The 991.2 GT3 is being made to compete against turbocharged / large displacement competition from McLaren, Ferrari, BMW, Mercedes, etc. (including Corvette and Viper), not the 991.1 RS

I agree. As AP says the latest GT car is always the best. I don't doubt that. No need for a thread debating that.

Now is the time for the .2 991 Gt3. It is the latest and greatest. The .2 991 RS will obviously be even better & faster and then the 992 GT3 will no doubt out perform all the 991s.

In the turbo variety the upcoming Gt2/RS will be king. No car will be able to beat it on the track with a ring time below 7.00.

Maybe. At best they will be neck and neck. I expect the porsche will outplay them.

I'm in favor of rebranding the next RS as a 991.3 GT3 to save us from "an RS is an RS..." WHATEVER that is apart from reaching for a few things in the parts bin and slapping a sticker on its butt to save weight. Lol
