Default My 991.2 GT3

Been a good few years since I’ve owned an Impreza, graduating to an M2 then a M3 Competition.

Chopped that in now and got what to me is my dream car. A late 2017 GT3 Clubsport with every conceivable extra specced from new.

Totally different league and I’m very much in love

Not too bad ride wise and certainly gets better with increased speed. Damping is hugely better than the M3 or M2.

Take it out to the Nurburgring, leave it there and just fly over. That’s what these cars are all about . Nice

I haven't logged in for ages. Glad I did now, fantastic car, congrats.
Market for these is still very strong so I assume you paid top dollar but definitely worth it.

Enjoy in good health.

What he meant was: Leave it here, fly over to the Nurburgring, leave me the keys and I'll take it out there for you.

I'll wave my usual delivery charge and even bring it back for you.

Please...

Got a good deal in my opinion especially as it has only done 2600 miles and came from a main Porsche dealership.

Almost back to list price. The second owner paid £35k overs

I tell you what.... drive it over to the Ring and we’ll take it in turns doing laps in it. I’ll let you use my season ticket so you’ll get free laps. I can’t say any fairer than that

Now that's more tempting!

Myself and a few friends are talking of organising a trip to take in both Spa & The Ring next spring so that may well work lol

That's very good. I dip into the GT3 price threads on PH every now and again, I find it difficult to know what the truth is but your experience is a good example.
I'd like to try one but the whole overs thing worries me so I just sit on the sidelines watching. My 991 TTS is a fantastic daily all weather weapon but it's not the last word in driver feedback.

Anyway, hope you enjoy it!

Quite simply you you are not insured on the track, unless it’s a private track day and you have taken out a track day policy
