Thanks for the video

No bloody goose bumps mate? .... not like the 458. Well, it certainly has the horrible interior color combo to suit his shirt lol.

GT3 and GT3 RS with the high rev engines gives certainly more goose bumps. A turbo engine never does. It doesn t matter how much horse power it has.

I'd like the GT2 goodies "Stiffer, lighter??" on a 3RS.

ohh wait, they are introducing that LE soon..

I wonder if it will just be a parts bin LE like the Speedster.
i would not have a problem with that on an RS, also because the CF fenders and stuff are not options on the 3RS..

Looks as if he had his Cayman-R shirt on to test the GT2 RS. maybe he was doing a twofer that day!

458 is no doubt a lust-worthy car. Seen several in person and just monumentally beautiful and technologically advanced. And the wail at redline is ethereal. But currently a 458 will cost more than a 2RS and arguably is not as dependable. Nor would I be comfortable taking a 458 grocery shopping. The RS, well, I do it now sometimes

The choice between these two is down to simple personal preference for those fortunate enough to be able to have the choice. Can't make a "bad" choice. Two very awesome cars.

I think they are a let down when you see them parked. Maybe because I've seen them only in black and red. Kinda like an Evora to me. I like the non wing look, but they just don't look that exciting to me parked between the Astons and Lambo's. Just my 0.02c...
