What do you plan on doing with the 458?

Weekend toy? Occasional track use? Something else?

FWIW, I wouldn't bother taking any F car on the track.

that would be very tempting for those that use the GT3 just as a fun weekend car. I would get a used 458 over a new .2 GT3 for that kind of use.

For those of us who track regularly, it has to be the .2 GT3. Ferrari not as good on the track and will fall apart if tracked regularly.

Exactly I wouldn't track a Ferrari, I'm keeping the RS for that. A weekend toy to go to kids sports and stuff. Also just to check that box in life...

I have 991.2 C2S and I love it as a DD but between that and the 991.1 TTS I just don't find these new turbo cars to be thrilling. The sounds are just not the same. So as someone suggested maybe a 458 at these prices could be fun, you think there is a glut of RSs you should see the 458 market.

Solution is simple, just have both!

Here are some shots of my Giallo Modena Speciale. This is one of the best cars that Maranello has produced in the last 15 years.
