GT3 vs GT3RS

an RS all day long, there is a reason why only these cars really define what an RS is
 
If you are not going to track it you shouldn't be allowed to buy it.
 
The 997.2 GT3RS is the best car I've ever had the pleasure of driving.

To get the best out of it would need skill far in advance of what I possess, so I cannot imagine how it could be possible to better it with the 991 RS.

I think you could easily live with the RS as a semi-daily, but what a waste it would be taking it to tesco squeezed in between a mondeo and a vectra with 'powered by fairy dust' stickers on :roll:
 
Thanks for all your replies. They are much appreciated. :lol:

Got offered a build slot for a RS a week ago. It would have been lizard green. :yahoo:
However, turned it down for the some of the issues raised on this thread and because of other factors. Can't really imagine a RS parked at Tesco or in my car parking space at the factory. Not really me. Just a little too indiscreet for how I would use it.

So will pursue the GT3 route and see what pops up.
 
GT3s aren't exactly discrete, apart perhaps a silver 996 GT3 as I used to own

You were offered and turned down a build slot for probably the last NA GT3 RS? Just wanted to check I read that correctly :eek:

I was 4th on a list for 3 cars. The 3rd person ducked out, hence I moved up by one place.

Funny how things can move so quickly after years of waiting. Just came at the wrong time for me and possibly the wrong car.

So the guy in 5th place got bumped up to 3rd and the deal was done within 5 minutes of me turning the slot down.
