Age is not a relevant point of discussion and bringing that into the spotlight only detracts from the seriousness of your question.
Should you replace your car? You might as well ask about the meaning of life. Or whether coffee is better than tea. You are your own judge.
Or maybe your question wasn't serious to begin with.

OP what is it exactly that you no longer like? The color? The power? Must be a reason for the change. Please tell.

I routinely drive a Huracan Spyder (Giallo Tenerife recently traded for Nero Nemesis Matte), Rosso Corsa 458 Spider, and GT3RS. Ask yourself why you bought it and what you are looking for. All of the cars get a lot of attention. All of them drive differently. They are all excellent cars with different personalities and purposes. I will say if you want to go to dinner and ensure the spot upfront get the Ferrari--also nothing compares to that sound track. If you want to stunt in front of other millennial and post on IG then get the Huracan. If you want a car that you can push hard and will get you the select attention of enthusiasts then keep the 3RS. All different. This is too subjective of a question, particularly on a Porsche forum...

At your age get a Landcruiser and go see the world.

No point spending this kind of $ if you aren't enjoying yourself. If the car isn't speaking to you anymore might as well move on? Otherwise what's the point (since you are seeking advice)
My advice would be to think through and research the next car (especially if you are going Italian) a bit more than the current one. Save yourself the $ and hassle since you are saying you intend to keep the next car for a long time, after having a 3RS for 2 months at 22 I was very indecisive at that age so thankfully I didnt have the means to buy high end cars yet..
3RS is by all accounts an amazing car so make sure you know what you are 1) letting go of and 2) what you are entering into with eyes wide open...
Only you can decide for yourself what is going to tug at your heartstrings/what you'll enjoy more but remember the allure of a shiny new toy can wear off fast as you might be experiencing now

This is exactly why I don't let my kids move up to the RS until they are 25. You know, because of what the research on teen brain development says and all.
[Just kidding, OP. Just follow Sam's advice above and you'll be fine ^^^.]

This decision isn't difficult. I suggest you test drive a Performante and see if you like it better than the RS. If you do, buy it and sell the RS ( likely you will lose your ADM).
I may be in the minority but I think the Performance looks like a squashed bug. Also, when I sat it one it was very uncomfortable and at least for me the sight vision was problematic. One final point, the production of the Performante has ended. Now replaced with the Evo.

I think that if you're questioning owning the car after 2 mo, that's a sign that you shouldn't have the car. I spent a second in the car and knew how much I loved it. Then I drove it, and then I really knew it was right for me, at least to own for a while. Sell it to someone who is going to love and drive it. Buy something that is flashy enough for you. You could always buy another down the road anyways.
