The GT8 does suit its own grill. i really like the look on GT8's smile

So the white car above is £50K less than the others we've seen sell in just a few days. ???

I prefer the purer shape. Bit like a 911R vs a GT3RS smile
Hmmmm not really.

Its like a 991 GT3RS without a rear wing of which there are precisely none.

Indeed they have!!

surely some modification must be made to front aero to re balance the car?

Same for GT8?

I saw it at works a couple of weeks back with all the lower carbon removed.

I couldn't figure out why but now I can see smile

You will be surprised regarding pure racing cars. I friend of mine races in the Lamborghini Blancpain Series. He has 3 Lamborghini GT3 cars (Huracan and Galardo) and none of these have lost any money (despite having been in the armco I don't know how many times).
I think he's been telling you porkies...

this one is 100k down already...

The 991 GT3 RS is a track tool and not really a collectors item. Porsche has produced more than 8000 of them.
I track my GT3 RS regularly and it is a better car after a track day.
8000? really? where is that figure from?

Whenever i track my gt3's they are a worse car after a track day.

What am i doing wrong? biggrin

My pleasure Tim smile

Ive had one on the V12S for a year.




Just had a chat with the UK supplying dealer on my pals behalf (I am more excited than he is for sure) and have been told that his GT8 will go into production 3 weeks from now.

It is SGHS Plus more paint from Q.

How long do they take to complete from that point?

My son wants my GT8 when he's older too (he's only 12 now). It's odd, he's never wanted any of the other cars

My eldest daughter in contrast has no interest in the GT8, she only wanted the DB5. No idea why the appeal works that way
