Default 997.2 GT3 or 997.1 RS...I made my choice (pictures now)

I had the option to purchase an available meteor grey 997.2 GT3 or a 997.1 RS...In the end it was an easy choice, I love the RS. Some of you guys know the car, it previously belonged to ylshih here on rennlist...it took a short detour from CA. to Seattle and 1,400 miles, but I pick it up friday. I'll post more pictures this weekend...GT3RS #2600

What a bonus, I told my wife about the new arrival today when I got home and she just rolled her eyes...If I would have gone with the grey 2010 car, she probably wouldn't have noticed the change (silver to grey no problem, silver to orange, I got some splainin to do) she could completely care less that much about cars...

funny, mine's the same way. in fact, she told me to "go buy the Porsche you're looking at". if it would have been black instead of blue she wouldn't have noticed until next Spring when it wasn't a Cab

enjoy, they are both great cars. it's like when you were a kid and going to get ice cream. what flavor... either way, we're having ice cream!

Congrats on the car - I was considering both options and went the other way so maybe we can compare experiences after a little more time. I see you are in Southlake - I'm in Coppell so we should connect up some time. PM me if you are interested - I'll be out at ECR this weekend breaking in my car also.
