992 - Litchfield do it again.
Joking aside, I’m not sure where the values on those are going at the minute (only down!) so maybe worth waiting

I agree, Tracky. It seems that Porsche built a lot of 991.2 GT3s. More GT3s than Ts, so perhaps the ‘bubble’ will burst, to a degree. I think there will be a GT car in my Porsche ‘biography’ at some point in the future...

My friends were trying to convince me to ditch the lotus and get a gt3 instead of the 992 but it didn’t make sense as I didn’t want to daily something like thatWing Commander wrote: ↑Tue Nov 26, 2019 7:51 pmI agree, Tracky.

^^^ My trouble is, I would daily drive it. I know that some have done so, but I also appreciate that that’s not what it was designed for.

The GT3s have certainly come down in price, the only exception being the GT3 touring which are currently still fetching strong money.Wing Commander wrote: ↑Tue Nov 26, 2019 9:59 pm ^^^ My trouble is, I would daily drive it.

You could drive it once or twice a week to work but it's not something I would suggest as a daily driver.

Sensible advice, Arif.
But then, most would advise me not to spend £10k at Litchfield on upgrading my Carrera T and not to drive over 23k miles in it in my first 19 months!
Out of interest, apart from increased depreciation, what's the main reason for advice to not daily drive a GT3? If it's ride quality and/or refinement/cabin noise, I think I'm pretty much there already in my modified T.
(I would likely swap the Michelin Cup 2s for Pilot Sport 4Ss)

I think you probably are there with your modified T - it was mostly down to ride quality on our pot hole filled British roads.Wing Commander wrote: ↑Wed Nov 27, 2019 1:10 pmSensible advice, Arif.

Saw this on Litchfields Facebook page. Doesn’t look like stock exhaust tips to me.

FYI Smithy TDI do a tuning box for the 991.2 GTS that gives 513 bhp (and a useful hike in torque but don’t remember the number) for less that £500. Thought you would be interested to know
