Why are so many GT3s being turned in to dealers with very few miles?

Why are so many GT3s being turned in to dealers with very few miles? Are people finding that the GT3 is not a suitable daily driver? Would anybody who owns or has driven a GT3 please comment. Thanks, Chipper

Can anyone think of a bigger waste than a GT2-3 sitting in bumper to bumper traffic?

Speaking of which, please tell me something Christian, now that you've got your new Porsche (and by the way, congratulations!), are you going to drive it with the same vigour as you drove your last Porsche?

RC VERY well stated! There is an addition factor to consider. Assuming one had the skills to experience what this car can do where would he/she do it? There are a very few tracks in the US that would be able to accomodate what this car is designed to do.

As for it being a daily car, its set up is not conducive to everyday driving unless one is a glutton for punishment. Can anyone think of a bigger waste than a GT2-3 sitting in bumper to bumper traffic? Just the thought makes my left leg and butt hurt.

I have a certain "rhythm" in my driving style, no matter what car I'm driving in. If I can't stick to that "rhythm", I loose concentration. So no matter if I drive... when I drive slow, I not only loose concentration but also start to think about other things, enjoy the surroundings and...very likely make an accident. Not to speak about getting tired. So some people might find my driving style a bit too fast and maybe aggressive (I do not provoke other drivers but some people use the word "aggressive" for "sharp" driving ) but I drove only very powerful cars around 300 HP and substantially more over the past 10 years and never had a critical situation, not to speak about an accident.

But there's really no place on O'ahu to drive a GT3 fast, except on our one and only track.

Nick, this is one reason why my "garage" would look different in Germany than in the US (assuming I had the money to have all my dream cars in my garage ).
Using a GT3 or GT2 as a daily driver in the US doesn't make much sense, driving with it to the theatre, shows or the cinema doesn't make sense either. But I think the GT3 and GT2 are about emotions, not about rational thinking.
