the most different things about the RS vs the GT3:
1) click clack paddles
2) crazy amounts of gravel shooting from wheel wells
3) way more tire so steering and braking and turning all a different grip/effort required
4) having zero trunk is an adjustment
5) the wing is ~3X the size/ surface area
6) hot radiator air

Allow me to answer your question with a question. Do you think a professional racer cares what their car looks like at the end of a race, or whether it was turbo or NA, or had rear wheel steering or not? The answer is no. They only care about being the fastest and winning. The RS is the fastest track-focused street car that you can reasonably buy. Its sole purpose is as a dedicated track weapon. The aero is there for a purpose and it clearly works. Not sure why one would own the car if that's not your ethos.
Not trying to be harsh but honestly this car is about time at the track and making lasting memories. Patina should be the least of your concerns.

Is it possible to order Tribute exterior color wheels and decals if you have a 2025 allocation?

Could certainly replicate easily in the aftermarket (decals and painting the wheels, though repainting Mag wheels is more complicated)

Don't get me wrong, I love the fact that Porsche builds them. But a stripped, lightweight GT3 track version would be a better choice for most track drivers. Or even a 718 Clubsport with factory safety systems. I say this as a certified PCA DE instructor who has worked with many drivers over twenty years.
