I used to own a 997.1 GT3 with 4K miles + GMG bypass. I miss that car every day. My '18 M4, while a nice car for me, *pales* in comparison to the dry sump, flat 6 911 experience.
You're essentially burning $$$$s going back to the F8X and that's just depreciation alone. A 997 GT3 is like a steel Rolex Submariner. You're really just parking money. Iconic.
But hey, if you don't fit, you must acquit.
Enjoy.
