GT3 & Porsche Newbie

As of St. Patrick's day I am a GT3 and Porsche newbie. My thanks to everyone on this forum for their posts that helped guide my decision. I am not new to high performance sports cars but I have little Porsche experience (914-6 in early 1970's). Thanks also to Kevin M who tried to save me money, in vain of course. I look forward to participating in this forum and going to events to meet other members. cheers...VSE Chuck (now GT3 Chuck)


p.s. I know it looks like fasteddies!

Sweet car man. Now I'm jealous of both you and Ed. You couldn't have picked a better p-car.

Congrats again Chuck!! The GT3 is beautiful in white, even though I love black Chuck came by this morning and we went for a little drive.. huge difference in handling over 996 cab for sure!

Some pics..

Don't worry clear side markers are on the way

Way to go, Chuck. I obviously like the white ones too and it seems there are a few on the boards. Mine will be here on Tuesday and can't wait. Thanks for posting the pics. It should hold me over til my car arrives. Hopefully the break-in goes by quickly...

Congrats Nelson! Especially, on your tasteful selection of color. Your GT3 will be everything you hope it will be and a whole bunch more...I haven't slept for 3 days. Does that tell you anything?...chuck

That is a sweet ride! I was debating between a white GT3 or a silver TT. Kev talked me into the TT, but now I'm not sure I made the right choice.

I look forward to checking out your ride if the three of us meet up on Monday.
