Cool Had a spirited drive in 997 GT3..

..yesterday. Was lucky to meet a complete petrol head through work who kindly arranged for me to have a go in his car. He handed me the keys from the off and really encouraged me to drive it hard
Wow what an amazing machine it was. Words can't describe what it's like hitting over 8000rpm in one of these.
It wasn't just "up the road and back" either. I had a good half hour on mixed roads - country lanes and straight dual carrageways etc.

Jaw now aching due to too much smiling!

Nick

Stunning, love the wheels and spoiler, looks so much better than the Turbo.

Fantastic.
Shame there's no rear seats though.

A bloke at work has a 997 GT3 RS in bright green. I've dangled the keys of the GTR but he just won't swap

Nice car although the rear spoiler is a complete mess and ruins the look of the car for me.

Love to try one though.

It's a bit strange isn't it, reminds me of a seagull in dive bomb wings folded mode.
