Default which one of these GT3 shall i buy 08RS or 10 GT3

Hi all after selling my 6GT3 last year decided time to get back in a car - seen many threads on mk1 RS v .2Gt3 but seen the two below what do you reckon assuming pricing negotiable on both, mostly street driving with a few track days thrown in.

first one 08RS in silver on for 118K

or lovely 10Gt3 in meteor grey but loaded with options was 155K now at 129K but will try and negiotiate even further.

leaning to the 08RS but really tempted by 10Gt3.

thanks

$129 for a 2010? There is a guy on here selling his meteor grey 10 for $102. Granted it isn't optioned as well, but that is quite a big price differential.

May I suggest my car if you want a beast for track duty.... see here...
https://rennlist.com/forums/for-sale...he-street.html

As dialed an RS as you will find... for less than 118K.. it hasn't been abused, nor was it a track "*****". And it will outperform the 2010 GT3 on the track. But it won't like being a daily driver, as it prefers to run!

And if you want a pure street car for daily duty... that 2010 GT3 is a good one.... price seems a bit on the high side. I think the guy aero997c2s is referring to is "10gt3"... he has a photo of it in his avatar. super clean car. serious deal at $102K.

if u track, get laguna dude's car.
if you want garage queen, get .1 RS
if you drive on street get 2010 GT3.
very simple decision. all good cars.

still got the 964?

the Sliver RS is a beauty and for 110k you would be in the business.

the Grey 2010 GT3 is way over priced and the yellow gauges are gawdy.

If you are going to part with 110-120k look into 2010 GT3 for 105-115k on used market.

yep still have the 964 Cup - took it out on skyline today in fact - lovely day !!

like lagunas car but will use more for street !! so something bit more tame !! but was tempted by the 08RS - was also thinking the grey GT3 overpriced but may try for 120K - but then again if cars around for 105-115 mark . whats the average going rate for the 07/08s? thinking around 80k?

The Silver/Black RS is one of a kind....at 110 would be my 1st choice
The Green RS is Green (need I say more) best color for RS, the setup is a bonus and the price is Good as well.
The 10 GT3 looks really good but not so keen on the yellow dials, belts....and it is not an RS.

For street use - definitely buy DDGT3DD '10 GT3 for 100K. No question.

07 08 are more than 80's. i would say at least 90's for a good one.
