i haven't driven a gt3, but here is my take on this.

recently i upgraded my e46 m3 coilover to ground control 400f/500r spring rate which is suppose to ride really good on the street. My drop is 0.5" all around. ride is good and handling is on rail. mind you I dd my m3 80 miles daily.

sometimes I drive my mdx to work and i just realize, damn the mdx is so comfortable. it doesn't beat me up and I don't get tired as when I drive my m3.

My point is if you want a DD, the m3 is borderline harsh enough. I'm willing to bet the gt3 is much harsher than my setup. Plus the extremely low ground clearance of the gt3 will be a real pain in the ass. I do not think the gt3 is a good DD.

Ok for track and weekend street use, but definitely not DD. I'm young and this already bug me. I can't imagine an older guys would be able to put with this on a daily basic. your body will thank you down the road.
