Humans always want what they can't have.

Since the car has no back seats anyway, there's nothing wrong w/ adding the 1/2 cage even if one does not track.. that's just extra safety there.. !! (I guess what I meant to say is, it is not like he has the compromise something (the rear seats, in this case) even though he does not have to, just for the look..)
Plenty more to smack you head on inside the car now.

He doesn't have to "make a point" to you, or anyone else. You buy a quarter million dollar car for yourself. You buy it for any reason you damn well please, or no reason at all.

lol, to continue the analogy of Porsche owners critiquing top of the line Porsche owners: Like the business class passenger looking at the few in first class 7 foot beds with disdain. Of course, in first class, they are looking out the window at the un marked Gulfstream jet with contempt. A biz prof once asked the class, why are large corporate private jets unmarked? The initial students' answer was security. He asserted that is not true, the real reason is (choose a company, IBM, Kelloggs, Ford, etc) stock holders would be pissed off sitting on their delayed commercial first class seat as a beautiful private jet with the company's logo smoothly taxied on by.
To me, I hope the buyer enjoys his new car with health, and if all that means is looking at it in the garage, so be it! (as long as its taken care of....)

LOL I cant believe this thread is 3 pages long.
I am the owner of the GT2RS Hi.
The roll bar is a GMG RSR bar. I was hit from behind in september 2010 while at a stop in my 07 997tt. the 95 suburban hit me going 40mph. I was extremely fortunate. I wanted the new car to have a bit more protection. Maybe its me being paranoid, but paranoia has served me well in my military business, so I am rolling with it.
GMG recommended the yellow color based on the cars colors. They were right and I am glad I took their advice. Before you accuse GMG of up selling the bar buy doing it in yellow. They did not charge for the yellow. If you dont like it sorry. I dont like modern art - to each his own.
I do not have any track experience so I am not sure this is the right car to play with. I had dinner with Andreas P from Porsche a few weeks ago. He reminded me that I have a limited run production car. If I break it I can not replace it. The kind of put it in perspective. If I decide to play on a track, it will be in something cheaper, that I can afford to replace if I break
Bottom line folks I bought the car for me and not you. Sorry if that offends

It is only a 1/2 cage.. everything is behind your seats.. you can safely run it without helmet and harness.. when you have the front cage (full cage), then the concerns for no helmet during street driving is realistic.
