In Europe in the used market there is very little premium to pay for an RS vs GT3 but one seems to get quite a few extra goodies

You saying 991.2 Gt3 and 991.2 GT3RS are fairly flat with each other on resale values

Good catch. Totally forgot about the Carrera T.

The distortion in my Touring's rear window is disappointing.

Have you put Dundon system on your 911R? Would you consider lighter BBS wheel and Lexan rear and side windows or is your objective maintenance original? Thanks

The 991.1 GT3RS USA version is just regular glass. Only the 991.2 RS uses Lighter weight glass.

Also not sure if a 991.2 RS has a rear window defroster as the 991.1 RS does.

991.2 GT3/Touring is not a RS model, so it does not have the lightweight gorilla glass.
