On to a GT3

I sold my e90 about 3 months ago but I actually had been looking for a GT3 for a couple months before that, it took me about 6 months to find the right one. Not really a direct competitor of M3/M4 but I had longed to get back into a P-car for the last few years.

Nice .2...that's the exact car I'd replace my m3 with if I could afford it.

You mean not going to find one under 130k? I've seen used 991 GT3's priced higher than a new one.

Congrats! I see you opted out of the PCCB's. I like the contrast of the calipers and centerlock.

Mine is a 997.2, I wanted a manual tranny. I did briefly look at 991 GT3s and
yes, there are some asking more for used ones than dealers want for new cars.

And thanks for all the kind words.

The 997.2 is the one to own as far as I'm concerned, but prices of those have gone up as well. Enjoy it in good health.

You would be hard pressed to find a 997.2 for under $100k. My buddy bought one two years ago, it is now worth more than what he paid for it. They are a hot commodity, for the manual transmission alone.

Yup, the 997.2's are the the keepers.
