Autobahn views. Pick your way through Germany, take the loger way through Schwarxwald, to Maison Blanche at Le Mans and be careful while there. Drop it off somewhere. Pick it up in Charleston, SC, right there close to Porsche Boulevard. If you insist, you can go to  Atlanta and check the track, but it does not have any history in it. Drive across the continent (avoid Interstates), and find your way across Texas, Marfa included, to Cholame, CA. Take a picture. Send it to your friends with a caption "Little Bastard" (the car, not you, but they will understand).

It is simpler than it seems. It may appear snobbish, but it ain't bragging if you can back it up. You and your own car at those spots.

You could skip Zuffenhausen delivery, but you could bring your current car and do, more or less, all of it with it.

I am not making fun of it. It may be a little project, but I promise you will like it.

While you are doing it, slow down. The life you save might be mine.

In terms of pure driving, I don't think any 911 touches the 718 GT4. The others are faster, but in my limited driving experience, the GT4 is far more fun. If you are just interested in straight line, there are certainly cheaper ways than a GT3. In pretty most most pavement conditions (and drivers), our baby Tesla is going to match a GT3 till well past legal speeds. Now that I am on a track somewhat regularly again, I have lost most of the desire for something fast on the road ... 99.99% of the time which you can't take advantage of anyway. A tossable convertible is in the future plans though.

My husband wants a GT4 but there is a long waiting list. Maybe the next version.
