i think it is a smart move porsche does - they will put more and more electronics into street cars to make 'regular' drivers better and safer. those who know how to drive of course will not like it.

i just hope gt3 car will not have most of this crap. if it will - well, then 997.2 gt3 rs will become even more expensive on a used car market.
All the indications so far are that the next GT3 we will just be a glorified Carrera S: upgraded 9A1 engine with the same 7 speed manual and PDK as regular 991.

The only reason that I am considering a 991S is the GT3-RS I wanted to order is not being built anymore. Apparently a few months too late on my part. However from what I understand the GT-3 cars may in 2013-2014. Porsche goes through the line and release the next type. Cabs - C4 - C4S - C4S cabs - Targa - Targa C4 - GTS - GTS cab - GTS 4 - Turbo - Turbo cab - Turbo S - Turbo S cab - then the GT cars. So having these styles ready to go and release the GT-3 in 2012 - kind of doubtful IMO.

Think of sticking with the CS then in a few years buy a used 2011 GT3-RS. I am sure there will be some that haven't been abused still available.

Could be true, but even if it is, it will probably run rings around the 997 GT3.
