Finally, the car is delivered. The Porsche 911 GT3 has arrived at the dealership.

GT3 Touring Arrives at PC

Last December, my husband ordered it with bombastic specifications.Porsche 911 (991.2) GT3 Touring.

My husband ordered a 911 GT3 Touring Package (without wings).

To understand this GT3, my husband ordered magazines written about the late 991 model and perused reviews of the GT3 Touring.Whenever they deliver the car, I'll be ready!I had always said, "I'm very happy to see this," but the other day I finally got a call that it had arrived at the nearest dealer, and Mr. H, the person in charge, sent me photos and videos of it.

My husband had been a last minute supporter of the exterior of this GT3 Touring.

I might put "PORSCHE" decal on the side, or two stripes vertically like the one on the 911 Turbo S Exclusive.

I've been struggling with this for a long time.In the end, I decided not to put anything up.Yes, he did. He said he would try to ride it as is first and if he changes his mind, he would think about it again then. The other interesting thing is that my husband has been

GT3 Touring without wings is chic. At first glance, one might think, "Is it a Carrera? but the atmosphere is somehow different. And when you take a closer look... "It's a GT3! You can tell it's a GT3. TheThe depth that only those who know what it is will know it is GT3.Yeah.

but after seeing a Carrera Cup car up close at the Okayama International Circuit the other day.

I think it's cool to have wings, too. I like it.I bought a GT3 Touring, but in the end, I ended up wearing the wings!It could be a punchline like "I'm not a fan of this.

and so on.

What to look forward to in GT3

I'm looking forward to everything about GT3, of course, but I'm especially excited about the following points.

Body-colored crayons

I've seen Crayon's Porsche a few times, but not seriously, soWhen you actually see a new crayon car up close, what kind of texture, what kind ofI am very curious.

Also, this time around, GT3 will beBlack logo and window frames, black tail lights, and black satin platinum wheels.So I am very much looking forward to actually seeing the contrast of "crayon x black" in person.

Automatic rotation adjustment during upshift

The 911 GT3 Touring is, of course, a manual transmission, but in the May 2017 issue of the automotive magazine GENROQ, theGear changes in sport driving can be made by keeping the accelerator pedal depressed; the engine adjusts ignition timing instantaneously.I would love to see how smooth it would be to drive. In other words, the system automatically adjusts the rotation when shifting up, and I would love to experience how smooth it makes driving.

PCCB

I am PCCB(Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes)I have yet to drive a car equipped with a "PCCB".In numerous racing series, it has proven to be able to withstand the rigors of the circuit.It's a "brake," he said.

I was thinking, "but I wonder if you can tell much difference from regular brakes when you are just driving around town," but then I read on one of the blogs, "I'm not sure if you can tell the difference from regular brakes.Even an amateur can tell that it is clearly effective. The weight reduction has definitely improved the dynamic performance.It said.

GT3 delivery time

Incidentally, the tires on the GT3 were Michelin, which made my husband very happy. As for the delivery time, it will be from mid-May to the end of May due to the GW holiday and the protection film being applied.

One month to go~. I hope it will be sunny on the day of delivery.

      Thank you very much!
      Please let us take a picture of you and your Boxster with the black and red top side by side.
      I'm really looking forward to it now!

    It's a super car that would fit in well with my commute to work, sigh, it's so wonderful.
    If we simply took the normal GT3's wings, it would seem to lose balance when driving, but I wonder if the Touring has some kind of device that allows it to balance at high speeds without the wings. Even if a similar successor model is released in the future, this may be the last combination of NA and MT, so it is really a valuable one.

    I am personally interested in the feel and durability of the PCCB. I look forward to reading your husband's review in the article.

    My wife rubbed her panamera the other day. She was rubbing almost the same place as Mina's golf the other day (lol).

      Mr. Ishi.
      GT3 Touring, surely it is designed to be fine in the absence of wings.
      I was once given a ride in a GT3 (991.1) by a friend of mine.
      This is a car of another dimension!" I felt, and was impressed, that
      I am very much looking forward to seeing what the next touring will be like.

      >This is a truly valuable car, as it may be the last combination of NA and MT even if there is a similar successor model later on.
      It really is. Because this power, this NA engine, may really be the last car you can drive with a manual transmission.
      Like the 981 Boxster GTS, I hope to be able to take good care of it.
      (I think I will only drive a MT car after I improve my driving skills...)

