Voted GT3RS. A real track-car is naturally aspirated, high-revving and loud!

However, if 993 Carrera RS would have been an option, it would have been a tough choice, gotta say. Had a go with a Club Sport this summer, and my god was it fun! 300hp makes a lot in a car that weighs 1270kg.

GT3 or RS it doesn't matter. I voted for GT3 because the difference between the RS and the standard isn't enough to justify the $ difference if you are looking for a track toy.

Only 50 people in the world have the capability to honestly handle a gt2 or gt2rs on a race track and Don't take this wrong TS'rs....We aren't one of them. Turbo's and tracks are meant for the Top Pro's only. Turbo's and tracks = death to car or driver with the slightest of mistakes. I happened to be at the track in 07 when Patrick Long took the new gt2 around Miller Motorsports for the first time and he got out and told Porsche North America that this car shouldn't be sold to the general public.

My years on the racetrack taught me many things. Mostly that I can improve every second I spend on the track. It doesn't matter Miata or GT3RSR you will NEVER stop learning.

You will never get everything out of a gt3 on a racetrack. Every lap you run the rest of your life will be improved over the last. 997 gt3's are in the $90's plus or minus 10k and they are fvcking insane fun. That's the only way to fly on your Pole

^^^ Very very true
But around the track the GT3RS does feel better than GT3... just a little
Is it worth 15 odd Ks? I donno

sorry I didn't read all posts. I do know my Scud is about 2 seconds a mile faster on most tracks over my RS but I smile less in it. Translating to 4-5 seconds for most road courses in our neck of the woods.

I'd take a 997.2 GT3 in Mexico Blue and be a happy man for a long time.
