I've had some people ask me about the rules of import. And what I've been told is that a car has to be 25 years old to be imported to the U.S. without to much hassle. The number is supposably 15 years for the Canadian market. But take it with a grain of salt. I did a bit of investigation on how to get my 4.0 to the US, but gave up pretty quick!

There was a Rennlister who had a pretty blue one in Nevada (I think street legal but restricted mileage).

Interested to hear difference in the feel of the two cars...it's not much on paper but porsche has always been good at enhancing a bit here and a bit there out of an already great product to make big gains.

no sorry in the UK viv.
its on track where you notice it spiller. in fact the RS is a bit more of a pig on the road. really tramline more with the changes in suspension and geo components so its more figidity and more of a handful. nightmare with tram lines from lorries, rough surfaces and big cambers.
I drove my car and the RS back to back at a few tracks as well as the Nurburgring....its just does things that 10-15% better. its revs/picks up that bit quicker than normal GT3 with the lighter flywheel, direction change is a bit quicker and you feel the weight movement at the rear a bit less. engine has a little bit more grunt with the additional ram air spoiler at the rear. its just that complete package and I JUST LOVE THEM!
my mates RS has PCCBs so awesome under the brakes and better than my steels.
here they are together at Bedford Autodrome (Jonathan Palmers place):

Couldnt agree more, such a nice looking car. They have aged well, im convicned that people who think they're ugly have their eyes closed or cant see properly to begin with!
