Looks like all the other GT3s you see on the road.

Oh, it is

I love Porsches, but unless its modified there not much aside from GT2s and GT1s that would make me take a 2nd look.

The brake option is about £8k IIRC..........I know the Continental GT Speed carbon option is £10k

Mate if I win that amount of money there's only a few places I'd head for car wise - and the first would be Santa Agata, believe me.......

Looks alright, nothing special though, as said it's the same as any other GT3!

I wouldn't turn it down, i'm a big Porsche fan but there's better ones out there than that...

Whats or where is Santa Agata?

Incase you don't have Prep H in Europe and you're not sure about the quality of the product, it's this.....
