That's true....I really like GT4s but I don't mind a GT3 at all, specially since I do track the car a lot. It's a personal choice.....

If it has a variant of the 9A2EVO, I'd be in for up to 150k starting. If its a GT3 motor, I'd be in for up to 200k starting.

Perhaps the rumored 4.2L is for the GT3 RS ?

Just buy a gt3?

If I could get one, would I take a gt3 over a (non rs) spyder? That’s tough. Rag top life is hard to beat. And I def don’t want a speedster, even if I could afford one. #buttugly

GT4 RS will have 2 years production. Spyder RS only one. Both will be much, much smaller production than GT3. Indeed, I might suggest that if you don’t already have a strong relationship with your dealer and are not 1 or 2 on the list, you are highly unlikely to get one. Think Speedster numbers….

And if the car makes around 500hp, will you all genuinely care if it is not the GT3 engine?

I have a GT4 now that I’ve modded up some to be pretty fast. I have a GT3 arriving this month. I’m on my dealer’s short list for the 4RS (with an ADM). Question is whether the 4RS will be a choice over the GT3.

If all dealers get one within the two year I may have a shot. That double in volume compared to my civic LE but doesn’t mean it’ll be an easier buy.

That spider RS maybe the collectors gem depending on how many made.

50rs, SC, 4RS, spyder rs, gt1... so like 5-10k numbered cars in the next 2 years not to mention non-numbered gt cars.

Volkswagen's gonna absolutely kill it.

But just keep in mind that what you are hearing from the GT3 is not just the engine. Most of it high pitch sound that everyone likes comes from the centre mount merged exhaust. Put a GT4-like split designed exhaust on a GT3 and, guess what, the car will sound pretty much like a GT4. So, unless the GT4 RS has some kind of merged exhaust design, it is still going to sound similar to a GT4.
