Was at Ho Yuen Cafe - a new HK style place over in Marpole and a CTR and ITS show up at the same time. I believe the drivers knew each other. Not pictured was the very sharp looking silver 996 GT3 - I walked up to it just as the owner was getting into the car so I didn't take a shot.
What's the wait like to get one of these? I see them selling "used" way over list right now. How does one get a test drive for one? Do I just have to test drive a FK8 and make a guess on the current cars?

No pics, but when I was down near VGH at various times I spotted an MKIV Supra, SW20 MR2, R32 GTR and an Integra, all JDM and all mint. It was like the late 2000s all over again.

| 100% Defn not mine!!!
But was going home annnnnnnnnnnnnnddddddd I was like hooooooollllllllddddddd uuuuuuppppppppppppp
Seems like my neighbor acquired a new toy, took delivery this week, spec'ed in January. Once he got the call, he needed to confirm allocation within 48 hours~
It was super akward, while I was gawking at his car, his wife came home. Said hi to me and went in and got her husband lolol, I promise it wasn't super creepy, we knew each other, had each other's phone numbers and such since he owns a few cars that I really really really like, so I always hung out/said hi while I walked my dogs and such....
And then he asked if I had sat in the new GT3? I said no... annnnnnnnnd
Only 123KM, so still doing break in, didn't rev pass 7, but mmmyyyy goooooodddddddd, we went for a "short rip", and I ended up getting home a hour late lololol
Told me once it passes break in and we will go for a proper drive!
This is most defn one of those meet your hero, and the hero is even more awesome that you could have imagined!
Honestly Perfect Spec imo...
GT Silver, Carbon Roof, Sports Seats! (Which I admire him for doing, cuz I assume 99% will go for the carbon bucket seats), Carbon Brakes, All carbon options inside and out, extended leather, large fuel tank etc etc etc...
The only mods are the clear euro side markers, full ppf.
Exhaust on order...
This is so close to my dream spec... this is what I had saved in my cmpt~~

The interior is dog shit for a 300k car.. I hope some Tesla model 3 destroys it so I don’t have to see another douche bag beetle on the road.

A bit of an obscure find and I pulled this photo from my dashcam, but I drove by a 1 of 3000ish Tatra T87. We wouldn't have the VW Beetle nor the Porsche 911 without this Tatra. |

This is so close to my dream spec... this is what I had saved in my cmpt~~ | This Porsche is sick!! Kudos to Porsche for listening to its customers in terms of interior design. There are actual buttons and knobs on the console instead of a giant touch screen like Tesla or even Mercedes.
A good balance between going digital with a touch screen and analog with buttons/knobs for the controls.

Porsche 911 GT3 with Touring Package
Was in town for a bit and ran into this guy filling up. Must be OG with that plate, said hi to him and he told me he's owned it since 1994. What a boss.
