Questions on buying a GT3RS

Hi Guys,
New to this site, as I just sold my 930 (pic attached)and looking into a 07 GT3RS,
Other than the regular PPI etc, is there anything else to watch out for on these cars? ie: rear main seal,
I know Pcars are relatively bulletproof but as new models appear there is always something to watch out for.

Thanks in advance

i've had a little oil leakage in mine and Porsche maintains it wasn't the main seal. they fixed it. other than that drive the crap out of it. you will love it 50 fold more than your old 930.

welcome to teamspeed

Rear main seal and front seal were replaced on mine but other than that, it's been solid! You'll love it when you get it.

welcome to team speed mate. i had the RMS sweat on my car ... they replaced the seal with a 996TT seal and 6 months "touch wood" no leak ... you will TOTALLY love the RS trust me ... ... other than that no other problems have surfaced ... had to get use to the "klak klak klak" single mass flywheel and the smoking at startup ...this is my first Porsche .. best car ive owned by far
