Thumbs up GT3 vs. E90 M3

Dear all,

Here are my two rides.

I love them. Had both DMS chipped and got the exhaust and BMC filter; very responsive compare with standard ~~
The M3 got a set of advan RS-D 20" rims and GT3 is waiting for the new forged RZ-DF !! I will also instore the brembo 2pc 380mm rotors on my GT3 for the upcoming track day ~~~~~ oh... can't wait ~~ : )

drnano,

Both quite additive on high-rev.

M3 = easy to drive as a daily car; better low-end torque; can sit 5 ppl; wife can drive it around town

GT3 = more track focus (a lot actually); better cornering;sit lower on ground; is a PORSCHE; wife CAN'T drive it !!

Very nice choice on the Advan RZ-DF wheels! We just custom ordered a 19" setup in Matte Black for a customer's E92 M3. I always thought that the Advan RZ-DF wheels would look great on the Porsches!

Make sure to post some pics when you get them installed!

I have a M3.

It honestly annoys me when the Porsche guys are able to get on the power much quicker during turn.

I drove a 911 on the track and the front end felt much lighter, but there was denying the immense grip that the Porsche offered over the M3.

Great Combo.... Once my kids get into smaller car seats I'm dumping the Slade and getting a 4 door M3... I love that car... Wheels look good on it too.

I will have the RZ-DF instore later next week on the GT3, I choose silver on SY GT3; as i have a set of black advan on the M3. Will post some more pic later on
I think the adv. of GT3 on cornering speed against M3 is 1) car weight
2) lightness in the front axle ( engine location )
But if driving on highway or city road; i personally think M3 has more grant!
