Are you saying the 911 is not a race car?

That baby is absolutely ferocious and so is the one in your profile pic. I just prefer open ones. I worded it the wrong way. My bad.

I am a fan of ~30% tint.

Light tint (30% or lighter) would be good. Anything darker would admittedly look off on a GT3.

If it's a subtle tint, not too dark, than it enhances the look of the GT3.

There is a difference between a Race Car, and a car you race.
A Race Car is developed as such from day one, and has no other purpose.
A car you race is anything else, that you RACE. [Flame Suit ON] So no, a 911 is NOT a Race car.

OP: tint it really light like 50% all around, it will give you the looks benefit, as well as the comfort/interior saving benefit, and still not look Ghetto.

I'm not really a fan of tint and whilst trying to put my bias aside, I still think that tinted windows won't look right on the GT3. Sort of mildly "tacky". Sorry I don't mean to disappoint the pro-tint lobby. So I agree with drdrilz.

Thanks guys, still on the fence I dont track it.

Once again though the famous "its a race car" UGH .the GT3 like the 430 Scud is a STREET CAR that is track capable, anyone who owns one and deludes themselves into thinking they are driving a race car is fuc*in dreaming. A race car gets trailered to the track and is not street legal.

A good example is a friend of Mine Roberto who raced the Challenge series for several years and always finished top 3, he purchased a 430 Scud and has since sold it explaining to me that for the street it felt awful and for the track he felt is wasn't good when coming out of the Challenge car, to each his own.

The GT3's purpose is to be a precise driving tool on track and street.

Chrome can look nice on a black car too, but not on a GT3. A light tint on your black GT3 would look just fine. It's just personal preference.
