With all of the 'exotics' I blew through, wasted/lost that money and the whole time was thinking about why the hell I sold GT3 (not to mention buying GT3RS)...yep, I'm happy to bend over a little.

It's a lot less than buying more cars I'll be unhappy with.

And that's that
Well done! What's the spec? Can't wait to hear your thoughts.

Thank you. Let me get papers signed and not jinx anything. But needless to say it's optioned the way I like...color could be better, but don't know how that will impact track times

Could be as soon as tomorrow to wrap up, but transport is telling me 3 weeks Will need to find another option (that was Intercity).

Will advise ASAP...

Paying ADM whether morally reprehensible or not may be easier and cheaper in the long run than buying Peppers and Beached Walruses to order new GT at MSRP.

Congrats with your purchase and looking forward to specs.

Agree. Suck it up and enjoy the ride. I can tell you after probably $1M worth of cars in 1.5 years that didn't make me happy, I'm going to be happy as hell to be behind the wheel of a GT3(RS)

I'm glad I tried out other makes and models. Did it cost me a heavy entry fee--yep. But, it's so funny how GT3 was the and remains the ONLY car I regret selling.

Let's get this beast into my garage ASAP and out on the road.

Owned a California, 458 spider and Huracan. Loved them all.

GT3 is the one I can drive everyday, rack up 5000 miles annually without taking a bath on depreciation and take to the movie theater, grocery store and dinner with wife with no worries.

I was thinking we lost you in Lambo Land forever.

Welcome back and thank you for beta-testing $1M worth of cars. Your experience means a lot for me and probably saved me some cash.

LOL. Glad I could help. I saved myself from adding a 488 to the list.

I was lost in LamboFerrariAudiandaFewOthers Land. Glad to be out of it. It was an expensive trip, but my GPS kept going where the hell is that GT3.

I'll do a quick write up on each I owned once I get the RS, but no matter the price point there is NOTHING that tops a GT3 for me...getting the RS this time is the icing the cake I cannot wait to lick.

Yep I recently am having the same experience, just regret selling the RS and now gotta suck it up and pay the extra premium. Outside of a Speciale I will be disappointed in anything but the RS, Is it worth it? compared to the price tag of the others in this range, I think you still are getting a great deal......at least that's what I'm telling myself

Happiness and things that bring it are not to be underestimated. Enjoy the hell out of your RS!

Congrats on the purchase. I paid $50k over for my RS and have no regrets at all. Btw, I PM'ed you a transporter referral who've I used 3 times...he won't make you wait 3 weeks that's for sure. Enjoy the RS!
