I don't imagine that I have near the skill to push that car even close to its limits. But I can't even imagine what it's like to drive that car.:cool:

From what I've heard Porsche's take special skill to drive well because of the rear engine layout and when you factor in that cars power and light weight, its more than a handful for just about anyone out there:crazy:

well, with the DSC off they do :crazy: but yeah, basically the motor hangs out over the rear wheels so all that weight gets whipped around when maneuvering and makes them tail happy.

some might consider that an advantage :eek:
 
my boss has a 2002 Carrera (nothing compared to that GT3) but the thing is mint and only has 17k on it...he keeps saying i can take it out and its only a matter of time before i take him up on his offer and make him regret it :)

Was it not a huge problem with the old turbo porsches? Going around a corner and have the boost kick in. Usually ended up with the car out of control. :blackeye:
 
I know this might sound crazy, but I'm not a big fan of the Carrara GT as far as looks go, but I know the performance is there. Consider how many 911's you could buy, modded, for what ONE GT costs:shrug:
 
the 911 GT3 is cheaper then the 911-turbo..an upgrade to my G would def. be a 911 or a GT3, they are beautiful cars :drool:
gotta start saving! heh

another awesome color combo

Looks wise, those cars are meh to me. Just not a fan. Also considering that they are known for being hard to handle for the "uneducated".
