Turbo or GT3, what do you prefer? - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

Top Gear says the 997 GT3 is much more usable on a daily basis than the previous 996 GT3. I think I lean towards the GT3 vs the RS, and I'm not sure why. It might be because I don't track HARD CORE, so that roll cage is of no real use to me. Nor is the even LESS weight.

This is a question I always ask myself.

In my world a year ago I would have said the GT3 but today I would buy the TT.

Why?
A 3 year old daughter who loves the Boxster and would rather leave mom at home than ride in the X5. With the TT we can all go together.

So yes in my house a TT would be the family car.

Another vote for GT3 RS! Orange is cool but I really like the green

I voted for the GT3 based soley on the fact that I would one day like its bumper on the front of my Boxster.

Truthfully, if I had the money I'd buy an Italian with the engine in the proper place.
