Anybody seen the yellow Porsche GT3 in Puyallup????
I have seen a yellow GT3 rolling around the South hill area and once heading west on the 512. It has a huge rear wing (ricer style) and ground effects. It also has a rear x bar in it.
Anyway, I wanted to run him, but couldn't due to traffic. What do they have stock and does anyone know anything about this car particullarly?

You can't be serious............ Your pulling my leg arent you?
I thought they had like 380hp? I'm totally blown away.
Can anyone else chime in and call BS or validate this. I'm completely floored!

Very nice.............
Well, the porsche looks nice and it really threw me off when i saw it. From the sound of it, I need to be worried about GTI's not GT3's.
My wife is a huge VW fanatic. She currently has a 2000 Jetta with rims (just a 2.0), but she had a 1969 bug which she fully restored from the ground up. She sold it and now she wants an R32. She cracks me up........ The R32 is a nice car though.

I'd be a little leary of a real GT3 if I saw one. I wonder if I can take one?

no but im usally around there and tacoma. But my car has been down for 5 weeks, cause the idiots who are building my exhaust mani and talking way to long Hopefully i get it this week so i cam make it to the track and try for 120+ mph traps
This is my car, so if you see me run me, no one ever wants to run cause they all think its slow

I'll keep an eye out, but as you know, there are lots of them rolling around! Keep us posted on what kind of track times you get!!

I actually saw that guy in the Porsche up by the Best Buy when I was dropping my brother off at work. The gigantic spoiler definitely catches your eye. I thought it was awesome and tried to find him to talk to him after I dropped my bro off but had no luck. Glad to hear there are some fellow Puyallup people on the site though

Hey QuickGTi18t, that's a very impressive car you have there. My friend has a 20th GTI and it's stock except for "Revo stage 1" tuning or something.. He claims that just that will make his car do 13s, and he sucks at driving to boot. Do you know anything about those tunes?
