    Man this looks great. They had a green one at my dealership when k was finalizing my 911. They wanted 75k over, I could have negotiated it down to 50 probably…. I should have taken it and just paid what they asked as much as I’m loving my C4S… given how often I actually drive it would have been fine with the GT3. I. The meantime I’ll enjoy mine 🥹😜

    Very sweet wheels, the cutouts look a lot like the BBS FI-R, then googling a bit it looks like BBS make these wheels for Manthey too, definitely the nicest I’ve seen on a 992

    I have a noob question. If it’s a gt3 touring, so it’s more relaxed and daily driving oriented, why would you start upgrading it with track grade equipment? Why nnot just get the normal gt3 from the start? I know, everyone is free to do whatever with their cars but i’m just curious for the reason behind this.

      Great Q. I’ve been fortunate to have the winged 992 GT3 and a couple of the touring. I think the touring is a beautiful car, far more beautiful than the winged GT3.

      I’ve put 17,000 miles on the touring and use it for track days, European tours and UK runouts. The touring is the same car as the winged one. The only reason it is more usable daily is the lack of attention from a big wing.

      To summarise, I just prefer how the touring looks.

    Looks nice! Mahogany metallic? Do you have any pictures of the wheels prior? I’ve got a Cayenne painted in that color and I’m debating a wheel color change.
