Thanks to all for the feedback so far and all the amazing comparisons to cars that live mainly on our walls as posters or screen desktops.

I'm hoping the 997.2 RS prices will come back down to earth in the future to make it possible to try what is sounding more and more like a legend.

I'm also looking forward to more comparisons.

Please keep sharing your R experiences too, BusDriver.

Thank you. In the coming weeks I will try to convey an honest impression of the car to this thread.

Congratulations!! 911R looks great!

BTW, that Toyota 2000 GT is a pretty cool car too - is it yours?

Is the stripes based off a Porsche green like Signal or Viper?

What an inspirational thread. I appreciate all the side stories and the side benefit I never expected was so much praise for the one Porsche that I do happen to actually own!

That SCRS that Suitcase shared photos of is a mind bender. Wow...
