Bass Junky Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 And he knows that if I get behind the wheel of a Porsche that all hell would break loose, so I haven't had the offer yet. Besides, I can't afford to sign on that line that says "You break, You Pay" Wanna sponser me??

Snowman Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 mesh if you really want an R34 you can have mine. Pristine condition. Never raced. Anyways.... I have to say of all the cars spoken about the ones I give the most credence to is the Porsche GT3. I was never that much of a Porsche fan cause I'd taken both a Boxster S and a Carrera 4 for a spin and thought they were nothing special. I would never consider buying one of these cars. Then this year I did the Dutton Rally. There was a GT2 and some 996 turbo's that kicked some ass in places - but the GT3's were just the most alround amazing packages considering they are like that straight out of the box. It's now number 1 on my list of desired cars because you could have a lot of fun with one - not just keep it in the garage.

Bass Junky Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 I dunno about that Snowman.... I've been in a GT2 and GT3 and I reckon that GT2 blitzes the GT3. But that was from a grunt point of view only. There's something about a G-Force induced grin that I just can't go by....

Snowman Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 Yeah as I said take them both around phillip island or say over an 800m sprint and the GT2 would just blow you away. But take them both for a run through the Reefton Spur or up The Great Alpine Road and see who wins. My point was that under certain circumstances the GT2 would just kill all but the GT3 would be awesome for everything.

Bass Junky Posted October 11, 2004 Share Posted October 11, 2004 Yeah true. But there's no snails on the GT3. Gotta have the whistle. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/53036-opinions-is-this-an-old-mans-car/page/4/#findComment-1045567 Share on other sites More sharing options...
meshmesh Posted October 11, 2004 Author Share Posted October 11, 2004 snowwy & bass, the GT2 is twice as much as a GT3? right? Regardless, whilst you two sit there biyatching over the GT2 & GT3, I'll be pondering your a$$'s with a GT.. *cough* carrera GT That is. EDIT: That's if money is no object ofcourse, and we are just talking about a wishlist.

INASNT Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 In PCOTY 2004 the csl lapped winton in the exact same time/driver as the gallardo. Doesent mean the CSL is a better car than the GT3 just because i is quicker around 1 track Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/53036-opinions-is-this-an-old-mans-car/page/4/#findComment-1046553 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass Junky Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 Yeah but you've got to remember, the CSL comes standard with Semi Comp Rubber. The GT3 does not. They were testing standard cars against each other. Slap some Semi Comps on the GT3 and watch it drive off.
