I am hearing what sounds like a small squeak in the engine bay that cycles in the same frequency as engine RPMs and is not there if I coast in neutral. Any guidance on this or issues with drive belt or accessories making these noises?
No squeaks here. Better get it checked out.

Joining late the conversation as I just got my 997.2 GT3 RS 3 weeks ago.
And guess what, I already tracked it. AMAZING !!!!
I agree with all what has been said. You will like it on the street and you will discover it, love it, adore it on a track !
I used to daily drive a 997 C2S Cab and wanted to replaced it with a 991S. Fortunately, Porsche was late in delivering it and I finally canceled my order to buy this 2010 RS. NO REGRET!
I bought a 04 Escalade for daily drive and potentially tow the RS to the tracks.
I definitely prefer not to daily drive a 911. It is so much a renewed pleasure to remove the cover, seat in the car, start the engine... It is each time like a first time.
I lost this wonderful feeling when I was daily driving my previous Porsche.

And on the track... mamamia ! you have the look, the sound, the grip, the speed. It is just fantastic. And it will be a rare car. Only 1900 manufactured. I will keep it for long, that's sure !
