It simply costs me too much money. I pick it up in 2 weeks if all goes according to plan

Gorgeous..the best colour on a 997 gen2 GT3 by far.

Makes you realise how lightly we get off with the cost of cars in this country though!!

I don't think the CGT was for sale, it was there just for display purposes as it can't be registered here. I didn't pay RRP, but in general cars are dearer to buy than the UK but cheaper to own i.e. running costs.
