Any regrets on RS options or the car itself ?

Peachboy, buy the RS before I call Hans and buy it myself 
Seriously though, the GT3 is an amazing car, but I do wish sometimes that I had sprung for the RS. I lust after the wide body and the big wing. The RS really isn't worth it in objective terms, but if we were making decisions using objective data, we'd all be driving Z06's...

Exactly my sentiments. Figuring that he owns an RS and has an av like that he shouldn't mind anyone pissing on his car. Insanity anyone?

I just traded in my GT3 on a new RS. My dealer traded for a car and I bought it at msrp.
It is the best 911 I have ever driven...While I am at work, I look forward to driving it the next day, it is just wonderful to throw around.
If you have a chance at acquiring an RS, you must. It is simply sensational, no ifs ands or buts.

I have had my RS since June and it is unbelievable. I would suggest making the necessary suspension adjustment (camber, etc.), it makes a world of difference. I have raced Porsches for 9 years and this is the best car I could ever imagine that is also street legal. In fact, David Murray and Joken Tartak (both pro drivers) said it is the one car that really impressed them. At this point in their career, not a lot makes an impression. Anyway, it totaly rocks...buy it!
My only complaint is the level of "pucker factor" when driving 8/10th on the track. It is a lot different consequence than putting a scratch on a 30K racecar. That is the only reason I am selling mine. I ned something that I don't have to worry as much about. If I had the coin, I would never get rid of it...ever.
Lastly, did you hear the the GT3RS is the EVO car of the year? It beat out the 430, etc. Not bad.

A bit early to give concrete comparisons...its been terrible weather since I bought it...but I think there will be very little criticism from a driving standpoint...it loves to be revved (even though I can't go to 8400 rpm right now), and the handling is superlative.
I have no doubt it will achieve the same keeper status as the others.
