true. but 400k house means >> cost of house : cost of cars = 4:1...a bit nuts! dont ya think? thats like everyone in a $1M house owning a ferrari.

and you dont want to know what 400,000 will get you in NYC...well, nothing really. maybe a 200 SF studio.

Congrats on the new ride - looks exactly like my old one except I had the ceramic brakes.

It's probably one of the few raw sports cars left that can still be streetable in somewhat comfort. There is no words to describe the GT3 at WOT for sure - especially in sport mode. Just be careful since the car's wonderful handling can make you push the car beyond it's limits really easy. I almost got carried away a few times coming back from Portland.

Congrats on the GT-3! That is an awesome car. I hope to own one someday as well. You have the best of both worlds!

Nice GT3, the ultimate Porsche from intensity standpoint. And the house is nice too, being somewhere desirable to live and work.
