2013 gtr

I picked her up a few days ago, car seems a lot more responsive than my 10 and handling also improved. I havent got much seat time yet but will try to drive more this weekend. Here're some pics from my iPhone (sorry for the poor quality).

Great colour!
Interested in your opinion from 2010 - 2013. Thinking about doing the same swap sometime soon...

For sure John, just let me know when you are in town and we'll go for a drive up in Palomar Mts.

Hehe... I changed cars so much and it will be too much work to change my screen name each time. Your car is INSANE Scott (read it from nagtroc.com). Congrats

I like the car more than my 2010. Throttle response is much improved and the car felt faster with better handling. I only have 250 miles and have not use the LC yet but I will soon. Will write more as I log more seat time.

Very nice congrats! I'm between gun metallic or white like yours. Are the front fascia and lower body pieces that run the perimeter of the car painted or carbon fiber? I haven't had the chance to check one out in person (no dealers around here keep them in stock) and have wondered about that

So do you think you'll prefer your 997TT or the new GTR?

Thanks Jman,
Ours has a Switzer P800+ build so I'm not expecting much in terms of power...lol. Hopefully the factory handling and extras are worth the upgrade!

Similar to P-car Fan, how do you like it compared to the 997TT? Performance vs. daily drivability.

I love white but gun metal is a nice color too. The front fascia is painted gloss dark gray. All the 13GTR in SoCal dealers are asking $10K and some in the $30K range over MSRP! They are crazy!!! LOL...

I like both cars, my 997TT is tuned and it's a 6spd so two entirely different animals. The GTR is so easy to drive, it handles better than my TT but sometime, I just want to row through gears and the TT fits the bill perfectly.

Nice, Switzer P800 is a monster... What yr is your GTR? The reason I got the 13 is that I dont want to mess with the ECU tune just as yet but getting exhaust for it now... The GTR is a bit rougher than the TT for DD but each offers a different style of driving. I love them both.

The P800 GTR is a 2009. Still haven't driven it hard since the internals and updates...just waiting for the snow to melt!
I can understand the hesitation on tuning a brand new car, but bolt ons can only get you so far without engine calibration to maximize efficiency..
After a while, we all want MORE!
