The RS 4.0 simply is a roadlegal race car which delivers the ultimate racing experience/feeling..little to no noise reduction so that you hear all the mechanical noises,the loud rattling flywheel and the tires etc. The 458 on the other hand is a very fast exotic that does all that with less excitement and obvious effort...the 4.0 RS is a car for men that like to work hard and feel everything precisely.

I think we all know about the compromises living with the 3.8RS. I had to pick a buddy up from manhattan on my way to the race track. Painful experience. I'm curious about how the motor compares, power delivery between the two etc. Any mention of that?

I agree myself, Golden crust and another GT3 client met him at goodwood last year, very nice guy.

OK I will be there if it’s a nice day. Mine was always due at the end of July, I can't remember the build week, but that is the way Porsche schedule cars for production I think. Don't get too twitchy I am sure all will be well, I heard they have used all the best engines already maybe you will get a 3.8 in yours

The 458 is faster in the straight line and around the track, they also say that the 458 is perfectly combining track capability with everyday driving qualities,whereas the RS 4.0 is stiff and loud and less enjoyable for normal cruising.
