Saw a lovely Carrera T in Miami Blue yesterday. Have red some mixed reviews.Wondered if it would be a worthy change. I gues it will not be as raw as mine. Apart from being a new car with the latest technoligy would it be a worthy replacement. Its about 20-25K to change.

Great to see all the varied mixed replies, thank you.
Regarding comments, I am a driver and do push my car very hard within the limets of A and B roads.My car has been with me for 51/2 years and i have loved every moment. Yes you always feel like a change every now and then. Drove plenty of possible options but i always seen to stick with my GT3.Nothing else i have driving has ticked all the senses which i like in a car. I love Porsche and apart from paying a premium for a 991.2 GT3 manual im stuck.Others car which ive driven with a posibilty , 458 Ferrari , Mclaren 12c and 570S are very fast, but do not give me what i have with my car. I dont mind paddle shift in traffic with the auto option, and when on full chat they are so fast.
But sometimes when im out for a blast i dont want to do a 50 milisecond change i like to enjoy the engine note and feel the car through the gear stick. So much ineraction in the GT3 compared to newer rivals.
Me and the wife are off to the South of france and Italy in June, which should be a great run for the car.
The Carrera T i saw did look lovely, but so do lots of new cars.Everyone has ther different about cars and what they want out of them.The reason they make different vaients of models.
It really is great to hear peoples views.

Pop down to rpm Technik and just drive the CSR it’s a blinding drive and will leave you approx £50k for another toy without adding to your budget
Plus you get to personally spec the car and have it built to your specifications
Ps when are we having a catch up .... still have the turbo
Cheers Ric
Hi Rick

I always fancy a change , but I just love my GT3. Have you drove the CSR, what did you think. What's your spec. Maybe meet up one evening, if weekend are busy.
