Might I suggest, since you can't write a properly structured sentence and then mention the intellect of others:


Does someone have a gun to your head?

Hot new Z, OP.

Congrats.

Nice stable, too.

I did the exact same thing. My '14 GT3 did not arrive until August--after being built in Feb. I traded my '11 GT3RS (after making a good chunk of profit on it) and picked up the ZO7-- haven't looked back since. As I've said in another thread--I have a few other cars to compare it against ( CGT, FGT, LP670SV, 570 Super Trofeo) and I love it. I'm taking it to Road Atlanta in a few weeks--really looking forward to running it!

I love the GT3....couldnt take a Z over 1 but I do get your frustration and time for a change. Best of luck with the new Z.

OP, you obviously have very good taste in the cars you drive; all the way around. Both cars are very cool!

Mine was July delivery. Now have a Z07 plus a few. I like the Z07 better on the streets. Way more drama (sound, manual shifting, looks, gadgets,) etc. Don't now and don't care if its a few seconds slower than a GT3 on the track, if it is at all.

I'll be selling my 2007 C4S soon to buy a new Z06. Can't wait. Been driving 911s for a decade and am ready for a change.

The picture below does not look like shark gray...the camera/lighting makes the color look like some kind of silver pewter blend with the tiniest hint of gold. I LOVE it. Too bad the actual shark gray does not look more like this. This looks AMAZING

I have the same color combo but its been sitting at the factor for 3 weeks waiting for an invoice and to be shipped. I am so pleased to see what my car will ultimately look like. However, I will be tinting my windows and adding clear bra shortly after it arrives.

Me too, although I'm thinking of covering the whole car in Xpel Stealth if I can find someone locally who is competent enough to do it.
