good for you rick Beautiful car
When am I going to see your newly "facelifted" NSX? I predict it's going to make a hard comeback!

Well I can tell you on the "regular" GT3, I see no adjustments for the huge spoiler so that thing is fixed. Not sure on the "RS" model so may want to check with those owners. Although I have not touched the car's mechanical adjustments I'm pretty sure you can adjust the ride height, camber, etc....this car is like a race car from the factory so having those adjustments is the norm for Porsche. Again I'm not really sure since this is my first Porsche....hehe

Drove it to SF today for a nice commute since I had some errands and this car is just a blast on the highway. I had the "Sport" mode on the whole time and I love to hear the engine sound in 6th gear when I mash the throttle. The exhaust note is just perfect when it comes alive and immediately goes away when you get off the gas. It's hard to explain but almost like the sound of VTEC in the s2000 but the only difference is you can summon the sound at any moment just be depressing the gas. Does not matter the rev or RPM since it pulls in almost every year once you get up to speed.
Traffic was pretty light around 10 am this morning so rolled into Inner Richmond around 11 am. The bumpy area of 19th was not so pleasant as the car literally gets sucked into every pothole and climbs out. The chassis is super firm and I only had it in the normal setting. You really can feel the texture of the road with this car as the tires "communicate" everything to you. I forgot my camera or I would have snapped some shots of the car near the Golden Gate
One negative thing I noted about this car is the fuel economy or moreso the range it can go on one tank. I musta been kind of leadfooted since I only got about 250 miles on this tank....damn!
