Keep it??? No way. You’re missing out on center locking wheels, better aero package, and cool looking .2GT3RS decals. And who wants to drive in a car the same color as a booger???? All the cool kids have 997.2GT3/RS

…..BTY my offer still stands…maybe a little higher.

Dont sell it. Hold onto it and wait for the 991 RS. That car is too unique to let it go for a 3.8. IMHO.

Well... I've decided to save the money and keep the car instead. Back in the storage for winter.



One day, I will have a 3.8.

Good call.

The Green GT3 RS is a very unique and special car. A 2010 GT3 RS 3.8 is faster around a racetrack but not significantly faster. The reality is that the performance difference between the 3.6 RS and 3.8 RS is smaller than the difference between highly skilled drivers and average skilled drivers.

Good for you. It's such a nice, classic car.
And good for me since I'm not ready to buy but will be in 1 to 1 1/2 year, maybe it will be back for sale at that time! I'm local too!
Let me know, keep in touch.
Cheers!

I had an orange and a black RS. I think the orange and green cars are long term keepers.

Looks like your car is stored in a public storage unit facility. Hopefully I won't see your unit on the tv episodes "storage wars" or "auction hunters" : ). Mike
