If you do, you'll be back. Seems to happen a lot here. Grass is not greener.

Speciale much more comfortable than RS, nice sound, much more Alive on the track. Very under-tired, understeers. Steering really weirdly light, transmission not as good as Pdk-s, Ferrari transmission easily confused on track in automatic mode. High redline is really fun though.
RS more confining especially with lwb, but with right exhaust sound is better IMO, and feels like a true race car with an incredible front end. Unbeatable pdk-s, super intuitive and fast
If you like to cruise the streets the speciale is your itch to scratch... if you track, nothing better than RS.
Good luck with sale and purchase. Sell high buy low (easier said than done)... consider a scuderia for less $?

but "Speciale much more comfortable than RS" this i do not agree - bouth are comfortable and without an lack capable of dd.
light steering / front end - also topic on F430 - but both cars feels far away from not right. IMHO more raw than 991RS. F430 steering for example reminded me on a 997.1Cup steering.
sound - yeah... everybody has different preferences... BUT the F V8 and V12 N/A sounds thats goosebumps stuff. already stock. incredible with aftermarket stuff.
do it. change for a 458S. drive it a lot and often. you will recognize fast that you miss the Porsche perfection. and you will change again.
If you drive the 458S just 3.000miles and max. 2-3 trackdays over the year - you could be even more happy with the italian drama queen as with a Porsche.

Jo_ker. Im curious. You had 991GT3RS/M4GTS & 9981 GT4 all within 2016 and sold before any apparent serious mileage/track work...
Why was that out of curiosity?
Sorry for OT

sure macca.
991RS should have worked out already 2015.
didn't.
bought Gt4 + ordered M4GTS (which was not that fun for me at the end)
991RS finally worked out. great car. not that lap time guy. so still a bit too much playstation. too perfect chassis and everything.
now 997.2GT3RS = perfect mix between 991RS and GT4 i see.
still lame if compared to a Caterham after work ride.
$ is limited + no possibility to try out all the cars several hundret/thousand miles and over several weeks as hard as i want to; always have to buy them. you do not get to know them based on a testdrive (which i also not get real possibilities cause young boy) or out of magazines and youtube is too boring. and still so many more cars out there were i want to get my hands on! 675LT, 458(Speciale), Aventador or MurciSV, modded M2, Superformance Cobra,...
hopefully this rush (never
) ends sometimes. its a nice hobby which keeps me positive busy.
