There will be too much competition in this price range. The car will only really appeal to hard core Porsche guys. Those who let their hearts drift towards Italy will likely pass and buy something else. I love my Porsche. But once you crest the $250K threshold you open up a whole new world of options. I don't doubt that it will be an awesome car. Yet I question its ability to compete in that price range.

Idiotic. Thats why porsche make the GT3RS, for that kind of hardcore driving. I'd be very sorry to see the GT3 become a "little brother".

Badass!!!!! While I see the GT3 as a holy grail of a car, I would love to see a GT2RS. I'd take it over a Scuderia any day. Six speed manual and rear wheel drive!!!!

I don't think a GT2 RS buyer is flipping a coin to decide which to buy...
