2007 Gt3

They have been testing it at the Nürburgring for quite some time now.
When compared to the standard 997,its lower in ride height,a prominent double deck rear spoiler and Porsches new Active Suspension Management which is going to make it stiffer.
At the rear a modified version of the current model's 3.8-liter flat six is expected to produce about 400bhp.
Rumors about a dual-clutch transmission but mostly its going to be a modified six-speed manual transmission.

You cannot compare the prices of a year old Gallardo with a New GT3 ?
I am sure a year old GT3 would be available for 90k in that case.