      >P.S.
      >The other day my wife rubbed her panamera. She was rubbing almost the same place as Mina's golf the other day (lol).

      Wow you are right! I wonder if there is a wife... (LOL)!
      The Panamera is also wide, so you have to be very careful when parking or pulling over.

  3. 718 waiting for delivery

    Nice to meet you, I always enjoy your site. I was driving on the highway from Tokyo to Osaka early last Friday morning when I saw a truck with a GT3 in crayon color! It's not often you see such a vehicle, and I wondered if it was a......no, no way! I was so impressed by the truck, thinking, "What if it is? I was so impressed with the truck. I knew it had a different aura from the regular model! I look forward to your report on the day of delivery!

      Thank you for visiting my blog!

      >I was driving on the highway from Tokyo to Osaka early last Friday morning when I saw a truck carrying a crayon-colored GT3! It's not often you see such a vehicle, and I wondered if it was a GT3?

      Oh yes!!! Our GT3 Touring arrived at the dealer a little earlier, and in fact, they have a GT3 Touring with the same specs that will be delivered around the same time! So I guess it was that GT3...

      As you say, it has a different aura and dignity from the regular model.
      On the day of delivery, I will leave my daughters with my husband and wife and head for the car.
      Thank you for your continued support.

  4. 991-2 GT3 MT

    Nice to meet you I always enjoy looking at your site, I took delivery of my car earlier on April 27. I am very jealous of your car without wings because I want to ride it every day. I have a Jet Black with wings. In my case, there is a little step in the garage and the front is OK with the front lift, but the 997 3.8 GT3RS had no problem, but the 991 has a rear diffuser and it rubs. I think there are some things that can't be helped with this kind of car, but it bothers me every time, so I'm wondering if I should remove it as I've seen in other blogs. I think I'll take it off. Please be careful. Also, the clutch is very light and much quieter than the 997-1GT3. I miss it a little. I will write to you again. Sorry for rambling.

      Mr. 991-2 GT3 MT
      Thank you for visiting my blog!

      >The car was delivered earlier on April 27.
      Oh congratulations!!! A jet black winged GT3, that's so cool!

      >991 rubs because of the rear diffuser.
      I see... you are right! Thank you for your valuable information.
      After all, with newer models, such details also change.

      >And the clutch is very light and much quieter than the 997-1GT3. I miss it a little.
      I see! My husband said, "I think it's a very easy MT to drive, so I'm sure Mina can do it.
      I was listening to the conversation, wondering if that meant that it had become less interesting....

      I'd be happy to learn more from you!
      Thank you for your continued support.

    I am enjoying this blog. Thank you very much. I was wondering if I should comment or not, but decided to take the plunge. Today, a featherless GT3 was delivered to me. I thought it was the same lot as your husband's GT3 while reading your blog. We are now on a 2-day/1-night drive. I followed the track of the loaded ship from Germany to Singapore. We're almost there, we're in Toyohashi. We've been waiting with baited breath to see when the maintenance would be finished and when it would arrive at the dealership. Now I am rummaging for decals on eBay. I bought my first 911 in 1991, an Amazon Green 64 model, and enjoyed it for 10 years. It was the same color as your husband's. I have just graduated from motorcycles with my last being a Cerro. For some reason, we have a lot in common and I read your blog with a sense of affinity. I will be at the Fuji show next month. It will be on Saturday. I hear you will be there with your family of four. We might be able to meet you. (May 18, the day of the festival)

      Thank you for visiting my blog!
      And thank you for your comment!

      Congratulations on the delivery of your GT3 Touring.
      As you say, I bet it's the same lot!
      Since they are from the same lot, Mr. Masumasa's GT3 and our GT3 are brothers... (laughs) I feel an uncanny sense of kinship with them.

      Also, I see you were on the Amazon Green 964!
      And his motorcycle is a Cerro...my husband and I have so many things in common (our tastes are so similar) that I would love to talk to him about it.

      So you'll be at Fuji in June, on a Saturday!
      We will be there both Saturday and Sunday (I will be at the Porsche Driving School on Saturday morning, so my husband and two daughters will be at the track).

      If you see a family that looks like them, we'd love to hear from you!
      Thank you for your continued support.
