Me2.

I miss it on my 991.1RS. Not so much on the 997GT3.

I always park at least 1/2 meter from the wall behind to be safe.

Although looking at the performance figure and price, it isn't really fair to throw in the GT3RS, but since this will be the last true 911 maybe it'll be something special to have. The price tag on the GT2RS with options will come really close to the McLaren 720s while the GT2RS basically dominated the green hell, the McLaren 720s is fast as hell and with the design and doors, most people might find the 720s more appealing or more exotic car like.

So if you were to choose between these three cars... what would it be? I personally love the NA GT3RS very much, but the GT2RS is just gonna be so rare and fast... then the exotic 720s... I truly have a hard time picking one out of these three cars...
The only car that isn't fair to be in the list is the 720s. Both the gt2 rs and gt3 rs are track cars that are very usable and fun on the street, but not grand tourers. Even when the lt 720 comes, I still would get a Porsche, lots of reasons, from peace of mind, to dealer support, to the aftermarket availability of solutions (doesn't make a lot of sense while on warranty, but after it runs out it is gold), to price of consumable parts.

Great looking car, silly power but thats pretty much it regarding pros. I would enjoy a 812 much more as a gt car before even thinking on the 720s. There are plenty of fast cars today, 720s is just one more that apparently is much faster than it has any right to be, but a 10 year 997 turbo and less than 10k will put a mclaren crying for help and still leave it dead on reliability and be much more fun to drive.

So plenty of fast cars around, just choose according wallet size and use and what YOU are looking from that car.

Is there some "proof" that radio delete is -18Kg ?

It may have some weight savings but I doubt it will be that much 18Kg? The screen for the backup camera is the same screen for the radio display. So the radio unit by itself probably is anywhere between five to eight pounds? Maybe someone can pitch in.

Drive safe,
