Ok, so I made my purchase today and picked up a gt3. I couldn't be happier, but I have to admit the first time I got on it I was looking for the power button like in my m6 :/
It definitely doesn't have the instant gratification of the z06 but it seems to be multifaceted and ill be learning to drive all over again, with an emphasis on slow in and fast out. Off to streets of willow in my new ride
