Not so sure it's the C63's big brother, more like a 3rd cousin or something.

Awesome ride...congrats!

Agreed with others, the prices could have been left out. Something tells me you may drive off the lot with the sticker still attached (and taking it down maybe after 2 weeks or so).

However, having the phenominal list of options was an excellent read.

For those who don't know, there are hundreds of options on these things unlike our MB's. Props for the custom color.

Enjoy it. Let's see a post of it side-by-side your C63 when they unite.

Awesome! I assume he posted it because he thought that we're all can enthusiasts, but apparently, some here are just haters. I notice that the haters are Johnny-come-lately's too.

I'm interested in what special color was ordered too!

That is a very special car! Though, I am shocked and appalled of the very lengthy list of options, some of those options should be included on a car of this caliber, to add $50k in options on a car, or more than a third of its base price is simply undigestible, but nevertheless, congrats and enjoy that little monster.

Btw a much different thing is what Taylor did when he introduced his New TT. Which he never listed every single option and final price he got it for btw

YES I'm a SPAM hater

my opinion is worth less because I'm new to your precious forums? really?



Edit: for reasons unrelated to this thread, I have discovered that apparently my opinion really is of almost no value because I am new to the board. To quite Dean Martin, ain't that a kick in the head?



that's awesome.

Nice buy, congrats. Who cares if this isn't a porsche thread I'm still glad to hear about it. You have a C63, and you post on this thread, makes sense to me.

What do you mean, that’s the BEST part about getting a Porsche... You get to fully customize it and make it truly unique (even when its stock!) Sure it sucks that you have to pay for each individually but its a Porsche so you're going to spend money on it....

I am actually happy he posted pricing, I would be very curious to know about that stuff... Its not like its some random dude who just posted pictures of his Porsche also, he has a C63 and has been a member and wanted to share it with us that’s all... I don’t see a problem here (except for the HATERS)

Allow me to
Who is disagreeing with anybody? Its more the inane comments than disagreeing. It just comes off as a jealous rant.

So, here's some answers:

Prices weren't posted on purpose to reflect the actual total for the car. The were posted because I'm a lazy *******, and I just copied and pasted it from the final email confirmation I got from the dealer that order is in (thus order codes are there also.) That's not what I paid for the car and if you add it all up piece by piece its a different total than the $166K at the bottom.

Color is an old BMW color called Cosmos Black Metallic that was on the M3 in the mid-late 1990's and early 2000's. I fell in love with that specific color of black when I was younger. I wanted an black/red scheme throughout the entire car. The interior even has deviated red stitching in the seats, red seat belts, red guages, etc. Brake calipers are guards red, and the logo on the rear deck is painted guards red. Rims are also custom painted GT3 rims colored in Cosmos Black Metallic.

Most of the customization is in the interior as you can see. I wanted the carbon fiber, alcantra, and leather where I wanted it how I wanted it.

The GOOD thing about Porsche is they will let you do exactly what you want, how you want it. MB won't let you do that in the U.S. I tried several times to custom order. My order is in for this car, deposit paid. I'm picking the car up at the factory and driving it around Europe for a month on vacation. I'm doing Euro delivery with it. Then, I fly home and she'll meet me here in Atlanta a few weeks later. So, she'll get broken in on the Autobahn, and the first service will be at the Porsche factory.

We're all car enthusiasts right? Does the brand matter? I mean this is a whole different level of car (beyond talking price) than a C63 or really anything MB makes outside of the Back Series. If you've ever driven a GT3, you'd know exactly what I"m talking about. There aren't a lot of production cars that can keep up with a GT3 around the track.

My C63 is a daily driver once the GT3 shows up. Granted, it has turned into a daily driver since I got it and my Tacoma has been sitting in the garage since Feb., but now the C63 will be the dedicated to and from work car.

Since I'm keeping my C63 now and not trading it for something else, I'm gonna drop her off next week for Kleeemann K2 upgrade.

Congrats man, the 997.2 GT3 is sounds incredible. I think people on this forum just aren't used to how things are posted on Porsche forums, it's perfectly reasonable on those forums to list all the options and prices, as it educates other potential buyers as it's one of the first questions to be asked if that stuff is not included. This mainly stems from the incredible customizability of P-cars (though I agree the options are ridiculously priced).

I for one, am glad you included the options list and prices and I'll be looking forward to seeing pics of the final product as I'm thinking about a '10 GT3 myself.
