Sounds like the 996.2 is the most focused, maybe too much for the road.
It is interesting to hear that they think 997.1 has a significant advantage in performance vs. 996.2, since most here on Rennlist felt the difference between 996.2 and 997.1 is minimal in terms of track performance. But I guess the comment in the article was geared toward the usable performance on the street.

I'm sorry that we never received the 996.1 GT3 in the US - those are always heavily praised (with many reviewers thinking it's the best drive - despite being the slowest).

The front brakes on the 6.1 let it down BADLY especially on-track, I liked how it handled, but I think the .2 was the sharper "knife" ...

Yeah, per my original post, it looks like the reviewer thought the 6.2 was the most hardcore of them all.. narrower body, less refined ride, etc.
What do you expect? It was the closest thing to a Cup car...

Too bad that we never got those in US... silly DOT! At least the difference isn't as major as the 997 chassis (both the 996.2 GT3 and RS are on the same narrow body chassis) so we can always tinker our GT3 w/ seats, cage, suspension, etc, etc. to make it sort of a RS..
