I'm thinking about selling my 996 in order to buy a 997.1 rs or a .2 non rs.
I'm aware of people's views on both cars and I have driven both. I'm looking for the opinions of people that have made the switch.
It will be a pleasure car with light track duty. About 10 days/year, give or take.
What do you guys think?

Nice car. What were your impressions (relative) among the 3 versions of the GT3?

Great looking car!
I sold my 996 GT3 to get a 997 GT3 RS 4.0. That is a decision I don't regret but I did love the 6 GT3. It was a great car that I never got tired of driving. The only way I would sell your car is if I was buying a 997.2 GT3 RS.

The performance the 6 offers at its price point can't be matched though.
Thanks. Appreciate the advice as well. Unfortunately, neither of those are realistic for me.

Do I regret selling my 6-3? Absolutely ever day I think about it. Is it a better car than my 7-3? Only in one aspect.....on the track in stock for stock form. I have no doubt though if I got rid of that crap *** PASM system and replaced with an analog system (linear spring and some dampers from Lex) then it would shine above the 6. WIth that said, the 7-3 in stock form is not enjoyable on track for an experienced driver with that pain in the **** nanny constantly thinking she knows best over undulating tarmac. Wrong.
The only STOCK car I would get rid of mine for is a 7RS and I'm not going to do that as I think the 7.1 in Carrara White with the modern taco wing is one of the most beautiful cars ever to come out of Stuttgart. I would merely add to the stable at this point. But I'm not in a position to do anything like that right now as I'm building a garage with an attached house.![hiha](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/roflmao.gif)
The 7-3 does however beat the 6-3 in stock form when it comes to driving to coffee on the weekend
