I was going to sell the '04 to help pay for the '07. As great as the '07 RS may be, the '04 GT3 has some unique appeal in its suspension and handling, in my opinion. So, I'm not selling it.

Not me, where do you think a guy like me with more money then brains got all that money? That lawsuit I had against Home Depot for chopping my own leg off while testing a chain-saw 8 years ago paid off BIG. Only in America can a dumb bastard like me get paid for his own stupidity.

I used to think it was ridiculous to own 2 almost identical toys, until I noticed I have several identical rifles in the safe.

Those that can do and don't need to justify it. Those that can't, can still dream. Then there is the all important third group who just whine and cry, unable to take any pleasure in someone else's good fortune. For those unfortunate souls ("..."), fill in the appropriate advice. Something kind of course.

Geeeezzzz, it's not just money. I wish I could have a 959. It's all relative.

930 the GT2 is a different animal all together. I dont think anyone will say anything but give you praise.
Thats the only way I would have a GT2 is to have a GT3 first THEN a GT2

Sheer lunacy on my part but I thought the 3 would make a great daily driver and the RS would make a great track car. I thought the RS a bit flashy for every day use, which is why I got the 3 in a subtle color. Also, RS with the light flywheel feels quite different from the 3. Otherwise, I'm just another idiot and guilty as charged by several of you.

Logic doesn't apply when purchasing these cars; to apply logic to a person's GT3 buying decision is, illogical...
