To late on new market but a few very low miles RS out there.
Sorry to burst your bubble but a GT3 is no RS. The RS that you see some using everyday is nuts.
It’s a track car that can be driven on the street. The GT3 is a street car that can go to the track.
I get you like changing gears the GT3RS PDK is better shifting then I am. The RS is about lap times and winning.
Myself I wouldn’t use a GT3RS as a daily driver. The new 2021 Turbo is a different story.
I traded .1 GT3 for RS and at the same time sold my GT4 to a track buddy....missed the manual so much I put myself on the list for the new Spyder and 4L 718 GTS but got nowhere with allocations until 2021
I picked up a 7 speed dogleg Manual AM V12 Vantage S and a 2020 Lotus Evora GT 6 speed manual in the last 4 months.... that’s how much I missed 3 pedals....YMMV
Honestly, i would stick with what you have unless you can swing a trade — 991.2 GT3 for 991.1 RS and KEEP the GT4!

Interested in what you honestly think about the Evora- both the good and the not so good. Is it more Kit-car?
As neither the GT3 nor the GT4 are daily drivers at this stage, it's really a matter of what combination of cars is most fun.
Funny that the idea of a manual Vantage V12 came up in this thread. I'm looking at one to get my manual 'fix' and tick the V12 box.
The nagging uncertainty is whether the particulate filter will take some fun away from the 992 GT3 and RS, as it did from the Speedster. If that happens, the 991.2 RS will remain one of the greats.

That shouldn't be a big concern in the US, as you can always replace the muffler with aftermarket if you want more noise.

I think all of the 991.2s(GT3,Touring, RS) will all remain one of the greats. As much as I do like the Dashboard/Interior updates to the 992 I still prefer the 991 interior. I also like the exterior and the less weight of the 991 although the 992 still looks nice. Plus- the 992 prices are pushing up too much so grabbing a lightly used 991.2 the better grab in my opinion
I’m seriously thinking of selling my Miami Blue RS. Looks amazing in my garage. I grab the keys to my manual 991.2 GT3 way more often. That should tell you everything.
LOL to the “lap times” and “winning” in the post above.

there is a beautiful metallic white 7 speed V12VS where I just bought my Lotus, but a sale is pending...pristine low mile
did you think about the 991.1 RS ?
i would venture it is 99% of the car as a street car (maybe more since no rose-jointed suspension) and 90% track car if driven by a good pilot
honestly, I felt I could drive the plain Jane GT3 faster on track, as the price for an incident seemed less severe
