No, I sold the car and everything that went with it; the new owner has yet to do anything with it.

Because the GT3 is a dedicated track car straight from porsche. If you want a cab, you have the options with a C2/s and C4/S as we all know

The added weight, more drag, less rigidity and aerodynamics, convertibles are far from track cars despite the manufacturers who do make some supercars as a "targa" and so on, they work around it and compensate. SO i guess they could, but just defeats the purpose of the GT3 name!

Yea hmm, been two months or maybe a little more already, wow

I just miss the RWD, raw track feel.. Although this turbo isnt exactly "comfortable" or luxorious, and my AWD spins its rears like RWD lol, i do like it alot. Im just in love with the GT3!!

Front looks like a RUF car.

Or is it my imagination? Very RT12, if memory serves
