Beautiful car, as usuall from weisssach but sadly out of reach for most mortals.
I was confused why the 1M didn't have a dct option, when the m3 did. I would love to hear the reasons When I was shopping the dct and additional ratio the on the 135 was a major factor. |

I have actually spoken to Peter@Advan in reference to the cost involved converting a 1M to a DCT, but that's another thread topic and not here. |

Feel free to go on.
Tell me why it is my ignorance to mourn the loss of the ultimate driver's car as it turns into yet another magazine numbers car. Every current 996/997 GT3 owner I know won't be getting this one for those reasons.

There's 14 997 GT3 sellers on carsales ATM and 8 RS owners as well. That's a lot of cars considering their scarcity. I suggest a few will have ordered a new one already.

Was duelling with a 997 GT3RS yesterday at Sandown. Second time I have seen these on track. Without denying the superior handling and top-end output, the 1M torque allows it to remain competitive on corner exits when heavily outgunned. Anyway, the driver seemed to loose rear traction quite readily (prior to running off in the sandpit).

all the 997 GT3's WITH A DECENT DRIVER i have encountered have run rings around my 1M and just about everything else at a track. A GT3 with an actual driver, not just a rich bloke in it, is impossible to follow in a BMW, i have only seen a GTR keep up with one.
BUT, the rear wheel drive, 6mt bmw has to be pretty close to being just as much fun. What could be good, is that the new GT3 is unbelievably awesome and the price of 997 GT3's goes down the toilet, please let this happen |

Here's me chasing down a 997 GT3 RS that was totally stripped out and had motons. PCA advanced group.
My car was stock power and stock weight at the time (these days it... isn't ) 944 in the video is LS swapped and gutted-- not slow either!
