When I see all the pictures here from the C-GT...the engine, the suspension, the chassis...every piece/part is really "art"..something special.."hand crafted perfection"..

Nothing, really nothing is comparable to the mass and "cheap" production of the 991, panamera etc..even my GT3 is a "beetle" compared to this..although I would never say a 911 is a beetle..but the C-GT is really special.

Soon it will be 10 years old...but look at the design..a piece of art from every angle...and the performance too..with 7:33 at the Ring not even a hand full of cars have beaten that today 7 years later..there was a test on German TV (you'll find it on youtube) where Walter Röhrl tested the GT2RS vs the C-GT..his words were: if the C-GT would have the tires of 2011 it would probably smoke the GT2RS..

I love this car..but I cant afford it now..maybe in the future but we will see.

The sound is even better than the GT3 CUP...cheek at you youtube:
"Porsche Carrera GT: Driftorgie in den Bergen"..you dont need to understand German..just listen to the sound..+ I have never seen somebody driving a C-GT ..of course Tim Schrick does it...great guy

Holly holly holly lord. I am sucker for the CGT. You typed every thought I have of this car in such eloquent form, well done. The way I explain it to my wife when I see one is "imagine revving 5 motorcycles at the same time in an uncompromising beast that abides to your every command". The greatest super car ever made - hopefully one day in my garage!

Even with the 991 out, I still think the Carrera GT is one of the freshest looking cars around. Truly a timeless design. I can't imagine it will ever look dated.

The car is timeless no doubt. It actually still looks like a concept vehicle that one only dreams about but would never be able to own. Sorta of a one off car. Your particular sample is incrediable and perfectly spec'd.
