Having just bought a 996 GT2 I am so impressed with the car that I just cannot see the GT3 bettering it considering the money involved.

Anyway, I have a 10k deposit for a may delivery next year and I'm going to cancel it. There's no problem with getting my money back, but I'd prefer to introduce someone else to take my place as I don't want my dealer to feel I've messed him around.

I'm not looking for a single penny on top, just someone to take my place.

Are you interested in joining the Lincs Porsche Club Gary?

Phillip's taking over as regional organiser, and we're trying to convert it from a bunch of people doing synchronised flower arranging to something a bit more exciting.

Might be best to hold on until it gets near to being spec'd up.

1. You may yet change your mind.

2. There could be a lot more interest, and even a premium, next March if you can offer someone a May build GT3, to their own spec., in time for Summer '07.

"Savage" but not quick if you get wheelspin in the dry in 3rd gear!!I think the gt2 is awesome as well(i couldnt live with one after the initial blast however). I do get surprised that the cayman boys(it has got enough power,great handling,chassis,brakes,balance etc)dont aggressively question a statement like you have made...all the the things they love about the Cayman are not found in the GT2..

you do realise your car is still up for sale in the classifieds ?

might want to take it down if you've had a change of heart or are you having a cheecky plug, in which case carry on
