I love the new GT3, but at £135,000 and £2000 VED, that's very, very poor value imo.
My 718 CS VED is £220, and provides me with all the fun I need.

Pinned to my computer researching VIN numbers and brake master cylinders as I am.. saw your post above.
I hesitated at mentioning gearboxes, it's a bit like actors saying the name of the Scottish play, but I think it is more likely to stay manual only, target market ethos and all that. It is not logical as Dr Spock would say for a so called track oriented car but neither is the limited suspension adjustment. The USA is the prime "four on the floor market" and PCNA don't deny warranty claims for modifications so we sit here with less choice all round. Maybe they will even get round fixing the gearbox weakness...
Maybe they will change their minds on spring rates and stiffen the fronts which at 50N/mm are so much softer than the rears (80N/mm) that they don't even need helper /tender springs. The X73 available on non-GT 981 has 30 and 47; the ratio front/rear GT4 is 1:1.78 v 1:1:57. They seem to have taken the GT3 spring rates and used them on the GT4.
