I personally would rather have the gt3rs over the gt2 .... I’m so over turbo cars just add boost to make hp all the while adding lag. (All turbo cars have lag)
The engine in the 3rs is gonna be the last of its kind, it’s so incredible and I really never said while driving that the car is lacking power. I think some MAGAZINES got 10.9 1/4 since when is a 10 second car slow?
also this is my first NA engine in a long time I’m probably gonna change my mind in 6 months and go back on the turbo train...

Speaking of sounds, still trying to familiarize myself with those of the 2RS.
Do any owners have an actuator type sound coming from under the engine after shutting the car off?
It almost sounds like the exhaust valves are flipping but that's not it cause they don't move when it does it.
It happens almost immediately after I shut off the car, and then does it a few more times over the next few minutes.
Even if I don't start the car, if I open the door which turns on the electrics, when I close the door it will do it a few times over the next few minutes.
Anyone else have this and/or have any idea what it is?
It was not present in my other 991 GT cars.
Thanks

Not true. I've experienced no lag in my Carrera T. And I've driven the 2RS and there's no lag. Porsche has done an amazing job with these newest turbo-charged animals. Not knocking you for your GT3 RS preference (to each his own) but to make a sweeping statement like you did is just false. Plus, no way you've driven all turbo cars, so it's kinda silly to say something like that.

Thanks for the reply.
I have to say that the lack of feedback and support from other rl 2RS owners is disappointing.
Most love to post pics of their cars and wait for compliments but seem wholly uninterested in sharing ownership information and help.
Must be because of all the sexing and whatnot.

Clearly your happy with your 3RS and that’s great but I absolutely wanted more power. Heck, I spent 6K on a full Suntek Ultra PPF on the 3RS and I thought that was going to be the car but it didn’t have enough power for me. I wanted hair on fire, ***** to the wall fast………….ergo 2RS.

I agree, the 2RS is incredibly fast and it sounds amazing, but the AMG GTR with V8 engine & twin turbo sounds so much better and wins the sound category. I own both cars and hands down AMG knows how to build amazing sounding turbos. Porsche should take a note and fix the sound on the turbo engines of 991.2 cars. They need an intervention. Mark

@redyps, beautiful pictures; thanks for sharing. My wife and I lived in SF for 4 years and we loved every minute of it. We visit SF a couple of times a year...............envious, we would love to be able to drive the Pacific coast highway in our 2RS with it's breathe taking views.
