I fail to see the point of the GT3 RS. Last time (997.1) it wasn't faster than the GT3 at all, but remarkably more expensive. I don't know if this has changed by much, but I doubt it. So it's an GTS for me in this comparison. I'd prefer a 'regular' GT3 to both, though.
Best regards, south

It has 15hp over a regular GT3 and a little lighter, so unless you are a professional driver I doubt you will be any quicker in it over the regular GT3. Then what's the point in wasting the money unless you are filthy rich or a snob that needs people to know it's the RS model and not the regular car.

Not an Audi hijack, only an opinion, to me I wouldn't want to forgo the comfort and as either regular car was nearly as quick and given the expense I would probably chose another brand. It could have been many a brand given the figure involved I simply picked the R8 as an example. An American member may very well sub the R8 for a ZR1.
Stop reading meanings into things that aren't there. |

So to Jonmartin's reply I ask once more, do you really have the skill required to benefit from the RS model or is your preference solely driven by snob factor of owning the more exclusive model? |

...and for this reason and this reason alone; BMW would never bring the GTS here...no loyalists like Porsche has. Thats why they never imported the CSL(not bcuz it was too expensive to crash test or import) because BMWAG knows very little Americans would have bought it up....everyone talks big about wanting a CSL but when it comes down to it, people can't afford it. There are people on this forum who can barely afford a Basic M3 but cry and holler that they would buy a CSL or GTS...but in the end when it comes down to putting your money on the table...people freak when it gets to real. Hence why BMW will hardly go big in on anything for BMWNA...and lets not forget those who blame everyone else if they slam on there breaks and their coffee spills and burns them they want someone to pay for it when it was their fault to begin with because they were being an irresponsible driver for talking or texting on the phone whiile driving in heavy traffic!
