GTP911 Posted 19February, 2015 Report Share Posted 19February, 2015 In 1999, the GT3 became the first production car to break the 8 minutes mark around the Nurburgring. Porsche's official test-driver Walter Rohrl lapped 'Green Hell' in 7 minutes 56 seconds while piloting the 911 GT3 MK 1. If you’re a 996 GT3 fan the video is pure heaven.

spiller Posted 20February, 2015 Report Share Posted 20February, 2015 I like the GT3 decals along the sides. Not usually a fan of decals and it seems most people hate them on these cars but they suit well in some cases IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully69 Posted 20February, 2015 Report Share Posted 20February, 2015 From my experience in owning a 997.1 gt3 Great car no doubt Driven for 1 year - driven 5000ks No track time Sold on for 20k up Will be missed but I am now chasing an rs or if that fails a 991 gt3 I grow bored too easily - wonder if I ought to have kept it....

Mick Posted 21February, 2015 Author Report Share Posted 21February, 2015 Well it's finally done, just a cyclone between me and the Gt3. Will hopefully pick it up tomorrow can't wait. edgy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have not had both, definitely considered both.. GT3 better track car out of the box, however not as practical as a turbo. Turbo very capable car, add good suspension and tune and you have a track monster. as you said two different cars Well it's finally done, just a cyclone between me and the Gt3. Will hopefully pick it up tomorrow can't wait. Do spill beans... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiller Posted 23February, 2015 Report Share Posted 23February, 2015 Mick sounds like you got a gem. Guards red is my fav. That RS 3.8....very very well priced, perhaps the cheapest one I've seen which is suprising given the current market. If I win the lottery...

It's 7.1 money, never seen a 7.2 below mid to high 200's Weirdest way of advertising a GT3 RS ; ad sounds like a family sedan Cup holders and 4 spkrs , "like who gives a frack" about that sort of thing when buying a GT3RS??? As for "illuminated vanity mirror" , well that says something about the owner Agree , it's too cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgy Posted 24February, 2015 Report Share Posted 24February, 2015 Porsche is probably one of the few used car markets where cheap is actually a turn off for buyers. It's been a while since I've seen any 3.8 RS sell but the last ones were all north of $260k, the last few 7.1's were all advertised at $225k... But hey, it is good to know you can put your coffee somewhere when your balls to the wall and need two hands on the wheel, trust me , you will end up wearing it anyway.... and I'd love to see any woman apply makeup whilst in motion, even if the vanity mirror is illuminated! that's some serious talent if they can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think carsales now uses some software to write ads based on the original description of the car. So they get all the features and dump them into 'sentences' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they get all the features and dump them into 'sentences' I get that , but if you are selling at the high end of the market surely you should make a bit of an effort? It reads like a dopey dealer ad , not someone who actually knows what a GT3RS is. Cupholders , FFS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiller Posted 25February, 2015 Report Share Posted 25February, 2015 I cant stand those carsales template ads. Unfortunately most GT3 owners seem to utilise them...does this say something about their internet knowhow (or lack there of?) Also anyone notice this one has been edited with new pics and an increased price? Was listed a few months ago for 99K or there abouts IIRC http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Porsche-911-2003/SSE-AD-2811083/?Cr=2 there's also this one from Adelaide http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Porsche-911-2003/SSE-AD-3251751/?Cr=6 saw it at the Porsche Club supersprint last month, very clean looking car (no affiliation with the owner) Whatever the car, 100K plus seems to be the theme currently. Not sure the market is there just yet tho? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
