Played around with the car configurator a bit. Here's what came out:

997C2S with PDK, Sport-PASM, Bucketseats, PSE, SportChrono Plus: CHF 175k

Now compare this with the announced base price for the GT3: CHF 178k

I know what I would go for if I were to order a new car today....


I don't think you are comparing same things here.

IMO with the GT3 you would need to own another car, whilst the Carrera would have all your needs covered.

Now, if you own several good cars and you want one Porsche for part-time use including tracking then the GT3 is a very good proposition.

It's not where you're going, it's how you get there that counts

"part-time use including tracking" is exactly the usage my current 997 sees, and for that (and me), the comparison works just fine.

However, I certainly agree that the 997C2S covers more bases than the GT3 and that it is more usable as an everyday car.
