From XKR to Gallardo, GT3RS or 13' Viper?

Personally... I would wait till you do a track event. It might or might not be your thing. If you aren't going to track the car then I wouldn't go with a GT3/RS. They are great cars but truly meant to be tracked to be truly appreciated.
What is your budget? Sounds like you are looking for something more flashy then anything else. I would say a LP550-2 or a GT2 would be a great option.

430 Scuderia, GT2RS, MP4-12C or 4.0RS, everything else will feel slow or soft or heavy or it is unrelilable.
Gallardo=limp mode. 2013 Viper looks promising (and heavy too). XKR-S is a joke as a track day car, the Gold and Platinum DE Cup drovers would cook the transmission, engine and brakes in a few laps.

Actually, I've heard regular XKR's do very well at the track. No brake fade at all. And actually handing it to some 911's...

When ever a XKR (or Benz SL for that matter) is on the track i tend to give them a lot of space.....
