Got a phone call yesterday lunchtime to tell me my GT3 Touring had arrived. Quickly dropped all work jobs and drove down to my dealer to have a first glimpse.

This is the car before any PDI work and the front splitter is to be fitted yet as it is too low for transportation with it fitted.

To say I'm happy is an understatement :D

That looks amazing, congrats.

Might be a stupid question but only asking as I don’t know, what’s the difference between a GT3 Touring and a “normal” GT3?

Basically the same car. Touring Pack removes rear wing. Manual transmission only. Can't spec Alcantara interior or roll cage etc. Still no rear seats.

It would be my choice!

One day... :)

As WingCo says it removed the rear wing and is only available as a manual car. Leather rather than Alcantara for door cards, trim etc and no cage or harnesses. You also loose the GT3 logo on the headrests, in the rear tunnel and on the centre lock wheels (replaced by the Porsche crest). You still get Alcantara roof lining and the other goodies as options exactly the same as the winged version.

It's not going on the road until 1st March, decided that I'd rather have it as an 18 plate car and there is still loads of salt around in Cumbria/South Scotland so it wouldn't be going far in February anyway.
