No problem! Its been a while since they stopped using the colors. When they did, that was my favorite type of racing. The cars were production cars (ie they needed a certian amount made for sale on the street to enter the car into a race), the Le Mans style starts where drivers had to run and jump into their cars and start 'em up. I wish they had a racing league like that now, one day when I'm rich, I'll make one!!!

Off topic!!! Back to oggling and drooling!!!

Nice trade!

GT3 is the way to go with a Porsche if you arn't planning serious handling mods for the Turbo. Still, the GT3 has a more exciting engine

Best choice imo.
Congrats

Btw. tell me that you are taking it to the track (the real track, with turns :p )

Ahhh, but do you know why Silver was the color? Interestingly, it used to be White until 1934.

Here's the story...

awesome car, what an upgrade from C32! i hope i can have a GT3 some day, it's just an unadultered pure focused sports car. a good alignment, maybe some monoball linkage, RS clutch/flywheel and exhaust would make a killer setup. enjoy your fabulous new car, i'm jealous!

Quarter mile? Should be interesting.
These things are pretty fast man and quick off the line.
On a road course you would have 0 chance, not many street cars would.
