The 911 GT3 is a car that enjoys color. We first saw her in blue, a splendid, rich blue, sky blue by my window right now. It’s a delight because the GT3 could easily be seen as a serious car. It’s meant to go fast, and who would have thought that a normal Porsche 911 isn’t fast enough for very serious drivers? Porsche offers the silver GT3 for these people.
