I have read officially the GT3 997.2 911 is FASTER in a drag race than the 997.1 911 Turbo from 0 - 200 KM/H. That is astonishing.

It is also much more comfortable in the street that the 997.1 GT3, due to better suspension components ( some from the 997 GT2 also) and the dynamic engine mounts.

Seriously, go test drive one. There is a huge difference between the 997.1 and 997.2 GT3. You'll understand then.

BTW, I sold my 2008 M3 DCT which had the RD Sport 4.6 stroker, dymags, and other stuff to buy my 2010 GT3 and could not be happier. I wouldn't have done it for a 997.1 GT3 though.
