Ah, speaking of forgiveness, did your old man beat you fricken senseless when heard you bent the car? I would have pounded you into paste, but that's just me.

I don't know him or anyone else on this board but when it's all said and done at the end of the day as long as the check clears and the money is good....well that's all that matters. If I sold exotics I wouldn't care to whom
I'm selling to as long as it sells or in this case gets rented.

If only Ferdinand Porsche were still alive today I wonder if he'd care who is driving his cars.

Hey guys, don't be too harsh on ai91. He is just asking a question.

My opinion is that any Porsche is too powerful for a stick shift learner. Start with a lower hp car and work your way up. Good luck.

Whoever rented the GT3 signed an agreement that they would be the only driver and/or that no one under 25 would drive the car.

If this really happened (which I doubt) ...... that person could be liable for the damage to the GT3. If that's the case I would get these off the internet!

I think you should heed to your own words. You started the thread off by talking about wrecking a $100k+ Porsche and then ended the same post with possibly buying a turbo. When I realized that you were a teenager it started to sound to me like some one was trying to show off how easy it is for himself to get such expensive and exotic machines.
But more importantly, it worries me to see some one so young glorify an accident like that. It reminds me of the guy that took his dad's M5, filled with 3 of his friends, onto a private runway in Florida and ended up hitting a tree while airborn. They all died of course.
Some poeple might call this BS and I don't really care if you have the means or not. But you could have saved yourself a lot of hassle and probably have had a much more helpful thread if you stated your question just a little different.

Screw the turbo, get the GT2.

I'm sure you will learn to drive it with time.

What happened is that he is an inexperienced driver period. We cannot teach driving over the internet.

If he wanted more info like he said - well HELLO welcome to the world of internet forums and google. I am sure it is less costly and more informative than crashing a GT3 on the highway. Unless you are going to be a Crash Test Dummy when you grow up - I think having your parents invest in a few driving classes will pay off in aces for you.
