GT3RS all day. i hate saying it as well, unless you're tracking the car or you really need that extra few HP, I actually think the 997 GT3 (non RS), as well as the RS are far better values right now.

i like the panache of the RS. far more rare, better ressale later, probably near the bottom of their price depreciation curve. wide stance and as you point out , a great deal right now. u can find <3k, 4k mile RS's for probaably 20, 30 back of sticker.

I see that 997.2 GT3 20,25k under sticker in a year, maybe less.
they are sticker and a few back right now. dealers arent doing that out of good will.

saw a 997.gt3 this past week. thought about it. passed. didnt like the steering wheel. like my ladies w wider tush.

Ah Steve,
Voice of reason as always
Same thoughts here...looked at 2 here in Atlanta yesterday and passed.
$125-$130k sticker vs my car (with 2.8k miles) worth, what, $85k ??
didnt like the steering wheel, or wing, front end looks like std 997 and wheels now painted "brake dust"' grey ??

BTW, your Euro 997 GT3 seats look (and feel) great in my 3 !!

Bill

Are you trying to decide? If so the 7.2 GT3 would be a better option as a DD. I thought you weren't that impressed with the 7.2 GT3? Personally I'd go with the old RS, if I also had something like my M3 to use as a DD.
